Enterprise Risk Management
ERM (Enterprise Risk Management) plays an integral role in how EIM manages our business. As such, the ERM Committee, reporting to the Board of Directors, has defined the Company's risk tolerance policy as follows.
Corporate Risk Tolerance
We have set our corporate risk tolerance at being able to withstand a modeled 1/200 VaR annual aggregate occurrence and maintain an "A" rating by AM Best on an entity wide level. The related categories include reserve, underwriting, operational, investment, catastrophe and reinsurer credit risk. Risk capacity is the percentage at or above this level and is used to measure how effectively the Company is managing risk on a quarterly basis.
