ROE “Field of Dreams”

ROE - E an Enigma 2 Capital needed in ACE – Market comparisons – DFA analysis – Statutory RBC models – Rating Agencies 2 Rating agencies – Each rating agency has different ways of assessing needed capital: O RBC type model. O Various ratios and tests. O Comparison with other companies in common rating category.

ROE - E use S&P Model 2 Lower bound of needed capital. 2 Can get a copy from S&P. 2 Is a well defined model. 2 Can be built by the company. 2 Additive. 2 Is simple to use and easy to manage.

ROE - method 2 Pricing ROE. 2 Run a cash flow model. 2 Use S&P capital. 2 ROE is IRR of Surplus flows.

ROE - GL example 1. Surplus amounts use S&P Capital Adequacy factors for premiums, reserves and assets. GL factors used here are: Premiums 1.5 x 0.33, Reserves 1.5 x 0.11, Assets 4.5%. 2. ROE is IRR of surplus flows.

Where are we now? Pricing Model ROE

ROE - Actuarial Value 2 Using ROE pricing models should result in achieving the ROE in the future. 2 Division managers will be given ROE targets. 2 Division managers will establish ROEs for products and business units within the division. – Manager will set guidance for minimum acceptable ROE by product line. – Some products deserve to achieve higher ROEs. – Some will always achieve a lot less. 2 Use ROEs as part of the planning process.

Planning Cycle 2 CEO sets pricing ROE targets. 2 Planning process establishes strategies to achieve loss ratios, ROEs, and volumes. 2 Quarterly monitoring of planned strategies, and revision of loss ratios. 2 Use ROEs as guide in planning process.

Planning Cycle Determine Pricing ROEs. Present ROEs to CEOs, and Underwriters. Develop alternative scenarios to achieve acceptable ROE for next year. Manager/Underwriter agree ROE, Volume, plan loss ratios, and the strategies to achieve plan loss ratios. Underwriters work with actuaries to monitor and manage strategies. Eg Pricing, risk selection, loss experience. Results during the year. Submit Plan with strategies Verify achievements of Plan strategies

Bridging Analysis

ROE planning process 2 Underwriter and actuary must work together to develop the plan ROEs. – Actuary will develop projected loss ratios. – Underwriter will agree achievable price/contract terms/reinsurance costs/new business strategies. – Actuary will reflect underwriters strategies into the ROE bridging analysis to arrive at pricing ROE. 2 The process is dependent upon achieving agreed strategies. 2 The strategies can be verified. – Price monitoring – Underwriter culling activity. – Contract changes – Reinsurance changes 2 The planning process targets the CEOs primary ROE goal. – Deliverables are created – Actuary and underwriter are both responsible for the component verifiable parts.
