  3. OVERVIEW

  4. Overview Collateral Replacement Program for State Regulated Self-Insurers… • replaces traditional collateral - typically surety, Letter of Credit (“L/C”), cash • utilizes portfolio theory and enables self-insurers to take advantage of scale bargaining • access to highly rated, non-traditional sources of risk transfer • more certain renewability • addresses structural issues within many existing programs

  5. SELF-INSURED FUNDS

  6. Self-Insured Funds Claims Flow COLLATERAL Surety, L/C, Cash Non-payment Claims Company A Claims Pool Claims Non-payment Company B Claims Non-payment Claims Company C Claims Non-payment Claims Claims Company D

  7. Self-Insured Funds Issues Issues with many existing programs... • inefficient collateral negotiation • premium/collateral cost “lost” to the market • lack of transparency • dependence on limited and highly volatile markets • inconsistent reserving  inequitable collateral • joint and several liability - credit subsidization?

  8. Self-Insured Funds Issues Issues with many existing programs (cont’d)... • increasing collateral costs/decreasing capacity • relatively easy for a self-insurer to “walk away” • credit risk of sureties • structural weakness may allow significant, unfunded liability to build • administrative burden • tracking several forms of collateral from multiple providers • lack of ability to create self-funding mechanism (retention)

  9. ALTERNATIVE COLLATERAL STRUCTURE

  11. Alternative Collateral Structure Benefits • Access highly rated, non-traditional sources of risk transfer • Efficient use of premium • Cash collateralize retention • Lower individual and aggregate costs to self-insureds • Reduce need for additional assessments • Transparent pricing (based on credit rating) • Significantly reduce administrative burden
