This was a session from the 2021 Virtual CLRS

This session will explore the company-specific risk factor disclosures in the Statement of Actuarial Opinion (SAO) with a focus on current practice and how the profession is documenting uncertainty caused by the COVID pandemic. The information in these disclosures is used by several stakeholders including company management, members of the board, auditors and regulators as they assess a company’s reserve position. The panel will discuss current background and practices regarding company-specific risk factors as documented in the SAO with several slides comparing this information over time. An Insurance Company auditor will be providing insight into how CPA’s view these disclosures and how they interpret and view materiality of significant exposures.
