Statutory filings by federally registered insurers
Federally registered insurers submit their statutory filings only to the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions Canada.
Actuary's Report

Foreign insurers are not required to file a copy of their Actuary's Report.

Quebec
Under the Act respecting insurance, CQLR, c. A-32, (the "Act"), every insurer is required to file with the Autorité des marchés financiers (the "AMF" or the "Authority") in such form as the AMF may determine, the documents and information it requires.
The AMF will no longer send a letter each year listing the documents and information required under the Act. This information will now be available only through the AMF Bulletins and postings on the AMF website.
For further information, consult the Notice on filing for P&C Insurers on the AMF website.
Legislation
Refer to QC's website.
Language
N/A
Signature requirements
In accordance with section 309 of the Act, the two persons signing the Annual Return must be directors of the insurer.
Statutory filings by federally registered insurers
Please consult the Notice on the AMF website.
Actuary's Report
Pursuant to sections 298.14 and 309 of the Act, every insurer authorized to underwrite "damage" (property and casualty) insurance in Quebec must attach an actuary's Expression of Opinion on the valuation of the provisions and reserves to its Annual filing.
A copy of the Actuary's Report that establishes and presents the provisions and reserves must be forwarded to the Autorité des marchés financiers upon request.
The actuary will have to include a description of the assumptions and methods used in the valuation of the said reserves or provisions and also state and justify the criteria that have served as the basis for choices made.
Moreover, the AMF may require certain insurers to include other information in the report.
Insurers with charters from outside Quebec that transact insurance in Quebec must file a copy of the Actuary's Report filed with their home jurisdiction.
A copy of the resolution of the board of directors concerning the appointment of the actuary must be forwarded to the AMF within 10 days of the actuary's initial appointment or at the change of the actuary.
For foreign insurers, the Actuary's Report must contain a certificate testifying that:
- the reserves maintained by the insurer to guarantee its obligations toward the insured are not less than the reserves required by the Act or by its "Act of Incorporation", if it is more restrictive;
- the reserves of provisions are calculated on the basis of appropriate assumptions with respect to the circumstances of the insurer and its contracts of insurance; and
- the reserves make good and sufficient provision to cover all obligations under such contracts.
Auditor Report
For Quebec-incorporated insurers, the report is to be addressed to the AMF. All other insurers licensed in Quebec must submit a copy of the Auditor Report addressed to their regulator.
In addition, Canadian insurers are expected to provide the AMF with a copy of their Annual Report including the Auditor Report to the shareholders and members. Foreign insurers are expected to provide the AMF with a copy of the Annual Report for their total business.
Special reporting
Every insurer licensed to write business in Quebec, whether incorporated under the laws of Quebec, the laws of Canada or some other jurisdiction, must:
- for Canadian insurers, complete pages 10.16, 60.10, 80.20, 93.35, 95.10 and 95.20 of the Annual filings;
- for foreign insurers, complete pages 10.16, 60.10, 80.20, 85.40, 85.45, 85.60 and 85.65 of the Annual filings;
- for Canadian insurers, complete page 93.35 if insurer has written, during the current year or in a prior year, policies for a term of more than 12 months. The data reported on page 93.35 must include
- for policies for a term not exceeding 12 months
- total premiums for policies written during the current year;
- for policies for a term of more than 12 months
- only the portion of premiums applicable to the twelve months during the current year.
- for policies for a term not exceeding 12 months
A copy of the major letters of credit and/or confirmation from trustees of deposits held for the account of the insurer (reported on page 70.40) must be attached to the Annual Return.
Loans and advances to subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures (with greater than 10% ownership interest)
Quebec-incorporated insurers must show loans and advances to subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures (with greater than 10% ownership interest) on page 50.32. See the instructions for page 50.32 in the document "Section VI - Detailed instructions."

The limit is applicable to all insurers licensed in Quebec. General requirements concerning letters of credit are set out below:
- Letters of credit must be in Canadian dollars and payable in Canada. Letters of credit must be issued by a Canadian bank or confirmed by a Canadian bank if issued by a foreign bank;
- They must be for a fixed term, at least one year;
- They must be for a stipulated dollar amount;
- They must be irrevocable except with at least three months notice to the Regulator. This condition can be satisfied either by a provision in letter of credit or by a letter of confirmation from the issuing bank; and
- The issuing bank and the confirming bank must not have any claim on the assets of the Canadian insurance company as security for the letters of credit.
A copy of the major letters of credit must be sent with the Annual Return.
Financial statements of subsidiaries and associates
Insurers licensed in Quebec must file a copy of their subsidiaries' and associates' financial statements (where required) with their Annual Return, for those subsidiaries and associates reported on page 92.10, line 40.
Minimum Capital Test (MCT) – (Pages 30.61 to 30.92)
Instructions for completing these pages for insurers incorporated in Quebec are in the guideline on capital adequacy requirements available on the AMF's website.
Consequently, instructions in Section IV do not apply to those insurers.
Registered insurer/reinsurer
To be deemed approved, the insurer must be approved in Quebec or another province, or subject to federal regulation.
Registered reinsurer: A reinsurance agreement is deemed registered if it was assumed by an insurer constituted under the laws of Quebec, of another province, or of Canada, and in this case, licensed by one or more provincial regulator(s). A reinsurance agreement is also deemed registered if it was assumed by the branch of a foreign company authorized by the federal authority and licensed by one or more provincial regulator(s), and if the branch maintains assets guaranteeing the fulfilment of its obligations under the agreement.
Ontario
Other specific instructions enabling insurers to meet Ontario's requirements may be circulated by the Chief Executive Officer to the appropriate insurers prior to year end.
Legislation
Refer to ON's website.
Language
Filings in either official language are acceptable.
Signature requirements
The Annual Return must be verified by the president, vice-president or managing director, or other director appointed for the purpose by the board of directors and by the secretary or manager of the insurer.
Statutory filings by federally registered insurers
In accordance with section 102 of the Ontario Insurance Act, federally registered insurers licensed in Ontario must submit their statutory filings only to the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions Canada.
Actuary's Report
Subsection 121.13 of the Insurance Act (Part II.1) requires that every insurer incorporated in Ontario, except those described in subsection 121.20, must submit with its Annual Return a valuation report by the appointed actuary on his/her evaluation of actuarial and other policy liabilities of the insurer. The exception under subsection 121.20 applies if the insurer is a mutual insurance corporation that is a member of the Fire Mutuals Guarantee Fund.
The Report must be addressed to the Chief Executive Officer, Financial Services Regulatory Authority of Ontario (FSRA), and must comprise a certificate and a report, both of which must be signed. Detailed instructions for completing the Report were forwarded to the insurers and will be updated separately through correspondence with the companies.
Note: Federally regulated insurers are not required to file an Actuary's Report with FSRA.
Auditor Report
All insurers incorporated in Ontario are required to have their Auditor Report addressed to the Chief Executive Officer, FSRA. All other insurers licensed in Ontario should refer to the general instructions in Section II.
All provincially incorporated insurers licensed in Ontario are expected to provide the FSRA with a copy of their Annual Report including the Auditor Report to the shareholders and members when published.
Earthquake
Refer to the OSFI's Earthquake Exposure Sound Practices guidelines.
Letters of credit
In general, letters of credit may be used to offset the reserve for unregistered reinsurance to the extent of 30% of the total amount of the unearned premiums and outstanding losses recoverable from assuming reinsurers.
The Chief Executive Officer must be made aware of the details of letters of credit from affiliated unregistered reinsurers.
Discounting
Actuarial liabilities are required to be reported on a discounted basis. The discounting requirement will apply to Ontario-incorporated property and casualty insurance companies and to reciprocal exchanges in Ontario for which the Actuary's Report is required.
Ontario FOIPOPA consent form
The Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act, R.S.O. 1990, chapter F.31 (FOIPOPA) provides that where information about an individual is not collected directly from the individual, the collection is lawful only if, among other things, it is authorized by a statute. Further, whenever information is collected about an individual, that individual must be informed of the legal authority for its collection and the principal purpose for which the personal information is intended to be used.
Since the Annual Return includes personal information, the Consent and Notification Form issued pursuant to the FOIPOPA must be completed by all provincially incorporated insurers. The insurer must provide a copy to each individual named in page 10.15 of the Annual Return. Since the insurer is aware of many of these individuals, it is strongly recommended that the insurer begin the notification process well in advance of the filing due date. The certificate is to be signed by the same person who signs the Annual Return.
General information
All Ontario-incorporated insurers must complete the general information pages 10.10 to 10.60.
Except for the insurers prescribed in section 102(9) of the Act or in the Regulations, all Ontario-incorporated insurers must complete the statutory compliance pages for the MCT (30.70, 30.71 and 30.73). The MCT is to be completed using the Superintendent's guideline 08/04.
Working papers
In accordance with section 443 of the Act, insurers licensed in Ontario are required to maintain appropriate working papers to support the information contained in the Annual Return.
Securities lending
Securities lending is prohibited for companies incorporated in Ontario.
Financial statements of subsidiaries
Ontario-incorporated insurers should have a copy of the current financial statements of each subsidiary available at head office.

Alberta incorporated insurers - Section 44(3)(f) of the Insurance Act states the Annual Return (affidavit on page 99.10) must be approved and signed by the president, vice-president or managing director or other director appointed for the purpose by the board of directors and by the secretary or manager of the company.

Statutory filings by federally registered insurers
Federally registered insurers are required to file a fourth quarter P&C Return and Annual Supplement with the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions Canada. This will satisfy the reporting requirement for the comparable period.
Actuary's Report
Pursuant to section 44(3)(d) of the Insurance Act, Alberta-incorporated insurers licensed under this Act must submit, with the Annual Return, an opinion, in accordance with section 405.
Insurers incorporated and reciprocals formed and/or transferred into Alberta must file a copy of the actuarial report with an Expression of Opinion in accordance with the instructions set out by OSFI in its annual memorandums to the appointed actuary.
The Actuary's report is required to include an Unpaid Claims and Loss Ratio Analysis Exhibit, consistent with the OSFI requirements.
Federally and extraprovincially incorporated insurers are not required to file their Actuary's Report.
Discounting of reserves
Effective January 1, 2003, the reporting of actuarial liabilities on a discounted basis by Alberta-incorporated property and casualty insurance companies and reciprocal insurance exchanges is optional.
