Current and future bond holdings will need to be assessed against the frameworks outlined in the revised SSAPs to determine which assets will continue to remain on Schedule D (i.e., in scope of SSAP No. 26R and 43R) and which assets will need to be reclassified to Schedule BA (i.e., in scope of SSAP 21R). By attending this session, attendees will understand the regulatory, financial and operational implications of this change for insurers.
