HC acquired Assurance reports under the Practical Guidance on Assurance Engagements 3402 relating to our Investment Management Business by an Independent Accounting Firm. Practical Guidance on Assurance Engagements 3402 was developed by the Japanese Institute of Certified Public Accountants (JICPA) as equivalent to ISAE 3402.
Assurance reports under the Practical Guidance on Assurance Engagements 3402 can serve as evidence of effective internal controls and could significantly reduce auditing burden, when the contracted internal controls of a service organization have to be reviewed in conjunction with an audit of the entity's internal control.
