Direct reportingCurrent STATUS March, 2013
Direct Reporting What is it ? • A process that enables Managing Agents to report regulatory & tax information directly to Lloyd’s for non-subscription Service Company business • Data is at a transactional level as opposed to reporting information being derived from the bureau accounting process • Breaks the link between accounting and reporting What benefits could it provide managing agents? • Reduces direct costs of transactional processing through a service provider • Meets the desire for choice in operating model • Releases time and resource currently producing LPANs
Historic position - Prototype pilot closed • Lloyd’s developed a pilot reporting engine for service company tax & regulatory information • Outputs internal data files for market reporting and claims monitoring purposes • Limited territories - Canada, Australia, EEA and US • 3 managing agents – Catlin via XML, Chaucer & XL via CSV file formats • Time was right to update the technology, increase the scope & the users
Current position • Replacement of the prototype - scalable for volume increase • Pragmatic and practical solution- CMR collection combined with bespoke core system with a target delivery date of later in 2013 • Increased scope to world-wide • Some Managing agents have been visited and given an overview of the project along with draft data requirements.
Industrial strength, future-proofed solution Key elements to the project • 100% business to Lloyd’s – non-subscription Service Company business • Include all Territories • ACORD standard XML message • Flexible submissions timeframes • Offer reporting service to all managing agents via Core Market Return route
