Title 22 - Insurance
Chapter 26 - Annual Audit and Financial Reporting
§ 631. Communication of internal control related matters noted in an audit

(a) In addition to the annual audited financial report, each insurer shall furnish the Commissioner with a written communication as to any unremediated material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting noted during the audit. The communication must be prepared by the accountant not later than 60 days after the filing of the annual audited financial report, and must contain a description of any unremediated material weakness, as the term “material weakness” is defined by “Statement on Auditing Standard 60, Communication of Internal Control Related Matters Noted in an Audit”, or its replacement, as of December 31 immediately preceding, so as to coincide with the audited financial report discussed in section 622(a) in the insurer’s internal control over financial reporting noted by the accountant during the course of their audit of the financial statements. If no unremediated material weaknesses were noted, the communication must so state.

(b) The insurer is required to provide a description of remedial actions taken or proposed to correct unremediated material weaknesses, if the actions are not described in the accountant’s communication.
