A firm must deposit with the PRA a statement regarding financial reinsurance in relation to any contract of insurance under which general insurance business has been ceded by the firm where:

1. (1) the value placed on future payments in respect of the contract in the return for the financial year in question is not commensurate with the economic value provided by that contract, after taking account of the level of risk transferred; or
2. (2) there are terms or foreseeable contingencies (other than the insured event) that have the potential to affect materially the value placed on the contract in the firm’s balance sheet at, or any time after, the end of the financial year in question,
3. and the statement must include the following information:
4. (3) the financial year of the return in which the contract was reported in the return;
5. (4) the financial effect of the contract of the insurer’s capital resources as shown in the return for the financial year in question;

4.26

In determining whether a contract of insurance meets one or both the conditions in 4.25, the firm must:

1. (1) treat as part of a contract any agreements, correspondence (including side letters) or understandings that amend or modify, or purport to amend or modify, the contract or its operation; and
2. (2) consider whether the contract meets the condition in 4.25(1) when considered together with one or more other contracts of insurance entered into between:
1. (a) the firm and the reinsurer under the first contract; or

4.28

No information need be supplied pursuant to 4.25 or 4.27 in respect of a contract of insurance or financing arrangement if, when it is considered in aggregate with all such contracts with the same reinsurer or counterparty or any other person with whom the firm has entered into a contract:

1. (1) A is less than 1% of B in the return for the financial year in question; and
2. (2) the firm expects A to remain less than 1% of B for the foreseeable future,
3. where:
4. (3) A is the financial effect on the firm’s capital resources as a result of the existence of the contract(s); and
5. (4) B is the firm’s total gross amount of technical provisions.

4.29

Where the statement required under 4.25 and 4.27 includes information about a contract of insurance in respect of which information has been included in the statement required by 4.22 relating to the financial year in question, the firm must include in the statement under 4.25 and 4.27 a cross-reference to that other information.
