13
Market Reform Page 12 Documentation Key Points Concentrates on End Vision – full implementation of electronic processing using ACORD messaging Deliberately bold Few caveats why difficult or slow to be realised Not prescriptive on implementation paths Optional implementation paths for trading partners to select Will influence MRG end-vision work and hence agenda for 2007
14
Market Reform Page 13 Key Issues Use or otherwise of post placement message – use of such a message will be optional for implementers of P2P framework Claims processing – documentation illustrates how approach to A&S and claims processing can be consistent with hubs and existing claims schemes Statistical and regulatory data – Lloyds is working with managing agents in this area
15
Market Reform Page 14 Use of the Documentation Highlights process flows and message types Not a formal technical design – it is for each firm to produce their own Set in the context of the other Reforms, eg IMR LPAN, firms should: –Assess impact on current process and evolve new ones –Investigate message transport mechanisms –Consider document repository interoperability and its implications –Familiarise with referenced ACORD documentation –Develop a clear strategy for business units and systems to improve A&S processes

18
Market Reform Page 17 ECF Processes & Procedures in MooD Reformatting of the SP&P doc to make it more easily accessible MooD is a business process modelling tool used to support this work Allows process maps to be published (& navigated) on the web and: –Replace texts with diagrams (processes) where possible –Allow users to drill down from high level info to more detail –Place information in context –Display information by role e.g. applicable to Broker only Once ready the ECF Processes & Procedures Guide will be published to the Market Reform website (access is free)
