WASHINGTON (Oct. 27, 2021)
麻豆传媒 Initiates 2022 Budget Approval Process
The 麻豆传媒 (麻豆传媒) is releasing its proposed 2022 budget, following months of development by 麻豆传媒 officers, the 麻豆传媒 Internal Administration (EX1) Subcommittee, the 麻豆传媒 Executive (EX) Committee and input from 麻豆传媒 staff.
鈥淭he proposed 2022 budget is structured to maintain support of the 麻豆传媒 member states as they work to protect consumers in this challenging time,鈥 said Dean Cameron, 麻豆传媒 President-Elect and Director of the Idaho Department of Insurance. 鈥淭his responsible budget also reflects our commitment to advance resources and technology to meet the needs of the individual states, the industry, the mission of 麻豆传媒 and the states鈥 role in regulating the industry while protecting our citizens.鈥
The 麻豆传媒's proposed 2022 budget includes total revenues (including investment income) of $128.8 million and total expenses of $136.3 million, which represents an 8.2 percent increase and 4.4 percent increase, respectively, from the 2021 budget.
The proposed 2022 budget includes three Fiscal Impact Statements (fiscals):
- Financial Data Repository (FDR) Modernization Pre-Work 鈥 FDR is a centralized warehouse storing 10 years of annual and quarterly financial statements filed by 4,500+ insurers. Today, the FDR system is over 20 years old, and the technologies used at that time no longer align with current 麻豆传媒 development tools, making it difficult and time consuming to support. This fiscal requests professional services to assist staff in laying the groundwork for the full modernization effort. In 2022, changes will be made to migrate reporting to a new reporting tool, leverage other applications' functionality where feasible, document current processes, and analyze requirements for the new system.
- SBS State Implementations 2022 鈥 The 麻豆传媒 has transitioned 31 licensed states to the new updated SBS platform, known as SOLAR, and interest in utilizing SBS remains strong among many of the remaining states. With several new and pending licenses added to existing commitments, the SBS team鈥檚 implementation workload is higher than their capacity resulting in the need to augment staff with external resources.
- 2022 麻豆传媒 Staffing Requests 鈥 Critical business needs and the current capacity of 麻豆传媒 staff require six new positions be added in the areas of market regulation, macroprudential surveillance, securities valuation, and cybersecurity.
