On May 19, the Arizona governor signed HB 2010 to amend certain sections of the Arizona revised statutes relating to the Department of Insurance and Financial Institutions. Amendments make changes to several licensing provisions, including the length of time a license remains active and licensure renewal requirements. The Act provides that on or before June 30 of each year, a licensee may renew each license without investigation by paying prescribed fees. Other revisions amend accounting practices and record retention requirements for mortgage brokers, mortgage bankers, and commercial mortgage bankers, among others. HB 2010 is effective 90 days after enactment.
