Abstract

The paper deals with the actual topic of the insurance sector, the international financial accounting standard IFRS 17, which enters into force for insurance companies in Slovakia on 1.1.2023. It focuses on the valuation of the portfolio of unit-linked life insurance contracts using the VFA method. The standard permits the application of the VFA method to insurance contracts with an investment component linked to the underlying items of an insurance company. By creating a VFA model and then increasing the lapse rate by clients, we examine how the values that the standard introduces change. How the increase of lapse rate affects the contractual service margin, the risk adjustment and the values in the income statement. The insurance period of 20 years is a sufficiently long period to record the impact of the increased cancellation. Another output of the paper is the issuance of a simplified income statement and a comparison of the economic result of the basic VFA model and the model with  increasing lapse rate.
