Explore highlights on secondary impacts to companies due to additional complexity of LDTI, such as a need for a source of earnings analysis. Then dive into the details and hear an explanation on how earnings emergence differs for each type of life and annuity product impacted by LDTI. Finally, discuss the impact -to-earnings volatility under LDTI for each product type.

Description: Most insurers operate in a multi-GAAP world: Many U.S. insurers are regulated on a statutory/risk-basec capital (RBC) basis, report to markets under U.S. GAAP, pay taxes on a tax basis of accounting, and manage their business internally on an economic or other basis. In addition, many have overseas entities exposed to even more reporting bases. Reporting requirements are ever increasing and convergence of frameworks is not a reality in most parts of the world.Learn about a multi-GAAP framework to gain a bottom-up understanding of the differences in reserves and other balance sheet and income statement line items across reporting bases, both now and for future projections/plans. Using such an approach enhances insight into the valuation of the business, removes inconsistencies and results in operational efficiencies in the valuation process. At the conclusion of the session, you will learn technical concepts behind the Multi-GAAP framework and some practical ways to design and implement it.
