This is the second webinar in the IFRS 17 webinar series and delves deeper into some of the IFRS 17 concepts introduced previously. This webinar aims to help you gain a better understanding of some of the key IFRS 17 terms through both a technical and intuitive lens. Where the first webinar outlined the requirements to sort insurance contracts into different groups, this one unpacks the different elements required to financially quantify contracts within a given group. Questions aimed to be addressed in this session include:

• What does the Premium Allocation Approach (PAA) and the General Measurement Model (GMM) mean and how are they different in principle?
• What is the meaning of the contractual service margin (CSM) and what do I need to do?
• What is a fulfilment cash flow (FCF) and what are its components?
• What is the meaning of the liability for remaining coverage (LfRC) and the liability for incurred claims (LfIC)?
• Do we still need to discount our cash flows and add a risk margin?
• Do we need to alter any of our actuarial reserving methodologies?

Please note that the following areas will not be covered in detail in this webinar, but are planned to be covered in a future session:

• Mechanical applications of the PAA and GMM to determine the insurance liabilities
• Onerous contracts

The webinar is free for all members (remember to log in before booking) - $20.00 for non members.
