The Honorable, The Senate:
We have completed a financial audit of the State Life Insurance Fund, which provides low-cost individual life insurance to Wisconsin residents and is administered by the Office of the Commissioner of Insurance. The Fund is subject to the same regulatory requirements as any life insurance company licensed to operate in Wisconsin, as well as to other specific statutory restrictions, such as a prohibition on advertising and maximum coverage of $10,000.
Our financial audit, which covered calendar years 2001, 2000, and 1999, included tests to ensure that the State Life Insurance Fund's financial statements are fairly presented and to assess the Fund's control policies and procedures and its compliance with statutory requirements. In the report, we provide an unqualified, or "clean," opinion on the Fund's financial statements.
Copies of the audit report have been distributed to members of the Joint Legislative Audit Committee and those required by law to receive them. If you are interested in receiving a copy of this report, please contact our office and request report number 02-18. The report is also available on line at
