6 Catastrophe risk STRESS TEST EVOLUTION Lessons learned from Katrina/Rita/Wilma in 2005 Limits for catastrophes redefined Maximum annual aggregates for all occurrences - 100y scenario not to exceed (Non-Life EBIT + Delta), Delta set annually by board - 250y scenario not to exceed 1.3 times 100y scenario Capacity cascaded down to occurrences on clear defined RDS* scenarios incl. all lines of business Applications for new capacities have to fulfil 2 conditions - No violation of above mentioned risk appetite - Value creation (after serving bound capital) Measurement against limits Modelled business: Vendor model results with own calibration, if necessary Not modelled business: Upgrossing according to RDS* scenarios 5 * Realistic Disaster Scenario

7 Catastrophe risk CLEAR BREAKDOWN OF RISK APPETITE Limits exist from group risk model down to treaty departments Global risk appetite for all risks (Group risk DFA model) EBIT risk tolerance for 6 different return periods Maximum loss of EBIT: According to limits Global NatCat (All nat. cat. perils, annual aggregate, net exposure) EBIT risk tolerance for 100y/250y Maximum loss of EBIT: 100y: planned Non-Life EBIT ± Δ 1) 250y: (planned Non-Life EBIT ± Δ 1) ) 1.3 Local NatCat (Selected realistic disaster scenarios, single event, net exposure) EBIT risk tolerance for realistic disaster scenarios Maximum loss of EBIT: RDS 2) : planned Non-Life EBIT ± Δ 1) Capacities per Treaty Department (TD) (For over 250 perils, return periods and maximum liabilities, annual occurrence, gross exposure) Maximum gross loss per Treaty Department Depending on individual peril 6 1) Δ is reviewed and redefined by Executive Board annually based on current market situation 2) Realistic Disaster Scenario

10 Market risk STRESS TEST EVOLUTION Lessons learned from financial crisis 2008/2009 Recalibration of economic scenario generator Vendor ESG in use: Barrie & Hibbert (B&H) Current decision: Follow B&H s recalibration Recalibration of correlation assumptions Work in progress Major source of diversification at reinsurers still holds: diversification between insurance risks from natural catastrophes and capital market risks Already in the model before financial crisis: dependency between insurance risk and counterparty default risk (higher combined ratios trigger higher default rates) Adjustments to investment guideline: Significant reduction of exposure per debtor Further diversification of portfolio Covered Bonds/ABS/MBS subject to improved accumulation control 9

EUR 1,730 5, ,559 3,537 Non-Life R/I Life/Health R/I Assets HR Group Rise in required capital mainly due to higher credit and spread risks caused by recalibrations following the financial crisis Now, credit risk has a higher impact on the asset as well as on the liability side; Diversification decreases Operational risk included according to the current Solvency II standard model Risk-based capital (RBC) 13 As at December 2008 According to internal risk model 99.97% Value at Risk (VaR); equivalent to "AA" S&P rating

15 Capital requirements ACQUISITION OF ING PORTFOLIO WITHOUT MAJOR IMPACT 6 in bn. EUR Sale of equities reduces required capital, but countered by increased capital for fixed income Reduction of return on assets reduces available capital Increased required capital due to acquisition of US-life portfolio Because of diversification only slight increase of required capital U.S. Life acquisition utilises available excess capital Attractive opportunities in Non-Life reinsurance Investment strategy focusses on stable returns Hannover Re's portfolio is conservative and broadly diversified Dec Dec Jan 09 Required capital Non-Life Required capital investments Available capital Required capital Life/Health Total required capital after diversification 14

17 LESSONS LEARNED FROM THE CRISIS Stuff happens... (credit crunch, Gustav and Ike in one year) Increased mistrust from non-actuaries in actuarial models Perception of failed models rather than failed parameters Concerns about diversification effects Increased demand for conservatism (safety margins in addition to model results) DFA-models combine different kinds of "randomness" Natural catastrophes: "really random" events, underestimated consequences Economic scenario generators: "assumed random" events, underestimated uniform behaviour of market participants (systemic risk) Different time horizons for decisions (u/w: 1 year, capital market: daily) Necessity to push hard for constructive alternatives going forward Underlining the purpose of models: decision aid, not decision maker Underlining the importance of key assumptions (spread of stocks over bonds???) Underlining the difference between "recalibration" and "remodelling" Broaden the scope of thinking (combination of models and scenario analysis) Follow (and contribute to) best practices (e.g. CRO-Forum) CRO-Forum publications (e.g. liquidity mgmt., financial crisis) 16

18 SOME COMMENTS ON QUESTIONS RAISED Please note the structural difference between banks and insurers! Undue conservatism for capital requirements through add-ons via stress tests should be avoided. Capital models should try to be "true best estimates". Local regulators should recognise ability of multinational organisations to transfer capital to where it is needed (group support regime) rather requiring local entities to be treated on a standalone basis Current Solvency II "compromise" (postponing group support) is dissatisfying Wrong incentives for prices and domiciles Crisis situations are best managed under the guidance of a lead supervisor Crisis gave reason to recalibrate economic scenario generator and correlations but not to "forget about the models"! Recalibration of return periods for observed scenarios Increased capital requirements for credit and spread risks Asset risk in the crisis is quite different between banks and (re)insurers Liquidity problem mitigated through advance payments of premiums No. 1 risk currently through accounting requirements (OCI) Risks which can hardly be managed by providing capital must be managed through suitable ERM-systems (Pillar II) 17
