Zurich Financial Services (now Zurich Financial Services Ltd) was a defendant in putative class-action securities lawsuits relating to its divestiture of its interest in Converium (now Scor Holding (Switzerland) AG). On July 25, 2008, Zurich Financial Services Ltd and the class-action plaintiffs entered into an amended stipulation of settlement that called for a payment of USD 28 million to settle the case in two parts on behalf of all persons and entities who had purchased Converium securities between January 7, 2002 and September 2, 2004: one settlement in the U.S. court, covering all U.S. persons and entities, and all other persons who had purchased Converium securities on U.S. markets, and another settlement in the Amsterdam Court of Appeal, in the Netherlands, covering all non U.S. persons and entities who had purchased Converium securities on non-U.S. markets. The U.S. and Dutch settlements are both subject to court approval and are independent of each other. The U.S. court approved the U.S. settlement on December 12, 2008, and the ruling became final in June 2009. The Dutch settlement papers were filed with the Dutch court on July 9, 2010.

Generally, for pro-rata or quota share reinsurers, including pool participants, the Company issues quarterly settlement statements for premiums less commissions and paid loss activity, which are expected to be settled within 45 days after the quarter end. The Company has the ability to issue "cash calls" requiring such reinsurers to pay losses whenever paid loss activity ceded to a particular reinsurance treaty exceeds a predetermined amount (generally not more than $1 million) as set forth in the pro-rata treaty. For the Insurance Companies, cash calls must generally be paid within 15 business days. There is no specific settlement period for the Lloyd's Operations cash call provisions but such billings are generally paid within 30 days.

In May 2014, the FASB issued revenue recognition guidance for entities that either enter into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enter into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards such as insurance contracts or lease contracts. The amendment provides specific steps that an entity should apply in order to achieve its main objective which is recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. For public entities, this guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, and requires one of two specified retrospective methods of application. Early application is prohibited. Management has not yet determined the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

We expanded our lines of business in new directions by acquiring Eastern, a provider of workers' compensation insurance, on January 1, 2014. We have also been a consistent acquirer of other physician insurers, completing four acquisitions between 2009 and 2013 as well as acquiring an agency largely focused on the professional liability needs of allied healthcare providers and an insurer focused on the legal professional liability market. We continue to see new opportunities from each of the acquisitions and believe each will provide organic growth through expansion in their existing markets and relationships.

Mortality The mortality assumptions are set in light of recent population and internal experience. The assumptions used are percentages of standard actuarial mortality tables with an allowance for future mortality improvements. Where annuities have been sold on an enhanced basis to impaired lives an additional age adjustment is made. The percentages of the standard table used are selected according to the source of business. In 2009, Prudential’s annuity business liabilities were determined using the Continuous Mortality Investigation (‘CMI’) medium cohort projections with a floor. In November 2009 a new mortality projection model was released by the CMI. This model is expected to become the new industry standard. The new model has been applied in determining the 2010 results with calibration to reflect an appropriate view of future mortality improvement. In recognition of the trend in assumed mortality improvements the Company has in previous years included margins in its annuity liabilities. In determining the 2010 results the appropriate level of these margins has been reassessed. See note D2 (i) below for the net effect of applying the new model, releases of margin, and changes to other related mortality assumptions.

Effective January 1, 2004, liabilities for GMDB, GGU and GMIB benefits have been established under SOP 03-1. Actuarial models to simulate various equity market scenarios are used to project these benefits and contract assessments and include making significant assumptions related to client asset value growth rates, mortality, persistency and investment margins. These assumptions, as well as their periodic review by management, are consistent with those used for DAC purposes. Prior to the adoption of SOP 03-1, amounts paid in excess of contract value were expensed. See the "Recently Issued Accounting Standards" section in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information about these guaranteed benefits.

As part of purchase accounting related to the Combined Insurance acquisition, we applied fair value accounting to the future policy benefit reserves acquired. An additional liability resulted primarily as a result of using current interest rates and an adjusted risk margin. We applied this fair value adjustment by essentially “unlocking” the future policy benefit reserves and then “locking in” the new assumptions which will be subject to the same premium deficiency analysis as the original reserves.

We analyze our segment results based on pre-tax operating income (loss). Accordingly, income taxes are not allocated to the segments. In addition, operating results are analyzed net of any transactions between the segments. Operating income (loss) represents net income excluding the impact of realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments and changes in net unrealized gains and losses on derivatives. Prior to 2005, operating income included the changes in net unrealized gains and losses on derivatives that were not designated as hedges. The operating results for 2004 and 2003 have been modified to conform to the 2005 presentation. The impact of realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives includes adjustments for income taxes and that portion of amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs, deferred sales inducements, unearned revenue reserve and value of insurance in force acquired attributable to such gains or losses.

A sensitivity analysis was performed for each significant actuarial assumption which shows the impact on the defined benefit obligation of changes in the respective actuarial assumptions that were reasonably possible at the balance sheet date. The calculation is done by leaving all other assumptions unchanged (i.e. at their value used in the calculation of the defined benefit obligation implicit in the net defined benefit asset/liability in the consolidated balance sheet as at end of period). In reality, it is unlikely that a change in assumption would happen in isolation. Some assumptions may well be correlated. In addition, the net effect in the consolidated balance sheet would also be driven by the change in the value of the plan assets.

Net new allocations to portfolio-based provisions increased by 266 per cent to € 278 million and therefore more strongly than individual provisions did. That refl ects, in particular, the expectation of rising defaults in 2009 because of the economic situation and currency levels which both started to deteriorate signifi cantly in 2008. Only € 42 million and hence 11 per cent less was allocated to portfolio-based provisions in Central Europe. Most of the portfolio-based provisions were incurred in Southeastern Europe at € 86 million and especially in the CIS at € 151 million. Of that, Russia accounted for € 81 million, and Ukraine for € 70 million.

A key means of communicating with policyholders, the annual and half-yearly policy statements require the deployment of considerable resources, particularly as the information to be provided on the statements changes nearly every year as new regulations are introduced. The process is carefully planned and closely managed to limit the operational risks and the costs. Quality certifications help to ensure that the system is secure. The introduction of electronic statements in 2011 has been a promising development because it has helped to improve the service offered to policyholders and partners. in 2013, a total of 18 million policyholder statements were sent out, including 5.2 million by e-mail.

While we obtain pricing from independent pricing services, management is ultimately responsible for determining the fair value measurements for all securities. To ensure fair value measurement is applied consistently and in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we periodically update our understanding of the pricing methodologies used by the independent pricing services. We also challenge any prices we believe may not be representative of fair value under current market conditions. Our review process includes, but is not limited to: (i) initial and ongoing evaluation of the pricing methodologies and valuation models used by outside parties to calculate fair value; (ii) quantitative analysis; (iii) a review of multiple quotes obtained in the pricing process and the range of resulting fair values for each security, if available, and (iv) randomly selecting purchased or sold securities and comparing the executed prices to the fair value estimates provided by the independent pricing sources.

Premiums earned from retroactive reinsurance and structured settlement contracts were $143.5 million in 1997. Relatively minor amounts of premiums were earned from such contracts in 1996 and 1995. These contracts provide excess of loss coverage with respect to past loss events or periodic payments to claimants in connection with settled claims. Underwriting losses occur from such policies as a result of the recurring recognition of time value of money concepts--the amortization of deferred charges re reinsurance assumed and the accretion of discounted structured settlement liabilities. The amortization and accretion charges are reported as losses incurred, and because there is no offsetting premium income, as underwriting losses. Underwriting losses from retroactive reinsurance and structured settlement contracts were $82.0 million in 1997, $73.8 million in 1996 and $75.4 million in 1995.

However, the post-dividend Net Debt will be higher than EUR 959 million, but this is compensated by the higher market value of Sampo plc´s holdings compared to the book value of EUR 7,928 million.

Intangible assets acquired include customer relationships, trademarks, internally developed software and non-compete agreements. The intangibles acquired are made up largely of customer relationships of $38,210,000 being amortized over an estimated life of 14 years, and the remaining assets listed above are being amortized over periods ranging from two to five years. For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company recognized amortization expense of $3,394,000 in its consolidated financial statements related to these intangibles. Goodwill is attributable to the synergies of the work force in place and business resources as a result of the combination of the companies. The Company does not expect that goodwill attributable to the acquisition will be deductible for tax purposes. For the year ended December 31, 2015, GAB Robins accounted for $79,750,000 of the Company's consolidated revenues before reimbursements. The results of GAB Robins are reported in the International segment.

Gross premiums written for Global Reinsurance increased 48 percent in 2003 compared with 2002. The Global Reinsurance segment has expanded into a multi-line global reinsurer that offers a diversified portfolio of products. This shift has enabled it to take advantage of the improved P&C market. In 2003, significant production gains were recorded at ACE Tempest Re USA and ACE Tempest Re Europe as these units benefited from higher rates and increased volume for P&C lines. Gross premiums written for this segment increased 93 percent in 2002 compared with 2001. This increase was a result of the improved market for P&C lines, some of which were first offered in 2002, and additionally due to higher property catastrophe premium rates.

Provisions for claims are determined for each line of business based on actuarial methods. Where such business lines encompass more than one business area, short-tail provisions for claims are distributed based on number of claims reported while long-tail provisions for claims are distributed based on premiums earned. The models currently used are Chain-Ladder, Bornhuetter-Ferguson, the Loss Ratio method and De Vylder’s credibility method. Chain-Ladder techniques are used for business lines with a stable run-off pattern. The Bornhuetter-Ferguson method, and sometimes the Loss Ratio method, are used for claims years in which the previous run-off provides insufficient information about the future run-off performance. De Vylder’s credibility method is used for areas that are somewhere in between the Chain-Ladder and Bornhuetter-Ferguson/Loss Ratio methods, and may also be used in situations that call for the use of exposure targets other than premium volume, for example the number of insured.

In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (“FIN 48”). The interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Specifically, the pronouncement prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The interpretation also provides guidance on the related derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting for interim periods, disclosure and transition of uncertain tax positions. The interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company adopted FIN 48 on January 1, 2007 and although its adoption did not have a direct impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position, adoption of FIN 48 by one of the Company’s equity method investees resulted in the Company recording a cumulative adjustment of $681, net of tax, to opening retained earnings.

The development in earned premiums was attributable to our continued focus on profitable business. We expect that the revised price structure and the launch of a new customer concept will strengthen our position among private customers in Norway further. The performance reflects a year with an unsatisfactory balance between customer inflow and customer outflow during the first six months, and an improvement during the last six months following initiatives relating to the new customer concept and the strengthened sales organisation.

Although the future degree and impact of the ultimate severity trend remains uncertain due to the long-tailed nature of our business, we have given consideration to observed loss costs in setting our rates. For our HCPL business, this practice had generally resulted in rate reductions as claim frequency declined and remained at historically low levels. For example, on average, excluding our podiatry business acquired in 2009, we had gradually reduced the premium rates we charged on our standard physician renewal business (our largest HCPL line) by approximately 17% from the beginning of 2006 to December 31, 2016.

Digitalisation and changing customer behaviour Banking in future will be digital. This revolution is already well underway: customers are adopting digital channels en-masse, especially mobile. Nearly 90 percent of our retail customers use digital channels to contact us. And some 70 percent of those use digital channels exclusively. The shift to mobile in retail banking is starting to be mirrored in wholesale banking, albeit at a slower pace (and probably less far-reaching way).

Income tax expense increased $71.8 million, or 39%, primarily due to increased income before taxes. Our effective income tax rate decreased to 31.6% in 2002 from 35.0% in 2001. This 340 basis point decrease in the effective income tax rate is primarily due to the reduction of a deferred tax valuation allowance in 2002 due to our continued improvement in taxable earnings, nondeductible demutualization expenses incurred during 2001 and the impact of FAS 142.

Loss and loss expenses include both net paid losses and reserve changes for unpaid losses, as well as the associated loss expenses. The majority of the total incurred losses and loss expenses shown above in the three-year highlights table are for the respective current accident years, with reserve development on prior accident years shown separately. Since less than 20% of our excess and surplus lines current accident year incurred losses and loss expenses represents net paid amounts, a large majority represents reserves for our estimate of unpaid losses and loss expenses. These reserves develop over time, and we update our estimates of previously reported reserves as we learn more about the development of the related claims. The table below illustrates that development. For example, the 55.0% accident year 2019 loss and loss expense ratio reported as of December 31, 2019, developed favorably by 0.7 percentage points to 54.3% due to claims settling for less than previously estimated, or due to updated reserve estimates for unpaid claims, as of December 31, 2020. Accident year 2018 for this segment developed favorably during 2019 but during 2020 developed unfavorably, as indicated by the progression over time of the ratios in the table.
