Quarterly Returns Reporting

The Central Bank of Trinidad and Tobago requires insurance companies registered under the Insurance Act, 2018 or 1980 to submit revised Quarterly Returns Version 5.0, replacing Version 4.1. Insurers must submit both versions in hardcopy and electronic format during a parallel reporting period starting with the quarter ended March 31, 2021. This dual submission obligation applies for two consecutive quarters, potentially extending if necessary, to facilitate the transition to the new reporting schedules.
