(b) If the superintendent finds after notice and opportunity to be heard that any domestic controlled insurer or any policyholder thereof has suffered any loss or damage because of the wilful violation of this article, or of any regulation or order promulgated hereunder, by any person within the insurer's holding company system, he may request the attorney general to maintain a civil action in the name of the people of the state or intervene in an action brought by or on behalf of the insurer or policyholder for the recovery of compensatory damages for the benefit of the insurer or policyholder or for other appropriate relief.
