Financial statements furnished pursuant to Section 012 hereof will be examined by the independent certified public accountant. The audit of the insurer's financial statements will be conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. The independent certified public accountant should obtain an understanding of internal control sufficient to plan the audit. To the extent prescribed by the standards of his profession, for those insurers prescribed to file a Management's Report of Internal Control over Financial Reporting pursuant to Section 023, the independent certified public accountant should consider (as that term is defined in generally accepted auditing standards) the most recently available report in planning and performing the audit of the statutory financial statements. Consideration will be given to the other 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.
