A&S is only the start of it… A&S is well used within the market and rollout has been moving at pace Currently 95% of original premiums are submitted electronically Currently 75% of additional and return premiums are submitted electronically Brokers have engaged with developing gateways for use of ACORD messages for our A&S DRI services and have engaged software providers to improve the way they process submissions Xchanging have an industrialised set of tools and processes for dealing with electronic submissions The IMR Security Model programme will allow us to overcome the remaining barriers to use The IMR upgrade programme will improve the architecture of A&S and put us on a sound footing for the future BUT…. This is a solution for scanned documents and much of the key information has to be re-keyed by Xchanging Londonisms remain a substantial diversion for Brokers

Objectives of our eAccounts service Move to the use of structured data for key fields Use international (i.e. ACORD) standards for submissions Reduce the amount of Xchanging keying that occurs on submissions and improve data quality (i.e. move to a world of what you submit is exactly what you get back) Remove the concept of Work Order and LPAN Remove the burden of performing Accounting Splits from the Market Provide a consistent splits service and reduce the query / rejection loops Continue to fulfil reporting requirements (e.g. Lloyd’s and existing reports) Minimise carrier impact Make the service ‘pick n mix’ for Brokers with no requirement to go ‘Big Bang’ Removal of BSM (optional) and some London specific messages

Our suggested approach to eAccounts Things to consider: Whether you want to go ‘Big Bang’ when all of the eAccounts offering is in place Do you want to wait until everything is in place to begin your development? Suggested approach: Define the services and validate them with the Market Work with the Market to finalise Xchanging’s overall delivery agenda for 2009 Finalise the funding of the Accounting Splits ongoing service Brokers work with their software providers to choose their rollout strategy Brokers choose to incorporate the delivery of eAccounts into delivery plans for 2009 Xchanging works with Brokers to review any material that they want for completeness with the service Managed roll-out with individual organisations to support Brokers
