The Emerging Accounting Issues Working Group responds to questions of application, interpretation and clarification that are generally much narrower in scope than development of a new Statement of Statutory Accounting Principle (SSAP). The EAIWG reaches a consensus position on a specific issue, and this consensus position is captured in an Interpretation (INT) of an SSAP. In no event shall a consensus opinion of the EAIWG amend, supersede or otherwise conflict with existing, effective SSAPs. For this reason, many times the EAIWG will refer items to the Statutory Accounting Principles Working Group.
Issues for consideration by the EAIWG can be submitted via a Form B to NAIC staff support.
