This is to inform you of changes to the NJAIRE Procedure Manual that were approved by the Department of Banking and Insurance, and are effective on January 1, 2008.  The important changes are summarized below:

 

1.      In the Quarterly Reports portion of Chapter 3, the following revisions were incorporated:

 

a.       Include distinction between the reporting of standard territories for accident years 2007 and prior and the reporting of statewide totals for accident years 2008 and subsequent.

b.      Companies have various options of reporting their statewide totals for accident years 2008 and subsequent and can refer to the new Exhibit 17a in the Procedure Manual Exhibits.

c.       In all reports for accident years 2008 and subsequent, the statewide totals will appear as Territory 001, which will be defined as entire state.

 

2.      In the Quarterly Provisional Transactions portion of Chapter 5, the following sections were amended:

 

a.       Explanation of how the quarterly provisional assessments are calculated.

b.      Explanation on how assessments are calculated under the "Pure Exposure" Method.
