General comments:
This section relates to annual submission of information for individual entities.
This template shall only be reported in relation to the direct business by insurance companies that have Variable Annuities portfolios.
Variable annuities are unit–linked life insurance contracts with investment guarantees which, in exchange for single or regular premiums, allow the policyholder to benefit from the upside of the unit but be partially or totally protected when the unit loses value.
If Variable Annuities policies are split between two insurance undertakings, for instance a life company and a non–life company for the Variable Annuities guarantee, the company with the guarantee shall report this template. Only one row per product shall be reported.

C0140 | Economic result with hedging | [F1The ‘economic result’ that the guarantee of the policies has generated during the reporting year considering the result of the hedging strategy. Where hedging is performed for a portfolio of products, for instance in cases where hedge instruments may not be allocated to specific products, the undertaking shall allocate the effect of hedging to the different products using the weight of each product in the ‘Economic result without hedging’ (C0110). This is not to be reported in case the undertaking has no hedging program itself, but only reinsures the guarantee part.] |
