  • 2019 - NAIC (LATF) - Conference Call
    • Birny Birnbaum (Center for Economic Justice—CEJ) said AG 49 was developed to address the issue of companies using unrealistic crediting rates and providing less misleading information to consumers.
      • He said despite using lower crediting rates and higher policy fees, the illustrations are producing significantly higher accumulation values.
      • He said the bonuses and indexed crediting multipliers by creating illustrations appear to be perpetual cash machines.
      • He said the idea that more disclosures will address the problem is incorrect.
      • He noted that disclosure is not an actuarial issue and that consumer testing is essential.
      • He recommended going back to the Life Insurance and Annuities (A) Committee to make them aware that the scope of the issue is broader than initially thought.
  • 2020 0521 - NAIC - Life Actuarial (A) Task Force Conference Call
  • Report of the Life and Health Actuarial (Technical) Task Force to the Life Insurance (A) Committee Chicago, Illinois - June 23, 1993
  • 13. Non-Guaranteed Element Annual Statement Interrogatories
    • The actuarial task force is monitoring work being done by the American Academy of Actuaries group considering this area.
    • The task force decided at its June 1993 meeting this project should be combined with Project 14 "Disclosure and Sales Illustration Practices."
    • Accordingly, the actuarial task force recommends that this be deleted as a separate project in June 1993. This project is a priority 2 project.
  • 14. Disclosure and Sales Illustration Practices
    • The actuarial task force is monitoring work being done by the Society of Actuaries and the American Academy of Actuaries and the Actuarial Standards Board in this area and is also monitoring the work of various states covering this area.
    • Many problems with respect to illustrations exist at the present time.
    • The California Insurance Department has developed a proposed regulation which might be studied as the basis for a model regulation (Attachment One-H).
    • This project is a priority 1 project.
  • 10. Recommend deletion of Project 13 "Non-Guaranteed Element Annual Statement Interrogatories" from the actuarial task force's agenda because any remaining work can be done under Project 14 "Disclosure and Sales Illustration Practices."
