Disaggregation of risk adjustment

Presentation in the statement of income –Reinsurance

Adjustments of estimate would take place on an annual basis

An insurer is not required to include the entire change in the risk adjustment for non-financial risk in the insurance service result. Instead, it can choose to split the amount between the insurance service resultant insurance finance income or expenses.

An entity may present the income or expenses from a group of reinsurance contracts held, other than insurance finance income or expenses, as a single amount; or the entity may present separately the amounts recovered from the reinsurer and an allocation of the premiums paid that together give a net amount equal to that single amount

The entity shall apply its choice of accounting policy to all groups of insurance contracts it issues and groups of reinsurance contracts it holds.
