I have been requested by [Name of company] to render this opinion. A. Scope I have examined the reserves listed below as shown in the audited financial statements of the company as at [insert date]. B. Loss and loss expense provision (gross) My examination of the reserves was based upon data and related information prepared by the Company. In this regard I relied upon [insert name of Financial controller/CFO] as to the accuracy and completeness of the data. I evaluated the 13 The Insurance (Reporting) Regulations, 2013 data used directly in my analysis that fell outside of the range of reasonable possibilities. In performing this evaluation I have assumed that the Company - a. used its best efforts to supply accurate and complete data; and b. did not knowingly provide any inaccurate data. In other respects my examination included the use of such actuarial assumptions and methods and such test of calculations as I considered necessary. My review was limited to Item A above and did not include any analysis of income statement items or other balance sheet items. My opinion on the reserves is based upon the assumption that all reserves are backed by valid assets which have suitably scheduled maturities and/or adequate liquidity to meet cash flow requirements. I do not believe that there are significant risks and uncertainties that could result in materials adverse deviation in the loss and loss adjustment expense reserves. I consider [insert amount] to be material for this company, calculated as [X]% of shareholder equity. The absence of such risks and uncertainties at this time does not imply that factors will not be identified in the future as having been a significant influence on the Company’s reserves. C. Opinion In my opinion the amounts recorded in the audited financial statements above : a. Are consistent with the amount computed in accordance with [insert Institute Standards] regarding long term insurance reserves and relevant standards of practice promulgated by [insert name of Institute/standard making body]; b. Make reasonable provision for all insurance obligations of the Company under the terms of its contracts and agreements. In my opinion: a. The methods and procedures used in the verification of the valuation data are sufficient and reliable and fulfill acceptable standards of care; b. The valuation of actuarial and other policy liabilities has been made in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practice with such changes as determined and directions made by the Authority; c. The methods and assumptions used to calculate the actuarial and other policy benefit liabilities are appropriate to the circumstances of the company and the said policies and claims; d. The amount of the policy benefit liabilities represented in the balance sheet of [name of company] makes proper provision for the future payments under the company’s policies and meet the requirements of the Insurance Law and other appropriate Regulations. In my opinion, the amounts shown in the balance sheet on account of unamortized 14 The Insurance (Reporting) Regulations, 2013 acquisition expenses and on account of unpaid loss and loss adjustment expenses are based on actuarial assumptions which are appropriate to the financial statements of the Company prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and computed by sound actuarial methods consistently applied and are fairly stated. Provisions have been made for all actuarial reserves and related items which ought prudently to be established.
