Thursday 4 October 2001 Paul Duffy - Bill McConnell - John Ryan Compliance Review GIRO / CAS Convention 2001

Q:\CLIENT\RyanJP\2001\jr0459sh.ppt 2 Compliance Review The Actuarial Profession’s approach to compliance review The Lloyd’s perspective How can peer review help improve the quality of the product What is the proposed process? Who should be able to undertake peer review What are the responsibilities of a peer reviewer Should a peer reviewer be from an independent firm The Irish perspective

Q:\CLIENT\RyanJP\2001\jr0459sh.ppt 3 How Peer Review assist the Process A Second pair of eyes. Greater consistency of Standards Encourages documentation of the process Subjective Judgement becomes more objective Broader Range of Experience Helps identify what you don’t know

Q:\CLIENT\RyanJP\2001\jr0459sh.ppt 4 The Actuarial Profession’s approach to compliance review All Statutory Opinions will require Peer Review Lloyd’s Opinions & Friendly Societies will require Peer Review Overseas Opinions will not initially require Peer Review unless there is an overseas requirement The individual Practice Boards are managing the process subject to review by the Professional Affairs Board

Q:\CLIENT\RyanJP\2001\jr0459sh.ppt 5 Lloyd’s View In general Lloyd’s agrees with principle Any proposals must be fair & practical - Treatment of similar organisations -Must not discourage managing agents employing in- house actuaries -Should not involve large increase in costs -Fit in with existing timetable Actuaries lining own pockets Review of peer reviewer Current position on reviews In-house peer review Auditors actuaries / peer review

Q:\CLIENT\RyanJP\2001\jr0459sh.ppt 6 The Proposed Process For Consultancies & Audit firms there will be an overall review of their processes. This will likely be carried out by Lloyd’s It will be necessary to ensure that this is a distinct process to the Audit Process It is suggested that this should be carried out by someone in an independent organization for In-House Actuaries. It is not anticipated that this will be a major addition to costs The process is subject to consultation

Q:\CLIENT\RyanJP\2001\jr0459sh.ppt 7 Who Should the Peer Reviewer be from an independent firm? Is the answer different for a large consultancy to in- house actuaries? What should be the relationship with the auditor & audit support actuaries? The peer reviewer must hold a Practice Certificate

Q:\CLIENT\RyanJP\2001\jr0459sh.ppt 8 What are the responsibilities of the Peer Reviewer Not to express an independent view of the reserves Must be comfortable with material assumptions & methodology or at least it gives similar results Not responsible for checking the arithmetic Should check results for reasonableness Applies to the results as a whole & not the individual parts Should review the documentation process What else?
