3 Learning Objectives At the end of this session, you will: Distinguish coverage, administrative burdens and corporate support for local versus global programs Create a framework for deciding which approach is best for your company in different circumstances Be prepared to earn corporate support from management and local operations for your chosen approach
4 Agenda Introduction Risk manager view and thoughts Brief description of International Paper Risk philosophy regarding global programs vs. local programs Experience with property, liability, D&O - similarities, issues Broker and insurer resources/support Zurich view and thoughts Understanding Customer risk strategy and exposure Country regulatory and tax considerations Coverage and claims needs Supporting tools Proposal of best options Conclusion & Wrap up
5 International Paper Overview World s largest paper and packaging company Industrial packaging - containerboard, corrugated boxes Printing papers - copy paper, envelopes, business forms, file folders Pulp - used in tissue, towels, diapers, cosmetics, hygiene products Consumer packaging - packaging for food, cosmetics, pharma; cups, lids, food containers, plates Manufacturing operations in over 20 countries $23.6 Billion in global sales for ,000 employees (24,000 outside the U.S.)
6 Global, Local, or Glocal? Company risk philosophy dependent upon firm s structure and practices Centralized oversight/control vs. regional or local autonomy Focus on cost reduction vs. ensuring compliance Senior management support Importance of global consistency throughout firm s practices Company history and evolution Insurance/risk expertise, awareness, resources throughout the world All of these factors influence the decision process
7 Experience with Various Programs Property & Business Interruption Global program, but with exceptions Global insurer partner No broker, except where required Casualty Global program, but with exceptions Global insurer partner Global broker partner Directors & Officers Liability Started out as individual local placements - evolving into global program Now a global insurer partner Leverage expertise of corporate D&O broker to coordinate globally
8 Broker/Insurer Support Items to consider before engaging partners to build a global program: Local/global expertise and track record in coverage contemplated Geographic footprint matches your firm Strong coordination team to support you (prefer in home country) Willingness to research and answer tough questions about local issues like compliance & regulations, tax considerations, transfer pricing Expertise in managing (and for insurers, paying) local claims Technology to administer program (policies, premium movement, claims data) Who can best provide what you need? Insurer, broker, or combination of the two?
9 Building the Picture Understand customer s risk strategy and exposure Implement Solution Understand country regulatory and tax requirements Consider & propose the best solution for the customer Coverage & Claims Requirements
10 Understand Customer Risk Strategy 1 What is the customer s Risk Management Strategy? 2 How is the customer structured? 3 What are the risks associated with their business? 4 How much risk does the customer want to retain? 5 What needs and service requirements does the customer have?
11 Customers Footprint
12 Regulation & Tax 240+ jurisdictions Sometimes multiple provinces per country Licensing requirements Premium tax requirements Varying definitions for Non-admitted business Lines of Business Conflicts of laws Insurer, Broker and other Regulations Varying business practices Increased attention to corporate governance issues around the world Increased shareholder demands to demonstrate good corporate governance standards Increased awareness of prohibited nature of non-admitted business in many territories Increased scrutiny and tax audits on foreign corporations and insurers Reputation of Insurer, Broker and Customer
13 Regulation & Tax Customers expect their international programs to satisfy multiple requirements. For local regulation we need to understand what is conduct of insurance. So what does Conduct of Insurance mean? The answer varies country by country Marketing? Negotiation? Loss adjustment? Claim payment? Risk engineering? Premium payments? Risk coverage? Zurich has the information not only for risk coverage but for a variety of other insurance activities in our Zurich MIA tool
