Qz-5 (6.3 Reinsurer Failure):Relevant Comments: provide any further relevant detail(s) related to the REINSURER FAILURE example

  • Action depends on cause of failure: here reinsurer failure had been buidling prior to CalcDt
    • Failure AFTER CalcDt simply provided further evidence of conditions existing prior to CalcDt
  • If failure was due to a catstrophe, path through decision tree would be: EWDP
    • In other words, final action would be to inform only.
