AMENDING CIRCULAR 11/19 OF THE SINGLE INSURANCE AND SURETY CIRCULAR

(Annexes 6.3.3., 6.3.7., 6.3.8. and 6.3.9.)

The National Insurance and Sureties Commission, based on the provisions of articles 366, fraction II, 372, fractions V, VI and XLII, 373 and 381 of the Law of Insurance and Surety Institutions, and

CONSIDERING

That in terms of what is established in articles 232, 233, 234 and 236 of the Law of Insurance and Surety Institutions, Insurance Institutions must calculate monthly a solvency capital requirement in accordance with the general formula determined for this purpose by the National Insurance and Sureties Commission.

That article 235, fractions IV and VI of the aforementioned Law, establishes that the solvency capital requirement of institutions, among others, must consider the underwriting risks of life insurance, accident and illness insurance, and damage insurance, as well as market risk, asset-liability mismatch risk, and credit risk.

That with the aim of improving the measurement of market risk, as well as incentivizing adequate management thereof, it is considered convenient to adjust the model for determining the loss variables of assets subject to market risk, provided for in Provisions 6.3.2 to 6.3.6, 6.5.2, 6.5.18, 6.6.2 and 6.6.9 of the Single Insurance and Surety Circular, and whose calculation methodology is specified in Annex 6.3.3. This through a simplification of the model and the technical bases that allow for direct incorporation of market information, generating greater adherence to market valuations, as well as a more efficient use of its parameters for risk measurement.

That the calculation of the loss variables for life insurance, accident and illness insurance, and damage insurance, provided for in Chapters 6.2 and 6.3 of the Single Insurance and Surety Circular and whose calculation methodology is specified in Annexes 6.3.7, 6.3.8 and 6.3.9, must be consistent with the market risk modeling considered for the assets.

For the aforementioned reasons, the National Insurance and Sureties Commission has resolved to issue the following modification to the Single Insurance and Surety Circular in the following terms:

AMENDING CIRCULAR 11/19 OF THE SINGLE INSURANCE AND SURETY CIRCULAR

(Annexes 6.3.3., 6.3.7., 6.3.8. and 6.3.9.)

DAMAGE INSURANCE IN THE LINES OF CIVIL LIABILITY AND PROFESSIONAL RISKS,

MARITIME AND TRANSPORT, FIRE, AUTOMOBILES, CREDIT,

SURETYSHIP AND VARIOUS , AND OF

ACCIDENT AND ILLNESS INSURANCE,

FOR THE PURPOSES OF THE CALCULATION OF THE SCR

IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE GENERAL FORMULA.

For the purposes of what is established in Chapters 6.2 and 6.3 of these Provisions, in particular, with respect to what is referred to in Provisions 6.3.2 to 6.3.16, insurance institutions must calculate the loss random variables of the technical liabilities corresponding to Damage and Accident and Illness Insurance, (hereinafter, " Non-Life Insurance "), L P,D,Rm and L P,AyE,Rm (hereinafter, L P,NV,Rm ).

The L P,NV,Rm constitutes one of the elements for the calculation of the Technical and Financial Risk Capital Requirement for Insurance, RC TyFS of the general formula referred to in article 236 of the Law of Insurance and Surety Institutions for the calculation of the SCR. The loss variable L P,NV,Rm will be calculated in accordance with the methodology and information detailed in this annex.

I. Introduction.

The loss random variable of Non-Life Insurance L P,NV,Rm for each of the insurance lines will be calculated as:

where:

· P NV,Rm (0) is the value of the technical liability at retention at time 0 for line Rm detailed in the " Data Manual for the Calculation of the SCR of Technical Reserves ";

· G NV,Rm (0,1) is the total value at retention of claims paid during the period (0,1).

It is determined in accordance with equation (3);

· P NV,Rm (1) is the present value of the technical liability at retention at time 1. It is determined in accordance with equation (2), and

· NV and Rm are defined in accordance with Table 1.

Table 1: Subscripts by line or type of insurance.

Index NV, R m Line or Type of Insurance Provision D, RC Civil liability and professional risks. 6.3.9 D, MyT Maritime and Transport. 6.3.10 D, I Fire. 6.3.11 D, A Automobiles. 6.3.12 D, C Credit. 6.3.13 D, CA Suretyship. 6.3.14 D, D Various. 6.3.15 AyE, AP Personal Accidents. 6.3.16 AyE, GM Medical Expenses. 6.3.16 AyE, H Health. 6.3.16

For each line NV,Rm , the loss variable will be disaggregated as follows

where CC Rm is the catalog formed by the different classification criteria (hereinafter " coverages ") detailed in the " Data Manual for the Calculation of the SCR of Damage Insurance ", the " Data Manual for the Calculation of the SCR of Accident and Illness Insurance ", the " Data Manual for the Calculation of the SCR of Taken Reinsurance Operations " and the " Data Manual for the Calculation of the SCR of Reinsurance Schemes ", which will be made known through the Commission's Website.

The loss L NV,Rm,r will then be calculated according to the following formula:

where:

P NV,Rm,r (0) is the value of the technical liability at retention at time 0 for coverage r ;

G NV,Rm,r (0,1) is the total value at retention of claims paid for coverage r during the period (0,1). It is determined in accordance with what is proposed in sections II.1 and II.2;

P NV,Rm (1) is the present value of the technical liability at retention at time 1 for coverage r . It is determined in accordance with what is proposed in sections II.1 and II.2.

It should be mentioned that the following relationships are met:

and

with f NV,Rm the line adjustment factor of NV,Rm defined in equation (7).

In the event that reinsurance contracts cover the total claims of coverage r , the results from section II.3 will be used.

The present value is calculated in accordance with what is established in Annex 6.3.3.

II. Results for the calculation of L NV,Rm,r .

This section summarizes the main results for the calculation of the loss random variable L NV,Rm,r .

II.1. Direct Insurance.

For direct insurance contracts, the following relationships are met for each group g.

· r,k represents the decay rate of the payment frequency for coverage r that will be paid in year k , with k=1, ... ,a r ;

· pm r.m is the average premium of the institution for coverage r expressed in currency

m ;

· r is the mean value of the claim index of coverage r. It is considered that the mean claim index is a random variable;

· is the price of a zero-coupon bond in currency m, expressed in pesos,

brought to present value, valued at time 1 with maturity at time T , and

· d is the fraction of the year where claims incurred are paid, generally it will be considered that d = ½.

Auxiliary Liability at 0. It will be calculated through the following expression:

valued at time 0 with maturity at time T , and

· d is the fraction of the year where claims incurred are paid, generally it will be considered that d = ½.

Once the above variables are calculated (including those described in section II.2 if necessary), the adjustment factor with respect to the initial value of the technical reserves is calculated according to the following relationship for each line NV,Rm.

In the event that there are negative components of P NV,Rm,r (0) , the associated risks will be excluded from the calculation of the adjustment factor, both in the numerator and denominator of expression (7).

II.2. Taken Reinsurance.

In the case that the institution operates taken reinsurance contracts for line NV,Rm , the following variable is generated:

This variable is added to the loss variable defined in equation (1) as part of the catalog CC Rm . The following is satisfied.
