Section Ins 50.10 - Scope of audit and report of independent certified public accountant

Financial statements furnished under s. Ins 50.06 shall be audited by the independent certified public accountant. The independent certified public accountant shall conduct the audit of the insurer's financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. In accordance with AU Section 319 of the Professional Standards of the AICPA, Consideration of Internal Control in a Financial Statement Audit, the independent certified public accountant should obtain an understanding of internal control sufficient to plan the audit. To the extent required by AU Section 319, for those insurers required to file a management's report of internal control over financial reporting pursuant to s. Ins 50.17, the independent certified public accountant should consider, as that term is defined in Statement on Auditing Standards, SAS, No. 102, Defining Professional Requirements in Statements on Auditing Standards, or its replacement, the most recently available report in planning and performing the audit of the statutory financial statements. The independent certified public accountant shall give consideration to procedures illustrated in the financial condition examiner's handbook promulgated by the national association of insurance commissioners as the independent certified public accountant deems necessary. The commissioner may require that an independent certified public accountant conduct additional procedures or provide additional reports.
