1
Q

Growth model calendar year ROE

A

ROE earned by business if growing at constant rate

2
Q

Robbin’s goals for prices

A

Should be consistent and sensitive to risk

Should reflect management’s risk return preferences (based on theoretical surplus as opposed to actual)

3
Q

Equation for underwriting income during jth accounting period

A

Uj = EPj - ILj - IXj

4
Q

Deriving GAAP equity from required surplus

A

Q0 = S0 + DAC

Qj = Sj for j > 1

5
Q

Equation for Assets

A

Aj = UEPRj + XRSVj + LRSVj + Sj

XRSV = Stat Expense Reserve

6
Q

Equation for invested assets

A

Invested assets = SAP reserves + Surplus - receivables

Should be INITIAL amounts

7
Q

PVI/PVE

A
8
Q

Advantage of PVI/PVE over IRR approach

A

Market based rate is used as the reinvestment rate

9
Q

IRR on equity flows procedure

A
10
Q

Equation for GBBOPk and GBEOPk

A
11
Q

Formula for end of period income, GIEOPk

A
12
Q

Equilibrium growth phase

A

Where income statement and balance sheet accounts will be increasing at the growth rate

ROE would equal growth rate

Self-sustaining: no more capital required once this growth rate is reached

13
Q

ROE based on discounted reserves

A

Higher during the initial years, but over time converges with undiscounted

14
Q

While insurer is still growing

A

Growth reduces ROE; can be countered by discounting reserves

15
Q

Indicated premium sensitivity to changes in surplus

A

Higher surplus loading factors produce higher required profit provisions

16
Q

Indicated premium sensitivity to changes in interest rates

A

Raising interest rates reduces required profit provision (higher II would mean less UW income required to hit target)

17
Q

Indicated premium sensitivity to changes in loss payout pattern

A

Increasing duration reduces required profit provision

18
Q

Comparing RA DCF

A

Not based on particular accounting structure – no way to reflect treatment of expenses in SAP accounting, nor reserve discounting

Surplus does not have a large impact on premium

19
Q

Robbin setup

A
  1. UW Income
  2. Investable assets
  3. Investment income
  4. Total income
  5. Equity flows

Q

Objective of PVI/PVE method

A

Determine UW profit provision such that PVI/PVE = target ROR
