All starts with the Corporate Strategy

expand our position as a leading,

globally operating reinsurance group,

delivering profitability that is above the

average of the sector.

• We are passionate about reinsurance

and chart our own course. We are quick,

flexible and independent; striving for

excellence in our actions. We aspire to

be the best option for our business

partners when it comes to choosing a

reinsurance provider.

Active Risk Management is 3rd strategic commandment

• In order to accomplish our business objectives, we enter into a broad range of

risks which – while offering opportunities for profit – can also have adverse

implications for the company.

• Risk management – in both quantitative and qualitative terms – is therefore of

vital importance. The foundation of our risk management strategy is our

Economic Capital Model. Based on this model we manage our risk exposure to

achieve a positive IFRS net income with a probability of XX%. We also ensure

that the probability of a complete loss of our economic as well as IFRS

shareholders' equity does not exceed 0.0Y% p.a..

• On this basis, our shareholders' equity is allocated to the individual areas of our

business activity with the aim of maximizing the risk-adjusted profits.

• The details of our risk management approach are set out in the Risk Strategy

which is approved and regularly reviewed by the Executive Board. In this regard

special importance is given to the initiative of the Chief Risk Officer.

The risk strategy reflects the segregation of tasks

• Our overriding objective

• The overriding objective of our risk management is to adhere to the strategically

defined risk positions of the Hannover Re Group: The expected return on equity

after tax shall be at least ZZZ basis points above the risk-free interest rate.

• Occurrence of a net loss under IFRS (return on equity less than or equal to 0) with

a recurrence period of maximum once in AA years.

• Complete loss of IFRS shareholders' equity with a probability of less than 0.0Y %

p.a.

• In this context a capitalisation that ensures the 3 following conditions is absolutely

indispensable:

– The target rating (Example: "AA-" from Standard & Poor's, "A+" from A.M. Best)

– Regulatory Solvency Ratio: Solvency Ratio >100%

– Probability of economic ruin < 0.0Y% p.a.

Our overriding objective

• Overriding Objective

• Explain rationale for ERM

– External requirements (supervisors, rating agencies)

– Internal motivation (contribution to value creation)

– Necessary organisational platform (segregation of tasks)

• Explain basic documents and their strategic embedding

– Point of departure: corporate strategy

– Risk strategy

– Risk management framework guideline (incl. tasks and responsibilities)

– System of limits and thresholds (Overview)

– Specific guidelines (e. g. BCM, IS, DQM)

• Compare group situation with local situation

– Supervisory environment

– Business risk environment

• Agree on to do´s

– Local vs. central ERM responsibility (local CRO? Local Risk Committee?)

– Reporting lines, reporting formats (incl. ad hoc reporting)

Risk communication throughout the entire organisation

Hannover Re will apply for internal model approval

Convergence of internal and external requirements?

Standard Model

•Value-at-Risk at 99.5% confidence level

•Scenario based approach

•Predefined risk categories - not tailored to the company's individual risk profile

•Calibration of risk factors based on "average company"

•"Average company" correlation structure

•Adequate for small companies without complex or highly unique risks

•Limited resource requirements

•Limited suitability for risk management and business decision purposes (just external reporting)

Internal Model

•Full distribution of capital requirements

•Stochastic modelling

•Quantitative modelling of all material risk categories for Hannover Re

•Calibration of risk factors by company-specific data

•Company-specific dependency structure reflecting (worldwide) diversification effects adequately (e.g. catastrophe risk)

•Adequate for a Global Reinsurer and large multi-national insurers

•Gives important additional information for capital management and business decision purposes (internal and external reporting)

•Adequate integration into decision processes and risk management of the HR Group

• Hannover Re has engaged in 2008 with the German regulator to prepare Solvency

II pre-application for internal model approval

• Since then we have explained our approach to capital modelling in over 100

meetings to the regulator

– Coverage of all major areas of the model

– Coverage of all aspects of Pillar II

– Coverage of almost all EEA entities and one non-EEA entities � early engagement with

local regulators

• All areas where gaps had been identified in the review process have been

addressed in the past years. Currently, we are in the process of fine-tuning our

systems and processes, e.g. in the areas

– Own risk and solvency assessment (ORSA)

– Model validation

– Profit and loss attribution

– Legal entity reporting (in contrast to group reporting)

Internal model approval on track
