(1) The size of the insurer as measured by its assets, capital and surplus, reserves, premium writings, insurance in force and other appropriate criteria;
(2) The extent to which the insurer's business is diversified among the several lines of insurance;
(3) The number and size of risks insured in each line of business;
(4) The extent of the geographical dispersion of the insurer's insured risks;
(5) The nature and extent of the insurer's reinsurance program;
(6) The quality, diversification and liquidity of the insurer's investment portfolio;
(7) The recent past and projected future trend in the size of the insurer's investment portfolio;
