Speaker: John Dark 1
16 Management of Participating Account Policy Net new requirement to document what you have always been doing Required: by December 1, 2011 if you have any par business Before you can begin issuing Par business Only required by Canadian Companies not foreign branches 2
17 Management of Participating Account Policy Authorities and Guidance Sections 456 to 464 of the ICA plus Policyholders Disclosure Regulations, Part I Section 3, Content of Management Policy. Pending OSFI Guideline E16 ASB Standards for Fairness Opinions Historical 1993 Guidance Note on Allocations of Expenses, Taxes and Investment Income 1982/1986 Recommendations on.dividend determination and Illustrations 3

19 Management of Participating Account Policy Contents Structure Description of participating accounts and policies For closed blocks due to demutualization how is fairness preserved Factors the Company would use to decide to change the Policy 5
20 Management of Participating Account Investment Policy Investment policy for participating accounts (likely a subset of overall Investment policy) hardest part E16: a description of the asset segment(s) supporting par policies; a description of methods used to allocate investment income among the various lines of business, including if the assets are commingled with those supporting other lines of business; the investment strategy, policies, and procedures to be followed in respect of assets supporting the par accounts and the factors that drive the company s investment strategy; any changes from the previous year; any external constraints on the company s investment policy; the company s investment policy with respect to the quality of assets supporting the par accounts, including different classes of assets, credit quality and liquidity the company s policy on the use of derivatives to support the par accounts; any constraints on the company s exposure to any one counter-party; the approval process that a company follows before investing the assets supporting the par accounts in new investment instruments; and the period between formal reviews of the par accounts investment strategy. 6
21 Allocations Allocations For many years (1992?) Companies have had these approved by the Board and the AA commented every year that they were fair and equitable. May need updating for E16 guidance Description in Par Management Policy
22 Investment Income Allocation Description of allocation of Investment income to participating accounts The method of investment income allocation describes a company s procedures for allocating investment income between shareholders and par policyholders. A description of the income allocation method is expected to include: the effect of any commingling of assets between different par accounts; the company s degree of reliance on income generated by assets that support both the par and non-par accounts; and the extent of any latitude for change in the share of profits/losses allocated to each par account.
23 Expense (including taxes) Allocation Description of allocation of Expenses and taxes to participating accounts The method of expense allocation to par accounts should explain how expenses arise and are charged to par accounts and should include an explanation of how the level of expenses is affected by the nature of the business and of the assets supporting the par account. A meaningful method will include the following descriptions: the overall aim of the company s approach with respect to the basis of allocation of expenses; a general description of the charges that a company currently applies and the expenses that are currently apportioned to major classes of par policies; the criteria that the company will apply when it has to make a judgement about how to apply charges and apportion expenses between par accounts or between a par account and a shareholder account; and the circumstances under which the company will charge expenses to the par account at an amount other than allocated cost and the reasons why the company will do so.

28 Dividend Policy New Opinion Requirements: Dividend Policy Fairness Annually the actuary must opine on the fairness to the policyholders of the Dividend Policy Dividend Determination Fairness Annually the actuary must opine on the fairness of any dividend, bonus or other benefit determined for distribution to the participating policyholders and whether it is in compliance with the Dividend Policy 4 4
29 Dividend Policy Fairness Dividend policy opinion I have reviewed the policy established by the Board of Directors for determining the dividends [and bonuses or other benefits] of [the Company], [including amendments made during the most recent 12 months]. I conducted my review in accordance with accepted actuarial practice in Canada and pursuant to the guidance of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions. In my opinion, the policy is fair to the participating policyholders. Mary F. Roe Fellow, Canadian Institute of Actuaries [Place of issue of opinion] [Date of opinion] 5 5
30 Dividend Determination Fairness Dividend declaration opinion I have reviewed the proposed dividends [and bonuses or other benefits], determined by the Board of Directors of [the company] with respect to policy years [ending between XX and YY], and have considered whether they have been determined in accordance with the policy established by the Board. I conducted my review in accordance with accepted actuarial practice in Canada and pursuant to the guidance of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions. In my opinion, the proposed dividends [and bonuses or other benefits] are in accordance with the policy established by the Board and are fair to the participating policyholders. Mary F. Roe Fellow, Canadian Institute of Actuaries [Place of issue of opinion] [Date of opinion] 6 6
31 Requirements of Dividend Policy Principles used to determine the dividend scale: Explain use of Contribution Principle or Alternate Participating contracts that the policy covers Explain Terminal Dividends (if any) Outline Contribution to Surplus Philosophy What part of participating earnings is not distributed How often is Dividend scale reviewed What would cause a change in this policy? 7 7

36 Adjustable policies What is an adjustable policy? An adjustable policy is an individual nonparticipating life insurance policy for which the company, may at its sole discretion, directly or indirectly, change the premium or charge for insurance, the amount of insurance, or the policy s surrender value
37 Adjustable policies What is clearly not an adjustable policy Participating policies (even if they have adjustable like features) Annuities Group Reinsurance A & S Immaterial or accessory variable features (e.g. interest on premiums or dividends on deposit)
38 Adjustable policies What may or may not be an adjustable policy UL Adjustable if e.g. COI, expense charge, MER on variable funds (set by company) or interest rate on existing deposits may be changed Perhaps not adjustable if insured can select alternative investment options without loss of value or imperiling coverage
39 Adjustable policies What may or may not be an adjustable policy Individual segregated fund policies Mostly annuities, so not adjustable but If material death benefit component, it is likely an IVI policy and may be adjustable depending on its terms
40 Adjustable policies What may or may not be an adjustable policy If renewal premiums set equal to then current rates, likely not adjustable but What if no new business being sold? What if new premiums impacted by in force? In general TF can offer no bright line benchmark, so up to company to determine contract by contract whether adjustable
41 Fairness opinions Required with respect to Board criteria for making changes Annually on continuing fairness of criteria Annually, with respect to changes made to policies in preceding 12 months
42 Concepts of Fairness Since company has unilateral control, favouring the company is not fair Desirable preconditions Contract is clear as to what is adjustable Contract is clear on reasons for adjusting Sales, illustration and any other policyholder material are clear and consistent with contract Often will not fully exist, so judgment is essential
43 Concepts of Fairness
44 Concepts of Fairness Actual changes made conform to Board criteria, contract terms, and PRE As a reasonably informed policyholder, would I find changes fair? Document, document, document Justification of why changes fair Evidence reviewed (experience studies etc) Consider periodic external review
45 Managing volatility Reasonable averaging helps prevent undesirable short-term volatility (from both policyholder and company perspective) By definition entails some cross-subsidies Averaging policy should be established in advance and not altered thereafter Exception: force majeure No recovery of losses on one cohort due to guarantees from another
