Pathways, our Mental Health Network, was launched in the UK in February 2017. The network’s mission is to allow employees to bring their whole selves to work; to allow them to feel accepted and included and to reduce the stigma surrounding mental health issues. Training and awareness sessions have been at the core of our work since the launch. Across the globe, we also hold various local events on topics such as work stress, mental health and awareness trainings. For example, in South Korea we held two learning sessions on stress management that taught to understand stress and how to manage it properly. In Bangalore, we organised a mindfulness talk show where employees learned about the practice and benefits to reduce stress at work. To help our people stay fit, we provide onsite fitness centres and classes, for instance, in Switzerland.

When a derivative instrument used in a cash flow hedge of an existing asset or liability is no longer effective or is terminated, the gain or loss recognized on the derivative is reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to net income as the hedged risk impacts net income. If the derivative instrument is not terminated when a cash flow hedge is no longer effective, the future gains and losses recognized on the derivative are reported in realized capital gains and losses. When a derivative instrument used in a cash flow hedge of a forecasted transaction is terminated because the forecasted transaction is no longer probable, the gain or loss recognized on the derivative is immediately reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to realized capital gains and losses in the period that hedge accounting is no longer applied.

Present Value of Expected Future Contractual Premiums- Our contractual premiums are subject to change primarily for two reasons: (1) all of our contracts provide our counterparties with the right to terminate upon our default and (2) 86% of the aggregate net par outstanding of our corporate CDO transactions (as of December 31, 2010) provide our counterparties with the right to terminate these transactions based on certain rating agency downgrades that occurred in the past. In determining the expected future premiums of these transactions, we adjust the contractual premiums for such transactions to reflect the estimated fair value of those premiums based on our estimate of the probability of our counterparties exercising this downgrade termination right and the impact it would have on the remaining expected lifetime premium. In these circumstances, we also cap the total estimated fair value of the contracts at zero, such that none of the contracts subject to immediate termination are in a derivative asset position. The discount rate we use to determine the present value of expected future premiums is our CDS spread plus a risk-free rate. This discount rate reflects the risk that we may not collect future premiums due to our inability to satisfy our contractual obligations, which provides our counterparties the right to terminate the contracts.

Given the nature of Beazley’s business, the key risks that impact financial performance arise from insurance activities and fall into the following categories: • Market cycle risk: The risk of systematic mispricing of the medium tailed specialty lines business which could arise due to a change in the US tort environment, changes to the supply and demand of capital, and companies using incomplete data to make decisions; • Natural catastrophe risk: The risk of one large event caused by nature affecting a number of policies and therefore giving rise to multiple losses. Given Beazley’s risk profile, this could be a hurricane, major windstorm or earthquake; • Non natural catastrophe risk: This risk is similar to natural catastrophe risk except that multiple losses arise from one event caused by mankind. Given Beazley’s risk profile, examples include a coordinated cyber attack, an act of terrorism, an act of war or a political event; • Reserve risk: The risk that the reserves put aside for claims to be settled in the future turn out to be insufficient; and

In non-life reinsurance we were able to maintain the operating profit (EBIT) virtually unchanged on a level in excess of EUR 1 billion, despite a 17 percent decline in investment income. This was made possible above all by the fact that the increase in the underwriting profit comfortably outweighed the contraction in ordinary investment income. The appreciable deterioration in extraordinary investment income, which in the year under review reached a level in line with normalised expectations, was to some extent offset by an improvement in other income. Net income in the non-life reinsurance business group climbed by 18 percent to EUR 808 million, thereby benefiting from the positive tax effect already described above in connection with provisions for deferred taxes.

The timing of claim reporting to reinsurers is delayed in comparison with primary insurance. In some instances there are multiple reinsurers assuming and ceding parts of an underlying risk causing multiple contractual intermediaries between General Re or BHRG and the primary insured. In these instances, the delays in reporting can be compounded. The relative impact of reporting delays on the reinsurer varies depending on the type of coverage, contractual reporting terms and other factors. Contracts covering casualty losses on a per occurrence excess basis may experience longer delays in reporting due to the length of the claim tail as regards to the underlying claim. In addition, ceding companies may not report claims to the reinsurer until it becomes reasonably possible that the reinsurer will be affected, usually determined as a function of its estimate of the claim amount as a percentage of the reinsurance contract retention. On the other hand, the timing of reporting large per occurrence excess property losses or property catastrophe losses may not vary significantly from primary insurance.

TheGroup’s intangible asset relating to syndicate capacity has been allocated, for impairment testing purposes, to one individual cash generating unit being the active Lloyd’s corporate member entity. TheGroup has considered the recoverable amount from the active Lloyd’s corporate member entity on a value in use basis. This calculation uses cash flow projections based on financial forecasts approved by management covering a five-year period. Cash flows beyond the five-year period are extrapolated based on an average level of return and annual growth estimated at 2% consistent with the industry long term average. A pre-tax discount factor of 7% has been applied to projected cash flows as part of the exercise. The results of this exercise indicate that the recoverable amount exceeds the intangible’s carrying value. TheGroup’s weighted average cost recognised on the balance sheet is approximately 10Pence per Pound of syndicate capacity held, which is significantly below the average openmarket price of 26 Pence per Poundwitnessed in the recent Lloyd’s of London Syndicate 33 capacity auctions in Autumn 2007.

As a result of fluctuations in equity markets, the obligation incurred by the Company related to EIA and IUL products will positively or negatively impact earnings over the life of these products. As a means of economically hedging its obligations under the provisions of these products, the Company enters into index options and futures contracts. The gross notional amount of these derivative contracts was $512 million and $210 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

We use various derivative instruments to manage risks related to certain life insurance and annuity products. We can use these derivatives as economic hedges against risks inherent in the products. These risks have a direct impact on the cost of these products and are correlated with the equity markets, interest rates, foreign currency levels, and overall volatility. The hedged risks are recorded through the recognition of embedded derivatives associated with the products. These products include the GLWB rider associated with the variable annuity, fixed indexed annuity products as well as indexed universal life products. During the year ended December 31, 2016 (Successor Company), we experienced net realized gains on derivatives related to VA contracts of approximately $11.1 million. The net gains on derivatives related to VA contracts for the year ended December 31, 2016 (Successor Company) in addition to capital market impacts were affected by changes in assumed mortality and GLWB utilization.

Even if recent years have seen us make consistent progress – these successes were not just given to us, especially considering the low and even negative interest rate levels. Nor was it necessarily to be expected that Standard & Poor’s would improve our rating from A– to A, as they did in May last year. We also see Swiss Life’s return to the Swiss Market Index of the 20 largest Swiss companies in March as further confirmation of our progress.

As our data analytic and AI capabilities grow, we may benefit from more accurate underwriting of risk, but will need to be mindful of our obligation to make financial and insurance services widely available. Genome mapping (genomics) creates opportunities to offer more individualized insurance solutions and offer more targeted pricing of the underlying risk. Ethical discussions, however, are taking place worldwide about what data to share and how. The development of these discussions will influence insurance solutions and access to them. In many markets, lifestyle is increasingly intertwined with insurance products; as an insurer, we have an opportunity to inform and engage customers about lifestyle choices, and consider how we can also reflect those in our underwriting and pricing.

Statement No. 123(R) must be adopted no later than July 1, 2005, and we expect to adopt the Statement on that date. As permitted by Statement No. 123, the Company currently accounts for share based payments to employees using the intrinsic value method as detailed in Opinion No. 25 and, as such, generally recognizes no compensation cost for employee stock options. Accordingly, the adoption of Statement No. 123(R)’s fair value method will have an impact on our results of operations, although it will have no impact on our overall financial position. The impact of adoption of Statement No. 123(R) cannot be predicted at this time because it will depend on levels of share based payments granted in the future. However, had we adopted Statement No. 123(R) in prior periods, the impact of the standard would have approximated the impact of Statement No. 123 as described in Note 2.n. of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this annual report.
