Tax Solutions for Leading Insurers

The Insurance industry has undergone a tremendous transformation over the last decade including globalization, deregulation, and mergers and acquisitions. The industry is characterized by a demanding customer and channel base and the need for product innovation, faster processing times and various statutory/regulatory requirements at the state/provincial and federal levels. This has led to mounting pressure on the bottom line due to heavy competition, dropping investment income and high underwriting expenses. This is further exacerbated by the reporting and compliance requirements stipulated by various state/provincial and federal regulations.

Tax Reporting Challenges

Due to budgetary constraints, tax departments in the Insurance industry are consistently being asked to "do more with less", struggling with resource-intensive data collection, preparation, validation and reporting. The uncertain tax legislative environment, compliance with multiple statutory and regulatory requirements and the over-reliance on spreadsheets further aggravates the situation.

All these factors have resulted in serious business challenges including:

  • Having to comply with multiple global statutory requirements including GAAP and SAP
  • Complicated spreadsheets to calculate unique insurance specific calculations, such as non-admissible deferred tax (SSAP 10)
  • Difficulties in providing details below the legal-entity level in the tax reports
  • Significant reporting workload, including investment reporting
