Hi.

 

I attach the LOG with some tracked suggested changes and comments.  I have included Alan’s changes with which I agree.  The changes also mirror some of Aurelien’s comments.

 

I think this works but I have not made all the consequential changes to the cells following the introduction of additional columns to the spreadsheet – neither have I edited the spreadsheet.

 

All should be self explanatory but, if not, please do give me a call.

 

I would also welcome views on whether the accident concentration works for workers compensation.  I think it will work for Group IP but I am not familiar with WComp.

 

There is also a potential issue that has been raised with me at Bupa. 

I’ve not walked through this myself but it has been suggested that the current level 2 text implies that catastrophe risk should be calculated at homogeneous risk group level.

As catastrophe risk is part of the underwriting risk module (HUR1) then it is included in the calculation of the technical provisions which need to be carried out at HRG level.

 

I’m sure this isn’t intended but would you or a colleague know if this interpretation is correct?

 

Regards

Geoff

Dear Aurelien,

 

Hope you had a good Easter.

 

Yes thanks for this. I did get your email.

 

On the whole I understand your comments are clarifying / correcting and for pandemic you are recommending more detailed information.

 

Geoff / Alan are these your views also?

 

Kind regards

Dear Sejal,

 

Two weeks ago I sent an e-mail with some comments on the health part of the SCR CAT template (see attached file). I reckon it more or less answers the questions raised by Alex in his call for comments; however if you’re still expecting some feedback and/or clarifications from me, don’t hesitate to contact me.

 

Kind regards,

 

Aurélien

Dear all,

 

Further to below, please can you send me your comments by 18th April, so I can collate these and aim to circulate to the wider group a couple of weeks before the next meeting on 3 May.

 

If you are also satisfied that the template covers all the relevant areas in the right amount of detail please also let me know.  

 

I have allocated subject areas below:

 

Natural catastrophes: Ian and Trevor

Fire and Motor: Ian

Liability and Marine: Helen

Credit and SuretyShip: Anthony and Peter (Anthony, I don’t think you were included in the original group so I will send you the attached documents separately)

Health: Aurelien , Geoff and Alan

 

Many thanks for your co-operation.

 

Kind regards,

Subject: CATsg - Catastrophe templates workgroup
Importance: High

 

Dear CATsg members,

 

I am contacting you once more to ask for your contributions on an issue that EIOPA and the SCRsg has requested that we have a look at: The catastrophe reporting templates. I have already mentioned this at our last meeting but I now can be more concrete on what is required from us.

 

The catastrophe reporting template is effectively an excel spreadsheet along with an explanatory document that undertakings will use to report their SF results to supervisors.

 

Harold (cc'd above, H.J.G.Hendriks@DNB.NL) has already done a magnificent job in putting this template together. The template has been through public consultation with the industry and comments have been received. The SGRsg has discussed these comments and is now asking the CATsg to have a look at the template and at the comments and to provide feedback on the template.

 

Following some discussions with colleagues I have decided to put together a workgroup to have a look at this issue with a view to discuss and close in the May meeting of the CATsg in London. If you are in the to list of this email you are a member of this group and I would like to ask for your contribution.  

 

This should be a relatively straightforward exercise: All we need is for everyone to look at the relevant part of the template (e.g. Ian at the nat-cats, Helen on liability, Geoff-Alan-Aurelien at the health, etc) and the Log (see below), see whether they are happy with the information requested (clarity, granularity etc) and the relevant description in the log and then contrast with the high level comments received from stakeholders. You should then send any comments to Sejal who will be leading this group and will collect the comments prior to the next meeting. I am keen on circulating any comments of the workgroup and the templates to the wider group as soon as possible so I would ask Sejal to pass these to me at least a coupe of weeks prior to the next meeting.

 

I am attaching here three documents:

 

1. The actual catastrophe non-life template (spreadsheet)

2. The consultation Log (a key for each cell mentioned under each sub-module in the template)

3. The highlighted issues from the public consultation process (high level comments from stakeholders)

 

If you have any questions about the template please feel free to contact Harold or myself.

 

Kind regards,

 

Alex
