1. Principal Activities of the Company

JSC “Russian Re” (the Company) was registered in the Russian Federation on 11 February 1994. The Company operates on the basis of License of the Bank of Russia No. PS 0235 of 3 September 2015. The license is issued for an unlimited period. The license is issued for reinsurance activity. During 2019 and 2018 the license was not renewed.

As at 31 December 2019 and 31 December 2018, the Company has a legal form of a "joint stock company". As at 31 December 2019, the shareholders holding a more than 5% interest in the share capital include: Chubb Russia Investments Limited (UK) - 23.34%, Catlin Underwriting Agencies Limited (UK) - 22.5%, Andrey A.

AXA SA (France) holds a 100% interest in Catlin Underwriting Agencies Limited (UK). The shares of AXA SA are traded publicly on the Paris stock exchange. As at 31 December 2019 and 31 December 2018, the Company does not have any branches opened in the territory of the Russian Federation and foreign countries. As at 31 December 2019 and 31 December 2018, the Company has one representative office located in the Russian Federation in Vladivostok. A representative office is a separate division of the Company that does not have the status of a legal entity. The representative office is involved in representation of the Company’s interests, it does not carry out reinsurance operations, business activities and is not an independent reporting entity. As at 31 December 2019, the Company does not have representative offices opened in foreign countries (as at 31 December 2018, the Company had a representative office outside the territory of the Russian Federation in the Republic of Ukraine). The Company’s registered address is: 19/1 Lyalin Pereulok, Moscow, 105062. The Company’s place of business is: 19/1 Lyalin Pereulok, Moscow, 105062. The average number of the Company’s employees as at 31 December 2019 was 27 (2018: 28). The financial statements are presented in thousands of Russian roubles, which are the Company's functional and presentation currency.

2. Operating Environment of the Company

The economy of the Russian Federation continues to display certain characteristics of an emerging market. These characteristics include, in particular, inconvertibility of the national currency in most countries outside of Russia. The current Russian tax, currency and customs legislation is subject to varying interpretations and frequent changes. Russia continues development of the legal, tax and administrative infrastructure to comply with the market economy requirements. The economic reforms conducted by the Government are aimed at modernization of the Russian economy, development of high-tech productions, enhancement of labour productivity and competitiveness of the Russian products on the world market. Starting from March 2014 the US, EU and some other countries imposed several sets of sanctions against certain Russian officials, businessmen and companies. The EU prolonged economic sanctions against Russia until 31 July 2020. These sanctions caused restricted access of certain Russian companies to the international capital markets and exports. The official US Dollar exchange rate set by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation depreciated from RUB 69.4706 to RUB 61.9057 per USD 1. The currently existing uncertainty in respect of potential deterioration of the operating environment has an influence on the future financial position and activities of the Company. Management of the Company believes it is taking all the

necessary measures to support the sustainability and further development of business operations of the Company in these circumstances. In July 2019, the international rating agency S&P Global Ratings confirmed Russia's sovereign credit rating in foreign currency at BBB-with stable outlook.

In August 2019, the international rating agency Fitch Ratings upgraded long-term foreign- and local-currency issuer default ratings of the Russian Federation (IDRs) to BBB with positive outlook.

In February 2019, the international rating agency Moody's Investors Service revised upwards the sovereign credit rating of the Russian Federation to Baa3, with stable outlook.

As at 31 December 2019, the Central Bank’s key refinancing rate equalled 6.25% per annum (as at 31 December 2018 – 7.75% per annum).

The future economic direction of the Russian Federation is largely dependent upon the effectiveness of economic, financial and monetary measures undertaken by the Government, together with development of tax, legal, regulatory, and political systems. The state of the Russian economy is characterized by moderate inflation rates.

3. Basis of Presentation

General principles These annual financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting (financial) reporting rules for insurance companies established in the Russian Federation and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), including all previously adopted standards and interpretations, for the year ended 31 December 2019 (hereinafter, “the financial statements"). Basis for presentation of financial statements These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention for measurement of assets and liabilities, adjusted for fair value remeasurement of investment property carried at fair value through profit or loss and premises and equipment included in the group "buildings and structures" carried at revalued amount with changes recorded in other comprehensive income. The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements, and the amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Influence of estimates and assumptions The Company does not have any judgments that would have a significant influence on the amounts reflected in the financial statements that can be selected by the Company within the framework of applicable industry-specific accounting standards. The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements, and the amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Judgments that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements and estimates that can cause a significant adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next financial year include:

- Valuation of liabilities under reinsurance contracts; - Impairment of accounts receivable;

17

Fair value measurement of non-financial assets; - Tax legislation; - Recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Main actuarial assumptions used for measurement of liabilities under non-life insurance contracts The following methods and assumptions are used to calculate the provision for unearned premium or unearned premium reserve (UPR): The "1/8th" method. It is assumed that all risks accepted during one quarter are accepted in the middle of this quarter, have a duration equal to a positive integer number of quarters, the risk is distributed evenly throughout the entire period of the contract, and the effective term is determined based on the period of the insurer’s liability under insurance contracts. The ultimate liability is calculated as the amount of the liability calculation base multiplied by the ratio of the number of unexpired semi-quarters of the effective term to the number of quarters of the effective term multiplied by 2. The "pro rata temporis" method applied to the liability calculation base assumes an even distribution of risk over the term of the contract. If a reinsurance contract became effective before the reporting date and was not terminated at the reporting date, the amount of the liability is calculated as the amount of the liability calculation base multiplied by the ratio of the number of unexpired days of the contract to the effective term of the contract. Loss provisions were estimated using the following actuarial methods: expected loss method, chain ladder method, modified chain ladder method, Bornhuetter-Ferguson method, Modified Bornhuetter-Ferguson method, analysis of the number and amount of major losses. The most significant in terms of the amount of provisions are the following actuarial assumptions: on the predicted value of the loss ratio for the expected loss (EL) and Bornhuetter-Ferguson (BF) methods, on the limits of applicability of the chain-ladder method, on the number and amount of major losses already incurred but not yet reported. Key approaches to valuation of financial instruments The Company determines the classification of its financial instruments at initial recognition. Classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the purpose for which they were acquired and their characteristics. Depending on classification, the financial instruments are recognised at fair value or at amortised cost.

Fair value measurement is performed in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) 13 Fair Value Measurement.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction in the principal (or most advantageous) market at the measurement date under current market conditions (i.e. an exit price) regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique.

An entity shall measure the fair value of an asset or a liability using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest. If a quoted market price is not available, the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the insurer balance sheet is estimated on the basis of market prices for similar financial instruments or using various valuation techniques, including mathematical models. Inputs for such models are based on observable market data or judgement.

Page 18: Translation from the Russian original · Main actuarial assumptions used for measurement of liabilities under non-life insurance contracts The following methods and assumptions are

18

Judgement is based on the time value of money, credit risk level, volatility of the instrument, market risk level and other applicable factors. All assets and liabilities for which fair value is recognised or disclosed in financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

- Level 1 — quoted (unadjusted) market prices in an active market for identical assets or liabilities;

- Level 2 — valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable;

- Level 3 — valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.

For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy. The amortised cost of a financial asset or financial liability is the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition minus principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortisation using the effective interest method of any difference between that initial amount and the maturity amount, and minus any reduction (directly or through the use of an allowance account) for impairment or uncollectibility. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset or a financial liability (or group of financial assets or financial liabilities) and of allocating the interest income or interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument or, when appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. When calculating the effective interest rate, the Company shall estimate cash flows considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment, call and similar options) but shall not consider future credit losses. The calculation includes all fees and points paid or received between parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs, and all other premiums or discounts. There is a presumption that the cash flows and the expected life of similar financial instruments can be estimated reliably. However, in those rare cases when it is not possible to estimate reliably the cash flows or the expected life of a financial instrument (or group of financial instruments), the Company shall use the contractual cash flows over the full contractual term of the financial instrument (or group of financial instruments). Revaluation of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies The financial statements are presented in Russian roubles, which are the Company's functional and presentation currency. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the CBR exchange rate ruling at the end of the reporting period. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currency and carried at cost are restated at the CBR exchange rate in effect at the transaction date. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currency and carried at fair value are restated at the CBR official exchange rate in effect at the date the fair value is determined. Gains and losses on purchase and sale of foreign currency are determined as the difference between the selling price and the carrying amount at the date of the transaction.

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency at the CBR exchange rate in effect at the transaction date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from revaluation of transactions in foreign currency and precious metals are recorded in the insurer statement of financial results within foreign exchange translation gains less losses. Going concern The Company's management prepared these financial statements on a going concern basis. In making this judgment management considered the Company’s financial position, current intentions, profitability of operations and access to financial resources, as well as analysed the impact of the recent financial crisis on the Company's future operations. The future economic direction of the Russian Federation is largely dependent upon the effectiveness of economic, financial and monetary measures undertaken by the Government of the Russian Federation, together with tax, legal, regulatory and political developments. The Company’s management cannot predict the influence that these factors may have on the Company’s financial position in future. The accompanying financial statements do not include the adjustments associated with this risk. Changes in Accounting Policies The accounting policies adopted are generally consistent with those of the previous financial year. Listed below are those amended standards and interpretations which became effective and which are or in the future could be relevant to the Company’s operations: a) New standards, interpretations and amendments effective from 1 January 2019 A number of amendments to IFRSs are effective for the first time for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The nature and effect of each amendment adopted by the Company is detailed below. IFRS 16 Leases (Mandatorily effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

IFRS 16 was issued in January 2016. It contains a single lessee accounting model, which eliminates the distinction between operating and finance leases from the perspective of the lessee. All contracts that meet the definition of a lease, other than short term leases and leases of low value items for which a lessee has the option not to apply the measurement and presentation requirements of IFRS 16, will be recorded in the statement of financial position with a “right of use” asset and a corresponding liability. The asset is subsequently accounted for as property, plant and equipment or investment property and the liability is unwound using the interest rate inherent in the lease. The accounting requirements from the perspective of the lessor remain largely in line with previous IAS 17 requirements. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments (Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019).

IAS 12 specifies how to account for current and deferred taxes, but not how to reflect the effects of uncertainty. The interpretation clarifies how to apply the recognition and measurement requirements in IAS 12 when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments. An entity should determine whether to consider each uncertain tax treatment separately or together with one or more other uncertain tax treatments based on which approach better predicts the resolution of the uncertainty. An entity should assume that a taxation authority will examine amounts it has a right to examine and have full knowledge of all related information when making those examinations. If an entity concludes it is not probable that the taxation authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment, the effect of uncertainty will be reflected in determining the related taxable profit or loss, tax bases, unused tax

20

losses or tax rates, by using either the most likely amount or the expected value, depending on which method the entity expects to better predict the resolution of the uncertainty. An entity will reflect the effect of a change in facts and circumstances or of new information that affects the judgments or estimates required by the interpretation as a change in accounting estimate. Examples of changes in facts and circumstances or new information that can result in the reassessment of a judgment or estimate include, but are not limited to, examinations or actions by a taxation authority, changes in rules established by a taxation authority or the expiry of a taxation authority's right to examine or re-examine a tax treatment. The absence of agreement or disagreement by a taxation authority with a tax treatment, in isolation, is unlikely to constitute a change in facts and circumstances or new information that affects the judgments and estimates required by the Interpretation. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Annual improvements to IFRSs 2015-2018 Cycle (Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

Paragraphs of the following standards are added or clarified: 1) IFRS 3 Business Combinations (when an entity obtains control

of a business that is a joint operation, it remeasures previously held interests in that business),

2) IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements (when an entity obtains joint control of a business that is a joint operation, the entity does not remeasure previously held interests in that business),

3) IAS 12 Income Taxes (an entity should recognise the income tax consequences of dividends when a liability to pay the dividend is recognised),

4) IAS 23 Borrowing Costs (if any specific borrowing remains outstanding after the related asset is ready for its intended use or sale, that borrowing becomes part of the funds that an entity borrows to acquire that asset).

The Company does not expect the adoption of these amendments to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Amendment to IFRS 9 Financial Instruments

Prepayment features with negative compensation and modifications of financial liabilities; The Company used an optional temporary exemption from applying IFRS 9 until 2021 in accordance with paragraph 46 of IFRS 4 Insurance Contracts

Amendment to IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures

Long-term interests in an associate or joint venture. The adoption of this standard had no impact on the Company's financial statements.

Amendments to IAS 19 Employee Benefits

Plan amendment, curtailment or settlement. The adoption of this standard had no impact on the Company's financial statements.

21

b) New standards, interpretations and amendments issued, but not yet effective The standards, interpretations and amendments set out below that have not yet become effective and have not been early adopted in these financial statements will or may have an impact on the Company's subsequent financial statements: IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts (Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2021).

IFRS 17 replaces IFRS 4 that allowed companies to continue to account for insurance contracts using the existing practices. As a result, it has become difficult for investors to compare and distinguish between financial results of otherwise similar insurance companies. IFRS 17 is a single principles-based standard of accounting for all types of insurance contracts, including reinsurance contracts owned by insurer. This standard requires recognition and measurement of a group of insurance contracts at: 1) a risk-adjusted present value of the future cash flows (the fulfilment cash flows) that incorporates all of the available information about the fulfilment cash flows in a way that is consistent with observable market information; plus (if this value is a liability) or minus (if this value is an asset); 2) an amount representing the unearned profit in the group of contracts (the contractual service margin). Insurers will be recognising profit from a group of insurance contracts over the period they provide insurance coverage, and as they are released from risk. If a group of contracts is or becomes loss-making, an entity will be recognising the loss immediately. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the new standard on its financial statements.

Annual improvements to IFRSs 2016-2018 Cycle (Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020)

1) IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements and IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors (amendment – Definition of material);

2) Amendment to IFRS 3 Business Combinations (amendment – definition of a business);

3) Revised Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting; The Company believes that the adoption of these amendments will not have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements

Recognition of financial instruments The note discloses information about significant accounting policies applied in preparation of these financial statements. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents are assets, which can be converted into cash within a day and consist of cash on hand and balances on settlement, current and special accounts of banks. Amounts, which relate to funds that are of restricted nature, are excluded from cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at amortised cost and are tested for impairment. Deposits with banks Bank deposits are funds provided by the Company to credit institutions on the basis of deposit agreements concluded for a period of more than one banking day. After initial recognition, deposits are measured at amortized cost and are accounted for until their maturity.

Page 22: Translation from the Russian original · Main actuarial assumptions used for measurement of liabilities under non-life insurance contracts The following methods and assumptions are

22

The amortised cost is determined using the nominal interest rate under the contract if the term of funds placed does not exceed 366 days, or if this rate does not differ from the market rate. The Company amortises interest income over the expected term of a bank deposit agreement. On the last day of the month and on the interest payment dates specified by the bank deposit agreement, the Company shall reflect in its accounting records all interest income accrued for the past month or for the period from the date of initial placement of funds under the bank deposit agreement. Other receivables Other accounts receivable include settlements with buyers and lessees and are carried at amortised cost. Other assets Other assets include prepayments and inventory. Prepayments are recognized in the amount of funds actually transferred. After initial recognition, prepayments are carried at cost less any provision for impairment. Prepayments to service providers are charged to expenses when the services are rendered. Inventory is initially recognized as the actual cost incurred in purchase and bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. After initial recognition, inventories are measured at the lower of cost or net realisable value, and the net realisable value is estimated at the end of each reporting year. Other financial liabilities Other liabilities include settlements with service providers, personnel and tax authorities and are carried at amortised cost. Short-term accounts payable are recorded at the nominal amount to be paid. Long- term accounts payable are carried at amortised cost using a discount rate equal to the market interest rate on loans used for financing purposes. Offsetting of financial assets and financial liabilities

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the insurer balance sheet only when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts, and there is an intention to either settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Accounting for assets and liabilities, income and expenses related to insurance activities Classification of insurance contracts By type of contract: The Company recognises an insurance contract when and only when the contract transfers a significant insurance risk. The Company recognises the insurance risk as significant only if, as a result of an insured event or the occurrence of another event provided for in the reinsurance contract, the Company incurs a significant loss. The Company evaluates the significance of the insurance risk under contracts on an individual basis, separately for each contract or for similar groups of reinsurance contracts which contain the same set of insurance risks under the same types of insurance (business lines). All contracts signed by the Company in the reporting period are classified as insurance contracts. By effective period: The Company classifies contracts into short-term and long-term contracts. Short-term reinsurance contracts include contracts whose term is less than 18 months or which contain only the minimum effective periods of liability for risk assumed, and further separation of additional effective periods of liability in these contracts for the purposes of recognising them as long-term contracts is impossible. If the term (period) of reinsurance under the contract is more than 18 months and it is possible to separate the effective period of liability, the Company classifies this contract as a long-term contract.

By line of business: Accidents and health insurance Motor TPL insurance (MTPL) Land transport insurance Air and water transport insurance, including TPL insurance for their owners, and cargo insurance Property insurance Liability insurance Insurance of persons leaving their permanent place of residence Non- proportional reinsurance contracts Deferred acquisition costs and deferred acquisition income The capitalised portion of acquisition costs incurred by the Company in concluding or renewing inward reinsurance contracts is recognised as deferred acquisition costs under inward reinsurance contracts. The method of estimating the amount of deferred acquisition costs provides equivalent accounting for income and expenses recognised in the Company's accounting records under reinsurance contracts. Equivalent accounting implies the release of the insurance liability (reserves) as income, which must be accompanied by a proportional recognition of income-related expenses. Recognition of deferred acquisition costs under inward reinsurance contracts is terminated when the respective reinsurance contract has been terminated or executed. If the terms of contracts under which the acquisition costs were previously capitalised are changed, the said deferred acquisition costs are restated. All other acquisition costs are recognized as expenses in the period of their occurrence. Deferred income in the form of reinsurance commissions stipulated by outward reinsurance contracts and accounted for by the Company as income during the contract effective term is recognised as deferred acquisition income under outward reinsurance contracts. The procedure for calculating the deferred acquisition income is similar to that for the deferred acquisition costs described above. Deferred acquisition income is written off to the Company's income during the effective term of the reinsurance contract. The procedure for considering deferred acquisition costs in conducting LAT is as follows. When testing the adequacy of its liabilities, the Company uses current estimates of the present value of all future cash flows associated with the concluded reinsurance contracts. If such an assessment shows that the carrying amount of the liabilities (net of associated deferred acquisition costs) is insufficient to cover future payments and expenses under the reinsurance contracts concluded, the deferred acquisition costs are written off in the amount of the deficit, and the unexpired risk provision (URP) is created for the remaining amount of the deficit. Reinsurance receivables and payables Reinsurance receivables and payables include settlements with reinsurers, the reinsureds and insurance brokers under inward and outward reinsurance contracts. Reinsurance receivables and payables are determined on the basis of the concluded contract. After initial recognition, the Company measures reinsurance receivables and payables at amortised cost.

At the end of each reporting period, the Company assesses whether there is objective evidence of impairment of receivables. The main criteria used to determine whether there is objective evidence of an impairment loss are as follows:

- delay in any payment due;

- the counterparty is experiencing significant financial difficulties, as evidenced by the financial information available to the Company;

- there is an adverse change in the payment status of the counterparty as a result of changes in national or local economic conditions.

If such evidence exists, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account for impairment, and the amount of the loss is recognized in the insurer statement of financial results. The amount of the loss is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of expected future cash flows. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be objectively attributed to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, such as an increase in the debtor's credit rating, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed in the insurer statement of financial results through provision adjustment. Debt under reinsurance contracts for which all necessary indemnity procedures have been completed and the final amount of the loss has been determined are written off against the accumulated allowance for impairment. Subsequent recovery of amounts previously written off is recorded as other insurance income. Accounts receivable and payable under reinsurance operations are offset under the same reinsurance contract or when there is a legally enforceable right to offset them. Insurance provisions To ensure the performance of obligations under concluded reinsurance contracts, the Company determines the amount of insurance reserves (creates insurance reserves) expressed in monetary form on the basis of actuarial calculations. Insurance provisions, as well as the reinsurers’ share of insurance provisions, are assessed by the Company's actuary in accordance with the current Federal actuarial standards "General requirements for actuarial activities" and "Actuarial valuation of the insurer's activities". The Company forms the following types of insurance provisions:

Provision for unearned premiums;

Provisions for claims incurred:

- Provision for claims reported but not paid or outstanding claims provision (OCP);

- Provision for claims incurred but not reported (IBNR);

- Provision for claims handling expenses;

Estimate of future proceeds from subrogation and recourses, receipts of property and (or) salvage materials;

Unexpired risk provision (URP). Liability adequacy test

Insurance provisions must be sufficient to meet the Company's liabilities to make future insurance payments under reinsurance contracts and perform other actions to service these obligations. Insurance provisions covering insured events that occurred before the reporting date are formed in accordance with the best estimate principles. The best estimate of insurance provisions is the weighted average future expenses incurred by the Company less the weighted average future income generated by concluded reinsurance contracts, adjusted for probability of their occurrence.

JSC”Russian Re” Notes to the Insurer Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2019 (in thousands of Russian Rubles) Translation from the Russian original

25

When testing the adequacy of insurance provisions, the following calculations are made and the following assumptions are used:

- insurance liabilities for the unearned premium reserve are calculated net of deferred acquisition costs;

- the loss rate in respect of future losses under already concluded contracts will be the same as for the portfolio of contracts originated in previous years;

- the level of proceeds from recourses that is used in determining the respective asset as at the reporting date can be applied to forecasting future income on recourses from future estimated losses under contracts already concluded at the reporting date;

- the level of claims handling expenses used in determining the liabilities as at the reporting date can be applied to forecasting future claims handling expenses from the expected future losses under contracts already concluded at the reporting date;

- the level of other administrative expenses under concluded contracts other than acquisition costs will be similar to the level of the previous period;

- inflation or deflation of losses associated with changes in the exchange rate of the rouble against other currencies is not taken into account when determining the loss rate.

At each reporting date the Company tests the adequacy of its provisions. Reinsurers’ share of insurance provisions Reinsurers' share of insurance provisions is formed in accordance with the principles and methods used for determining insurance provisions. The Company estimates reinsurers’ share of the following types of insurance provisions other than life insurance:

Share of provision for unearned premiums or unearned premium reserve (UPR share);

Share of loss provisions:

- Share of provision for claims reported but not paid or outstanding claims provision (OCP share);

- Share of provision for claims incurred but not reported (IBNR share);

- Share of provision for claims handling expenses.

Share of estimate of the future proceeds from subrogation and recourses, receipts of property and (or) salvage material.

Impairment of reinsurance assets in the form of reinsurer's share in insurance provisions is recognised directly in calculating the reinsurer's share in insurance reserves. At the same time, credit risks (risks associated with non-performance of the reinsurer's obligations and default on payments) are taken into account and issues related to the change of the respective obligation (respective insurance provisions) under the inward reinsurance contract are not considered. Income and expenses on reinsurance transactions Premiums A reinsurance premium, including the minimum and deposit premium under non-proportional treaty contracts, due under the terms of the reinsurance contract, is recognized as income on the date of acceptance of the reinsurer's (or insurance broker's) offer, but not earlier than the date when the Company's liability begins. An increase in the amount of the reinsurance premium receivable, in case the contractual terms are changed, is recognized as income on the date of acceptance of a supplementary agreement by the Company.

JSC”Russian Re” Notes to the Insurer Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2019 (in thousands of Russian Rubles) Translation from the Russian original

26

An additional reinsurance premium for restoration of liability in accordance with provisions of non-proportional treaty contracts shall be recognised as income at the date of recognition in the Company’s accounting records of the insurance indemnity payment for the insured event whose occurrence entailed the need to restore the volume of liability and pay additional premium. An additional reinsurance premium to be additionally paid by the reinsured in connection with the adjustment of the final amount of the reinsurance premium based on the results of non-proportional treaty reinsurance contracts shall be recognised as income at the date the Company accepts recalculation of the premium. A reinsurance premium under a proportional treaty reinsurance contract due in the reporting period is recognized as income on the date of acceptance by the Company of the documents serving as the basis for settlements (premium and loss accounts, premium and loss bordereau, etc.), regardless of the date of the liability commencement and the moment when the invoice is paid. If the documents serving as the basis for calculations reflect only the balance to be transferred, the amount of the reinsurance premium is determined by calculation in accordance with the contractual terms. A premium, including the minimum and deposit premium under non-proportional treaty contracts, due to the reinsurer under the terms of the outward reinsurance contract, is recognized as an expense on the date of acceptance of the offer by the reinsurer, but not earlier than the date of commencement of the reinsurer's liability, regardless of actual payment. An increase in the amount of the premium due to the reinsurer in case of changes in contractual terms is recognized as an expense on the date of signing the relevant agreement between the parties. An additional premium for restoration of reinsurer's liability in accordance with provisions of the outward non-proportional treaty contracts shall be deemed to be an expense as at the date of recognition in the Company’s accounting records of the insurance indemnity payment for the insured event, whose occurrence entailed the need to restore the volume of liability and pay additional premium. An additional premium to be additionally paid to the reinsurer in connection with the adjustment of the final amount of premium on the results of execution of the non-proportional treaty contract is recognised as an expense on the date of expiration of the reinsurance contract or of the period during which the premium is recalculated.

A premium related to reinsurer's share under a proportional treaty reinsurance contract is recognised as an expense simultaneously with recognition of income under the respective inward reinsurance contracts. Payments Amounts to be compensated to the reinsured in the share attributable to the Company in accordance with provisions of the reinsurance contract are recognised as expenses at the date of approval by the Company of the insurance payment or at the date of acceptance of documents serving as the basis for settlements (for proportional treaty reinsurance contracts). Amounts to be compensated by the reinsurer in accordance with the outward reinsurance contract are recognised as income at the date of approval by the entity of the insurance payment under the inward reinsurance contract falling within the scope of the said outward contract. Acquisition costs The Company includes expenses related to signing or renewal of reinsurance contracts in the acquisition costs. The acquisition costs under reinsurance contracts are divided into direct and indirect costs. The Company’s direct costs include those variable costs that the Company incurs when signing or renegotiating specific contracts, namely, commissions to reinsureds under inward reinsurance contracts and remuneration to insurance brokers, other intermediaries for the conclusion of reinsurance contracts and pre-insurance risk assessment.

Page 27: Translation from the Russian original · Main actuarial assumptions used for measurement of liabilities under non-life insurance contracts The following methods and assumptions are

JSC”Russian Re” Notes to the Insurer Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2019 (in thousands of Russian Rubles) Translation from the Russian original

27

The Company’s indirect costs include variable costs aimed to sign reinsurance contracts, while it is difficult to refer them to specific contracts. Indirect acquisition costs include remuneration of the Underwriting Department staff. Direct acquisition costs under reinsurance contracts are recognised by the Company if there are contractual relations with intermediaries or other circumstances giving rise to obligations for payment of remuneration, as well as if the amount of remuneration can be reliably measured. The moment of recognition of direct acquisition costs under the contracts corresponds to the moment of recognition of the premium under the respective reinsurance contracts. Indirect acquisition costs under reinsurance contracts are recognized as the respective expenses are incurred. Indirect acquisition expenses are distributed by the Company in proportion to the accrued premium. Expenses are recognized by the Company in the full amount, while under long-term reinsurance contracts direct expenses in the form of remuneration to reinsurers and insurance brokers are recognized in proportion to the premium recognized in accounting records under the respective long-term reinsurance contract for the respective period; other direct acquisition costs under reinsurance contracts may be recognized immediately in the full amount. Recourses The subrogation and recourse income is the amount of compensation to be received by the Company from the reinsured commensurate with the share of participation in the insurance payment under which the reinsured has received a compensation from persons that caused the occurrence of insured events. The date of recognition of income on subrogation and recourse claims is the date of acceptance of the Reinsured's invoice. Accounting for investment property The initial cost of investment property purchased for a fee is the amount of the Company's actual expenses for construction, manufacturing and acquisition of an investment property item, including value-added tax and other non-reimbursable taxes. After initial recognition of investment property, the Company accounts for investment property at fair value. Investment property is property (part of property)(land or a building—or part of a building—or both) held by the Company to earn rentals (other than under a finance lease) or for capital appreciation or both, rather than for use as a tool in the provision of services, for administrative or managerial purposes, in order to ensure safety, environmental protection, as well as in cases provided for sanitary and hygienic purposes, technical, operational and other special technical regulations and requirements, the sale of which within 12 months from the date of classification as investment property is not planned by the Company. The fair value of investment property is determined as a result of annual valuation performed by independent valuers, who hold a recognised and relevant professional qualification and who have professional experience in valuation of property of a similar location and category. Changes in the fair value of investment property are recognised through profit or loss. Accounting for premises and equipment Premises and equipment of the “Buildings and structures” group are carried at the revalued amount, while the other groups are accounted for using the historical cost model, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. At the end of the reporting period, the Company determines whether there is any indication of impairment of premises and equipment. If any such indications exist, the Company estimates the recoverable amount, which is determined as the higher of the fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. If the carrying amount of premises and equipment exceeds their estimated recoverable amount, their value is reduced to the recoverable amount and the difference is recognised in the insurer statement of financial results as an impairment loss of premises and equipment.

28

Revaluation surplus is recorded within other comprehensive income, unless it represents the reversal of a revaluation decrease of the same asset previously recognised through profit or loss. A decrease arising as a result of a revaluation is recognised as profit or loss in the insurer statement of financial results, except that revaluation deficit is directly offset against the surplus from revaluation of the asset recorded within other comprehensive income as effect of revaluation of premises and equipment. The revaluation reserve for premises and equipment is transferred directly to retained earnings when the surplus is realised, i.e. either on the retirement or disposal of the asset.

Gains and losses on disposal of premises and equipment are determined by reference to their carrying amount. Repairs and maintenance are charged to the insurer statement of financial results when the expense is incurred. Construction in progress is carried at cost less impairment provision. As soon as construction is completed, assets are reclassified as premises and equipment at their carrying value at the date of reclassification. Construction in progress is not depreciated until the asset is available for use. Depreciation of premises and equipment commences from the date the assets are ready for use. For all groups of premises and equipment, depreciation is accrued on a straight-line basis over the useful life of an item of premises and equipment. Depreciation does not cease when the asset becomes idle or is retired from active use unless the asset is fully depreciated. The Company determines the useful life of premises and equipment upon their recognition based on: - expected life of this item in accordance with the expected output or capacity; - expected physical wear and tear of this item, depending on the operational factors, natural conditions and exposure to the aggressive environment, the repair and maintenance program; - legal and other restrictions on the use of this item; - obsolescence of this item resulting from changes or improvements in the production process or from changes in market demand for services provided through operation of the item of premises and equipment. Accounting for intangible assets An intangible asset is an item that simultaneously meets the following conditions: it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the entity, in particular, the item is intended for use in performing works, providing services, for administrative purposes or for managerial needs, the Company is entitled to economic benefits from the use of the item in the future, there are restrictions to access of others to the economic benefits from the use of the item; the item can be identified (capable of being separated or divided from other assets); the item is intended for use for more than 12 months; the item has no physical substance; the initial cost of the item can be reliably estimated. The Company’s intangible assets primarily include computer software, licenses, copyrights, etc. An intangible asset is accounted for at its original cost as at the date of recognition. Subsequently, intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses (cost model accounting). All of the Company's intangible assets have a determinable useful life, and their value is written off through amortisation over their useful life. The useful life of intangible assets is determined by the Company on the date of recognition of an intangible asset (transfer of the intangible asset into operation intended by the Company's management) based on: the term of the Company's rights to the result of intellectual activity or means of individualization and the period of control over the intangible asset; the expected useful life of an intangible asset, during which the Company expects to receive economic benefits; for such intangible assets, as perpetual licenses for computer software, the useful life is 5 years. Amortisation of intangible assets is charged on a straight-line basis.

Accounting for employee benefits and related charges Wages, salaries, contributions to the Russian Federation state pension and mandatory medical and social insurance funds, paid annual leaves and paid sick leaves, bonuses and non-monetary benefits are accrued as the Company’s employees render the related service. The Company does not have pension arrangements separate from the state pension system of the Russian Federation. Accounting for provisions - estimated liabilities A provision is a liability of uncertain timing or amount. The main factors for making a provision are as follows:

- an entity has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event (or several events)

- it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation.

- a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

The amount recognised as a provision shall be the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation. Provisions (estimated liabilities) shall be reviewed at least quarterly at the end of each quarter and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. Share capital and reserve fund The registered, issued and fully paid-up share capital of the Company includes 600,000 ordinary shares. Share capital contributed after the 1 January 2003 is recorded at cost. Contributions to the share capital made before that date are recognized at their cost restated for the effects of inflation. A reserve fund is formed in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation and the Company's founding documents and represents funds reserved to cover the Company's general risks, including future losses and other unforeseen risks or potential liabilities. Annual contributions to the Company's reserve fund represent at least 5 percent of net profit until the reserve fund reaches 15 percent of the share capital. Accounting for deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities Deferred tax assets and liabilities include amounts that may have an impact on reduction (increase) of income tax payable to the tax authorities in future reporting periods. The amount of a deferred tax liability is determined by multiplying taxable temporary differences by the income tax rate established by the tax legislation of the Russian Federation and effective at the end of the reporting period. The amount of a deferred tax asset is determined by multiplying deductible temporary differences or tax loss carryforwards not used to reduce income tax by the income tax rate established by the tax legislation of the Russian Federation and effective at the end of the reporting period. When preparing the Company's financial statements, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset (presented on a net basis).

The following methods and assumptions are used to calculate the provision for unearned premiums: The “1/8th” method. It is assumed that all risks accepted during one quarter are assumed in the middle of this quarter, have a duration equal to a positive integer number of quarters, the risk is distributed evenly throughout the entire term of the contract, and the effective term is determined based on the period of the insurer’s liability under insurance contracts. The ultimate liability is calculated as the amount of the liability calculation base multiplied by the ratio of the number of unexpired semi-quarters of the effective period to the number of quarters of the effective period multiplied by 2. The "pro rata temporis" method applied to the liability calculation base assumes an even distribution of risk over the term of the contract. If a reinsurance contract became effective before the reporting date and was not terminated as at the reporting date, the amount of the liability is calculated as the amount of the liability calculation base multiplied by the ratio of the number of unexpired effective days of the contract to the effective term of the contract. The 1/8th method was used for proportional and part of non - proportional treaty contracts under which premiums are calculated on the basis of quarterly invoices, and the "pro rata temporis" method was used for all other contracts. For the purposes of this assessment, the accrued premium under reinsurance contracts (the base for calculating UPR) was used as the basis for UPR calculation.

The Company’s land, buildings and structures are recognised at revalued amounts, and other assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. At the end of the reporting period the Company assesses whether there is any indication of impairment of premises and equipment. Land, buildings and structures are revalued at the end of the reporting period; these assets are not tested for impairment. In determining the revalued amounts of premises and equipment, expert opinions on the fair value of these assets were used. The valuation was performed by an independent firm of professional appraisers LLC Prof-Expert. The fair value of the buildings was calculated as at 31 December 2019 and 31 December 2018 using the appropriate valuation methods which are disclosed in Note 31. The results of the revaluation of premises and equipment are reflected by reducing the initial cost of the revalued item by the amount of accumulated depreciation and its subsequent recalculation to fair value.

The cost of the revalued item, reflected in the premises and equipment account after the revaluation, is equal to its fair value while the accumulated depreciation is zero. The net book value of buildings as at 31 December 2019 includes the amount of RUB 55 441 thousand, which represents positive revaluation of buildings (as at 31 December 2018: RUB 54 754 thousand representing positive revaluation of buildings). At the end of the reporting period, the total deferred tax liability of RUB 14 437 thousand was computed in respect of this fair value remeasurement of the buildings and recorded within other comprehensive income of the insurer statement of financial results (2018: RUB 14 062 thousand). If the buildings were measured at cost less depreciation, the carrying amount of buildings at 31 December 2019 would be RUB 31 959 thousand (as at 31 December 2018: RUB 32 342 thousand). Items of premises and equipment were not provided to third parties as collateral for other borrowed funds.

The table below reconciles the carrying value of premises and equipment recognised at revalued amounts in the insurer balance sheet to the value of these assets had they been recognised at cost less accumulated depreciation:

As regards non-life insurance contracts, they are normally concluded for a period of 12 months. The most significant risks arising from reinsurance contracts within the Company's portfolio are caused by catastrophe risks of natural and manmade disasters. The usual practice for such events involves completion of settlement of claims within two to three years, which makes it possible to consider the risk of inflation on the assumed obligations as acceptable and insignificant. In all geographical regions where the Company reinsures risks, it has relative homogenous coverage of insurable risks by type and industry. The risks described above are reduced by applying adapted retentions for one risk and diversifying the portfolio of reinsurance contracts by geographic regions, industries, and types of objects. The Company's underwriting strategy provides for a thorough segment analysis of the types of risks, monitoring of the average payment for one event and the frequency of the claims payments to determine the optimal selection model and the balance of the risks within the entire portfolio of the Company. In addition, to reduce the portfolio exposure to adverse deviations from the forecast values, the Company applies a policy of thorough analysis of new cases and monitoring of the development of the current reported claims , and also maintains close interaction with the risk cedents to analyse the procedure for meeting legitimate original payment requirements and counteract possible fraudulent or unreasonable demands. The Company strictly adheres to the policy of active management and timely settlement of payments in order to mitigate the risk of unpredictable negative consequences in the future. Inflation risk under major claims is reduced by inflation adjustment when assessing obligations under reinsurance contracts. The Company monitors catastrophe risks on a regular basis in accordance with the Company's portfolio development dynamics. When accepting inward proportional reinsurance contracts in accordance with the adopted underwriting policy, a mandatory condition for participation in risks in areas prone to natural disasters is the existence of per one event limit in the inwards contract. The size of the Company's participation in such contracts shall be determined with consideration of this limit. To assess the portfolio's exposure to catastrophe risks and calculate the maximum possible loss from catastrophic events, the Company cooperates on an annual basis with AON Central and Eastern Europe a.s., a major international reinsurance broker. In case of excess of the risk levels accepted for net retention, the Company enters into a retrocessionary catastrophe excess of loss reinsurance agreement. The parameters of catastrophe protection are

The main assumption used in assessing liabilities is that the development of the insurer's losses in the future will be similar to the prior loss development pattern. Sensitivity analysis The tables below show the results of analysing the sensitivity to the methods applied, assumptions and estimates of changes in the main actuarial assumptions used to calculate the best estimate of the claims provisions, taking into account the provision for claims handling expenses minus the recourse asset. A distinction is shown between the best estimate and the estimates made as part of the change in the respective assumptions. Increasing and decreasing values is meant to be multiplicative, that is, a 10% increase is a multiplication of the parameter value by 1.1; a 10% reduction is a multiplication of the parameter value by 0.9.

The Company's management considers risk management and control as an important aspect of the management process and operations, constantly integrating these functions into the corporate structure. The main task of risk management is to establish risk limits and then ensure compliance with the established limits and other internal control measures. Risk management should provide for proper compliance with internal regulations and procedures in order to minimise them. Risk management is carried out by the Company in relation to financial, insurance and legal risks. The activities of an insurance organisation are exposed to the risk of losses arising from inconsistency between the nature and scope of the insurer’s activities and (or) requirements of the applicable Russian legislation and the Company’s internal rules and procedures for commercial operations and other transactions, their violation by insurer’s employees and (or) other persons (due to incompetence, unintentional or wilful acts or inaction), inadequacy (insufficiency) of functional capabilities (characteristics) of the information, technological and other systems applied by the insurer and(or) their malfunction (functional failure), and as a result of impact of external events (hereinafter - the operational risk). When the internal control system ceases to function, operational risk can damage reputation, have legal consequences, or lead to financial losses. The insurer cannot assume that operational risk has been eliminated, but with the help of a control system and by tracking and appropriately responding to potential risks, the insurer can manage operational risk. The control system provides for effective segregation of duties, access rights, approval and reconciliation procedures, staff training, and assessment procedures, including internal audit. Risks associated with carrying out of activities - environmental and technological changes and changes in the industry - are controlled by the Company as part of the strategic planning process. The activities of an insurance organisation are subject to the risk of incurring losses due to non-compliance with the requirements of legal acts and concluded contracts, legal errors made in carrying out activities, and inadequacy of the legal system (inconsistencies in the legislation of the Russian Federation, absence of legal norms regulating issues arising in the course of the insurer's activities), violation by the counterparties of laws and regulations, as well as terms and provisions of the concluded contracts (hereinafter - the legal risk). Risk management procedures are regulated by internal documents as well as regulatory acts of the Bank of Russia, and are controlled by various management bodies of the Company. Risks are monitored by the Company's Risk Committee. The management approves both the general risk management policy of the Company and the policy for managing each of the significant types of risk. The Company sets limits on operations exposed to risk in accordance with the principles defined by the risk management policies and the investment policy of the Company. Stress testing associated with all significant types of risks is performed by the Company at least once a year. The results of stress testing are reviewed and discussed by the Company's management.

The Company accepts insurance risk in the course of its ordinary activities. The main risk of the Company is the underwriting risk, that is, the risk that the amount of payments under reinsurance contracts will exceed the expectations. The specialised SAP Business Objects multi-factor data analysis system and the document management and workflow system on the Lotus Notes platform allow real-time monitoring of the risk portfolio structure, determining acceptable risk parameters and monitoring loss development. The Company manages insurance risk with the help of targeted actions aimed at limiting and minimising the insurance risk when entering into reinsurance contracts: by tracking rates on the reinsurance portfolio corresponding to the current level of risks; analysing reinsurance payments to identify hidden patterns that may affect the frequency of insurance claims and the amount of possible losses; predicting the amount of payments depending on the type of risks, counterparties, objects reinsured and other parameters; using the transfer of risk to reinsurance in order to reduce the liquidity risk in case of major losses; diversifying accepted risks; implementing comprehensive actuarial support for underwriting. The Company also classifies the risks of catastrophic losses and under-provision as potentially dangerous, which can have a significant impact on solvency. The Company manages the risk of catastrophic losses by imposing restrictions on the parameters of acceptable risks. To eliminate the risk of under-provision, a balanced provisioning policy is used, which takes into account actuarial methods for assessing assumed insurance liabilities (insurance provisions). Scenario analysis or modelling is used in predicting possible ways of current situation development. In the process of scenario analysis, the ways of the Company's response to changes in external conditions are developed. The responsibility for the scenario analysis and selection of the optimal scenario rests with the Company's Risk Committee. The Company's financial risk management strategy is based on compliance with the principles of safety, profitability, diversification and liquidity of invested funds. Financial risks include market risk (consisting of currency risk, interest rate risk, and other price risks), credit risk, and liquidity risk. To manage and mitigate various types of financial risks, the Company uses the following procedures and tools. The Company uses the liquidity risk policy to reduce its exposure to the risk of difficulties in paying off its insurance obligations (hereinafter - liquidity risk). For prompt management of liquidity risk the Company regularly monitors external factors, which could influence the Company’s liquidity level, and forecasts cash flows. For the medium- and long-term liquidity risk management the Company analyses maturity mismatches of assets and liabilities. To manage its liquidity, the Company is required to analyse the level of liquid assets needed to settle the liabilities on their maturity, provide access to various sources of financing, provide plans to solve the problems with financing. The Company regularly monitors its liquidity position by monitoring the expected maturities and conducts liquidity testing under various scenarios that cover standard and more severe market conditions. The Company follows a conservative investment strategy. The main investments are real estate and deposits with Russian banks. To provide for additional liquidity cushion, a significant portion of cash is placed on current accounts. Compliance with the liquidity risk policy is monitored and violations are reported to the Risk Committee. The policy is regularly reviewed for adequacy and relevance. The probability of losses due to negative changes in the financial condition of counterparties and other debtors constitutes the Company's credit risk. To reduce its credit risk the Company uses the credit risk policy according to which the Company’s credit risks are assessed and determined. Compliance with the policy is monitored, and information about all risks and violations is reported to the Company's Risk Committee. The policy is regularly reviewed for relevance, as well as for changes in risk. The Company establishes marginal values of net risk exposure for each counterparty or group of counterparties, geographical and industry segments (that is, maximum values are set for investments and cash deposits, while also determining the minimum credit rating for investments that the Company may have). Reinsurance contracts are concluded with counterparties with a good credit rating, and in order to avoid risk concentrations, guidelines are used for counterparties regarding maximum amounts, which are annually set by the Company's management and regularly reviewed. At each reporting date, management examines

the solvency of reinsurers and amends the strategy for entering into reinsurance contracts, determining the amount of impairment provisions. Outward portfolio protection is formed with the participation of only leading international companies with high ratings, with which the Company has been cooperating for more than 20 years. For the entire time of the Company's operation, there were no instances of the realisation of credit risk for payment of losses by retrocessionaires. The Company sets maximum amounts and limits for counterparties based on their long-term credit ratings. In order to classify financial assets by credit quality categories, the Company uses credit ratings of leading Russian and International rating agencies: ACRA, Expert RA, S & P Global Ratings, Moody`s, A.M. Best. The Company refers counterparties with credit ratings from AAA to A- to Category A and from BBB to B- to Category B. The credit risk in respect of receivables due to non-payment of the reinsurance premium will remain during the payment delay period specified in the reinsurance contract until payments are made under the reinsurance contract or the contract is terminated. The Company takes on exposure to credit risk which is the risk of non-performance, untimely or incomplete performance by the counterparty of its financial liabilities under the contract. The main sources of credit risk are: payment of premiums by the cedents and payment of losses by retrocessionaires. Credit risks are monitored by the Company on a regular basis. The Company controls the credit risk it undertakes by regular analysis of the ability of the existing counterparties to repay the amounts due under reinsurance contracts. In forming its reinsurance portfolio, the Company adheres to a certain level of concentration of its transactions as it operates in the specific segment and specialises in provision of services to specific clients represented by major Russian insurance companies with extensive market experience. The Company avoids concentration in insufficiently explored, new or non-traditional sectors (marine and aviation reinsurance, etc.). The maturity of reinsurance receivables is continually analysed. The collection of premiums in terms of counterparties, territories and types of business is analysed on a weekly basis aiming to maintain sufficient diversification. The Company's customers are insurance companies. In the overwhelming majority of cases, insurance contracts are terminated on the initiative of the primary insured (insurance company client), with whom the Company has no direct relationship and is unable to evaluate or influence this decision. At the same time, in relation to major long-term risks offered for reinsurance, the Company pursues a policy of primary assessment of the insured's financial condition on the basis of published financial statements and indirect sources of information. Commissions paid to intermediaries are offset against their receivables in order to reduce the risk of doubtful debts. The maximum amount of the Company's credit risk by the insurer balance sheet component represents the carrying amount of the respective assets. The Company is exposed to market risk, which is the risk of financial losses or decline in the value of assets due to adverse changes in market prices (foreign exchange rates and interest rates). The Company sets limits on the level of accepted risk and monitors their compliance. The use of this approach does not prevent losses beyond these limits in the event of more significant market movements. For each type of market risk to which the Company is exposed at the end of the reporting period a sensitivity analysis is carried out, reflecting information on how the likely changes in the corresponding risk variable that could have occurred at the end of the reporting period, would affect the profit or loss. The Company manages market risk in accordance with the market risk management policy. The main objectives of market risk management are: the optimisation of the risk-return ratio, minimisation of losses during the implementation of adverse events and reduction of the deviation of the actual financial result from the expected one. To manage the currency risk, the Company’s Risk Committee performs a regular analysis of the claimed losses, accounts receivable and payable categorised by major counterparty and currency. Cash is placed on deposits with banks so as to match cash flows in different currencies by expected maturity. The Company sets limits on the level of exposure by currency and in total, which are monitored weekly. The main operations of the Company are carried out in roubles. When conducting transactions in foreign currencies, the Company is exposed to the risk that the fair value of future cash flows on a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates (hereinafter – the currency risk).

The Company's financial assets are mainly denominated in the same currency as reinsurance liabilities. Thus, the main currency risk is attributed to recognised assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than currencies in which repayment of liabilities under reinsurance contracts is expected. For minimising currency risk relating to payment of losses under contracts ceded to reinsurers, conditions are stipulated under which losses under outward reinsurance contracts are stated in a currency similar to the currency of losses under inward reinsurance contracts. Settlements with reinsurers relating to payment of losses are made in foreign currency (Euros or US dollars) on the date of payment. After that Company converts the funds received into the currency of the assumed reinsurance contract and makes payment to the reinsured in the shortest possible period of time. Exchange differences arising from settlements with the reinsureds affect the Company's financial result. The geographical concentration of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities as at 31 December 2019 is set out below:

In the current period of the insurer's activity, the court authorities received claims against the insurer. Based on its own assessment, as well as recommendations of internal and external professional consultants, the insurer believes that the proceedings will not lead to significant losses for the insurer, and, accordingly, has not formed a litigation provision in the financial statements.
