Social progress has been impressive, with a marked fall in poverty and inequality. The fight against extreme poverty has been put at the forefront of the government policy agenda. Since 1993, Brazil has experienced a sharp and continuous decline in inequality, reflecting good labour market performance and successful redistribution policy. The poverty rate has declined by half. This remarkable progress must be continued to further reduce the still high levels of inequality and poverty. Further required action will involve an extension in scale and scope of the highly efficient conditional cash transfer programme Bolsa Familia, which has managed to relieve poverty at relatively low fiscal cost.

BRAZILIAN INSURANCE MARKET OVERVIEW The market supervised by SUSEP is composed by almost 160 companies, 72% of which are insurance companies, 17% are entities exclusively dedicated to offering open private pension schemes and 11% are companies exclusively dedicated to offering capitalization plans. Some Life insurance companies may also offer open private pension schemes.

Insurance premiums in Brazil are concentrated on three lines of businesses: life, automotive (including compulsory insurance for third party liability – DPVAT) and health insurance. Together they account for approximately 84% of the total premium revenues.

By the end of 2006, the total premiums of the market supervised had reached R$ 64.6 billion (US$ 29.6 billion) and the technical provisions, R$ 128.4 billion (US$ 60 billion). With these results, Brazil is the largest Insurance Market in Latin America.
Statistical Data System (Portuguese)
Glossary: Technical and Statistical Terms
This system aims to provide to the public the statistical data of the markets supervised by SUSEP. The data are provided by the industry by the “Formulários de Informações Periódicas - FIP” (Periodical Information Forms) which are subject to alterations due to SUSEP’s further verifications.
The table with the monthly movement of the operations by insurance line, since july/2004, is available in this data base.
Obs.: In 2001, for health insurance, the data of each company were considered until the month of the effective transfer of its control to the ANS (Health National Agency).
-------------------------------------------------
BRAZILIAN INSURANCE MARKET PERSPECTIVES
The economic reforms introduced by the Brazilian government in the last years, mainly the economic stabilization plan, as well as the deregulation process, the opening of the market to foreign insurers and the privatization program had a profound impact on the insurance market, which in the last years evolved from a mere participation of 0.8% in the GDP in 1994 to 2.55% in 2006. Considering capitalization and open private pension schemes, this percentage reached 3.24 %.

-------------------------------------------------
INSURANCE MARKET PARTICIPATION IN THE GDP
These conditions provide a favorable environment for non-life insurance lines, benefited by the growth of economic activities as a whole, as well as for life insurance lines, a protection instrument which had lost its attractiveness during the economic instability period.

-------------------------------------------------
PREMIUMS GROWTH BY LINE
The economic stability brought back also the possibility of adoption of the national currency as a trustworthy value reference. Consequently, the investment-making decision process performed by economic agents became more transparent, increasing confidence and overall credibility in the system.
The increase of the competitiveness and the new opportunities of business as well as the search for operational results, instead of financial results, imposed on the companies the need for more efficiency. Fusions and acquisitions were stimulated, promoting the market consolidation process and operational and scale gains for the companies, resulting in lower premium rates and expansion of activities.
The opening of the market to foreign participants in 1996 has permitted the transfer of capital and the introduction of new products, technologies and knowledge that helped to enhance the performance of the industry.

Regarding specifically to life lines (capitalization-structured products) and pension segments a great expansion could be observed, especially considering the recent performance of two products: the VGBL (“Vida Gerador de Benefícios Livres” or Redeemable Life Insurance) and the PGBL (“Plano Gerador de Benefícos Livres” or Plan Generator of Benefits).
Created in 2001,the VGBL is a life surrender benefit product that unites the outliving character of the annuity with the investment-oriented feature of the variable life insurance, which has been benefited from the stabilized economic outlook more conducive to longer-term savings. The PGBL, precursor of VGBL, is a private pension plan created in 1997 and inspired in the American 401-K. Both have special tax benefits.
By the end of 2006, VGBL total premiums had reached R$ 15,3 billion (US$ 7.0 billion) and R$ 41.74 billion (US$ 19.5 billion) in provisions (funds), representing 66.7% of all life insurance premiums in that year. In the other hand, the PGBL continued its great performance since its launching, achieving R$ 4.43 billion (US$ 2.0 billion) in premiums and R$ 27.59 billion (US$ 12.91 billion) in provisions (funds).

The possibility of the maintenance of this positive perspectives are also relevant considering that these products are financial saving instruments that could be used as an alternative to the Official Social Security, which reform is permanently being discussed by society.
Nevertheless, despite of the changes occurred since the Real Plan in 1994, the market needed products to redeem the confidence of the consumers, deeply affected during economical instability period, addressing both high-income and low-income classes.
-------------------------------------------------
MODERNIZATION PROCESS
In 2003 SUSEP started a modernization process based in international standards adopted in the most developed markets, notably the IAIS Core Principles. The idea resides not only in introducing innovation concepts in the Brazilian insurance market but prepare it to the reinsurance opening.
Since the beginning of this process, more than 500 rules were revised and a great number was published, focusing mainly in corporate governance and internal controls, accountability of directors, the strengthening of the roles of actuaries and auditors and the certification of employees.
Also, a great number of changes were made in order to stimulate saving plans’ consumers as, for instance: (i) a new tax regime that encourages the maintenance of pension plans resources in the long term; (ii) shield provisions in order to protect the policyholders’ interest; (iii) the possibility of using these provisions as guarantees in housing financing; (iv) the possibility of updating biometric tables during the deferral period in order to reduce actuarial risks.
In general, the perspectives point out to a more mature insurance market with great probabilities of growth in a near future.
Potential niches can be observed and exploited in the Brazilian Market, like microinsurance and internal credit lines. On the other hand, government policies effects on income distribution and welfare will have a positive effect on the Brazilian insurance market.
-------------------------------------------------
THE OPENING OF THE REINSURANCE MARKET
On January 15, 2007, Complementary Law 126 was published in Brazil. It eliminates the previous state monopoly. Previously, since 1939, reinsurance in Brazil was solely the domain of the government, via the Brazilian Institute of Reinsurance (IRB Brazil Re).
The IRB Brazil Re is organized as an equally owned partnership between the federal government and the insurance companies. Its creation was primarily aimed at increasing the domestic insurance companies’ capacity for retaining business, as a way of lowering the country’s outflows of foreign currency. Additionally, the IRB accumulated regulatory responsibilities on reinsurance, coinsurance and retrocession operations and undertook actions to promote the development of the insurance business in the country.
Now, under Law 126, the regulation of co-insurance, reinsurance and retrocession transactions and their intermediation will be the task for the insurance regulator, i.e., the National Private Insurance Council (“CNSP”) and the supervision is to be taken care of by the insurance supervisory body, i.e., the Brazilian Private Insurance Superintendence (“SUSEP”).
The Act contemplates three different types of reinsurance companies being authorized to operate in Brazil:
(i) the local reinsurer: namely, the reinsurer with registered offices in Brazil and incorporated as a corporation [S.A. (Sociedade por Ações)] with the sole purpose of conducting reinsurance and retrocession transactions;
(ii) the admitted reinsurer: namely, the reinsurer with registered offices abroad and with a representative office in Brazil, which, in compliance with the requirements of the Complementary Law and the rules applicable to reinsurance and retrocession activities, has registered as such with SUSEP for the conduction of reinsurance and retrocession transactions; and
(iii) the eventual reinsurer: namely, the foreign reinsurance company with registered offices abroad without a representative office in Brazil, which, upon complying with the requirements established in the Complementary Law and with the rules applicable to reinsurance and retrocession activities, has registered as such with SUSEP to conduct reinsurance and retrocession transactions.
In this context, the IRB will continue operating in the market only as a local reinsurer.
Following approval of new regulations and operational guidelines, we expect to see a greater portion of the risks in Brazil being reinsured by global programs. The consequences will include increased reinsurance capacity, more specialization in the reinsurance market, new products and potential price decreases due to the market’s newfound competitiveness. A clear picture will only emerge, however, once full regulations are established.

10k & Annual Report Comparison

...On an annual basis, companies such as Procter & Gamble are required to file two well-known types of reports: the 10K filing and the Annual Report. The purpose behind both of these documents is to monitor a company’s performance for the past year. Stakeholders in the respective companies can acquire this publicly provided data and analyze the information for different purposes. While 10K filings and annual reports contain similar data, their perspectives differ. For example, consider that the 10K is a financial fill-in-the-blank form whereas an annual report is a marketing document. The goal of the annual report is to persuade and inform current and potential stockholders. It is sent out to shareholders when companies hold their annual meetings to elect directors. Ultimately, this report serves as a benefit to a company because it has free reign over its content and design. On the contrary, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission requires 10k filings to inform about the company, monitor finances and prevent fraud. Both documents are effective considering their particular audiences; 10K’s are for a financial audience and annual reports are for the general public stockholders. Inherent differences such as layout, design details, tone, and content are apparent in Procter & Gamble’s 10K SEC filing and their annual report. Procter & Gamble’s annual report effectively uses verbal and visual strategies to catch the reader’s attention. Its colorful front page displays...

...researchandmarkets.com/reports/687309/ Attock Petroleum Ltd 2008 Annual Report Description: An Annual Report provides a detailed look at the financial results for the prior twelve months of operations. Reporting requirements vary by country, but almost every Annual Report will include: - Chairmans Statement - Income Statement - Cash Flow Statement - Balance Sheet - Notes to the Accounts - Auditors Report. Annual Reports may also include a marketing/product segmentation section, organizational charts and graphs. Filing dates vary by country, as does the date by which the report must be filed by. For example, many U.S. and European companies have a year-end filing date of December 31, and their Annual Reports tend to be filed between April 1 and June 30. Japanese companies tend to file their report during the month of July, and Australian companies file starting September 15th.

Comparison on Bc and Alberta Post Secondary Reporting

...Post-secondary Education in the West: British Columbia vs Alberta My “Run-off” is between the departments of Advanced Education in British Columbia and in Alberta. The Advanced Education (or post-secondary education) programs fall within the responsibility of similar Ministries in both provinces. I reviewed the fiscal cycle for 2012-2013 which was the latest period for which actual results were available in both provinces. During the period between planning and accountability reporting, the Ministry portfolio in both provinces changed slightly, however, advanced education and training remained the primary focus of the Ministry in both provinces. In 2012 – planning year for 2012-2013 - post-secondary education fell under the BC Ministry of Advanced Education, which changed to the Ministry of Advanced Education, Innovation and Technology by the time the results were reported in 2012-2013. In Alberta, during the planning part of the accountability cycle in 2012, post-secondary education was the responsibility of the Ministry of Advanced Education and Technology but changed slightly to be the Ministry of Advanced Education and Enterprise by the reporting time in 2013. In all cases, the Ministries had the responsibility for the oversight of the publically funded universities and other post-secondary institutes within their respective provinces. Since the portfolios changed slightly from planning to reporting, I focused only on the post-secondary objectives, measures, and...

...suggests, an executive summary summarizes, or reviews the main points of, a longer document or report for a reader that does not have time to read the entire report. An effective executive summary analyzes and summarizes the most important points in the paper or report, and will often make a recommendation based on the analysis. Executive summaries are “stand alone” documents that are almost always read independently of the reports they summarize. When writing executive summaries, always remember who will be reading it. You must take into account that the main purpose of your document, main topic and idea and why you need to showcase it. Remember we’re doing it from a marketing point of view. So here are some pointers to consider when writing your summary: * Who will read your executive summary? Sometimes your executive summary may have an “intended” audience: your professor might require you to write it for a CEO, department head, or supervisor, for example. On other assignments, your audience won’t have a specific identity, but always keep in mind that the reader of an executive summary needs to know all of the important information in the main document without reading the actual document. Even if you know that your instructor will be reading everything that you submit, write the executive summary as a “stand alone” document. * What is the main document’s main topic, theme, or idea? Most reports have a “thesis” or central point that they are seeking to communicate.

Lakeside Company Case 6

...is beginning to analyze the transactions that occur in the client's merchandise procurement system. Within this testing, he is especially interested in determining the extent to which employees comply with control procedures while carrying out various required activities. This evaluation will influence the assessment of control risk and therefore, the nature, timing, and extent of substantive tests to be performed by the firm in this area. Lakeside leases a perpetual inventory record accounting system from DATA Processing System of Richmond, an outside service organization. The initial entries are made by the Controller's division of Lakeside, and on a weekly basis the transactions are uploaded through DATA Processing Systems' website. Reports are then generated, and one copy of the current inventory balances goes to Edward Thomas, who is responsible for acquiring merchandise, while a second list is conveyed to Benjamin Rogers, president of the company.

Unrecorded Liabilities Accrual Procedures

...to the GL balance will be made in that quarter. If the calculated adjustment results in greater than a $10 million change, the segment accounting team will use judgment determine the dollar amount of the adjustment to be made. Beginning with Q3 FY14, the review is completed in the first month of the quarter instead of the second month of the quarter as had been previously done. The estimate for unrecorded liabilities is determined utilizing the report RB0250_US “Invoice Accrual Report.” This report displays, for a given period and restrictions, the amount of invoices that are posted to the general ledger in a period subsequent to the date of the invoice (i.e. in SAP, the document date (which represents invoice date) is in a period prior to the posting date.) Prior to Q3 FY13, the estimated accrual was based on a six month history of the “Invoice Accrual Report” and was calculated on the previous two quarters. Beginning in Q3 FY13, the estimated accrual was based on a trailing 12 month history of the “Invoice Accrual Report.” In Q1 of each fiscal year, the assumptions used in the calculation of the estimate of unrecorded liabilities are evaluated; these assumptions include any accruals done by other business areas that impact ABC Inc. segment that should be removed from our calculation of the estimated accrual, as well...
