Ann. § 40-222b, that the loss experience of the company, when reviewed in conjunction with the kinds and nature of risks insured, the financial condition of the company and its ownership or the ratio of the annual premium volume in proportion to the company’s policyholders surplus creates a condition that would make further assumption of risks hazardous to the insuring public.
