Description: "New regulatory requirements demonstrate an increased focus on understanding the liquidity and behavioral risks of structured assets and the close association and interaction with liability lapse risk. In the US, Actuarial Guideline LIII (“AG53”) requires additional analysis & disclosure around the risks of structured, less liquid assets used to back insurance liabilities. In Bermuda, the implementation of Consultation Paper #2 includes several targeted requirements to capture lapse risk, asset behavioral risk, and liquidity risk in a more robust and dynamic way. These emerging requirements necessitate enhanced ALM modeling capabilities and a more holistic view of liquidity risk that incorporates both sides of the balance sheet. In this session, we will discuss these requirements, what companies are doing to fulfill them, and how their efforts feed into a broader improvement of the ALM function."
