(i) it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to<br />

settle the obligation; or<br />

(ii) the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.<br />

These are neither related to insurance, nor financing nor lease; they are, for example, related to legal<br />

expenses (with an expected probability of less than 50%).<br />

2.3 QMC210: Off-balance sheet items<br />

Purpose of form: This form presents an overall view of the off-balance sheet items, which could impact the<br />

financial position of the syndicate, if realised.<br />

This form is required for all reporting years combined and will be required on an annual basis.<br />

The contingent liabilities included in this form is the amount that was not included in the contingent liabilities<br />

amount in the balance sheet because of being immaterial. If possible, they should be valued at their<br />

maximum possible value, regardless of their probability (i.e. future cash flows required to settle the<br />

contingent liability over the lifetime of that contingent liability, discounted at the relevant risk-free rate term<br />

structure).<br />

Details relating to Funds at Lloyds’ (FAL) should not be reported on this form.<br />

2.4 QMC220/QMC221: Own Funds (Annual/Quarterly)<br />

Purpose of form: This form provides a detailed overview of the syndicate’s own funds.<br />

These forms will be required for all reporting years combined and QMC220 will be required on an annual<br />

basis, while QMC221 will be required on a quarterly basis.<br />

Syndicate should report funds in syndicates (FIS) in this form but Funds at Lloyd’s (FAL) should be excluded.<br />

Line 1 – Initial funds, members’ contributions (Funds in syndicate – FIS): This is the amount of capital<br />

contributed by and held by syndicates. Only FIS should be reported on this line.<br />

Line 2 – Surplus funds: This is the total of surplus funds that fall under Article 91 (2) of the <strong>Solvency</strong> <strong>II</strong><br />

Framework Directive (Directive 2009/138/EC). Surplus funds are accumulated profits which have not been<br />

made available for distribution to policy holders and beneficiaries. This will not be applicable to syndicates.<br />

Line 3 – Reconciliation reserve: The reconciliation reserve represents reserves (e.g. retained earnings), net<br />

of adjustments (e.g. for ring fenced funds). It also reconciles differences between the accounting valuation<br />

and <strong>Solvency</strong> <strong>II</strong> valuation. In the case of syndicates, the value on this line will equal members’ balances, less<br />

foreseeable distributions and FIS (if applicable).<br />

Line 7 – Foreseeable distributions: This is the amount of distribution that has been approved by the<br />

managing agent’s Board but has not been made by the reporting date. In addition, any distributions that are<br />

anticipated to be made in the following year on members’ balances as at the end of reporting year should<br />

also be deducted from own funds being reported.<br />

Line 10 & 11 – Expected profits included in future premium (EPIFP) – Life/non-life: These are the expected<br />

profits included in future premiums and that are recognised in technical provisions.<br />

2.5 QMC240/241: Non-life Technical Provisions (Annual/Quarterly)<br />

Purpose of form: This form reports an overview of the non-life technical provisions by <strong>Solvency</strong> <strong>II</strong> line of<br />

business and split into main components; best estimate (gross and net), reinsurance recoverable,<br />
