ACTUARIAL OPINION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE AUDITED ACCOUNTS ON ACCOUNT OF GENERAL BUSINESS
(International Insurance Act: Section 15(3))
(To be completed in English language or with certified translation attached)
Name of the Company_______________________________________
I, _______________ am the Actuary of _________________________
I have examined the actuarial assumptions and actuarial methods used in determining future policy obligations and expenses, deferred acquisition expenses, and related actuarial items in the audited accounts of the company, as prepared by the company to accord with internationally accepted accounting standards, from the period beginning _________ to __________.
My examination included such review of the actuarial assumptions and actuarial methods and of the underlying basic records and such tests of the actuarial calculations as I considered necessary.
In my opinion, the amounts carried in the balance sheet on account of unamortised acquisition expenses and on account of other future policy obligations and expenses are based on actuarial assumptions which are appropriate to the financial statements of the company prepared in accordance with internationally accepted accounting standards and computed by sound actuarial methods consistently applied and are fairly stated.
Provisions have been made for all actuarial reserve and related items which ought prudently to be established.
