SEMINAR

8/9 Oct 2015 in Zurich

How to Set Up an Effective ORSA Process? – A Case Study for the Standard Formula

Organised by the EAA - European Actuarial Academy GmbH in cooperation with the Schweizerische Aktuarvereinigung. 

Capital and Risk management has always been a key activity for both Life/Health and Property & Casualty (i.e. non-life) Insurance companies and Groups. The new risk based regulations under Solvency II lead to new and more formal challenges in this area: This includes a much more formal risk management approach and the need for conducting an “Own Risk & Solvency Assessment” or the so called FLAOR. This seminar is an advanced seminar and is set up as a case study for companies who plan to fulfil the Solvency II Pillar 2 requirements with a standard formula. A good understanding of the standard formula approach and the basics of ORSA are required (e.g. achieved via participating on the EAA basic seminar on “Own Risk and Solvency Assessment” or participating in ORSA projects). The seminar will start with a 90 minutes presentation on the basics of ORSA and continue with the case study.

Participants

The seminar is open to all interested persons, such as actuaries, risk and capital managers, controllers from all types of insurance companies or consultants or supervisors. Participants should have a good understanding of the standard formula.

During this seminar, you will not need a laptop.

Purpose and Nature

The aim of this seminar/case study is for participants to learn based on a practical example how to solve key issues related to the ORSA and Enterprise Risk Management using a standard formula approach. The case study is set up in a way that two solo companies (Non Life, Life & Health business) of an insurance group are considered. For each of these companies an ORSA process needs to be set up (as part of a larger group).

The seminar will only focus on presentations in a limited way, but its core will be a practical case studies and interactive group discussions. The seminar will be of interest for participants who work for an insurance group or a subsidiary of a group company (it will not matter if the mother Company is a big international group or just a local insurance group itself).

Key focus will be given on how to assess the suitability of the standard formula and how to arrive to an overall solvency need (using combined quantitative and qualitative methods), but also how this overall solvency need can be used for setting up the risk strategy, defining risk appetite and limits and how the link to the business and strategy planning process can be practically achieved. The case study is based on the standard formula.

Language

The language of the seminar will be English.
