Agenda • Motivation • Comparing Two Supervisory Models • Working Plan • Defining the Objective • Supervision Process • Knowledge • Assessment • Follow up • Where are we now?
RBS Main Objectives EXPECTED OUTCOMES • Preventive approach • Encourage prudential administration of supervised entities • Focus on what is important and not the urgent • Learning by doing of supervisory activities
RBS Main Benefits EXPECTED BENEFITS • Better visibility of the areas with greatest risks • More effective control measures and supervisory activities • Reduce claims from members • Alignment with international standards of regulation • Disclosure and transparency to the market
Working Plan 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 • Get familiar with RBS • Diagnosis • Design • Development of framework legislation • Revision of methodology and improvement of supervision guides • Staff training (which included a visit to APRA) • Pilot implementation
Defining the objetive • To build the model it is necessary to have clear the objective • For the Superintendence of Pensions in Chile the main focus for Supervision was defined to be: • Fiduciary Responsability of Managers
Supervisory Process I. Knowledge III. Follow-up II. Assessment
Knowledge • The main activities and elements required are: • Information gathering; • Information analysis; • On-site visits; • Integrated information system.
Assessment: Global Scoring • A global scoring is assigned to every supervised entity taking into consideration the inherent risk of each area, sub-area within the entity and the quality of controls for each inherent risk. • So, the global scoring combines the significance weights and the assessment of control quality. • The global scoring takes values between 1 and 5. • A score equal to 1 → lowest net risk • A score equal to 5 → highest net risk • The risk matrix looks at: • The risk level • Controls’ quality • Global scoring • Change in evaluation over time
Follow up • An end-product of the assessment efforts • Main activities, varying intensity according to necessity: • Monitoring and general follow-up • On-site inspections focused on specific topics • Action Plans with the objective of improve weak points • Integral on-site inspections according to a predefined supervision plan • Periodic meetings with main executives and board of directors • Intervention in specified cases of insolvency.
Challenges throughout the process • Building the model: important to have clear which is the goal • Getting supervisors familiar and to finally be owners of the model • Make the industry accept and acknowledge the importance of the new approach of supervision • Changes on the structural organization of the supervisory agency • Implementation in parallel to the traditional activities of supervision • Integrating all the activity of the Supervisory entity within the RBS approach
Where are we now? • Risks of five of the six pension fund managers have been assessed. • Risks for the unemployment insurance managers were also assessed. • The model for the public pension provider is being build. • The superintendence is doing the following up of the recommendations that came out from the assessments. • A number of areas of each pension fund were reviewed with a preventive approach • The risk matrix is being updated with the information from the follow up process and the preventive evaluations by area
