Page 10.42 – Encumbered assets

For the purposes of these returns, an asset should be treated as encumbered if a security interest has been granted. A security interest may be created in many ways, including if an asset has been pledged or if it is subject to any form of arrangement to secure, collateralise or credit-enhance any on-balance sheet or off-balance sheet transaction that it cannot be freely withdrawn. Assets pledged that are subject to any restrictions on withdrawal, such as assets that require prior approval before withdrawal or replacement by other assets should be considered encumbered.

Examples of encumbered assets include: providing deposits against reinsurance obligations, mortgaging real estate or derivatives.

Assets used in securities lending activities should be recorded on lines 40 and 45 of this page.

Please refer to "Section V - Jurisdictional Requirements" before creating and reporting a security interest.

Line 03 – Upper limit of catastrophe program

Upper limit or total limit of the catastrophe program reflects the amount above which there is no reinsurance protection, e.g. catastrophe coverage of $350 million excess of $20 million would have an upper limit of $370 million.

Line 04 – Attachment point for catastrophe coverage

The attachment point is the amount that is retained before catastrophe coverage applies to the first loss.

Line 05 – Amount of retention within the catastrophe coverage layers

The retention within the catastrophe coverage refers to any portion of the program that is not 100% placed above the attachment point.

The reinstatement cost would be based on the catastrophe coverage(s) that would be impacted within the identified catastrophe exposure.

Pages 85.40 and 85.45 – Insurers licensed in Quebec (based on location of risk)

These pages apply to foreign insurers licensed in the province of Quebec only.

Pages 85.40 and 85.45 have been produced by the Autorité des marchés financiers ("AMF") further to amendments to Part XIII of the Insurance Companies Act, S.C. 1991, c. 47 ("ICA"), which came into force on January 1, 2010.

As a result of the amendments to the Canadian regulatory framework, foreign insurers must now report only risks insured in Canada in their P&C return. Under Part XIII of the ICA, reporting of regulatory data on a foreign entity's operations must now be based on the location of the entity's insurance business rather than the location of risks insured.

The AMF's supervision of your activities in Québec is based on the definition of "insurer" under section 1(a) of An Act respecting insurance, CQLR, c. A-32^{Footnote 1} (the "Act"). This definition has not been modified. Therefore, the amendments to the ICA do not affect the obligation of foreign entities to comply with provincial requirements.

Section 74 of the Act stipulates that every insurer must maintain adequate assets to guarantee the performance of its obligations in Québec. These pages are intended to ensure compliance with that requirement. They must therefore be completed by all foreign insurers licensed in Québec based on location of risk, and should thus include financial data on all risks located in Quebec, whether insured within or outside Canada. All risks located outside Quebec should therefore be excluded.

Amounts reported on page 85.40 should be based on the legacy Canadian IFRS 4 accounting standard.

Insurers licensed in the province of Quebec

17. Insurance in the "property insurance" class is insurance whereby the insurer undertakes to indemnify the insured against loss of or damage to property, to the extent that the insurance does not cover property that is more specifically covered by another class of insurance.
18. Insurance in the "boiler and machinery insurance" class is insurance providing one or more of the following protections:
    1. Insurance whereby the insurer undertakes to indemnify the insured against material loss or damage sustained by the insured by reason of the explosion or rupture of a boiler or any other pressure vessel, including any mechanism, component or accessory incidental to its operation, or material loss or damage resulting from an accident in the course of its operation.
