(2) For the purposes of this Part, a body corporate is associated with another body corporate if the two bodies corporate are related to each other and: (a) the first‑mentioned body corporate is a general insurer or authorised NOHC; or (b) either of those bodies corporate is, or has directors who are, accustomed or under an obligation, whether formal or informal, to act in accordance with the directions, instructions or wishes of the other body corporate or of its directors; and references in this Part to a body corporate having been associated with another body corporate shall be construed accordingly.
