​​​​​PBR is Here- Are You and Your Company Ready?


PBR and Insurers must make important decisions:

  • Whether to use the "Company-Wide Exemption", if applicable 
  • Risk drivers to focus on, study, and understand in Product Design, Valuation, and Risk Management
  • How to implement and perform new complex processes and establish adequate reporting and controls
  • How to drive cultural changes to lower barriers between functional silos that exist at many companies


New PBR Governance rules REQUIRE that the Board and Senior Management:

  • Understand what goes on "under the hood" evidenced by regular reports from Senior Management and active discussion and responsive decision-making that is documented in corresponding "Board Minutes"
  • Provide adequate processes and controls over the PBR Valuation Function
  • Ensure that Valuation staff are Knowledgeable and Adequately Trained
  • Comply with the Model Audit Rule, explaining outcomes and deficiencies, to external stakeholders
