Which item is included in the AOS?

In this area, the focus is on presenting the uncertainty around loss and LAE reserves by providing a range of reasonable estimates, and showing them net of reinsurance and gross of reinsurance if that calculation is done. This approach communicates not just a single point estimate but the spread of potential reserve outcomes, reflecting the actuarial judgment about data, methods, and the impact of reinsurance on amounts at risk. The other items (budget, marketing plan, and audit schedule) fall outside the actuarial scope of reserve estimation and specialty reporting, so they aren’t part of what this area emphasizes.
