(1) Change of Solvency Ratios and the Reasons therefor
--- ---

As at June 30, 2023, the core solvency ratio and comprehensive solvency ratio of the Company were 140.43% and 204.23%, respectively, representing the decrease of 7.10 percentage points and 5.96 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 RMB24,974 million from the end of the previous quarter, as a result of which the comprehensive solvency ratio decreased by 4.96 percentage points. In particular, admitted assets rose by RMB166,042 million from the end of the previous quarter, which was primarily due to an increase of RMB135,917 million in investment assets and an increase of RMB34,259 million in cash and liquidity management tools; and admitted liabilities rose by RMB191,016 million from the end of the previous quarter, which was mainly attributable to an increase of RMB86,011 million in reserve liabilities and an increase of RMB70,689 million in financial liabilities. Secondly, the minimum capital rose by RMB2,456 million from the end of the previous quarter, as a result of which the comprehensive solvency ratio decreased by 1.00 percentage point. In particular, the minimum capital for insurance risk grew by RMB1,586 million, the minimum capital for market risk rose by RMB730 million, and the minimum capital for credit risk increased by RMB1,624 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 second 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 net cash flow of the second quarter amounted to RMB23,062 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 first quarter of 2023 was AAA Category, which maintained at A Category for 20 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, both internal and external economic and financial environments remain complicated and volatile with increasing uncertainties and unpredictable factors. 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 management involving insurance assets continue to be under pressure. 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 lead to an increase in the number of complaints in the industry with negative public opinions rising as a whole, and also bring greater challenges to the reputational risk management of the Company.
