New Databases

AIR has not added new databases in Touchstone Re 9.0.

New Tables

AIR has added the following database tables in Touchstone Re 9.0:

Table Description
AIRResultRe.dbo.tRRRR_LOSS_DimUSMPCIIndPremium

Stores information about the Multi Peril Crop Insurance Model for the United States.

Default industry premiums are based on government-reported premium amounts. The table also stores user-specified custom percentages that the application can apply to the default industry premiums.

Touchstone Re stores premiums for each of the three MPCI funds (BuyUp, Cat, and Revenue) and applies the premiums and custom percentages during loss analyses that include the MPCI Model for the U.S. 

AIRResultRe.dbo.tDimReCurrencyExchangeRateSetConversion

Stores information about the currency exchange rates associated with reinsurance treaties or layers during a portfolio loss analysis.

This table stores the user-provided currency option to save and export loss results.

AIRExposureRe.dbo.tReinsuranceProgramJapanCFLRatio

Stores information about the event sets and the corresponding prefecture ratios.

Touchstone Re generates this table to calculate custom first loss in 10k event catalogs. The system validates the user-provided prefecture ratios and then automatically maps the event set with a closest first loss perspective.

AIRExposureRe.dbo.tReinsuranceEPCurve

This table stores information about the exceedance probability (EP) summary losses curve for reinsurance programs.

Touchstone Re generates this table at the time of conversion of EP summary losses to ULF for further analyses in Touchstone Re. The system can run a single or multiple loss curves at a time.

AIRExposureRe.dbo.tReinsuranceEPCurveAdjustmentPoint

Stores information about the curve adjustment value generated at the time of conversion of EP to ULF files.

Touchstone Re generates this table to store the adjusted EP curve data after converting the exceedance probability loss summary to the user loss file format for the selected reinsurance program.

AIRExposureRe.dbo.tReinsuranceEPCurveSet

Stores information about the input configuration of the exceedance probability (EP) summary loss curve.

Touchstone Re generates this table to store the EP curve set information including the unique identifier for the curve, user-provided reinsurance curve name, loss applies to area, and the associated perils for each EP curve. In addition, Touchstone Re generates the following intermediate template tables in AIRWork (proprietary) database when you submit an EP to ULF conversion activity. After conversion, these template tables are no longer available in the database.

  • tNNNN_EPTOULF_GU
  • tNNNN_EPTOULF_Adjusted
  • tNNNN_EPTOULF_Adjusted_Log
AIRIndustry.dbo.TblIndustry2020 Stores encoded industry exposure data for calendar year 2020.
AIRProject.dbo.tAggregateAnalysisJapanCFLRatio

Stores information about the reinsurance program option specified at the time of an aggregate loss analysis.

AIR has updated the event sets to stay abreast with the government of Japan's decision to define areas by prefecture. AIR has enhanced the industry loss files to include events sets in the Industry Exposure Database (IED), added three new events for the historical catalog, revised policy conditions for residential and reinsurance terms, created the ability to select seismicity source for the event sets, and updated prefecture boundaries for the exposure and loss maps.

AIRReference.dbo.tReinsuranceTakeUpRatesMapping

Stores information about Take-up rates for industry loss and exposure data for a reinsurance program. 

Take-up rates are the percentage of insurable properties that are actually insured.

The loss files packaged in Touchstone include total insurable loss for each modeled event. To derive insured loss, AIR estimates the percentage of risks covered by peril, by line of business, and by geographic location, then apply this estimate to the insurable loss values. These estimates are called take-up rates.

Take-up rates can be entered manually in the Exposures screen, Market Shares tab or brought in from a UNICEDE file.

AIRReference.dbo.tReinsuranceUNICEDEAreatagCountryXref Stores information about area and country tags in the UNICEDE/2 specification for the reinsurance programs.
AIRReference.dbo.tReinsuranceLobCategoryCode Stores information about the line-of-business (LOB) and the corresponding category codes.

Modified Tables

AIR has modified the following database tables for Touchstone Re 9.0:

Table Description
AIRCompanyLoss.dbo.tCompanyLossCatalog

Stores information on whether loss is disaggregated at the area or subarea or by line-of-business (LOB) level. AIR has added a new 'AreaDetail' column to the company loss catalog to identify the disaggregation of loss.

AIRReference.dbo.tActivityType

AIR has implemented two new activity types for the exceedance probability(EP) and event loss to ULF features. When you initiate a job for converting an EP or ELT to ULF, Touchstone Re triggers the appropriate activity type code.

  • EPTOULF = EP To ULF Import
  • EVTLOSSULF = Event Loss to ULF Import
AIRReference.dbo.tActivityTypeActivityStageXref

AIR has implemented the PRE, PRO, and POST activity phases for the event-level losses to ULF and exceedance probability (EP) to ULF features.

  • EVTLOSSULF = PRE:   15
  • EVTLOSSULF = PRO:   75
  • EVTLOSSULF = POST: 10
  • EPTOULF = PRE: 15
  • ELTOULF = PRO: 75
  • EPTOULF = POST: 15
The loss is disaggregated to the area/subarea level as well as by line-of-business (LOB).                                                

AIRResultRe.dbo

AIR has implemented 'Day of Year' in loss tables, which is maintained in the AIRResultsRe database. For example, when a date is specified during a loss analysis, the loss tables stores the corresponding date in the 'DayID' column. This date is used to apply order of application of aggregate terms, and the distribution of events across each year in the catalog.

AIR has made the following changes to several loss-specific tables:                               

  • Removed the 'MultiYearIterationID' column.
  • Added the 'DayID' column.

 

AIRIndustry.dbo.tReinsuranceIndustryRate AIR has updated the premium industry rates for the pandemic peril.
AIRUsersetting.dbo.tReinsuranceIndustryRate AIR has updated additional premium rates for the pandemic peril.
AIRReference.dbo.tReinsuranceLOB AIR has added the 'LOB category code' column. This is to identify loss numbers for reinsurance programs by a specific line-of-business (LOB).

New Databases

AIR has not added new databases in Touchstone Re 8.0.

New Tables

AIR has added the following database tables in Touchstone Re 8.0:

Table Details
[tUpgradeLog]

Stores information about upgrade scripts.

Added in several databases.

[AIRCompanyLoss].[dbo].[tCLAUpgradeLog]

Stores information about database upgrades associated with the company loss association (CLA) records.

The Touchstone Re company upgrade process will now support both legacy and the latest geographies and its corresponding line of business for each company loss file (CLF). The UI update is in conjuction with Model 27 update for Carribean countries where a peril could span across multiple countries. For example, a peril could start from the Florida coastline and then traverse across various Caribbean countries.

The tCLAUpgradeLog table stores old and new area information for each CLF record. Enabling you to track the legacy and new geographies as well as the line of businesses before and after the database upgrade for the company loss files.

[AIRCompanyLoss].[dbo].[tCLAUpgradeLogTiming]

Stores information about each upgrade activity, including the unique sequential identifiers and duration of upgrade for CLA records.

When CLA upgrade runs in parallel, Touchstone Re generates the tCLAUpgradeLogTiming table to record the performance of the upgrade. The Touchstone Re Company Import upgrade enables you to copy specific CLF for a selected company or automatically copy all the CLFs available in the source folder. Touchstone Re generates the CLAUpgradeLogTiming table to monitor the performance of CLA upgrade process. You can use the information in the table to analyze the duration and results of upgraded records.

[AIRExposureRe].[dbo].[tReinsuranceProgramCoverage] Stores the program coverages for each crop, forestry, and livestock type applied to the Multiple Peril Crop Insurance (MPCI) China model.
[AIRExposureRe].[dbo].[tReinsuranceTreatyReinstatement]

Stores information about reinstatement treaties included in reinsurance programs.

The TblConiditon table in Catrader stores the same reinstatement provision for all reinstatements. Whereas, Touchstone Re 8.0 generates the tReinsuranceTreatyReinstatement table to store reinstatement provision for each reinstatement record. During migration of Catrader data to Touchstone Re, the reinstatement provisions stored in the TblCondition table is transferred to tReinsuranceTreatyReinstatement table.

[AIRGeography].[dbo].[tAlternategeography_mapping_factors] Stores country-level mapping factors for primary and alternate geography records.
[AIRReference].[dbo].[tAMBestLOBMapping]
