Existing technical details on valuation of assets and liabilities, as well as the computation of financial resources and risk requirements in the Insurance (Valuation and Capital) Regulations 2004, MAS Notice 319, and Guidelines ID 1/04 have been moved to this Notice.
Section 1 of this Notice applies to all licensed insurers. Sections 2 to 5 of this Notice apply to all licensed insurers except captive insurers, marine mutual insurers and special purpose reinsurance vehicles (“SPRVs”). Section 6 of this Notice applies to captive insurers, marine mutual insurers and SPRVs only.
