Article L370-7 of the French Insurance Code

The transfer of a portfolio of contracts referred to in article L. 370-6 is subject to the prior agreement of the members and policyholders. For each contract, this agreement takes the form of:

1° A decision submitted to the general meeting when the contract is taken out by an association;

2° An agreement from the subscriber referred to in 1° of Article L. 143-1 and the beneficiaries, employees or, where applicable, their representatives, in the case of a contract taken out by an employer or group of employers.

In order to obtain the agreement referred to in the first paragraph, the transferring institution for occupational retirement provision or supplementary occupational retirement fund provides the members and beneficiaries concerned and, where applicable, their representatives, with information on the conditions of the transfer.

A Conseil d’Etat decree specifies the conditions for application of this article.
