Note 21.C – Other Disclosures

Updated: This interpretation prescribes limited-time, optional, statutory accounting guidance, as an exception to the existing guidance detailed in SSAP No. 7 – Asset Valuation Reserve and Interest Maintenance Reserve and the Annual Statement instructions which require nonadmittance of net negative (disallowed) IMR. Paragraph 13 of the INT provides details of the disclosures required for those reporting entities that choose to admit the net negative (disallowed) IMR asset. After reaching out to the NAIC, it has been determined that the disclosures should be captured in Note 21.C – Other Disclosures for Annual 2023 reporting. To review the additional guidance from the NAIC regarding what is required in the Notes to Financials disclosures as well as the complete INT 23-01, please refer to the SAPWG Memo to the Blanks Working Group (BWG).
