4 “D” Record Overview History/Background The formation of property/casualty guaranty funds began in the early 70’s. The formation of property/casualty guaranty funds began in the early 70’s. By the mid 80’s, when guaranty funds were becoming a factor in the insolvency process, most still maintained books and records which were largely manual. As insolvencies became larger and encompassed multiple states, guaranty funds started to automate their systems. By the mid 80’s, when guaranty funds were becoming a factor in the insolvency process, most still maintained books and records which were largely manual. As insolvencies became larger and encompassed multiple states, guaranty funds started to automate their systems. After implementation of the UDS claim format (April 1, 1995), it was also recognized that the financial reporting by guaranty funds to receivers should be matched to the standardized claim reports, with the added elements of expense that were administrative in nature and therefore not included in the transaction based claim reports.

5 “D” Record Overview History/Background (cont’d) The “D” Record was designed to standardize the claims-related and administrative expense data requested, providing for efficiency, reconcilability and ease of use by both guaranty funds and receivers. The “D” Record was designed to standardize the claims-related and administrative expense data requested, providing for efficiency, reconcilability and ease of use by both guaranty funds and receivers. In December 2007, the new “D” Record for financial reporting was approved by the NAIC with reconciliation capabilities for historical, non-detailed segments and with new features for future reporting.

Speeds up reconciliation with the “C” Record and Revenue sections Allows for review and analysis of claim costs Allows for review and analysis of individual GF Proofs of Claims

8 “D” Record Overview Reconciliation Guaranty Funds Guaranty Funds Prior to submitting the “D” Record to the receiver: The guaranty fund should reconcile the “D” Record, Section 1 to the “C” Record. Any differences found during this reconciliation need to be corrected and an itemized report should be sent to the receiver. This will assist the receiver in expediting their reconciliation. The guaranty fund should reconcile the “D” Record, Section 1 to the “C” Record. Any differences found during this reconciliation need to be corrected and an itemized report should be sent to the receiver. This will assist the receiver in expediting their reconciliation. The guaranty fund should reconcile Year-to-Date and Inception-to-Date amounts in Section 2 and the Revenue Section to the prior quarter report. The guaranty fund should reconcile Year-to-Date and Inception-to-Date amounts in Section 2 and the Revenue Section to the prior quarter report.

The receiver should reconcile Year-to-Date and Inception-to-Date amounts in Section 2 and the Revenue Section to prior quarter report. If any differences are found during this reconciliation, the receiver should contact the guaranty fund.

25 New Report Line Items Other Considerations (cont’d) Cut-off Date Problem Scenarios “C” Record extract date is last day of month but prior to completion of entry of all transaction activity for the particular month. Solution – submit a revised “C” Record extract to the receiver. “C” Record extract date is last day of month but prior to completion of entry of all transaction activity for the particular month. Solution – submit a revised “C” Record extract to the receiver. “C” Record extract date is prior to last day of month and quarter-end G/L closing date does not match extract date. Solution – submit a revised “C” Record extract to the receiver. “C” Record extract date is prior to last day of month and quarter-end G/L closing date does not match extract date. Solution – submit a revised “C” Record extract to the receiver. Quarter-end G/L closing date is prior to last day of quarter and “C” Record extract date does not match G/L closing date. Solution - a reconciliation of the quarter end closing date to the last day of the quarter must be done. Adjustments must be made to the “D” Record reporting system to properly reflect the additional transactions. When the next quarter is prepared, the prior quarter’s transactions must be reversed out. Quarter-end G/L closing date is prior to last day of quarter and “C” Record extract date does not match G/L closing date. Solution - a reconciliation of the quarter end closing date to the last day of the quarter must be done. Adjustments must be made to the “D” Record reporting system to properly reflect the additional transactions. When the next quarter is prepared, the prior quarter’s transactions must be reversed out.

31 Review and Analysis The Receivership will define their own General Ledger Accounts and their own requirement for review and classification of the reported expenses. The data reported is part of the Guaranty Fund’s POC filed with the Receivership. Data is captured in Receivership’s Administration database Data is Reviewed and Analyzed
32
32 Review and Analysis (cont’d) Trend Analysis: Monitoring of expenses within a category of expenses from quarter to quarter for the purpose of identifying spikes or unusual conditions that might warrant follow up with the fund or for comparison of an expense category from one fund to the average for the entire GF Community. Ratio Analysis: Calculation and monitoring of key ratios such as UDS D total SECTION 2 expenses compared to paid losses and alae or percentage of salary & benefit expenses to total section 2 expenses. Identification of Expenses to be Reclassified: Identification and quantification of a specific type of expense that may be reported within SECTION 1 which the receiver does not permit as a claim loss or claim expense or within section 2 that the receiver does not permit as an administrative expense or an expense that is non allowed for reimbursement purposes by the receiver. Classification : The classification refers to the eventual order of distribution on claims from the Receivership. The order of distribution is defined by statute in the receivership’s domiciliary state. Identification of Non-Allowed Transactions: Identification and quantification of a specific type of expense that may be reported, that the receiver does not permit as an administrative expense or an expense that is non allowed for reimbursement purposes by the receiver.

33 Receivership’s Use of the Data Support the Proof of Claim (POC) filed with the Receivership The Guaranty Fund claim against the Receivership is normally comprised of the claim loss and expense payments plus the administrative expenses incurred to handle the Receivership’s claims. Supporting detail for the claim loss and expense portion of the POC is contained in the UDS “C” Records. The remainder of the POC is supported by information contained in the UDS “D” Records Data is reviewed and analyzed for classification and reasonableness. Data is reviewed and analyzed for classification and reasonableness. Further material may be requested or reviewed. Further material may be requested or reviewed.
