According to the “Letter of Opinions from the Solvency Supervision Department of the CBIRC Regarding the 2022 SARMRA On- site Assessment of China Life Insurance Company Limited” (Yin Bao Jian Chang Fu [2023] No. 14), the Company got a score of 84.83 in the 2022 assessment and the respective scores in nine areas are as follows:17.05 in the foundation and environment of risk management, 8.01 in the objectives and tools of risk management, 8.5 in insurance risk management, 8.33 in market risk management, 8.5 in credit risk management, 8.38 in operational risk management, 8.74 in strategic risk management, 8.6 in reputational risk management, and 8.72 in liquidity risk management.

The internal rules and regulations were further defined with the management measures being deeply refined.

Secondly, the Company focused on enhancing its capability of risk management in key areas. It further promoted the application of a risk monitoring and pre-warning system down to the low level and stepped up efforts on risk analysis, monitoring and pre-warning, as well as tracking and assessment in major areas of concern. In the meantime, the Company kept on reinforcing its action on research, analysis, screening and governance with respect to, among others, sales risk, investment risk and money laundering risk, so as to reveal, manage and control relevant risks in a timely manner. On the other hand, the Company focused on the requirements of integrated risk rating under the C-ROSS (Phase II) Regulation, and further enhanced its capability of risk prevention and control in major areas of concern by comprehensively analyzing and progressively resolving any constraints on its integrated risk rating indicators.

Thirdly, the Company optimized its risk management system on an ongoing basis to make it more systematic, automated and intelligent. It consistently promoted the construction of a digital platform for risk management, redeveloped and upgraded relevant modules of its risk management platform to introduce some new functions, and built up a system for tracking risk data, thereby achieving the goal of cloud storage that has a huge capacity for storing supporting documents, and providing support to the “early identification, early warning, early discovery, and early disposal” of risks. The phased achievements were made in the construction of an investment risk management system, with the functions in connection with the analysis of investment assets in terms of both income and risk being rolled out.

--- ---

As at September 30, 2023, the core solvency ratio and comprehensive solvency ratio of the Company were 161.25% and 232.68%, respectively, representing the increase of 20.82 percentage points and 28.45 percentage points as compared to those as at the end of the previous quarter. The main reason for the change is divided into two aspects: firstly, actual capital decreased by RMB9,065 million from the end of the previous quarter, as a result of which the comprehensive solvency ratio decreased by 1.80 percentage points. In particular, admitted assets rose by RMB111,541 million from the end of the previous quarter, which was primarily due to an increase of RMB163,397 million in investment assets and a decrease of RMB69,826 million in cash and liquidity management tools; and admitted liabilities rose by RMB120,606 million from the end of the previous quarter, which was mainly attributable to an increase of RMB93,606 million in reserve liabilities and an increase of RMB50,017 million in financial liabilities. Secondly, the minimum capital decreased by RMB65,687 million from the end of the previous quarter, as a result of which the comprehensive solvency ratio increased by 30.25 percentage points. In particular, the minimum capital for insurance risk grew by RMB8.00 million, the minimum capital for market risk decreased by RMB80,139 million, and the minimum capital for credit risk increased by RMB16,224 million. In general, the core solvency ratio and comprehensive solvency ratio of the Company are well above the regulatory requirements, and the Company has sufficient solvency.

(2) Change of Regulatory Indicators for Liquidity Risk and the Reasons therefor

As at the end of the third quarter of 2023, the regulatory indicators for liquidity risk of the Company were conformed to the regulatory standards. There was no significant change in the liquidity coverage ratio as compared to that of the previous quarter. Backtracking of net cash flow from operating activities has shown positive deviation, and the cumulative net cash flow as at the end of third quarter amounted to RMB23,588 million. Pursuant to the provisions of the “Solvency Regulatory Rules for Insurance Companies No. 13: Liquidity Risk” and the relevant requirements, the Company has established a well-developed liquidity risk management mechanism to monitor various regulatory indicators for liquidity risk on a quarterly basis, with a view to preventing liquidity risk in an effective manner.

(3) Analysis of the Change in the IRR Results

According to the C-ROSS Supervision Information System of the regulator, the result of the IRR of the Company in the second quarter of 2023 was AA Category, which maintained at A Category for 21 consecutive quarters and remained stable.

(4) Analysis of the Key Risks Faced by the Company

In light of the financial environment and capital market, and after taking into account the measures adopted and initiatives taken by it in respect of risks, the Company has carried out a comprehensive analysis of the key risks affecting its solvency, the specific details of which are as follows:

Currently, the world has entered a new period of turbulent change with increasing uncertainties, instabilities and unpredictable factors, and the recovery momentum of the world economy is not stable. International institutions has predicted that the global economic growth will be less than 3% this year. While the Chinese economy has resumed normal operation, there are various hidden risks in key areas of concern and the external environment is complicated and severe. Affected by multiple factors such as low market interest rates, volatilities dominated in the equity market and continual adjustments to the stock market, the market risk and credit risk of insurance assets have accumulated at a faster pace and become prominent gradually. On the other hand, as the threshold of publication by new media and we media decreases, the reputational risk incidents of the insurance industry in relation to, among others, misleading sales and corporate governance occur from time to time. Especially in the current environment, the reputational risk is further released, which is unexpected, contagious and external, and the black industry chain such as illegal policy surrender and web hyper may create malicious hype and add fuel to the fire, which will bring greater challenges to the reputational risk management of the Company.
