AXIS Module - Earnings By Source

The Earnings by Source Modules of AXIS are separately licensed enhancements to each of the liability Modules that support the analysis of projected and actual Canadian GAAP earnings by the major sources of profit (also called Gain and Loss analysis).

The features also enable the creation of various movement analysis reports (policy count, reserves, etc.) again on a planned or actual basis, and the preparation of flexible experience analysis reports that compare actual to expected movements by number or amount, or calculate average rates of actual to exposed experience.

Earnings by Source functionality is available to use with all of the liability modules of AXIS, but the approach to the reporting format for the earnings analysis uses one of two approaches reflecting fundamental differences in the way different product types are managed:

• Traditional EBS Report format, which is applicable to traditional products modeled in the Regular, Par, Disability and Payout annuity Modules.
• Fund based EBS Report which is applicable to flexible Fund based products modeled in the UL Module and the accumulation phase within the Annuity Module.

Future enhancements will extend Earnings by Source analysis on a US GAAP basis as well.
