FPCA Member Comments Requested for October 21 Annual Audited Financial Reports Rule Workshop

Oct 17, 2009

 

The Florida Office of Insurance Regulation has scheduled a Rule Development Workshop on October 21 at 9:30 a.m. for proposed Rule 69O-137.002, Annual Audited Financial Reports, which would implement Sarbanes-Oxley-type financial controls for certain Florida insurers similar to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners’ 2006 Model Audit Rule.  As part of its insurance department accreditation process, the NAIC has given state insurance departments until 2010 to adopt the Model Audit Rule or substantially similar regulations.

Representatives from Colodny Fass will be attending this Workshop.  Should you wish to provide comments on the proposed Rule as an FPCA member, we can present these on your behalf.  Please contact Katie Webb at kwebb@cftlaw.com no later than Tuesday, October 20.
