Baseline Delta Approach in Insurance/Reinsurance Industries:
The paradigm shift in Actuarial techniques to explicit project cashflows has resulted in the necessity to process vast amounts of Cashflow Data. With S4HANA FPSL solution, this is now a possibility.
The Baseline Delta Approach enables a consistent presentation of the Financial Statements of an Insurer irrespective of the Accounting Standards used.
With Multi-GAAP Accounting being the order of the day, there is a never-before need to process lot of financial information. Adding complexity to the quagmire is the necessity to process data faster in order to have shorter closing process.
Using Baseline Delta Approach a common baseline is determined for all valuations and delta specific to a valuation is also determined.
This enables a concurrent closing process in which the Baseline is booked first which is followed by the deltas for the respective valuations.
In a nut-shell Baseline Delta Approach prepares financial statements across multiple GAAPs consistently and concurrently.
