This information serves as an important indicator of Canadian economic performance, is used by all levels of government in establishing informed policies in the energy area and, in the case of public utilities, is used by governmental agencies to fulfil their regulatory responsibilities. The private sector likewise uses this information in the corporate decision-making process.

Confidentiality

Your answers are confidential.

Statistics Canada is prohibited by law from releasing any information it collects which could identify any person,  business or organization unless consent has been given by the respondent or as permitted by the Statistics Act.  The confidentiality provisions of the Statistics Act are not affected by either the Access to Information Act or any other legislation. Therefore, for example, the Canada Revenue Agency cannot access identifiable survey records from Statistics Canada.

Data Sharing Agreements

To reduce response burden, Statistics Canada has entered into data sharing agreements with provincial and territorial statistical agencies and other government organizations which must keep the data confidential and use them only for statistical purposes. Statistics Canada will only share data from this survey with those organizations that have demonstrated a requirement to use the data.

Section 11 of the Statistics Act provides for the sharing of information with provincial and territorial statistical agencies that meet certain conditions. These agencies must have the legislative authority to collect the same information, on their own mandatory basis, and the legislation must provide substantially the same provisions for the confidentiality and penalties for disclosure of confidential information as the Statistics Act. Because these agencies have the legal authority to compel businesses to provide the same information, consent is not requested and businesses may not object to the sharing of the data.

For this survey, there are Section 11 agreements with the provincial and territorial statistical agencies of Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Québec, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia and the Yukon.

The shared data will be limited to information pertaining to business establishments located within the jurisdiction of the respective province or territory.

Section 12 of the Statistics Act provides for the sharing of information with the federal, provincial or territorial government organizations. Under Section 12, you may refuse to share your information with any of these organizations by writing a letter of objection to the Chief Statistician and returning it with the completed questionnaire. Please specify the organizations with which you do not want to share your data.

For this survey, there are Section 12 agreements with the statistical agencies of Prince Edward Island, the Northwest Territories and Nunavut and with the Ontario Ministry of Energy, Manitoba Innovation, Energy and Mines, Saskatchewan Ministry of Energy and Resources, Alberta Energy Department, the Alberta Energy Resources Conservation Board, British Columbia Ministry of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources, National Energy Board, Natural Resources Canada and Environment Canada.

For agreements with provincial and territorial government organizations, the shared data will be limited to information pertaining to business establishments located within the jurisdiction of the respective province or territory.

Note that there is no right of refusal with respect to sharing the data with the Saskatchewan Ministry of Energy and Resources and Alberta Energy Resources Conservation Board. In addition to being collected under the Statistics Act, the information is collected pursuant to The Oil and Gas Conservation Act and Regulations, 1985 (Saskatchewan) and The Mineral Resources Act (Saskatchewan) on behalf of Saskatchewan Ministry of Energy and Resources, and section 65 of the Alberta Coal Conservation Regulation and sections 12.050 - 12.053 of the Alberta Gas and Oil Conservation Regulation, on behalf of the Alberta Energy Resources Conservation Board.

Service transactions to include or to exclude depending of the entities involved

Please include commercial service transactions conducted between the Canadian reporting entity (surveyed by this questionnaire) and all foreign parties, related or not.

Do not include transactions conducted between one of your foreign related parties and another foreign entity.  For example, if your foreign affiliated entity purchases a service from an unrelated entity from another country, that transaction should not be included. Do not include transactions conducted between one of your foreign related parties and a Canadian unrelated party. 

Transactions between your Canadian entity and another Canadian entity owned by foreign interests are to be excluded as well. However, you should report transactions when your entity purchases (or sells) commercial services from (to) your foreign parent or from (to) a foreign affiliated or associated entity.

How to report transactions

Report all the international commercial service transactions by partner country.  Sales of commercial services are to be reported in the top half of the questionnaire under “Total Revenues Earned on services sold to non-residents” while purchases of commercial services are reported under “Total Expenses Incurred on services purchased from non-residents”.


Amounts reported should be rounded in thousands of Canadian dollars.  For example, an amount of C$ 5,234,568.00 should be reported as “5,235” on the questionnaire.   Amounts below C$ 500.00 are rounded to “0” and should, therefore, be omitted.
Allocate transactions to countries by using the country codes from the “yellow sheet” included with the questionnaire.  If a country is not included on the list, write the name of the country instead.

When actual amounts are not available, please estimate your service expenses and revenues.  Specify, in the “Comments” section that amounts are estimated.

If you are not sure if a transaction has to be reported on this survey, you could report the amount and provide a description of the transaction in the “Comments” section.

If, after reading this guide, you confirm that your enterprise has no transaction of commercial services then please report “0” at line 1 on both revenues and expenses sections, sign the form and return it to Statistics Canada.

Example:
An enterprise is providing commercial services to three foreign clients:

  1. It charges C$50,000.00 to a subsidiary unit located in the United States for commercial services.
  2. It charges C$100,000.00 to an unaffiliated unit located in the United States for commercial services.
  3. It charges C$60,000.00 to a subsidiary company located in the United Kingdom for commercial services (report these transactions as revenue earned on services sold to non-residents since it is exporting commercial services).

The country code “USA” is entered on line 1 under the country code column and the country code “GBR” is entered on line 2 under the country code column.

The transactions with the two clients located in United States are summed and “150” is reported on line 1.

The revenues (“60”) from the client located in United Kingdom are entered on line 2.

Reporting Guide for Balance of Payments Questionnaire BP-27

Balance of Payments Division

Canadian Life Insurance Companies

Transactions between Canadian incorporated insurance companies and their foreign affiliates, agencies and bank accounts and other companies or persons outside Canada

Purpose:

The data are required to prepare statements on Canada's Balance of International Payments and Investment Position.

The Balance of International Payments records transactions (flows) between Canada and the rest of the world. The International Investment Position reports on the various types of international claims and liabilities of Canadian residents. In respect of Canadian life insurance companies, the main international flows arise from transactions with foreign subsidiaries/ affiliates/branches and with other foreign companies, and from reinsurance transactions with non-residents.

This return is sent to individual insurance companies in Canada. If the company is a member of a group in Canada, companies may elect to file a single return for the entire Canadian insurance group. In such a case, a specific notation to this effect should be made on the first page of the return. It is important to exclude the insurance operations conducted through your company's foreign branches. However, transactions between  your company's Canadian operations and its foreign branches should be reported.

Information is for the year ended December 31. The data are to be reported on the basis of  foreign country and affiliation.

There are three principal parts to the return as follows:

Part 1:  Reinsurance Business

(A) Reinsurance ceded to unregistered non-resident insurers - Canadian Business

(B) Reinsurance ceded to unregistered non-resident insurers - Out of Canada Business

(C) Reinsurance assumed from unregistered non-resident insurers - Out of Canada Business

Part 2: Direct business transacted with non-residents - Out of Canada Business

Part 3: Other international transactions

Part 1 - Reinsurance Business

Canadian life companies are asked to report transactions with non-residents in respect of their reinsurance business with unregistered foreign companies. An unregistered foreign company is an insurance company, or reinsurance company, incorporated or registered outside of Canada but not registered to transact business in Canada.

Reinsurance transacted with foreign insurers registered in Canada (i.e. Canadian branches of foreign insurance companies) is considered to be between residents and is not to be reported on this return.

Include business transacted from Canada with your foreign branches/subsidiaries or with your foreign parents/affiliates. Companies that only operate through foreign branches/subsidiaries are not required to complete this part.

In column (01) report premiums as premiums written. With the exception of settlement annuities, all annuity and insurance (life and accident & sickness) premiums and related accounts are to be included. Settlement annuities are to be included in Part 3, Other International Transactions, "Other revenue and expenses...". Commissions should include any allowances for expenses and premium taxes.

Asset and liability accounts such as unearned premiums, actuarial liabilities, outstanding claims, other receivables and payables should be as at January 1 and December 31 of the survey year. Actuarial liabilities of assuming insurers as reported in columns 6 and 7 should include amounts for life insurance, annuity, and accident and sickness businesses.

Out of Canada insurance ceded in Part 1(B) would consist of two types: the retroceded portion of the Out of Canada Business assumed from non-residents (as reported in Part 1(C)); and part of the direct business transacted with non-residents as reported in Part 2. Again importantly, it would exclude any insurance business transacted through any of your foreign branches.

Part 2 - Direct Business Transacted with Non-Residents - Out of Canada Business

Canadian incorporated companies that transact out of Canada business directly with non-residents from the Canadian Head Office, or a Canadian branch or office located in Canada are required to complete Part 2. Exclude direct business written by your foreign branches.

In column (01) report premiums as premiums written. With the exception of settlement annuities, all annuity and insurance (life and accident & sickness) premiums and related accounts are to be included. Settlement annuities are to be included in Part 3, Other International Transactions, "Other revenue and expenses...". Commissions should include any allowances for expenses and premium taxes.

Asset and liability accounts such as unearned premiums, actuarial liabilities, outstanding claims, other receivables and payables should be as at January 1 and December 31 of the survey year.

Reporting Guide Balance of Payments Questionnaire BP-27

Part 3 - Other International Transactions

  • Capital transactions with either foreign subsidiaries and branches or with foreign parents/affiliates, which are covered in columns 1 to 4 respectively in Part 3, are intended to include the following  transactions:
  • capital contributions/withdrawals evidenced by the issuance or redemption of stock, bonds, other claims or transfers;
  • amounts related to the acquisition or disposal of interests abroad;
  • loans or advances including changes in intercompany balances;
  • dividends but not interest on debt instruments; interest should be reported  in this exhibit under "Other revenue and expenses...";
  • the reinvestment of dividends or of interest.

Investment in securities for all your company's activities (ie. including segregated funds) should be reported in columns 5 and 6 if the transactions are conducted directly through foreign based investment dealers. Do not report security transactions conducted through Canadian based investment dealers as they are surveyed separately. The amounts should be reported on a gross basis. Thus, both the purchases and the sales or redemptions should be reported.

Investment in securities on behalf of foreign subsidiaries/branches carried out through Canadian based investment dealers should be reported in columns 7 and 8.

Other revenue and expenses should be reported on an accrued basis and coded according to type as specified in the box at the bottom of the form. Include home office services done by your company for foreign subsidiaries/branches, or on your company's behalf by a foreign parent. Other revenue and expenses reported in this section should not include any premiums, claims or commissions, or expense allowances directly related to premiums on insurance, reinsurance or annuity businesses, as this information is captured in Parts 1 and 2. Settlement annuities however should be reported under "Other revenue and expenses..." in Part 3.

Getting started

New to microsimulation?

What is dynamic social science microsimulation?

This discussion introduces microsimulation in the social sciences by defining its underlying concepts, its historical development, its strengths and limitations, and the situations in which microsimulation is a highly appropriate simulation approach.

Microsimulation approaches

This discussion classifies microsimulation approaches, concentrating on why, what and how societies are simulated on a computer. It includes a section of explanation versus prediction as the purpose of microsimulation, and it distinguishes between cohort versus population models, cross-sectional versus synthetic starting population models, continuous versus discrete time models, and interacting or non-interacting population models.

New to Modgen?

Introduction to Modgen

This discussion introduces Modgen in general, including its underlying components (precompiler, library, automated server), the fundamental elements of a model (actors, states, events, other functions), and the key entities for input (parameters) and output (tables). Bilingualism issues and the process flow when a model is run are also part of the information that is provided.

General characteristics of Modgen applications - Exploring the model RiskPaths

This discussion outlines the foundations of a relatively straightforward teaching model, RiskPaths, used to examine childlessness. It then elaborates how microsimulation is an appropriate study approach and introduces how the visual interface that comes with Modgen helps to explore the various aspects of this model.

Modgen and the application RiskPaths from the model developers view

This discussion focuses on the basics of starting to build the teaching model, RiskPaths, using Modgen in the Visual Studio development environment. It proposes separate modules that correspond to different behaviours or roles within the model and discusses the potential contents of each module, including code samples.

Modgen (Model generator)

Modgen (Model generator) is a generic microsimulation programming language supporting the creation, maintenance and documentation of dynamic microsimulation models. Several types of models can be accommodated, be they continuous or discrete time, with interacting or non-interacting populations.

Furthermore, a model developer does not need to have advanced programming skills as a prerequisite to use Modgen. This is possible because Modgen hides underlying mechanisms like event queueing, and creates a stand-alone model executable program with a complete visual interface and detailed model documentation. Model developers can therefore concentrate on model specific code: the declaration of parameters, simulated actors, and events.

High efficiency coding also extends to a model's output. The programming of an output table only requires a couple of lines. Tabulation is done in continuous time and includes a mechanism for estimating the Monte Carlo variation for any cell of any table.

Getting started

Provides links to introductory material intended for both those who are new to microsimulation itself and those who are familiar with microsimulation but new to Modgen

Downloads

Contains the essential software that needs to be downloaded to use Modgen--Modgen itself (to develop models) and Modgen Prerequisites (to run models). The BioBrowser application (for visualizing individual life courses) is also available here, as are two sample models, one with interacting populations and one with non-interacting populations.

Training

Information on upcoming Modgen courses, as well as presentation material from several technical Modgen workshops delivered in 2008 (such as workshops related to building a model, distributing a model, documenting a model, etc.)

Tuition and living accommodation costs for full-time students at Canadian degree granting institutions (TLAC)
For the academic year 2011-2012

Centre for Education Statistics
April 2011

Completed questionnaire must be returned by June 17, 2011

If you require further information or assistance in completing this questionnaire, please do not hesitate to contact Nicole Paquin at (613) 951- 4311 (Nicole.Paquin@statcan.gc.ca). You can also contact Bernard Bourgoin at (613) 951-1506 (Bernard.Bourgoin@statcan.gc.ca).

I. Introduction

A. Description

The Tuition and Living Accommodation Costs for Full-time Students at Canadian Degree-granting Institutions Survey was developed to provide student financial information (tuition fees and living accommodation costs) on all universities and degree-granting colleges in Canada.

This information:

  • gives stakeholders, the public and students an annual guide to tuition costs as well as providing information on trends in tuition fees;
  • contributes to a better understanding of the student financial position for that level of education;
  • helps in the development of policies in this sector;
  • is used to calculate the Consumer Price Index;
  • facilitates interprovincial comparisons;
  • facilitates comparisons across institutions.

B. Reference period

The actual cycle of this survey is for the 2011-2012 academic year.

C. Population

The target population is all public degree-granting institutions (universities and colleges) in Canada.

Please note that the survey is targeting institutions that have degree granting status for the school year 2011-2012. Institutions that do not have degree granting status should be excluded, even if they provide portions of programs that lead to a degree granted by another institution. The survey is being limited to institutions whose operations are primarily funded by provincial governments. Institutions without any grants from the Education department (and those who receive Grants from the Health department only) are not included.

Note: For universities participating for the first time and for colleges and university-colleges offering degrees, please fill in the questionnaire for degree programs only (not for other certificate or diploma programs offered).

D. Field of study

The fields of study classification for both graduate and undergraduate programs are adapted from the Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) 2000, Statistics Canada's standard for field of study classification. The CIP's structure comprises several groupings developed jointly by Statistics Canada and the National Center for Education Statistics in the USA. It is based on work undertaken as part of the creation of the North American Product Classification System (NAPCS) by Canada, the United States and Mexico.

The adapted groupings are

For undergraduate programs:

  • Education
  • Visual and Performing Arts, and Communications Technologies
  • Humanities
  • Social and Behavioural Sciences
  • Law
  • Business, Management and Public Administration
  • Physical and Life Sciences and Technologies
  • Mathematics, Computer and Information Sciences
  • Engineering
  • Architecture and Related Technologies
  • Agriculture, Natural Resources and Conservation
  • Dentistry
  • Medicine
  • Nursing
  • Pharmacy
  • Veterinary medicine
  • Health (other than Medicine), Parks, Recreation and Fitness
  • Personal, Protective and Transportation Services
  • Other

For graduate programs:

  • All the undergraduate program groupings plus;
  • Executive MBA
  • Regular MBA

In order to report discipline fees in the right program, please refer to Appendix A: CIP groupings list for TLAC.

Most of the categories are straightforward, however please note those listed below as they have caused confusion in the past.

Tuition fees for

  • 31.0505 Kinesiology must be reported under Other Health, Parks, Recreation and Fitness program
  • 31.0501 Health and Physical Education must be reported under Other Health, Parks, Recreation and Fitness program
  • 03.0103 Environmental Studies must be reported under Agriculture, Natural Resources and Conservation program.
  • 03.0104 Environmental Sciences must be reported under Agriculture, Natural Resources and Conservation program.

Note: Dental, Medical and Veterinary Residency Programs offered in teaching hospitals and similar locations that may lead to advanced professional certification are excluded.

More information on the classification structure

E. Submission Date

The completed questionnaire must be returned by June 17, 2011 by uploading the file back in the Secure Internet Site (E-File transfer Service). For the Authorization to release data form, (page 7 of the document) please print it, sign it and return by fax at (613) 951-0709 or 1-800-755-5514.

If you require further information or assistance in completing this questionnaire, please do not hesitate to contact Nicole Paquin at (613) 951- 4311 (Nicole.Paquin@statcan.gc.ca). You can also contact Bernard Bourgoin at (613) 951-1506 (Bernard.Bourgoin@statcan.gc.ca).

II. Instructions

General

Whenever possible, final fees and living accommodation costs should be reported. If they have not yet been determined, your best estimate should be reported and the box showing that these are estimated fees for 2011-2012 should be checked.

Note: For reporting fees with decimals, please use a dot only (not a comma).
(For example $2415.45)

Although tuition fees and living accommodation costs can be reported on any basis, tables produced by Statistics Canada will reflect an academic year of two semesters, eight months or 30 credits in order to create a basis for comparison.

In situations where the institutions are not reporting tuition on an academic year basis, the following adjustments will be made to the data.

In order to report them on an academic year basis:

  • Semester (Figures will be multiplied by two for two semesters/ year)
  • Per credit (We will assume 30 credits/year and multiply X 30)

Previous year data for 2010-2011 of each part has been pre-filled.  Please take time to verify this data and make any required changes.

Part A: Tuition fees for full-time students

When reporting “Tuition fees per full-time students” in part A, only the cost of tuition should be reported. Do not include additional fees for materials or equipment. If such program specific fees exist, please make a note in the area provided for comments.

The “Canadian Students” category in Part A includes Canadian citizens, permanent residents and all other students paying the regular fees. If fees are different for foreign students, please indicate in the comments section the rules determining how a student is classified as foreign.

For Quebec and Nova-Scotia, the Lower fees are for students with their permanent address in the province and the Upper fees represent those for students having an out-of-province permanent address.

Part B: Additional Compulsory fees for full-time Canadian Students

In part B, please report compulsory fees for full-time students in the first row of the table. Fees that differ according to field of study should be reported in the specific program rows below. If there are fees which apply only to foreign students, please make a note in the area provided for comments. Such comments will be footnoted in the data tables produced.

Important note: “Partial” compulsory fees such as Health Plan and Dental Plan fees that can be opted out by a student if proof of comparable coverage is presented should not be included in the compulsory fees but only indicated in the comments section.

Part C: Living accommodation costs at residences/housing

In part C, if it is not possible to separate the room and the meal plan costs for single students, only a total should be shown.

III. Definitions

Tuition Fees

Tuition that is charged to a full-time student (with a full load of 30 credits per year).

Compulsory fees

Fees that cover a range of services that varies from university to university, year to year, and even faculty to faculty or school to school within the same university. They include general fees (admission, registration, examination,, internship, etc.), technology fees, student services fees, student association fees, contributions to student activities, copyright fees, premiums for compulsory insurance plans, fees for athletics and recreational activities, and various other fees (transcript, degree, laboratory, uniform, etc.).

These fees are those that all students within each applicable program category must pay. An example of fees that do not apply to everybody are Laboratory Fees that are charged for classes with labs and is for the cost of laboratory materials and supplies used by a student.

Excluded are ‘partial’ compulsory fees such as Health Plan and Dental Plan fees that can be opted out by a student if proof of comparable coverage is presented.

Athletics fees   

Mandatory fees to support intercollegiate athletics covering athletics facilities, and campus recreation (intramurals, fitness and recreation courses, etc.)

Health Services fees

Mandatory fees to support the on-campus clinic facilities which provide the services of doctors and nurses.

Reminder:  “Partial” compulsory fees such as Health Plan and Dental Plan fees that can be opted out by a student if proof of comparable coverage is presented should not be included in the compulsory fees but only indicated in the comments section.  

Student Association fees

Mandatory fees supporting the general operating expenses of the association.

IV. Suggestions for improvements

Statistics Canada would welcome any suggestions for changes in the survey which you may wish to propose.

Canadian Branches of Foreign Life Insurance Companies and Canadian Branches of Foreign Property and Casualty Insurance Companies

Balance of Payments Division

Canadian Branches of Foreign Life Insurance Companies

Transactions between Canadian branches of foreign insurance companies in Canada and head or other offices, companies or persons outside Canada

Purpose:

The data are required to prepare statements on Canada's Balance of International Payments and Investment Position.

The Balance of International Payments records transactions (flows) between Canada and the rest of the world. The International Investment Position reports on the various types of international claims and liabilities of Canadian residents. The main international flows of Canadian branches of foreign life insurance companies arise from reinsurance transactions with non-residents and transactions with their foreign head offices.

This return is sent to individual insurance branches in Canada. If the branch is a member of a group in Canada, branches may elect to file a single return for the entire Canadian insurance group. In such a case, a specific notation to this effect should be made on the first page of the return.

The balance sheet of the Canadian branch should be completed on the same accounting basis as that required by the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions Canada (OSFI). Information is for the year ended
December 31 as reported to OSFI.

There are three principal parts to the return as follows:

Part 1:  Reinsurance Business

  • (A) Reinsurance ceded to unregistered non-resident insurers
  • (B) Reinsurance assumed from unregistered non-resident insurers - Out of Canada Business

Part 2: Direct business transacted with non-residents - Out of Canada Business

Part 3: Other international transactions

Part 1 - Reinsurance Business

Part 1(A):  Reinsurance ceded to unregistered non-resident insurers

Canadian branches of foreign life companies are asked to report transactions with non-residents in respect of their reinsurance business with unregistered foreign companies. An unregistered foreign company is an insurance company, or reinsurance company, incorporated or registered outside of Canada but not registered to transact business in Canada. Reinsurance ceded to other foreign insurers registered in Canada (ie. Canadian branches of foreign insurance companies) is considered to be between residents and is not to be reported on this return.

The information included in this exhibit is similar, but not identical, to the information requested by the federal
insurance regulator (OSFI-55) in respect of reinsurance ceded to unregistered companies. The principal differences are:

  1. This exhibit does not include balances in respect of unregistered Canadian incorporated companies.
  2. A column for commissions earned has been added.
  3. This exhibit is to be completed on the basis of foreign country rather than on company.
  4. No distinction is required in this exhibit as to reinsurance transactions with "approved" or"not approved" unregistered foreign companies.

The amounts for premiums, commissions and claims should be for the 12 months ended December 31 as reported to OSFI. With the exception of settlement annuities, all annuity and insurance (life, accident and sickness)
premiums and related accounts are to be included in Part 1(A). Settlement annuities are to be included in Part 3, Other International Transactions, "Other revenue and expenses...".

Asset and liability accounts such as unearned premiums, actuarial liabilities, outstanding claims, other receivables and payables should be as at January 1 and December 31 of the survey year.

Commissions should include any allowances for expenses and premium taxes. Actuarial liabilities of assuming insurers as reported in columns 6 and 7 should include amounts for life insurance, annuity, and accident and sickness businesses.

Part 1(B):  Reinsurance assumed from unregistered  non-resident insurers - Out of Canada Business

Canadian branches that assume out of Canada reinsurance business are required to complete this exhibit. Include business transacted with foreign head offices or with foreign affiliates. If any out of Canada business assumed is in turn ceded to unregistered foreign insurers, the insurance ceded should be included in Part 1(A).

Reinsurance assumed requested in this exhibit can be cross-referenced for premiums written and policyholder benefits paid and incurred, with the information requested by the federal insurance regulator (OSFI-55).

The amounts for premiums, commissions and claims should be for the 12 months ended December 31 as reported to OSFI. In column (01) report premiums as premiums written. With the exception of settlement annuities, all annuity and insurance premiums and related accounts are to be included in Part 1(B). Settlement annuities are to be included in Part 3, Other International Transactions, "Other revenue and expenses...".

Asset and liability accounts such as unearned premiums, actuarial liabilities, outstanding claims, other receivables and payables should be as at January 1 and December 31 of the survey year.

Commissions should include any allowances for expenses and premium taxes. Actuarial liabilities of assuming insurers as reported in  columns 6 and 7 should include amounts for life insurance, annuity, and accident and sickness businesses.

Part 2 - Direct business transacted with non-residents - Out of Canada Business

Canadian branches that transact out of Canada business directly with non-residents are required to complete Part 2.

Direct business requested in this exhibit can be cross-referenced for premiums written and policyholder benefits paid and incurred, with the information requested by the federal insurance regulator (OSFI-55).

The amounts for premiums, commissions and claims should be for the 12 months ended December 31. In column
(01) report premiums as premiums written. With the exception of settlement annuities, all annuity and insurance premiums and related accounts are to be included in Part 2. Settlement annuities are to be included in Part 3, Other International Transactions, "Other revenue and expenses...".

Asset and liability accounts such as unearned premiums, actuarial liabilities, outstanding claims, other receivables and payables should be as at January 1 and December 31 of the survey year.

Commissions should include any allowances for expenses and premium taxes.

Part 3 - Other International Transactions

Investment in securities for all your branch's activities (ie. including segregated funds) should be reported in columns 1 and 2 if the transactions are conducted directly through foreign based investment dealers.  Do not report security transactions conducted through Canadian based investment dealers as they are surveyed separately. The amounts should be reported on a gross basis. Thus, both the purchases and the sales or redemptions should be reported. Mortgages should be included with securities.

Other revenue and expenses should be reported on an accrued basis and coded according to type as specified in the box at the bottom of the exhibit. Include home office services done on your branch's behalf by a foreign head office. Other revenue and expenses reported in this section should not include any premiums, claims or commissions, or expense allowances directly related to premiums on insurance, reinsurance or annuity businesses, as this information is captured in Parts 1 and 2. Settlement annuities however should be reported under "Other revenue and expenses..." in Part 3.

Part 1 - Reinsurance Business

Part 1(A):  Reinsurance ceded to unregistered non-resident insurers

Canadian branches of foreign property and casualty companies are asked to report transactions with non-residents in respect of their reinsurance business with unregistered foreign companies. An unregistered foreign company is an insurance company, or reinsurance company, incorporated or registered outside Canada but not registered to transact business in Canada. Reinsurance ceded to other foreign insurers registered in Canada ((i.e. Canadian branches of foreign insurance companies) is considered to be between residents and is not to be reported on this return.

The information included in this exhibit is similar, but not identical, to the information requested by the federal insurance regulator (P&C-2) in respect of reinsurance ceded to unregistered companies. The principal differences are:

  1. This exhibit does not include balances in respect of unregistered Canadian incorporated companies.
  2. A column for commissions earned has been added.
  3. This exhibit is to be completed on the basis of foreign country rather than on company.

Part 1(B):  Reinsurance assumed from unregistered non-resident insurers

Canadian branches that assume out of Canada reinsurance business are required to complete this exhibit. Include business transacted with foreign head offices or with foreign affiliates. If any out of Canada business assumed is in turn ceded to unregistered foreign insurers, the insurance ceded should be included in Part 1(A).

The amounts for premiums, commissions and claims should be for the 12 months ended December 31 as reported to OSFI. Asset and liability accounts such as unearned premiums, outstanding claims, other receivables and payables should be as at January 1 and December 31 of the survey year.

Commissions should include any allowances for expenses and premium taxes.

Part 2 - Direct business transacted with non-residents - Out of Canada Business
