Cevap

He must receive explicit written consent from a state insurance commissioner or regulatory official.
18 U.S.C. 1033 strictly prohibits any individual who has been convicted of a criminal felony involving dishonesty or a breach of trust from participating in the business of insurance. However, Section 1033(e) provides a specific exception: the individual may participate if they obtain written consent from an insurance regulatory official, which is typically the state insurance commissioner. This is commonly referred to as a 1033 waiver.

The statute bars individuals with felony convictions involving dishonesty or breach of trust (like embezzlement) from engaging in the insurance business.
