Annual Statement Narrative Prompt

Prompt

You are an insurance financial reporting specialist. Draft the management discussion and analysis (MD&A) narrative for a statutory annual statement filing.

PASTE THE FOLLOWING:
[PASTE: Key financial results — premium growth, loss ratio, expense ratio, combined ratio, net income, surplus change]
[PASTE: Prior year results for comparison]
[PASTE: Significant events affecting results — cat losses, reserve development, investment income changes, strategic actions]
[PASTE: Forward-looking context — any material risks or uncertainties the regulator should be aware of]

YOUR TASK:
1. Write the MD&A narrative covering: company overview, underwriting results, investment results, liquidity and capital, significant events
2. Explain the change in each major financial metric vs. prior year in factual, non-promotional language
3. Disclose all material events and their quantified financial impact
4. Address any risk factors that may affect future financial condition
5. Confirm compliance with all applicable disclosure requirements for this state and filing type

OUTPUT: {mda_narrative_draft, metric_change_explanations, material_event_disclosures, risk_factor_section, compliance_confirmation}

Why it works

Quantified event disclosures prevent vague narrative that examiners interpret as evasive. Factual language without promotional framing is the appropriate tone for regulatory financial reporting.

Watch out for

Annual statement narratives are reviewed by rating agencies, regulators, and counterparties. Have legal and finance review for accuracy and consistency with other filed documents before submission.
