13 Principles and Method of Reserving

14 Principles Actuarially Sound Based on estimates From reasonable assumptions Using appropriate methods Inherent Uncertainty A range can be actuarially sound True value know only after all claims are settled Purpose of Reserving Relative likelihood of estimates Reporting context Financial Management Pricing 13

15 Methods of Reserving - UPR Uniform Earning Pattern 1/365 th Method 1/24 th Method 1/8 th Method Marine Insurance Specific Cargo Policies Open policies & Open Covers Uneven Earning Pattern Extended Warranty EAR / CAR 14

16 UPR calculation for EAR / CAR Policy Characteristics Generally more than One year Policy Term Exposure is steadily increasing More commonly used = 1/365 th Method Important to Understand the risk Exposure 15

17 16 Example of different UPR methodology

18 Method of Reserving IBNR / IBNER Data Considerations Homogeneity Credibility Trade-Off between above Few Definitions Loss Development Triangles Loss development factor Other data sources / Proxies 17

19 Understanding Triangles Cumulative Paid Losses ($000 Omitted) Accident Development Stage in Months Year ,780 6,671 8,156 9,205 9,990 10, ,212 7,541 9,351 10,639 11, ,901 8,864 10,987 12, ,708 10,268 12, ,093 11, ,962 18

20 Loss Development Factor Evaluation Interval in Months Accident 72 to Year Ultimate ??? Sample Calculation for Accident Year 2002: 12-to-24 Months = 7,541 / 4,212 From the end of the accident year (at 12 months) to the end of the following year (at 24 months), paid losses for 2002 grew 79%. During the next year (from 24 to 36 months), paid losses experienced an additional 24% growth (or development) and so forth. 19

21 Estimating Ultimate Loss & IBNR/IBNER Cumulative Paid Losses ($000 Omitted) Accident Cumulative Accident Year Paid as of Year End Year ,780 6,671 8,156 9,205 9,990 10, ,212 7,541 9,351 10,639 11, ,901 8,864 10,987 12, ,708 10,268 12, ,093 11, ,962 IBNR/IBNER = Ultimate Losses Paid Claims Case Reserve 20

22 Estimating Ultimate Loss & IBNR/IBNER Ultimate Losses Minus Paid Losses Minus Case Reserves Ultimate Losses Minus Reported Losses Unpaid Losses Minus Case Reserves 21

23 Different Methods for Estimating IBNR Different Methods Paid / Incurred Claims Triangles Average Cost per claims B-F Evaluation of Different Methods Which estimate is right? Which is best estimate? Application of underlying assumption Stochastic 22

24 Method of Reserving - PDR Is sum total of expected net claim costs, related expenses and maintenance costs Exceeding the related premium carried forward to the subsequent accounting periods as reserve for unexpired risk. 23

25 Method of Reserving - PDR Grouping of Products / LoBs Have the same risk characteristics Asset backing the technical reserves are available for each other 24

26 Financial Impact of Reserving & Key Ratios

29 Reserving Trends in India

30 Trends Provision as percentage of NEP has gone up to 72% from 65% in case of public sector companies. For Private sector, provision as percentage of NEP has gone down to 58% in FYE 2010 as compared to 66% in FY2006. Given that the premium rates have witnessed reduction in the range of 20% - 90%, the above trends makes us believe the relaxations in the reserving strength To Under reserve is to under-price the risk Warren Buffett 29
