1 Conduct of Business Returns ( CBR s ) Revised Categorisation, questions and reporting levels Response to industry comments EECUTIVE SUMMARY This document provides a guide to the revised draft Conduct of Business Returns ( CBR s ) released for public comment, following consideration of comments received on the previous draft and alignment with the proposed prudential regulatory reporting requirements in terms of the future Solvency Assessment and Management ( SAM ) framework. The CBR s are a new set of market conduct returns that will need to be completed by all life and non-life insurers in South Africa, excluding reinsurers and captive insurers 1. The CBR s will form part of the off-site supervision framework for insurers, with the aim of providing the Financial Services Board ( FSB ) with a quantitative summary of key market conduct risk indicators. The market conduct risk indicators have been informed by various data sources, such as on-site visits, complaints information and local and international policy and regulatory developments. These indicators will be reviewed on an annual basis to ensure that they remain relevant. The CBR s will feed into the overall market conduct risk-based supervision framework, which contemplates the development of conduct risk profiles for individual insurers and groups. The first version of the draft CBR s was sent out to industry associations for comments on 31 October The CBR s have been significantly revised subsequent to the consideration of comments received from various stakeholders and industry consultation workshops held with the South African Insurance Association ( SAIA ), the Association for Savings and Investment South Africa ( ASISA ) and other industry representatives. The reporting classes of the CBR s have also been aligned, as far as reasonably possible, to the reporting classes contained in the SAM draft reporting templates and the classes and sub-classes of insurance business set out in Schedule 2 of the Insurance Bill, Although largely aligned, there will be some differences between the granularity of reporting information required for purposes of prudential supervision and market conduct supervision respectively, due to the different supervisory objectives sought to be achieved in each case. In order to monitor key conduct outcomes, the reporting classes are broken down into more granular benefit or cover types for the purposes of the CBR s. 1 A captive insurer refers to an insurer that only insures first party risks. First party risks in respect of a captive insurer means the operational risks of (i) the group of companies of which the insurer is a part; (ii) any associate of a company that is part of the group of companies referred to in (i); or (iii) any joint arrangement that a company that is part of the group of companies referred to in paragraph (i) participates in. Page 1 of 55
2 The updated draft CBR s consist of a number of sheets depending on the number of classes of business underwritten by a specific insurer. For each sheet, the columns reflect the benefit or cover types per class of business. The breakdown of these benefits or cover types per class of business are provided in section 4 below. Each return also contains sheets containing instructions on how to complete the returns, an explanation of terminology used, a declaration that must be signed on behalf of the insurer and a general sheet. The general sheet contains questions relating to remuneration for outsourced activities, advertising and marketing expenditure and complaints management. An additional section has been added with questions relating to add-on or rider benefits. Below is a brief explanation of the rationale behind the information requested in each section of the CBR s: 1. Business Composition This section focuses on identifying trends in the sales, lapses, not taken up s and cancellation of policies depending on the different distribution channels of the insurer. It will provide information regarding possible mis-selling, growth in different channels of business, movement of policies in the industry and the chosen distribution channel for different target markets. 2. Distribution and Binder Costs Statistics on commission payments will enable the monitoring of regulatory caps and provide an indicator of the size of each distribution channel used by an insurer. Statistics on the binder and other fees paid, such as aggregation fees, will provide valuable information regarding the reliance placed on third parties and the total expenditure in each instance. 3. Claims Management This section requests information on the number and value of claims submitted, as well as the number of repudiated and outstanding claims, to enable the monitoring of an insurer s performance in relation to efficient and fair claims handling. 4. Complaints Handling Reporting on complaints management is split between the main sheets and the general sheet as indicated above. The complaints management information will assist in identifying trends, root causes for complaints and areas for improvement relating to products sold or services rendered to the customer. The categories used are aligned with the categories identified as part of the TCF complaints management framework as published in the Discussion Document on Consumer Complaint Management by regulated financial institutions, aligned to the Treating Customers Fairly framework. 5. Add-on/Rider Benefits In order to ensure a complete view of all benefits offered by insurers, it is important to understand the types of ancillary benefits being offered as well as the types of policies to which such benefits are linked. This includes information on bundled and/or combined products. Page 2 of 55
3 The information provided through the CBR s will assist the FSB to identify trends and highlight specific market conduct risks relating to individual insurers as well as the wider industry. It should also provide insurers with important management information to help monitor and manage market conduct risks on an on-going basis. The revised draft CBR s are released for comment. The final version of the CBR s may also be further influenced by changes that may be required due to deliberations on the Insurance Bill, INTRODUCTION, PURPOSE AND SCOPE The purpose of this document is to provide a guide to the revised draft CBR s following consideration of comments received on the previous draft and alignment with proposed SAM reporting templates. The document does not provide detailed feedback on each of the comments received; in most instances the comments have been incorporated into the revised version of the CBR s. This document outlines: the breakdown of the reporting classes; the questions contained in the returns; and an indication of the level of reporting class at which the various questions need to be answered. The above mentioned classes, questions and levels of reporting are set out separately for Life and Non-life insurers in section 4 of the document below. A guide to the terminology used in the returns is attached hereto in two separate documents (for life and for non-life) to serve as supporting documents for the CBR s. 2. REPORTING REQUIREMENTS The final CBR s will be required to be completed electronically and submitted via the Electronic Submission portal on the FSB s website. The CBR s will need to be submitted quarterly, but a two-year phasing-in period will apply during which the reporting period will be bi-annual. All submissions will need to be received via the portal within 60 days after the end of the relevant period. It is accepted that it may not be possible to complete the returns in full or with the adequate level of detail immediately upon implementation. However, the FSB would prefer to accept incomplete returns upfront and monitor progress over time rather than a phased implementation. This will enable the FSB to monitor the progress of individual insurer s with respect to system development, implementation of systems and analysis of data with the submission of each return.

4 3. INVITATION TO COMMENT, PROJECT PILOT AND PLANNED IMPLEMENTATION DATE The practical implementation of the CBR s will have three components. Firstly, all life and non-life insurers are invited to comment on the revised categorisation, level of reporting and questions in the CBR s as contained in this document. Comments must be submitted to the FSB c/o FSB.INSCBRComments@FSB.co.za on or before 18 March In addition, the Deputy Registrar will request SAIA and ASISA to submit the names of insurers who wish to participate in a pilot project to test the functionality and practical effectiveness of this version of the CBR s. The testing period will run concurrently with the comment period. Finally, all feedback from the pilot project will be taken into consideration together with the general comments received from the industry to inform possible further amendments. The planned implementation date for the final version of the CBR s is June Page 4 of 55
