財務再保險在再保險市場中是一個新的名詞，國內保險業都不甚瞭解；但在國外，財務再保險的市場卻有增加的趨勢。本文以研究「人壽保險公司」為對象，首先對「財務再保險」加以定義，並介紹其種類、功能等。接著探討財務再保險與其它金融商品的比較；同時，我們將以本國人壽保險公司為樣本，分析其財務報表，找出較需要資本的公司來做模擬，探討其實施財務再保險後財務報表變化的情形。最後，總結全文，提出結論，並對本文所得結果做出一些建議，以作為我國實施財務再保險之參考。 第一章 緒論 1 第一節 研究動機與目的 1 第二節 研究限制與研究架構 2 第二章 財務再保險之介紹 5 第一節 發展背景 5 第二節 財務再保險的意義 9 第三節 財務再保險的種類 11 第四節 財務再保險的功能 25 第五節 相關問題探討 31 第三章 財務再保險與其它金融工具之比較 38 第一節 與傳統再保險之比較 38 第二節 與其它融資策略之比較 41 第三節 與衍生性金融商品之比較 50 第四章 財務再保險模擬在我國壽險公司之結果 55 第一節 壽險資本適足性之理論基礎 55 第二節 財務再保險之假設 60 第三節 模擬財務再保險之結果 62 第四節 小結 65 第五章 結論與建議 69 第一節 結論 69 第二節 建議 71 第三節 後續研究的建議 72 附 錄(一) YRT財務再保險與傳統再保險之比較 75 附 錄(二) 共同保險與修正制共同保險財務再保後之結果 78 附 錄(三) 發行公司債之作業流程 88 附 錄(四) 公開發行與申請上市 91 附 錄(五) 依保險法規定應增加資本額度試算表 93 附 錄(六) 台灣壽險業風險基礎資本比試算表 95 附 錄(七) 財務再保險可釋放之盈餘 96 附 錄(八) 依我國監理制度財務再保險後之變化表 98 附 錄(九) 依美國RBC監理制度財務再保險後之變化表 99 附 錄(十) 財務再保險合約範例 102 參考文獻 115 / Financial reinsurance is an innovative alternative to so-called traditional forms of reinsurance, and its recent popularity has led to a significant rise in premiums devoted to this category. It is a practical risk management tool, especially useful when the motivations of the reinsured insurance company are centered not only on cost effectively managing underwriting risk but also on explicitly recognizing and addressing other financially oriented risks such as credit, investment and timing risks. We would like to perform a study on the innovative alternative and to try to apply it to life insurance company in Taiwan. Reinsurance is a versatile tool for financial planning. Financial reinsurance is an innovative one in the categories of reinsurance. Unlike the traditional form of reinsurance, financial reinsurance is structured to provide the desired financial objective while the risk transfer element is very carefully controlled. The transaction is not to make a loan from a reinsurer, but it provides a useful tool to improve the ceding company's current statutory earnings and surplus position. Recently, some of new domestic life insurers are facing surplus strains. Most of them have to raise capitals over billions of NT dollars to meet the required regulations setup by MOF. Instead of raising capital, financial reinsurance is demonstrated later in this paper to accomplish the "surplus relief" objective. In this hypothetical example, we conclude that the other things being equal, the more policy reserves a company bears, the greater performance a financial reinsurance achieves. The insurance industry has limited capital and must use it efficiently in order to provide adequately for the insurance needs of the public. Financial reinsurance is maturing in the developed countries. We believe that the accounting treatment prescribed by the authorities is reasonably developed and consistently applied, the attractiveness of financial reinsurance products is in sight.
