Simplified Solution for IFRS 17

Working together to deliver value to your business

IFRS 17 has increased the requirements for financial and regulatory reporting at a time when many insurers are already dealing with staff burnout and additional reporting for ESG, E-23 and other standards. Our Simplified Solution for IFRS 17 (SS17), a managed service, provides a comprehensive and accelerated solution to outsource your IFRS 17 accounting and reporting so your staff can focus on your core business and financial reporting.

We’ve designed a suite of tools and processes to simplify the implementation process. You simply give us your input data, and we provide you the IFRS 17 reports you need for your financial statements, including disclosures and regulatory reporting. This addresses your resource constraints, supports data quality audits and provides stability in reporting. We can also support you in getting this information audited by your internal and external auditors.

With a proven track record serving numerous insurance companies, we’ve built a deep understanding of many IFRS 17 intricacies, including specialization in both the General Measurement Model and Premium Allocation Approach. We have a team of actuaries, accountants, and data and IT professionals to help us deliver IFRS 17 reports to our public and private clients. Above all, we’ve automated and driven efficiency across the whole process by leveraging our proprietary technology platform.
