Cost method vs measurement alternative
Cost methodMeasurement
alternative may be elected
Cost minus impairment
Cost minus impairment +/- changes in
observable prices
Current GAAP ASU 2016-01
Eliminates cost method, but an exception to full FV available

Measurement alternative - +/- Changes in observable prices
Changes in observable prices must be
From “orderly transactions”
In the same or “similar” investment of
the same issuer
Potential challenges• Is the transaction orderly? • What to do if transaction is not orderly?• Identifying observable prices• Determining if an investment is similar

Income Statement Impact
Disclosures
― Cash flow assumptions updated at least annually on a catch-up basis*
― Discount rate assumptions updated each reporting period on an immediate basis
― Retained the net premium reserving model
― Provision for adverse deviation and premium deficiency reserve removed from determination of the liability
― Cash flow assumption changes reflected in P&L
― Discount rate assumption changes reflected in OCI
― Market-risk benefit changes in instrument-specific credit risk reflected in OCI
― Several new disclosures required
Overview - Changes to Liability for Future Policy Benefits
* Previously referred to as the retrospective approach
25© 2017 KPMG LLP, a Delaware limited liability partnership and the U.S. member firm of the KPMG network of independent member firms affiliated with KPMG International Cooperative (“KPMG International”), a Swiss entity. All rights reserved.
Unlocking of assumptions is meant to provide more relevant estimates of future policy benefit reservesKey Changes:—Updated at least annually in the same
quarter every year, but more frequently if experience warrants
—Unlocked and updated on a catch-up basis (previously the retrospective approach) through net income
Cash Flow Assumptions
Unlocking of the discount rate better reflects the market environment of the liabilitiesKey Changes:—Updated at each reporting date—Unlocked and updated on an immediate
basis in other comprehensive income

Net Premium Reserving Model
Valuet = PV (Benefits + Expenses*) – PV (Net Premium % x Premiums)
PV (Benefits + Expenses)Net Premium % =
PV (Premiums)
All Cash Flow Assumptions Unlocked
* The Board decided to permit, but not require, updating expense assumptions consistently with the update methodology used for other cash flow assumptions
27© 2017 KPMG LLP, a Delaware limited liability partnership and the U.S. member firm of the KPMG network of independent member firms affiliated with KPMG International Cooperative (“KPMG International”), a Swiss entity. All rights reserved.
Discount RateCurrent practice is that the discount rate can vary depending on the type of insurance contract. Discount rates can be currently based on: expected investment yield, policy crediting rate, or dividend interest rate.
— Determine discount rate using a reference portfolio of upper-medium grade, fixed income investments
— Insurance entities would be required to:
- Use reliable information that reflects duration characteristics of the future policy benefit reserves
- Maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs
- Use the interest accretion rate as the original discount rate
IMPACT: Discount rate on assets and liabilities are no longer connected; therefore, the Asset Liability Management reported discount rate could be out of sync with the financial statement discount rate

Long Duration Contracts with Market-risk BenefitsApproach
− One measurement model for all types of contracts with market-risk benefits
− Measured at fair value and presented separately on the statement of financial position
− Recognize the change in fair value: − in other comprehensive income (OCI) when
attributable to a change in the instrument-specific credit risk
− remainder as a separate line item in the statement of operations
Market-risk Benefits
Contract feature that exposes the insurance entity to other-than-nominal capital market risk that arises from either of the following
1) A contract feature that protects the account balance (or similar amount) from adverse capital market performance
2) A contract feature that causes variability in the account balance (or similar amount) in response to capital market volatility.
IMPACTS: 1. No longer would evaluate whether market-risk benefits are derivatives
2. Increased volatility in the P&L due to changes in FV

Deferred Acquisition Costs (DAC)
― Accruing interest on the unamortized balance of DAC― Adjusting DAC for the effect of investment performance or changes in expected future
liability cash flows (shadow adjustments) ― Impairment analysis on DAC
Concepts eliminated under the proposed standard:

DisclosuresAdditional disaggregated disclosures for the future policy benefit reserves and DAC would include rollforwards of opening and closing balances and quantitative and qualitative information about significant inputs, judgments and assumptions used in the measurement of the liabilities for future policy benefits and DAC.
— Provides a principle for determining how to disaggregate the new disclosures to provide meaningful information without requiring a large amount of insignificant detail or aggregation of items with significantly different characteristics.
— Provides examples of disaggregation characteristics (e.g., type of coverage, etc.).
— Consider how information about future policy benefit reserves or DAC has been disaggregated for other purposes when determining which categories would be the most relevant and useful.
— Clarifies that the aggregation of the disclosures would at a minimum be consistent with segment-related disclosures.
IMPACT: The proposed ASU would significantly expand the disclosure requirements for long-duration contracts in the annual and interim financial statements.

Transition Requirements
The FASB has not discussed an effective date
Effective Date
− Difference between fair value and carrying value at the transition date, excluding changes in instrument-specific credit risk, recognized in opening retained earnings
− Cumulative effect of changes in instrument-specific credit risk recognized in accumulated OCI
Market-Risk Benefits
− Apply to existing carrying amounts at the transition date, adjusted to remove amounts in OCI (shadow DAC)
− Apply to other balances amortized consistently with deferred acquisition costs (e.g., sales inducements)
Deferred Acquisition Costs
− Information required for a change in accounting principle, but on a disaggregated basis consistent with recurring disclosure disaggregation
− Qualitative and quantitative information about transition adjustments when net premiums exceed gross premiums and additional liability for a universal life-type or investment contract is recorded
Disclosures During the Year of Adoption
− Apply to existing carrying amounts at the transition date, adjusted to remove related amounts in accumulated OCI (prospective basis)
− Option to apply the guidance retrospectively, with a cumulative adjustment to opening retained earnings

NAIC Passes Insurance Data Security Model LawOn October 24, 2017, the NAIC adopted the Insurance Data Security Model Law, which creates rules for insurers, agents and other licensed entities covering data security, investigation and notification of breach.
— Purpose is to establish standards for data security and standards for the investigation of and notification to the Commissioner of a Cybersecurity Event applicable to Licensees.
— “Cybersecurity Event” means an event resulting in unauthorized access to, disruption or misuse of, an Information System or information stored on such Information System.
— Effective date will vary based on when individual states adopt, but upon that date, Licensees will have one year from the effective date to implement Section 4 (Information Security Program) and two years from the effective date to implement Section 4F (Oversight of Third-Party Service Provider Arrangements)
If a Licensee is in compliance with N.Y. Comp. Codes R. & Regs. tit.23, 500, Cybersecurity Requirements for Financial Services Companies, effective March 1, 2017, such Licensee is also in compliance with this Act.
