3. Contract Certainty • Market performance still ahead of target • Work remaining in three areas: • Quality and robustness of data • Exception reduction • Legacy • Letter to all industry CEOs just gone • 2007 plan in development • Legacy numbers show decline in priority 2 and 3 legacy • Priority 1 still increasing, change request to UPR still to be agreed Page 3

4. Time line to conclusion of FSA challenge Page 4

5. Contract Documentation Pilot • Contract documentation pilot still running • Broad support for the concept • Limited volumes to date (10-20 contracts) • Slip templates an issue plus general lack of awareness • Work underway to raise awareness & resolve blockers Page 5

7. Agenda • ECF is Live • Why do we need an ECF? • Contractual Framework, Training and Governance • ECF not happening in Isolation • What are the Future Plans? • A&S Latest – Direct Load and Email live/ DRI in MAT • Next steps Page 7

8. ECF is Live Page 8

9. ECF is Live Implementation • ECF went live over the weekend of 9th / 10th September • 111 Partnerships operational (across Lloyds and IUA) • Volumes (over 2000 total transactions processed) • + IUA pilot started includes Global Aerospace, Liberty, Markel, Munich Re, Swiss Re, XL, Zurich, Score, Faraday (till Dec 2006) • Project Approach • Big bang hasn’t worked in the past • Partnerships decide to sign up when ready • Early implementers – lessons learnt • BEFIT and ECPG working closely with BP&CM to ensure project success Page 9

10. ECF Live Project Scope • Partnerships • Firms decide partnerships by class of business / trading relationships • With Lloyd’s and IUA carriers and XCS • MRPO is monitoring progress • New claims and their subsequent transactions • Existing paper based claims (legacy) to be tackled later • System Processes and Procedures (SP&P) • Some areas are currently excluded from scope • February CR’s will address some of these e.g. Binders; Direct Reporting • See SP&P for full list of areas in scope • Base camp • Remember Phase 5 was always meant to be ‘base camp’ • Further improvements will be made Page 10

11. Brokers Committed to deliver new claims to Lloyd’s electronically Aon Benfield Marsh Guy Carpenter Cooper Gay Active support from: Glencairn ARB JLT Gallagher Miller Claytons Willis Managing Agents Committed to deal electronically with new claims Amlin Brit Faraday Hiscox Limit Marlborough St Paul Traveler’s Advent SVB Wellington Beazley Ascot Chaucer Heritage Beaufort Cathedral Hardy Public Commitment to 100% Target on ECF Live Page 11

12. Current High Priority Issue • Contractual Framework • Needs to be signed up by all participants (ECF and A&S) who wish to use the Repository from day one (brokers and managing agents). • Framework made up of Repository Rules and Xchanging side letter to sign. It is legally binding. • Repository Rules cover important topics, such as:- • License to use and access documents • Unintentional disclosure • Authentication of users • Governance • Law and Jurisdiction • Pack to be sent out later once all details are finalised - real drive to get all committed parties to sign up to side letter and rules……… Page 12

13. Other Immediate Next Steps • Repository Rules to be agreed and distributed to firms • November Release to fix faults (minor) found in Phase 5 MAT. • Continue to ramp up on and support new Live partnerships • Expected delivery of signed-off Phase 6 Business Design into MAT early Q1 2007. • Current live implementations aimed for end Feb – beginning March 2007. • Things change and we won’t have thought of everything • There will be more issues and enhancements Page 13

14. Claims Infrastructure Strategy What will the claims infrastructure in the London Market look like in 5 years? • ECIS Group formed included representation from Brokers; LMA & IUA • Met between March and June 2006 and drafted the ‘Green Paper’ • Green Paper provides a high level end vision (3-5 yrs) for the claims infrastructure in the London Market • Peer to Peer ACORD messaging will be the norm • ECIS Subgroup formed to discuss the end vision in more detail (July to October) • This subgroup drafted A&S Claims Process Flows document (Peer to Peer claims messages) • Describes when the different types of ACORD claim messages will be sent /received • Highlights the implementation issues to be addressed e.g Transition/Legacy • More detailed work will be required by the early implementers of the end vision Page 14

15. Update on A&S Repository Page 15

16. Context - Restatement of overall A&S Objectives • Rationalise and streamline business processes, specifically: • Speed up premium and claims payment • Remove reliance on paper • Reduce errors and reconciliation by capturing richer data once • Enable back office rationalisation • Introduce flexibility - process the way the business requires rather than the business being driven by constraints • Implement international standards for the communication and processing of accounting & settlement data (the ACORD XML RLC standards) • Provide a firm base for the future Page 16

17. Repository • Broker loads slip, LPANs and supporting documentation to repository thereby removing paper (and vans) • Three methods: • Direct Load • Email • DRI Message • Carriers can gain access and view and download documents • DRI enabled repository that also enables direct loading and enquiries to: • deliver documents to Xchanging Ins-Sure Services for checking • deliver documents directly between brokers and carriers i.e. in support of non-bureau or P2P processes Page 17

18. Repository Benefits and Implications • Faster turnaround times for documentation since “van time” is eliminated. • No “van time” and speedier query resolution means signed lines available quicker • Speedier resolution of queries will reduce the volume of rejections • DRI functionality consistent with ECF. Brokers have options on how to connect, DRI Push, DRI Pull or Direct load (or additionally email for delivery to Xchanging for checking) • Gives insurers access to a copy of the slip and other premium submission documentation in the repository • Carriers can be notified as a slip is loaded on the repository thereby allowing signed lines to be communicated sooner, thus allowing speedier exposure management • Utility function of the repository, without XIS processing, allows broker to distribute documents in a controlled manner to specified parties Page 18

20. Direct Load Page 20

21. Repository Timescales • Project documentation signed off – on target by end of April 2006 • Build time - this is being delivered in three releases • Release 1 – Direct Load and Email Upload • NOW LIVE • Around 2,300 transactions processed since the ‘go-live’ weekend of the 9/10th September. • Release 2 – DRI Functionality • MAT Date – Ongoing at present • Go live Date – November 2006 • Release 3 – Utility Repository • 1st Quarter 2007 Page 21

23. A&S – Publication of Design and Measurement Update Brian Austin / 25th October 2006

24. Publication of A&S Strategy Design • MRG approval to publish now received • Business Design and supporting Technical Information with covering letter • Context is three work streams: • Measurement • Insurers’ Market Repository • End Vision Page 24

25. Documentation Key Points • Concentrates on End Vision – full implementation of electronic processing using ACORD messaging • Deliberately bold • Few caveats why difficult or slow to be realised • Not prescriptive on implementation paths • Optional implementation paths for trading partners to select • Will influence Reform agenda for 2007, including e:placing and e:claims Page 25

26. Key Issues • Use or otherwise of “post placement” message – use of such a message will be optional for implementers of P2P framework • Claims processing – documentation illustrates how approach to A&S and claims processing can be consistent with hubs and existing claims schemes • Statistical and regulatory data – Lloyd’s is working with managing agents in this area Page 26

27. Use of the Documentation • Highlights process flows and message types • Not a formal technical design – it is for each firm to produce their own • Set against the context of the other Reforms, eg IMR LPAN, firms should: • Assess impact on current process and evolve new ones • Investigate message transport mechanisms • Consider document repository interoperability and its implications • Familiarise with referenced ACORD documentation • Develop a clear strategy for business units and systems to improve A&S processes Page 27

28. A&S Measurement Regime • Sponsored by A&S Project Board • Aim to create transparency of today’s paper process • Publish XIS checks as applied today • Capture data from XIS and analyse Market performance eg • de-linking take up, • quality of broker submission, • timeliness, eg unwelcome trends (eg submit close to SDD) • Identify quick wins and educate to improve performance as a prelude to: • A&S implementation proper • Use of ACORD messages • Validation at source in broker systems Page 28

29. Checks/Procedures Publication Status • All Lloyd’s checks published except for detailed overseas checks • Lloyd’s Tax rules published • IUA checks readied and awaiting sign off • IUA Tax “mat” ready for publication • LPAN completion guide published • Work on education material for accounting splits being prepared Page 29

30. Reports Status • First graphs and tabular data received from XIS and to be published on MRPO web site • Regular monthly updates will be added • Dialogue between IUA and XIS for company market reports begun • Graphs will include: • XIS query and rejection percentages • source of files eg Repository, E:LPAN2 etc • Common areas of failure Page 30
