Description: This presentation is a Teaching Session, number 4A, from the 1987 Valuation Actuary Symposium. The subject of the session is Regulation 126, effective for year end 1986 for all companies doing business in New York, which requires an actuarial opinion and memorandum with respect to the adequacy of the assets to support the liabilities for annuities, guaranteed investment products, and related products. The instructor discusses areas of concern from New York as a result of the first year of filings, including completeness, call and prepayment assumptions, default assumptions [sometimes zero], surrender assumptions [too low], failure to reflect taxes, poor communication between actuary and investment department, length of projections, varying yield curves, reflection of reinsurance, and the most common reason for rejecting the opinion: using starting assets greater than liabilities. Other problems were illustrated through examples, and changes to Regulation 126 were discussed.
