Description: Models are a staple of an insurance company's operations. However, models that are not appropriately governed may lead to underpriced products, under-funded reserves, unfairly treated customers, and potentially catastrophic operational, legal, and reputational risks. Model Risk Management (MRM), an essential component of an insurer's ERM function, needs to keep pace with the rapidly evolving model ecosystem to limit model risk and produce results that management can trust when employing company strategy. With the adoption of ASOP #56, emerging technologies, and regulatory changes such as PBR, LDTI and IFRS 17, it is increasingly important for MRM frameworks and processes to adapt, upgrade and evolve. Discuss insights on how to embed ASOP 56 into Model Risk Management (MRM) and assess the design, development, modifications, and validation of actuarial models, the advancement of analytics and technology that empower insurers for process optimization and automation, as well as the the key components, stakeholders, best practices, and strategic benefits of a comprehensive MRM framework. Go over use cases on enhancing MRM in the context of ASOP 56, technology, and model governance. Explore how automation and optimization of the MRM process will allow companies to realize the strategic benefits of MRM, ensure successful adoption of regulation changes, and the pros and cons of emerging technology on MRM. By attending the session, you will be able to: - Describe how ASOP 56 can help improve MRM processes. - Describe the key components, stakeholders, best practices, and strategic benefits of a comprehensive MRM framework. - Identify where and how to use technology to automate and optimize the MRM process. - Evaluate the impacts of emerging technology on MRM.

Description: The use of longevity swaps are an area of growing interest in North America for insurers and pension schemes to manage their exposure to longevity risk. This growth is anticipated to continue as a consequence of the increased experience in the market and this maturity will encourage an improved affordability and ability for insurers to be flexible in this space. In Europe and Asia, longevity swaps are a much more established tool for risk transfer and optimizing asset-liability matching. From these markets, we can learn how to establish an effective framework in order to price, implement, and monitor performance of longevity swaps. By attending the session, you will be informed on the typical structure and modeling/valuation approach for longevity swaps including: - Understand longevity swap concepts, their benefits and common use. - Establish a basis for assessment such asmeasurement metrics, risk factors, and benchmarking principles. - Comprehend ongoing management such as basis risk, trigger points/pull-out clauses, potential operational issues, and asset transfer mechanisms. - Understand considerations and approach for valuing under US STAT and US GAAP.
