Greetings Welcome to the 2022 Presidents Managers Meeting Chair Steve Quinn s theme this year has been Our People Our Communities A Celebration of Success Each year the Presidents Managers Meeting brings together a unique community of individuals who have dedicated themselves to promoting the idea and practice of mutual insurance We all have a unique opportunity as mutual insurers to create organizations where People and their individual contribution still matter Communities are supported and nurtured The successes of our people and communities are celebrated 2022 has been a year where many things have seemingly returned to normal but at the same time it s a year that s been full of challenges for many of our mutuals many of our policyholders and many of our community partners Perhaps the greatest unsung contribution that insurance provides is that it is a foundation that enables economic activity in both personal and business investment Without insurance there is little opportunity for economic growth and prosperity is less certain and takes much longer The key role that insurance plays in spreading risk is vital to societies well being In challenging times it can be helpful to look with some pride on the role we play as small insurers in protecting and supporting people and communities We ll have lots of interesting discussions and speakers over the next couple of days Some of the most interesting discussion will probably be those that you have with both new and old colleagues Please take the opportunity to make those connections Your P M book includes detailed reports on the work of your committees The volunteers that make up these working groups have an important impact on the work that our people do and on the contribution we make back to the larger insurance community See you at Blue Mountain Mutually yours John Taylor President Ontario Mutual Insurance Association

Accounting Advisory Committee Report Mandate To assist member companies in meeting requirements for audit and financial reporting Chair Andrea Schaefer HT C Committee Members Christine Van Daele Westminster Dave Paterson Ayr Traci Radford West Wawanosh Kevin Konecny K E Catherine MacLellan FRC Bob Nielson FRC Bob Brown Farm Mutual Re Amy Butler Farm Mutual Re Sharon Dittmer OMIA Susan Baker OMIA Committee Focus The Accounting Advisory Committee monitors and contributes to dialogue on many issues including International Financial Reporting Standards IFRS changes to the statutory financial reporting forms required by the regulators requirements of the General Insurance Statistical Agency GISA tax both federal and provincial essentially any topic where the information required must be delivered to or extracted from the member company accounting and financial systems The committee forms a link between the Regulatory Review Committee where many of these requirements first come to light the Financial Review Committee and the Accountants Roundtable The Roundtable is composed of member company staff and management who are responsible for financial reporting and compliance The committee also works closely with the Financial Review Committee in reviewing changes to solvency rules such as revised MCT calculations This collaborative approach helps ensure that the implications of changes are understood and implemented consistently In 2022 much of the committee focus continued to be on implementation of IFRS 17 IFRS 17 Getting Ready In April 2018 the Accounting Advisory Committee launched a Gap Analysis Project with Ernst Young E Y The Committee elected to undertake this gap analysis as a precursor to developing more detailed implementation plans Partnering with E Y on the gap analysis process also provided some insight into the mandatory actuarial work that will be required under IFRS 17 in addition to the changes in accounting policies processes and reporting IFRS 17 has introduced new terminology and definitions around items such as level of policy aggregation onerous contracts liability for incurred claims and liability for remaining coverage Many of our old familiar ledger and balance sheet accounts such as unearned premium will disappear from our financial reports IFRS 17 will completely change financial reporting and the Accounting Advisory Committee has identified an opportunity to recommend standardization of accounting treatments and approaches to financial reporting among the mutuals In 2019 one key project was formalizing a model for accessing group actuarial services This was a priority project given the increased scrutiny and requirements under IFRS 17 for actuarial input and sign off for financial statements The Accounting Advisory Committee working with mutual auditors and other service providers such as E Y Accounting Advisory 2022

developed recommended wording and approaches such as Accounting treatments and policies Chart of accounts Accounting for reinsurance premium and proceeds Guideline on level of aggregation Guidelines on identifying onerous contracts Aggregated approaches to data collection for actuarial services Recommendations on accounting for policy acquisition costs Shared resources for management and board training on IFRS 17 Shared resources for actuarial services In 2020 it was announced that IFRS 17 would be delayed by one year and will be effective on January 1 2023 Implementation is required in 2022 in order to create comparative statements for the 2023 fiscal year In 2021 the committee continued to work on IFRS 17 readiness by developing position papers shared with mutuals participating in the group actuarial services project All draft position papers to date have been posted to the OMIA members website for members to review In work to date the Accounting Advisory Committee has included representatives from policy management systems to provide guidance on what system changes are required for data collection and financial reporting The committee has also been working closely with mutual auditors to ensure decisions are acceptable to our audit partners With the assistance from OMIA Statistics the Committee completed its work with three mutuals as test companies to ensure that the Actuary will receive premiums and claims data to provide the required actuarial services under IFRS 17 In 2022 the committee continued to work on finalizing position papers and working with mutuals to provide data to the Actuary to complete the 2023 P C 1s and to prepare IFRS 17 financial statements The Financial Review Committee also plays a critical role in IFRS 17 readiness and their contributions to the Committee and the Accountants Roundtable provide valuable insight to the potential impact on regulatory reporting and solvency examination The work of the Accounting Advisory Committee has been critical in assuring our regulator FSRA that despite the extreme level of complexity involved in the IFRS 17 transition our mutuals are well prepared well positioned and well resourced for the new Standard Accounting Advisory 2022

Automobile Committee Report Mandate To develop OMIA s position on auto insurance issues and communicate with the industry regulators and legislative ministries Chair Terry Knight North Blenheim Committee Members Kelly Jackson Westminster Linda Pereira Lambton Jon Hodson Farm Mutual Re Lisa Fazzari Farm Mutual Re Janet Schmidt OMIA Susan Baker OMIA John Taylor OMIA Background The Automobile Insurance Committee provides formal input to government consultations on potential changes to Ontario s automobile insurance product In reforms dating back over 25 years every part of the Ontario automobile insurance environment has been affected often radically by changes to either statute or regulation Each of these changes has required detailed study and comment from the insurance industry including OMIA The report that follows reflects the variety of issues requiring an OMIA response Automobile Insurance Emerges from the Pandemic The committee has monitored many issues in automobile insurance throughout 2022 From a public policy standpoint the most significant question is how stakeholders in the automobile insurance sector including the provincial government FSRA auto insurers suppliers and policyholders will pull together the threads of all the issues that emerged during the pandemic Many of the initial reforms in the 1990s focused on enrichment of statutory accident schedule benefits and creating more stringent claims handling regulations The Ontario auto insurance system has been described as evolving toward a social safety net Over time this has created a very generous insurance product with benefits that exceed those of any other province in Canada In addition the stringent rules governing pricing selection policy terms and claims processes have created a highly complex environment for both insurers and policyholders This in turn has led to more involvement of legal counsel on behalf of policyholders and an adversarial environment for auto claims The onset of the pandemic in 2020 created a temporary adjustment as lockdown conditions radically changed driving patterns and driver expectations In late 2022 while we have seen a significant return to normal driving patterns the impact of the pandemic remains incomplete and much about Ontario auto remains on pause as a result Behind the scenes however the government has been consulting vigorously on a wide range of potential changes relating to modernizing auto insurance Throughout 2022 a common theme for public discussion is whether driving behaviours in Ontario and traffic volume have returned to normal The general sense is that they have and increased claims frequency will drive costs upward with resultant pressure on price Another concern is supply chain issues and inflationary trends in repairing vehicle damage claims This has included pressure on loss of use claims where rental Automobile 2022

periods for replacement automobiles have been extended from days to weeks to months Whereas physical damage claims had been the most stable elements of the automobile product they have been among the most difficult to deal with in exiting the pandemic The need for increased premium creates a difficult public discussion on the affordability of automobile insurance Everyone is experiencing the impact of inflation on household budgets Automobile insurance is a significant portion of that budget and in Ontario is the most expensive of any Canadian province This inevitably collides with consumer backlash on the cost of insurance This debate is amplified by MPPs who use auto insurance as a wedge issue So while the cost of providing automobile insurance remains high short of product reform there are no obvious solutions to affordability Territorial Rating In Ontario insurers are allowed to charge differential rates based on territories They can only use a limited number of territories and must define these in rate filings made with FSRA The use of territories has always been considered as an appropriate and fair way to identify and charge for the higher risks associated with driving in areas where accident frequency and severity is higher Over the last several years there has been a loud debate led by MPPs representing the higher cost Toronto and GTA areas The government has repeatedly indicated they wish to address territories but have not been specific as to whether this will involve banning the use of territories or whether it will allow an expanded and flexible use of territories that might better represent risk allocation In any event OMIA has strongly advocated for the continued use of territories as banning them will undoubtedly result in drivers in rural lower traffic areas subsidizing drivers in higher risk urban areas Towing and Storage Fraud and Abuse The government introduced a series of pilot measures to address concerns over fraud when high cost towing and storage services are forced upon drivers at accident scenes This was particularly prevalent on major highways in the Toronto area OMIA has a Towing and Storage Working Group which has provided feedback to the Ministry of Transportation and others We continue to monitor these patterns closely but are hopeful that should the government pilot measures on policing towing and storage be extended across the province there should be a positive impact The License Appeal Tribunal Several years ago dispute resolution moved from FSCO to the License Appeal Tribunal LAT The LAT was a body the province had in place previously for a wide range of matters requiring adjudication outside the court system This was seen as a positive move that might remove some dispute resolution pressure from the regulator and increase both the effectiveness and speed of dispute resolution Unfortunately significant problems have been reported with the LAT particularly as related to delays in having cases dealt with There appears to be a lack of available resources and a huge backlog of disputes This is exacerbated by the concern that those bringing claims before the LAT are unprepared to exchange information and work towards a timely resolution There is also concern that the expertise on the LAT may not be as effective in dealing with statutory accident benefit disputes as with other matters Much of this is out of control of the insurance sector although it has been brought repeatedly to the attention of the regulator and others What is within the control of insurers is the ability to proactively investigate and settle cases particularly those involving serious injuries Being proactive and open to settlement in early stages typically can result in better long term results and more effective reserve management Automobile 2022

Optional Coverage for Direct Compensation Property Damage Direct Compensation Property Damage DCPD is a straightforward and mandatory coverage in Ontario auto insurance policies The government felt that making this an optional coverage would allow consumers more choice and give them the potential to reduce the overall cost of their insurance the Ontario Mutual Automobile Insurance Plan OMAP and the Auto Rate Filing Committee put together a toolkit and approach that allowed each mutual to understand their own compliance with Take All Comers and make an appropriate self assessment There are concerns over removing this coverage particularly as individuals who are not at fault in an accident and do not have this coverage will not be able to recover damages to their vehicle Nonetheless the government has moved ahead with an implementation date for 2023 We are closely monitoring the situation to be ready for the changes required to wordings process and policyholder advice Fair Treatment of Consumers Market Conduct Examination for Automobile Insurance In conjunction with their efforts on Take All Comers FSRA launched insurer examinations in 2022 This involved requesting comprehensive documentation from selected insurers with an assessment of the adequacy of each insurers policies procedures and controls as related to ensuring that all aspects of automobile insurance from application through to termination were fairly handled Auto Plus For many years the insurance industry has relied upon a third party information technology vendor to provide driver records and other information that is important in underwriting and pricing for automobile policies Due to concerns with the existing system the Insurance Bureau of Canada has led a cooperative effort to create a non profit equivalent to obtain the same underwriting information OMIA has subscribed to this on behalf of members and looks forward to the Auto Plus system in 2023 which should result in better security and lower costs Take All Comers A major initiative from FSRA was a directive to the industry that they would strictly monitor and enforce the interpretation on the take all comers rule This rule requires all insurers in Ontario to offer insurance to any qualifying applicant based on the insurers published rates In early 2022 all insurers were required to self evaluate their compliance with Take All Comers OMIA working with FSRA has not provided any further details on the outcome of their increased monitoring however we anticipate that this will continue to be a closely watched topic An Ontario mutual was selected as a company for examination Their experience is being closely monitored and lessons learned will be shared with other mutuals to allow for a greater understanding of the expectations and any potential gaps that may currently exist A report is not yet available but is expected before the end of the year Tomec versus Economical Over the past two years OMIA and Farm Mutual Re have asked all mutuals to provide data on the impact of this court decision which removed some of the time limits on certain types of claims We thank all mutuals for their participation in this and a final round of surveys was completed at mid year While there remain concerns with the Tomec versus Economical decision it was determined there was no material impact on existing claims for mutuals in the aggregate Looking Ahead With a government that has not been shy about commenting publicly on the affordability of automobile insurance and with this government in the early months of its mandate we may expect changes to the automobile product are more likely to take place Changes to the automobile product typically have a long implementation period due to complexity and the need to preserve existing legal rights and ensure an orderly transition We expect automobile insurance will continue to be a front door topic over the next two years Automobile 2022

members on the potential changes early in 2019 Overall the purpose of the study has been to investigate ways to reduce the volatility of the contribution requirement from employers and find ways to best manage or ideally reduce contribution risk in the future In 2019 the OMIA Board elected to make the following changes to the OMIA Defined Benefit DB Pension Plan effective January 1st 2022 1 The DB pension formula will change to 1 5 x credited service x final average earnings for future service only 2 The monthly employee and employer contributions will increase to 9 3 The indexing cap will decrease to 3 In June 2019 all companies participating in the Defined Benefit Pension Plan received a report on the OMIA Board s decision with respect to the changes listed above In September of 2019 an employee announcement detailing the plan changes was sent to all participating members of the Defined Benefit Pension Plan In November of 2019 a legal notice of upcoming pension plan changes was distributed to all participating active members of the Defined Benefit Pension Plan With these changes formalized OMIA and the plan actuary are revisiting and updating the study Pension Plan Text The Plan Text was restated January 1st 2021 incorporating all prior amendments to the previous plan text In addition we clarified terms and references with the text to ensure compliance with Canada Revenue Agency interpretations on payment of pension benefits Member companies were provided with written confirmation of the OMIA Plan s compliance in September 2022 Stewardship Review Defined Contribution Pension Plan OMIA as Plan Administrator and Canada Life as Plan Manager review the Defined Contribution DC Plan for stewardship and compliance annually This report provides feedback to OMIA on the design of the Plan and the services available to employees in the Defined Contribution Plan as compared to pension industry trends and best practices The review completed in November 2021 confirmed OMIA s DC Plan is well designed and current with best practices among employers The next review will take place in November 2022 Pension Valuation The OMIA Board of Directors elected to file an early valuation due to the significant improvement to the funded position of the Plan based on guidance from the actuaries interest rate environment the Plan membership information as of December 31 2021 and various other actuarial assumptions and legislative changes with respect to the funding of pension plans Results of that valuation revealed a small surplus on a solvency basis therefore no special payments were required The next mandated valuation is required for the period ending December 31 2024 The December 31 2021 valuation also indicated a required decrease to the employer normal cost effective January 1 2022 to 4 82 bringing the total employer contribution rate to 13 82 9 0 4 82 Transfer Status of Defined Benefit Pension Plan Financial markets reacted with a significant decline in equity markets at the onset of the COVID 19 pandemic Defined Benefit pension plans have significant exposure to equity markets and the decrease in underlying asset values affects the funded status of pension plans Annual Plan Review Defined Benefit Pension Plan This review is completed by OMIA as Plan Administrator and LifeWorks previously Morneau Shepell as Plan Actuary The annual plan review ensures that the OMIA Plan is compliant with both statute and regulations relating to pension plans in Ontario It also provides a formal review of governance practices to measure the Plan s policies and processes against best practices in the pension field In early 2020 the Financial Services Regulatory Authority of Ontario FSRA introduced regulations that restricted the ability of any plan to transfer lump sum pension entitlements to terminating members The purpose of the regulation is to ensure plans have sufficient capacity to protect all members following significant declines in funded status One of the regulations states that if the transfer ratio of a pension plan at the end of a quarter has deteriorated by more than 10 since the last valuation filed with the regulator the plan cannot process the payment of lump sum pension entitlements for terminating members without first obtaining approval from FSRA Benefits 2022

Following the market volatility that started in March 2020 a majority of the Defined Benefit pension plans experienced significant deterioration in asset values and funded status at the end of Q1 2020 Our own plan s transfer ratio as at March 31st 2020 was 77 3 This represented a decrease of more than 10 from the last reported transfer ratio of the plan 92 3 as reported in the January 1 2018 funding valuation report This decrease triggered the new regulation and as a result OMIA as Plan Administrator was required to request FSRA s approval to allow lump sum commuted value transfer payments to continue from the plan for terminating members At that time FSRA only approved commuted value transfer payments capped at the most recent transfer ratio of 77 3 The remaining 22 7 of commuted value owing to terminating members can only be made subject to a sponsor top up payment or may also be paid within five years if the transfer ratio improves to the most recently filed transfer ratio of 92 3 be paid out prior to December 31 2022 Going forward all transfer payments can be paid out at 100 There will be no special funding call in 2022 Rate of Return Defined Benefit Pension Plan The 2021 annual return on assets as at December 31 2021 was 11 72 Total Assets under management was 219 809 025 Employee Benefits Health and Dental Coverage The OMIA Health and Dental Plan operates under an ASO Administrative Services Only model In an ASO model participating companies essentially selfinsure and fund claims through direct premium assessment to member companies Services to administer claims under the plan are purchased from a life and health insurer This model provides the most cost effective basis for the benefit plan while also ensuring claims are adjudicated at armslength on a confidential basis For those terminating members who elect a lump sum payment OMIA proceeds with transfers at 77 3 of the lump sum owing Each terminating member receives notice of the restriction and future considerations on the remaining lump sum owing Notice of the regulatory change and future considerations on the remaining lump sum owing is included in a member s pension termination document therefore all members terminating now receive this documentation and can make their decision on the form of pension they wish to take accordingly Note that the hold back provision only applied to members electing the lump sum transfer option upon termination or retirement This has no impact on processing retirement calculations or terminating members who elect deferred annuity options it will also have no effect on any DC Plan members In 2020 and 2021 the OMIA Board elected to make a funding call to allow for the release of funds being held back in each of these years For the first three quarters of 2022 the plan has continued to pay lump sum transfers at 77 3 holding back the remaining 22 7 Due to the improved funded position of the plan arising from favourable liability development OMIA filed a formal valuation which reflected an increased transfer ratio such that all outstanding holdbacks in 2022 plus interest can The OMIA Benefits Committee monitors the ASO claims experience history changes in participation levels and claims utilization data The committee also provides input on benefits issues that are brought forward by member companies and monitors the ASO target reserve In 2021 the committee reviewed the target reserve set in 2019 and recommended increasing the current target level over the next five years Some of the items and trends of interest this year have been Long Term Disability LTD rates decreased by 20 at the 2022 renewal Sun Life instituted a new disability incidence factor in 2021 for calculating LTD rates and OMIA experienced a rate decrease even with the inclusion Benefits 2022

Page 28

Ontario Automobile Insurance Ontario Building Code Review Tort Reform Small Insurers These are longstanding issues and issues relating to automobile insurance and tort reform should be familiar to many MPPs as these have been public policy topics for many years As related to automobile insurance our key message continues to be that true cost containment or improved affordability for Ontario drivers can only take place with significant product reform This has been a consistent industry message The pandemic related political pressure for rate reduction and ongoing discussion on removing territorial rating due to perceived bias however has served to increase the public policy debate on affordability and the cost of auto insurance As related to the Ontario Building Code the key message continues to be that the province must take a leadership role in creating climate resiliency within the Building Code This remains a difficult sell as there are other stakeholders who resist even nominal changes to the Building Code that may be seen to increase building complexity or impact the cost of housing can be seen in many ways Examples were provided where FSRA assessment fees almost doubled between 2020 and 2021 In addition to meet increasing demands for reporting insurers must add significant additional resources Mutuals also report concerns with having to choose between focusing on policyholders and meeting regulatory expectations The key message is that these additional costs brought by regulation will be borne by the policyholder and will increase the cost of insurance without any perceivable increase in benefit or safety to policyholders There was also an opportunity to review the recently introduced regulations concerning the sale of property and casualty insurance in credit union branches Input from OMIA the Insurance Brokers Association of Ontario and other key stakeholders resulted in what is seen as improvements to regulations to maintain consumer protection from tied selling which may arise from the sale of insurance by deposit taking institutions The Roundtable was also an opportunity to revisit the Election Project Delegates were urged to make direct contact with candidates in the lead up to the June election and to ensure follow up with successful candidates following the election Key steps in the election process include Working individually or in teams with neighboring mutuals to communicate the value of mutuals to their communities Using the Grassroots brochure and increasing awareness on the Give Back programs that the Ontario Mutuals implemented throughout the pandemic Following a discussion on the election project each company was also asked to provide reports on the key issues that were impacting their ridings These included a wide range of issues many of which were not insurance related Here is a small sample of a few of the issues identified OMIA s creation of a provincial issue relating to small insurers reflects the pressure felt both nationally and provincially as regulators continue to make more demands on data reporting In addition regulators appear to be increasingly proactive in requiring insurers to prove governance and market conduct controls without consideration to an insurer s previous exemplary behaviour in these areas The increased pressure on small insurers Housing availability and affordability The creation of the 413 Highway and removing land from production The use of Ministerial Zoning Orders Rural land zoning and use Improved access to broadband Long term care funding Legislative Affairs 2022

Market Issues Committee Report Mandate To gather and analyze industry market information that affects Mutuals ability to sell their product and serve policyholders to disseminate this information to the mutuals and to connect with industry groups Chair Marg Torrance Halwell Committee Members Ed Forbes Dufferin Rob Moorehead McKillop Pam Marson Grenville Jeff Consitt Farm Mutual Re Sharon Turnbull Farm Mutual Re Susan Baker OMIA John Taylor OMIA The Market Issues Committee proactively identifies and researches issues that affect how where and when insurance products are sold to policyholders The committee s discussions on major issues are shared with the membership through the MarketWatch bulletin The committee also helps OMIA plan subject matter and topics of interest for meetings roundtables and conferences Perhaps the most important part of the committee s process is to answer the question about any emerging issue What will this mean to my mutual 2022 has marked the third year of pandemic related disruptions to the overall economy and the insurance marketplace In addition to the countless issues relating to lockdowns and reopenings in the first half of 2022 policyholders and insurers have been faced with the economic impacts of an inflationary economy supply chain breakdowns war in the Ukraine severe weather trends an active Catastrophe year and dismal returns on investments volatility that can be created by rapidly rising prices This shows up in challenges on maintaining insurance to value and ensuring premiums are adequate to meet the increased cost of claims In the short term this is exacerbated in the insurance industry because rising interest rates often the contributing cause of rising inflation also have a negative effect on fixed income values and fixed income is the predominant asset class held by insurers as reserves against future claims Simply put as the cost of claims go up due to inflation the assets you are holding in reserve are experiencing a market value decline in the inflationary environment More twists and turns are expected before any semblance of stability or predictability returns to the market However in the meantime here are some of the topics the Market Issues Committee focused on in 2022 and discussed in the MarketWatch publication Inflation and Pricing The topic of inflation and specifically its impact on insurance is an increasing threat With decades of declining interest rates and extremely low annual movement in inflation and CPI the insurance industry has had minimal recent experience with the Across the insurance and reinsurance industry this has created uncertainty as to the adequacy of the tools used to ensure that homes and business are insured adequately to value Maintaining adequate values from an underwriting standpoint is a fundamental factor in sound long term underwriting and sufficiency of premium Market Issues 2022

Page 31

The necessity to make significant increases on home and business valuations to maintain insurance to value runs directly into potential conflict with customers who are also experiencing the impacts of inflation and feeling their own budgets squeezed Paying more for insurance typically creates a pain point for everyone involved but is a necessary part of ensuring long term stability of risk transfer Given the amount of stimulus money put into the economy during the pandemic some degree of consumer inflation was inevitable 2022 has added fuel to that fire particularly as related to the cost of fuel The war in the Ukraine while creating global unrest and untold human suffering also disrupted the global energy supply with a huge spike in fuel prices Older insurance professionals will remember the impact of pricing fuel costs in the 1970s due to the OPEC crisis which led to a long term inflationary environment which existed into the 1990s Supply Chain Disruption In some ways this is a contributing factor to inflation but from an insurance context supply chain problems create a unique dilemma for insurers Policyholders and insurers when making a claim on either a home business or auto policy are making a forced purchase They don t have the option of deferring the purchase and must absorb increased costs caused by supply scarcity or delay fully and immediately These supply chain problems started early in the pandemic but the catastrophic storm claims in 2022 have added even more pressure to the cost of availability of materials While we often think of the supply chain in the context of materials Canada has also been experiencing a severe skills and labour shortage This labour shortage has spanned the entire unskilled labour market the trades and the professions This has added to claims pressures with the situation where both material and labour are under strain when they are needed the most Brokerage Consolidation The Canadian brokerage market has seen the acceleration of consolidation of small brokers into larger entities In some instances these consolidations are the result of well planned succession and the merging of relatively small brokers to form slightly larger organizations Unfortunately however the two primary types of competitors for the purchase of brokerages are venture capitalists and property casualty insurers themselves There are numerous models for broker consolidation however the long term impact of few brokerage firms providing advice and markets to policyholders can be seen as a negative impact particularly for smaller insurers Mutuals both through Collectivfide and independently have also been strategic in acquiring interests in the distribution chain and have typically done so to maintain market share while also allowing broker operators to continue to operate on a scale that makes sense to them Nonetheless the consolidation trend continues to be a significant strategic risk and one that will continue to play out over the coming years Catastrophe Claims There are weather related catastrophes that impact mutuals and the insurance industry at large every year Catastrophe claims have always been with us The last several years have shown an increasing severity and breadth of damage arising from catastrophe claims The May 21 derecho in Ontario created a record setting number of claims from a frequency and severity standpoint The extent of damage was unprecedented While derechos have been reported frequently in the United States this experience is new to Ontario and has certainly created an increased awareness of the potential risk from a loss standpoint as well as the need for strong contingency plans for catastrophe response 2022 has also seen the unprecedented impact of post tropical storm Fiona on the maritime provinces with a particular focus on PEI coastal Nova Scotia and Newfoundland From a mutual standpoint the impact of Fiona on our colleagues in Nova Scotia and PEI has been devastating and underlines new horizons ahead in catastrophe management Underlying all of this is the reality that climate change and our social and economic response to it will potentially be the biggest single global risk factor to be dealt with in the near medium and long term Looking Ahead The Market Issues Committee remains an important forum for developing responses to market trends and providing educational and discussion opportunities for member companies The committee publishes MarketWatch two to three times a year and the latest editions can be viewed at omia com Hover over Member Resources and find it under Marketing Market Issues 2022

Regulatory Review Committee Report Mandate To review regulatory issues that affect member companies Chair Marg Torrance Halwell Committee Members Shawn Durnin Axiom Jeff Whiting Ayr Bryan Hicks Trillium John Stirk Dufferin Jackie Roy OMIA John Taylor OMIA The Regulatory Review Committee is the key liaison with insurance regulators including the Financial Services Regulatory Authority of Ontario FSRA Regulatory oversight is an active area for insurers provincially nationally and globally In fact many insurers identify the threat of regulatory intervention as an enterprise risk The committee focuses on the regulation activity in solvency market conduct and governance These requirements continue to evolve in complexity and increasingly reflect international trends on financial regulation In 2022 FSRA continued to define and fill out its regulatory structure and its relationship with stakeholders This relationship is much more complex than had been the case with its predecessor the Financial Services Commission of Ontario Simply put FSRA is a bigger organization with more departments headcount and financial capacity to impact the regulatory environment In 2022 there were more and better opportunities for meetings with some key FSRA working groups particularly their Market Conduct teams and their project team on the Insurance Prudential Supervisory Framework In addition to OMIA and the Regulatory Review Committee meeting with FSRA stakeholders we continue to respond to and deal with adhoc meeting requests as related to insurance availability and other matters of interest to the regulator and various government ministries We anticipate one of the challenges moving into the future will be dealing with the increasing number of consultations on new projects from FSRA and particularly on the impact of these projects on mutual insurers Ministry of Government and Consumer Services Corporations Act The pandemic created an environment where the Corporations Act long overdue for updating needed to be amended on a temporary basis to allow for virtual meetings This provided an opportunity for OMIA to discuss with the Ministry of Government and Consumer Services and the Ministry of Finance important changes that could be made to allow for flexibility on the number of directors required for mutual boards Currently mutual boards must total between 6 and 15 directors and the board complement must be divisible by 3 We have asked often for the removal of this divisible by 3 requirement While there have been no changes yet we are encouraged by the willingness to consider opportunities to make this change and will continue to work diligently on it In the interim the Ministry of Government and Consumer Services have allowed for the extension of the use of virtual meetings for a further limited time which should allow for flexibility in the event of unforeseen circumstances arising from ongoing pandemic issues Credit Union Insurance Sales This was an important topic in late 2021 and early in 2022 The Ministry of Finance had given credit unions the power to sell property and casualty insurance in credit union branches This sales power is unique to credit unions as deposit taking institutions OMIA and the Insurance Brokers Association of Ontario as well as other stakeholders made a series of submissions on how rules should be drafted to prohibit tied selling ensure transparency on commission and referral fee arrangements restrict data sharing and making sure the insurance distributor in a credit union was a separate corporate entity from the credit union itself Regulatory Review 2022

We believe that these suggestions and work have resulted in better rules and consumer protection measures To date there has not been a significant strategic initiative by credit unions to take advantage of these new sales powers and there remains the opportunity to consider strategic alliances that may be beneficial to both mutuals and credit unions as member based financial service organizations Federal Privacy Regulation The Federal government continues to struggle with pulling together their proposed changes to Federal Privacy Law A Bill read into parliament in June indicated it would break PIPEDA into 3 separate areas or acts Consumer Privacy Artificial Intelligence and Data Personal Information and Data Protection Tribunal This will remain a difficult file for the Federal government to tie together coherently however we are closely monitoring changes and following developments and we are hopeful any changes will be based on a graduated approach Provincial Workplace Legislation The Province of Ontario introduced two workplace related statutes requiring some additional policies for employers in Ontario This included creating a Disconnect from Work Policy for all employees as well as a policy on the Electronic Monitoring of Employees by Employers In responding to these changes OMIA had an opportunity to review how mutuals currently approached each of these issues then having conducted further legal research as to the requirements of the statute released the most appropriate wording policy templates to member companies to assist them in complying with the new laws Overall we believe that these statutes have required very little in terms of practical changes at the mutual level due to previously sound corporate policy and values The templated approach has also minimized the amount of work required by each mutual to become compliant Insurance Prudential Solvency Framework The mutuals have had a unique relationship with the provincial regulator as related to solvency oversight This stems from the creation of the Fire Mutuals Guarantee Fund in the 1970s and the work done by the mutuals in developing tools to monitor the solvency of individual mutuals and the mutual system itself These tools have included the development of Early Warning Tests the standardization of and education on P C1 returns and Management Discussion Analysis Reports and stress testing Most importantly it stems from the creation of the Financial Review Committee and subsequently the Financial Examination Committee From the early 2000s the Financial Examination Financial Review Committee has carefully monitored mutual solvency and reported to the regulator on an ongoing basis to optimize policyholder safety while at the same time ensuring a cost efficient and effective window on the solvency of each mutual for the regulator FSRA s published consultation on the creation of an Insurance Prudential Solvency Framework IPSF largely based on international standards was put forward in early 2022 OMIA and members of the Fire Mutuals Guarantee Fund Trustee group the Financial Review Committee and the membership at large took part in a series of committee meetings with FSRA as they reviewed the general principles of the IPSF Throughout the process the mutual representatives have stressed the importance of the concept of both practicality and proportionality in any solvency oversight framework In late June FSRA published an Approach consultation paper setting out their vision of solvency supervision OMIA and the Fire Mutuals Guarantee Fund made a detailed submission to FSRA expressing concerns with the potential to lose proportionality and cost efficiency Many member companies have also made individual submissions to FSRA expressing their concerns that the framework does not consider the transparency and customer focus embodied by small mutual insurers While the IPSF consultation remains ongoing the Financial Review Committee has been reviewing with FSRA their Regulatory Review 2022

request for enhanced financial data reporting A pilot project is taking place in the 4th quarter of 2022 The level of engagement and effort put forward by the Financial Review Committee the Fire Mutuals Guarantee Fund OMIA and member companies in providing meaningful feedback to FSRA should not be underestimated and this has been a considerable focus for mutual resources and priorities this year OMIA s Regulatory Review Committee and Compliance Working Group have been closely monitoring the first of these examinations of a mutual and will continue to share the results and lessons learned with the membership in general Of interest as related to the Fair Treatment of Consumers it appears that FSRA is primarily focusing on the sale and provision of automobile insurance as this is the form of insurance with the greatest degree of written regulation particularly as related to pricing and selection Of benefit to the mutuals has been the willingness of FSRA s Market Conduct Management Team to meet on a regular basis with the Regulatory Review Committee to share their priorities and planning To continue to understand the changing regulatory environment and the experience of other member based financial institutions the Regulatory Review Committee met with the Canadian Credit Union Association on September 15 Credit Unions have been working with FSRA on many similar reporting issues and experience similar challenges in adapting to some of the regulatory structures being imposed This opportunity to work with the Canadian Credit Union Association was beneficial and will continue Fair Treatment of Consumers and Market Conduct Examinations Another FSRA initiative has been to examine automobile insurers to determine the extent to which they are structured to be compliant with the Fair Treatment of Consumers Guideline as promoted by the Canadian Council of Insurance Regulators for the past several years The OMIA Compliance Roundtable and the ERM Forum Over two years ago the Compliance Roundtable was established to give mutuals an opportunity to discuss compliance issues and compare solutions to common problems The Roundtable continues to meet under Chair Bryan Hicks and is facilitated by Jackie Roy OMIA Compliance Resource Officer In addition to the Roundtable an informal group known as the ERM Forum has met virtually to discuss issues specifically relating to Enterprise Risk Management Looking Ahead Regulatory activity will remain very high as FSRA continues to establish itself and attempt to adapt to both national and international regulatory trends The Regulatory Review Committee will continue to put the mutuals best foot forward as highly conscientious and member focused organizations Regulatory Review 2022
