credit insurance policy or program under which the financial
institution enrolls or performs other administrative services,
or both, to enable individuals to purchase insurance coverage
under the group credit insurance policy sold by a licensed
producer in compliance with Section 155.56. A financial
institution that performs enrollment or other administrative
services, or both, with respect to its group credit insurance
policies or programs shall be deemed to be in compliance with
