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: Over the last decade, reinsurance companies have built robust enterprise risk management (ERM)frameworks, but how equipped are they to evaluate the risks and rewards around InsurTechs? How well does the drive for 'test and learn' and agility fit within most reinsurance companies' current risk appetite and business acceptance processes? Discuss considerations when evaluating the suitability of current risk frameworks for innovation, including risk appetites, guidance, and monitoring/communication of risks. In addition, panel experts will offer insight into how actuaries and risk managers can be seen as a valued partner, not just a gatekeeper, in these venturesby providing constructive feedback and maintaining the right skills and expertise in these emerging technologies. By attending the session, you will: Be able to assess ERM frameworks, specifically a framework's ability to manage and monitor innovation as well as better support the strategic decision-making for InsurTech partnerships and ventures.
