  8. Solvency Requirement based on 5 Risk Categories • Non-Life underwiting • Life underwriting • Health underwriting • Market • Credit default • Starts in January 2013 • Must be reported annually & monitored regularly

  9. Where does Holdings Data come in? • Market risk • Have to evaluate the risk inherent in their investment portfolio • Concentration risk • Equity risk • Interest rate risk • Foreign exchange rate risk • For investments in funds they have to look-thru to underlying securities • Deconstruct each fund • Re-aggregate all holdings to create composite portfolio • Run different scenarios to assess solvency requirement

  10. What is needed to have a full view of what is held in a portfolio • A mechanism to collect holdings from all current and future providers • A way of identifying the holdings and categorize the holdings into the correct buckets • Systems to manage the exceptions, errors, format changes • Analysts to manage this system and the exceptions • Consistency • Example: • 1000 funds • Average #holdings 100 • Quarterly portfolios • Based on our experience: • 1000 funds x 100 holdings x 4/year = 400,000 holdings to identify. • Average defect rate: 5% gives 20,000 holdings to identify • Just spending 1 minute on each equals to 42 days per year on that process alone
