9 What can we expect in our 2013 reserving exercises? 9
10 What can we expect in our 2013 reserving exercises? (1) Deterioration in loss ratio KPIs? 100.0% Trend in average written premium 98.0% 96.0% 94.0% 92.0% 90.0% 88.0% 86.0% 84.0% To allow for April reforms 10
11 What can we expect in our 2013 reserving exercises? (1) Deterioration in loss ratio KPIs? 100.0% Trend in average written premium 98.0% 96.0% 94.0% 92.0% 90.0% 88.0% 86.0% 84.0% To allow for April reforms Confused.com / Towers Watson Car Insurance Price Index 11
12 What can we expect in our 2013 reserving exercises? (2) Prior year reserve releases? Reserve releases for 2012 possible (in due course) Likely to be minimal impact for 2011 and prior However 12
13 What can we expect in our 2013 reserving exercises? (2) Prior year reserve releases? Reserve releases for 2012 possible (in due course) Likely to be minimal impact for 2011 and prior However late development of claims We have observed very strong development in the last 12 to 18 calendar months in the reported claim numbers and incurred claim amounts for accident years 2009 and 2010 in particular on a number of Private Car accounts. We understand that this late development has been attributed by those insurers affected to a late wave of claims management company activity... Possible strengthening of some prior years? 13
14 What can we expect in our 2013 reserving exercises? (3) 2013 development pattern and KPI impacts? Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 14
15 What can we expect in our 2013 reserving exercises? (3) 2013 development pattern and KPI impacts? Q1 Q2 Increase in reported frequency to date Is this simply advanced notification (i.e. a change in development pattern)? Or a genuine deterioration higher ultimate? Or more speculative notifications (anecdotal evidence) that will fall away? Increase in claimants per claim (for similar reasons) and so an increase in average cost per claim but perhaps no change in average cost per claimant for genuine claims? Q3 Q4 15
16 What can we expect in our 2013 reserving exercises? (3) 2013 development pattern and KPI impacts? Q1 Q2 Q3 April reforms not implemented on the same day, so some blurring of impact expected over the first month of Q2 Solicitor business models might be severely threatened by a sharp drop in RTA portal legal costs, personal injury business may become less attractive for them, qualified one-way cost shifting so perhaps a fall in frequency due to a fall in the number of discretionary claims? and perhaps more claims dropping out of the portal? Anticipated reduction in severity of smaller claims (within the RTA portal, i.e. 1,000-10,000 claimant basis) For larger claims, perhaps not a significant impact? Q4 16
17 What can we expect in our 2013 reserving exercises? (3) 2013 development pattern and KPI impacts? Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Vertical extension of portal to 25,000 (claimant basis) was originally expected in April 2013 but delayed to this summer, so some blurring of impact over Q3 Larger claims brought into portal process, so similar impact to that seen for smaller claims may be expected on claims development: Timetable for stages of a claim with partial payments at each stage, so advanced development of paid claims Reduced time to settlement, so advanced development of settled numbers and paid on settled claims Legal fees fixed and reduced (to be accompanied by revised legal costs outside of the portal) so reduced severity of claims in the 10,000-25,000 band but perhaps an incentive to inflate claims above 25,000, so increased propensity of claims to make it to the next layer up? Further layers required for analysing injury claims? 17
18 What can we expect in our 2013 reserving exercises? (3) 2013 development pattern and KPI impacts? Hopefully nothing else new to worry about this quarter! Q1 although we might expect continuing distortions in development patterns due to a bedding-in of process changes Q2 Q3 Q4 18
19 What can we expect in our 2013 reserving exercises? (4) Additional costs? Q1 Q2 Q3 Additional cost of a change in the Ogden discount rate Additional cost of claims settling as PPOs Q4 19
20 Periodical Payment Orders (PPOs) 2013 Towers Watson. All rights reserved.
21 PPOs what do you need to know? Fundamentally changing UK motor insurance as we know it implications for liability and medical malpractice too 21
22 PPOs what do you need to know? Extremely uncertain 30% 25% 20% 15% 10% 5% 0% PPO reserves (settled PPOs only) as a proportion of UK motor market reserves 22
23 New areas of risk for GI practitioners Interest rate Inflation Mortality Credit Asset matching 23

33 LTG package Solvency II Debate raging in the life industry for some time One of the principal reasons behind SII delays Risk-free discount rate Bank of England real yield curve as at March % -0.50% -1.00% -1.50% -2.00% -2.50% -3.00% -3.50% Maturity in Years 33
34 LTG package Mitigation options do exist Matching adjustment based on the return on assets actually backing the liabilities assets must be ring fenced availability of matching assets? Complicated Onerous 34
35 LTG package General Insurance Industry needs to be represented in the debate Take part in the LTG Assessment Participate in the LTGA exercise but not within the demanding timescales Understand the issues and start planning now 35
