In determining the fulfilment cash flows, the Company uses estimates and assumptions considering a range of scenarios which have commercial substance and give a good representation of possible outcomes. The Company’s CSM is a component of the insurance asset or liability for the group of insurance contracts and results in no income at initial recognition. The unit of account for CSM is on a group of contracts basis consistent with the level of aggregation specified above. If the fulfilment cash flows are allocated to the group of insurance contracts, any previously recognized insurance acquisition cash flows and any cash flows arising from the contracts at the date of initial recognition in total are a net outflow, then the group of contracts is considered to be onerous. A loss from onerous insurance contracts is recognized in profit and loss immediately. The Company establishes the groups at initial recognition and may add contracts to the groups after the end of a reporting period, however, the Company does not reassess the composition of the groups subsequently. In the subsequent periods, the carrying amount of a group of insurance contracts at each reporting date is the sum of the liability for remaining coverage (“LRC”) and the liability for incurred claims (“LIC”). The LRC comprises the fulfilment cash flows that relate to services to be provided in the future and any remaining CSM at that date. The LIC comprises the fulfilment cash flows for incurred claims and expenses that have not yet been paid. The fulfilment cash flows at the reporting dates are measured using the current estimates of expected cash flows and current discount rates. The carrying amount of CSM at end of the reporting period is adjusted to reflect the following changes under the GMM for contracts without direct participation features: (a) effect of new contracts added to the group; (b) interest accreted on the carrying amount of CSM, measured at locked-in rate; (c) effect of any currency exchange differences on the CSM; (d) changes in fulfilment cash flows that relate to future services (non-financial), except for loss component; and (e) recognition of insurance revenue for services provided in the year. The CSM is recognized into insurance revenue over the duration of the group of insurance contracts based on the respective coverage units. The locked-in discount rate is the weighted average of the rates applicable at the date of initial recognition of contracts that joined a group over a 12-month period. The discount rate used for accretion of interest on the CSM is determined using the bottom-up approach. The changes in fulfilment cash flows relating to future services (non-financial) that adjust the CSM comprise of: • Experience adjustments that arise from the difference between the premium receipts (and any related cash flows such as insurance acquisition cash flows and insurance premium taxes) and the expected amounts at the beginning of the period. Differences related to premiums received (or due) related to current or past services are recognized immediately in profit or loss while differences related to premiums received (or due) for future services are adjusted against the CSM. • Changes in estimates of the present value of future cash flows in the LRC, except those relating to the time value of money and changes in financial risk that are recognized in profit or loss and OCI. • Differences between any investment component expected to become payable in the period and the actual investment component that becomes payable in the period. Those differences are determined by comparing (i) the actual investment component that becomes payable in the period with (ii) the payment in the period that was expected at the start of the period plus any insurance finance income or expenses related to that expected payment before it becomes payable. The same applies to a policyholder loan that becomes repayable. • Changes in the risk adjustment for non-financial risk that relate to future service. A loss is created when there is an increase in fulfilment cash flows that exceeds the carrying amount of the CSM. Once a change in fulfilment cash flows reduces CSM to nil, the excess establishes a loss which is recognized in profit and loss immediately. Any subsequent decrease in the fulfilment cash flows will reverse the losses previously recognized in profit or loss. Any remaining loss will be released based on a systematic allocation of subsequent changes relating to future service in the fulfilment cash flows (refer to Presentation and Disclosure below). For contracts with direct participation features under the VFA measurement model, the cash flows impacting policyholders and shareholders are treated differently. The change in the policyholders’ share of the fair value of underlying items does not impact CSM. The change in the effect of the time value of money and financial risk not arising from the underlying items, such as financial guarantees, adjust the CSM. The change in fulfilment cash flows that do not vary with the return of underlying items and that do not relate to future service does not impact CSM consistent with the GMM. In contrast, under the VFA measurement model, the change in the amount of shareholders’ share of the fair value of underlying items does impact CSM, except to the extent that the Company has elected the risk mitigation option. The Company uses derivatives, non-derivative financial instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss, and reinsurance contracts to mitigate the financial risk arising from interest rate guarantees in certain contracts with direct participation features. Under the risk mitigation option, the Company recognizes changes in the shareholders’ share of the underlying items and the changes in fulfilment cash flows in profit or loss or OCI instead of adjusting CSM. For groups of insurance contracts applying the VFA measurement model, in addition to those conditions (both loss recognition and reversal) previously described for groups of contracts applying the GMM, a loss in profit or loss is also recognized when declines in the shareholder’s share of fair value of underlying items exceeds the carrying value of CSM. Any subsequent increase in the shareholder’s share of fair value of underlying items will reverse the losses previously recognized in profit or loss. 226 | 2022AnnualReport | NotestoConsolidatedFinancialStatements
