Bermuda Collateralized Reinsurers

Class 3, 3A and 3B Entities May Be Used in Collateralized Re Transactions Bermuda has a multi-license system of regulation which categorizes general insurance companies into six classes Class 1: A single-parent captive insurance company Class 2: Multi-owner captives Class 3: Applies to companies not included in other classes Class 3A: Small commercial insurers Class 3B: Large commercial insurers Class 4: Insurers and reinsurers underwriting direct excess liability insurance and/or property catastrophe reinsurance risks

Bermuda Special Purpose Insurer (SPI) SPIs are Bermuda domiciled insurance companies designed to assume reinsurance risks (often shorter term vehicles lasting 2-3 years) There are two requirements that must be met to be licensed as a SPI The business the SPI writes must be fully-funded The parties to the transactions must be sufficiently sophisticated Lightly regulated Streamlined application process Minimum capital is $1 No investment restrictions No requirement for loss reserve opinions It is possible to waive the requirement to prepare audited financial statements and instead file unaudited management accounts

Bermuda Segregated Accounts Segregated Accounts Company (SAC) Bermuda domiciled (usually a SPI or Class 3, 3A or 3B) that is permitted to create separate segregated accounts and to write insurance / reinsurance Segregated account Collection of records detailing transactions related to each other Not a separate legal entity Assets and liabilities of each segregated account are intended to be walled off or statutorily segregated from the assets and liabilities of other segregated accounts and the general account of the SAC

Collateralized Reinsurance Reporting The risk bearing entities of collateralized reinsurers may be classified as unauthorized reinsurers. Premiums and recoverables due to/from the risk bearing entities of collateralized reinsurers should be reported on Schedule F, similar to other reinsurance counterparties Part 3 Ceded Reinsurance: If total premiums and/or recoverables are greater than USD 100K and/or any of the paid recoverables are over 90 days past due (otherwise they may be aggregated and not appear individually) Part 4 Aging of Ceded Reinsurance: If there are outstanding paid loss and paid LAE recoverables (i.e. if there is a balance appearing in columns 7 and/or 8 of Schedule F Part 3) Part 5 Provision for Unauthorized Reinsurers: If there are any outstanding recoverables due from the risk-bearing entity - The risk-bearing entity s share of collateral should be reported in column 11 of Part 5 (Trust Funds and Other Allowed Offset Items) to avoid a provision for reinsurance

Segregated Account Reinsurance Reporting Segregated accounts should be listed individually on Schedule F with their proportionate share of premiums, recoverables and collateral Ceding insurers should include the name of the SAC as well as the name of the segregated account in column 3 Ceding insurers should continue to list the Alien ID number of the associated SAC in column 1 of Schedule F - Parts 3, 4 and 5 2015 Statutory Annual Statement - Schedule F - Parts 3, 4 and 5 (Columns 1-3) 1 2 3 Federal ID Number AA-1111111 AA-1111111 AA-1111111 NAIC Company Code Name of Reinsurer..

Authorized vs. Unauthorized Reinsurers Authorized Reinsurers Reinsurers who are licensed to write reinsurance in a particular state Reinsurers who are licensed in a state with substantially similar credit for reinsurance regulation Reinsurers who have met the requirements to become Accredited, Trusteed or equivalent (the term varies by state) Accepted, Approved, Qualified In most cases, authorized reinsurers do not have to post collateral in order for ceding company to get credit for the reinsurance Unauthorized Reinsurers Reinsurers not licensed or who have not met the requirements to be Accredited, Trusteed or equivalent

Authorized vs. Unauthorized Reinsurers Unauthorized reinsurers are required to post collateral If the unauthorized reinsurer does not post collateral, a provision for reinsurance (penalty) will be calculated which offsets the value of the reinsurance recoverable asset Therefore, it is a standard practice in all U.S. reinsurance contracts that if the reinsurer is not authorized, they agree to provide collateral to the U.S. ceding insurer

Why is Collateral Required from Non-U.S. Reinsurers Collateral ensures collectability of recoverables due from non-u.s. reinsurers Without collateral insurers would have to litigate in the U.S. and then seek to enforce the judgment abroad (which may or may not be honored) Collateral is only required for the reinsurer s share of the liabilities of the ceding insurer (not the full limits of exposure) Paid losses and paid LAE Case reserves IBNR reserves (loss and LAE) Unearned premiums and contingent commissions

Multi-Beneficiary Trusts (MBTs) The use of MBTs requires state approval Reinsurers must apply and be approved in each state where they plan to use the MBT In order to get the MBT approved, reinsurers must agree to several requirements, including Increased reporting Agreement to collateralize 100% of recoverables due to ceding insurers in the state Meeting all these criteria results in the MBT being approved and reinsurer being granted authorized status ( Trusteed or Accredited status or equivalent) Recoverables should be reported as authorized

Multi-Beneficiary Trusts (MBTs) Upon Commissioner approval in each state, MBTs can be used to collateralize balances from reinsurance contracts that incept on or after the date of accreditation Reinsurers may also be able to roll-in balances from contracts that incepted prior to the date of MBT approval No additional regulatory approvals are required for the roll-in Typically, once the existing recoverables are rolled-in, the reinsurer will notify any impacted ceding companies that LOCs are no longer needed and can be released If the existing recoverables are rolled in to the MBT, it changes the reporting treatment of the recoverables All balances in the MBT are reported as authorized

MBT Permitted Assets Trust maintenance Updated on a quarterly basis Permitted assets (Same as a 114 single beneficiary trust) Cash Money market funds Government securities Municipals Investment grade securities Equities, not more than 10% of the total trust value Letters of credit, not more than 20% of the total trust value In the event of insolvency of the reinsurer, the U.S. regulator of the trust is entitled to take possession of the trust for the benefit of U.S. ceding insurers

Advantages and Disadvantages of Multi-Beneficiary Trusts (MBTs) Ceding Insurer Perspective Collateral Feature LOCs, SBTs MBTs Collateral Procurement + Collateral Buffer + Who Sets the Amount of Collateral + Commingling of Assets + Access to the Assets +

Collateral Reform Milestones Credit for Reinsurance Model Law (1984) Provides credit for ceded reinsurance if the reinsurer is licensed, accredited or provides sufficient collateral NAIC Credit for Reinsurance Model Law and Regulation is finalized (4th Quarter, 2011) Establishes new standards for collateral requirements Individual States Adopt Collateral Reform (2008 2015) 16 States have approved reinsurers for reduced collateral Additionally 12 States and D.C. have enacted the reduced collateral law NAIC & State Regulators Support Credit for Reinsurance Initiatives (2013-2015) Assists states in qualifying jurisdictions Assists states in reviewing reinsurers for certification

State Adoption of Collateral Reform Active Alabama California Connecticut Delaware Florida Georgia Iowa Louisiana Maine Maryland Missouri New Hampshire New Jersey New York Pennsylvania Virginia Active (State has Certified reinsurers) State has adopted Model Law (#785) State has adopted Law (#785) & Reg. (#786) Law (#785) & Reg. (#786) under consideration Adopted 785 & 786 Colorado Indiana Ohio Rhode Island Adopted 785 Arizona Arkansas District of Columbia Hawaii Massachusetts Nebraska North Dakota New Mexico Vermont

Certified Reinsurer Criteria Minimum Specified Amount of Capital and Surplus Domiciled in a Qualified Jurisdiction Maintain a Secure Rating from 2 Rating Agencies Set by each state s Insurance Commissioner Model Regulation specifies a minimum of USD 250M NAIC will publish a list of Qualified Jurisdictions Criteria to be considered includes regulatory system, reciprocity & information sharing Must be based on an interactive rating No public information (pi) ratings Model Regulation lists the following 4 rating Agencies: A.M. Best, Fitch, Moody s and S&P

Certified Reinsurer Requirements Application & Certification Eligible Contracts Must apply and be approved in each state The reinsurer s status in the ceding insurer s state of domicile governs the amount of collateral required (It does not matter where the loss occurs) If approved for reduced collateral, reinsurer becomes known as a certified reinsurer Only contracts that incept on or after the certification date are eligible for reduced collateral Reinsurers must collateralize gross liabilities Certified Reinsurer Reporting Certified reinsurers must submit audited financial statements and report on assumed and ceded reinsurance balances (similar to Schedule F) and keep Commissioners informed of significant changes in ratings, licensing etc.

Certified Reinsurers: Ratings Scale Ratings Collateral % A.M. Best Fitch/S&P Moody s Secure-1 0% A++ AAA Aaa Secure-2 10% A+ AA+, AA, AA- Aa1, Aa2, Aa3 Secure-3 20% A A+, A, A1, A2 Secure-4 50% A- A- A3 Secure-5 75% B++, B+ Vulnerable-6 100% Ratings B and below BBB+, BBB, BBB- Ratings BB+ and below Baa1, Baa2, Baa3 Ratings Ba1 and below

Rating Upgrades and Downgrades Certified reinsurer rating upgrades apply only on a prospective basis Certified reinsurer rating downgrades (and revocations) apply retroactively However, there is a three-month grace period for obtaining additional collateral Therefore, when the reporting date falls within the three month grace period, the ceding insurer may report collateral required based on the certified reinsurer s rating prior to the downgrade or revocation

Collateral Deferral for Catastrophe Losses Certified reinsurers are not required to post collateral for recoverables that originated form a recognized catastrophe loss The insurance department of each state determines whether any catastrophe loss is eligible for the collateral deferral The deferral applies to reinsurers at all certified rating levels The deferral lasts up to one-year after the ceding insurer posts its initial reserve for the loss

Florida Update Florida, which was the first to pass the law and regulation and still has significant differences from the Model Law and Regulation Below are changes that are being contemplated in FL (so they are more aligned with the Model Law and Regulation They expect to move forward with the changes in June 2015* Key Differences - Florida Original Proposed Name for Reduced Collateral Reinsurers Eligible Certified Amount of Collateral for A- Rated Reinsurers 20% 50% Eligible Lines of Business Collateral Deferral Applies Only to Acceptable Rating Agencies *Note: The Florida Office of Insurance Regulation put out the proposed changes for public comment. They received 3 responses. They will move forward with the proposed changes in June, unless the responses cause them to reconsider.

Certified Reinsurers: Sample Provision (Part 6 - Section 1) ABC Reinsurer is required to provide 20% collateral Ceding Insurer is due 1,000 from ABC Reinsurance If no collateral is provided, what is the provision for reinsurance? a) 200 (as only 200 is needed to meet full collateral requirements) b) 1,000 (as no collateral has been provided) In the same scenario, if ABC Reinsurer provided collateral of 150, what would be the provision for reinsurer a) 50 (as only 200 is needed to meet full collateral requirements) b) 250 (as 75% of required collateral has been provided)

Multi-Beneficiary Trusts for Certified Reinsurers Certified reinsurers may also use MBTs to collateralize their reduced collateral obligations However, the assets for the reduced collateral obligations must be in a separate MBT than the assets for the full (100%) collateral obligations The only difference between the full (100%) collateral MBT and the reduced collateral MBT is that the buffer layer in the reduced collateral MBT is only 10M If a certified reinsurer uses a full collateral MBT to collateralize recoverables eligible for reduced collateral, the balances should reported as authorized

Reporting Complications - Unwritten Rules Reporting Issue Changing Classification of Reinsurer Eligible Lines of Business Tracking Recognized Cats Collateral Bifurcation Rating Upgrades Rating Downgrades MBT Roll-ins Full Collateral MBTs for Certified Recoverables Impact on Schedule F Reinsurers may have balances reported in multiple sections of Schedule F under different classifications Not all lines may be certified, so the recoverables may need to be reported under different classifications Recoverables from Recognized Cats may need to be tracked and reported separately Collateral may need to be bifurcated to follow the recoverables Recoverables subject to different collateral requirements must be reported on separate lines May need to be reported at collateral percentage prior to the rating downgrade Changes the reporting to Authorized Changes the reporting to Authorized
