     (3) To the extent that the corporation's reserve liability, with regard to benefits guaranteed as to dollar amount and duration and funds guaranteed as to principal amount or stated rate of interest, is maintained in any separate account, a portion of the assets of the account at least equal to the reserve liability shall be invested in accordance with this chapter, or in accordance with such requirements as the commissioner prescribes by rule.
     (4) Assets allocated to a separate account shall be valued at market value on the date of valuation, or, if there is no readily available market, then in accordance with the applicable contract.
