ORSA: Design and Implementation

Bogie Ozdemir, Vice President at Sun Life Financial where he is developing enterprise ORSA, provides a straightforward approach to the understanding, management, and implementation of this requirement. You will learn how to build a practical implementation plan, utilise existing resources and capabilities to support your ORSA, and learn how to manage the business impact and benefits of ORSA implementation.

The lack of prescriptive guidance around ORSA brings with it its own set of challenges. Aimed at ensuring insurers have a sound understanding of their individual risk profile, and have the appropriate measures in place to address them, ORSA requires insurers to undergo a rigorous self-assessment and align capital requirements accordingly.

• The Requirements of OSFI
• ORSA Key Elements
• Enterprise Risk Management Frameworks
• Using the Three Lines of Defence Framework
• Available Capital under ORSA
• Risk Appetite
• Stress Testing
• Strategic Impact
• Utilizing ORSA in Effective Risk and Capital Management
• Co-managing Regulatory and Economic Capital
• Enhancing Risk Appetite and incorporating Earnings at Risk
