Policy Options Sample Clauses

The "Policy Options" clause defines the range of choices or alternatives available under an insurance policy or contractual agreement. It typically outlines different coverage levels, benefit structures, or optional add-ons that a policyholder can select based on their needs. For example, a life insurance policy might offer term, whole, or universal life options, each with distinct features and premiums. This clause's core function is to provide flexibility and customization, ensuring that parties can tailor the agreement to best fit their specific requirements and risk preferences.
Policy Options. The policy options discussed in this report may help further mitigate the susceptibility of MMFs to runs. Some of these options may be adopted by the SEC under its existing authorities. Others would require legislation and action by multiple government agencies and the MMF industry.
Policy Options. The terms of reference for this study identified five possible policy actions under consideration by the Commission. These options are: • Status quo (no further EU action); • Promoting and sharing of best practices; • Encouraging self-regulation by the industry at EU level; • A Recommendation; • A Directive. The main characteristics of each option, as set out in the terms of reference for the study are: Option 1: No further EU action – This option is a baseline on which the costs and benefits of each of the policy options can be compared. Option 2: Promoting and sharing best practices - In the EU, there is currently a wide diversity of approaches to combating financial exclusion. The Commission could envisage the creation of expert groups and/or informal networks of Member States for sharing best practices. Expert groups and networks could assess the issue and the effectiveness of political actions. While reviewing national practices, Member States could compare these with those in other Member States that have more efficient systems in place, in order to update and improve their own procedures. This could bring pressure to bear and encourage governments to align their national initiatives with best practice. Option 3: Encouraging self-regulation by the industry at EU level - The Commission could encourage self-regulation by the industry with clear and effective monitoring and dispute settlement mechanisms in those countries where regulation is not in place. A possible initiative could be the coordination of national efforts via a European Code of Conduct with representatives of the banking industry in all Member States as signatories. • A commitment to lifting obstacles to the granting of Basic Bank Accounts to citizens or residents of other Member States; • The establishment of an effective complaints procedure; • The implementation of a mechanism to monitor the effectiveness of the Code.

Policy Options. (a) The Ceding Company may, with the Reinsurer’s prior written consent, offer Policyholders the right to elect to receive a payment (a “Buyout Payment”) in exchange for a complete buy-back of such Policyholder’s Reinsured LTC Policy and discharge of the Ceding Company’s obligations thereunder (a “Buyout Settlement”). In the event a Policyholder elects to accept a Buyout Settlement and the Reinsurer has consented to the offering of such Buyout Settlement, the full amount of the applicable Buyout Payment shall constitute a Reinsured Liability and be reinsured under this Agreement. Upon a Buyout Payment in respect of any Reinsured LTC Policy, such policy, including any amendments, riders or endorsements attached thereto, shall cease to be a Reinsured Policy under this Agreement, and with the exception of the Buyout Payment (if the Reinsurer has consented to the relevant Buyout Settlement), the Reinsurer shall have no further liability with respect to such policy and any amendments, riders or endorsements attached thereto. For the avoidance of doubt, the Reinsurer shall have no obligation or liability with respect to any Buyout Payment if it has not given its consent to the offering of the related Buyout Settlement. (b) As an alternative to offering Policyholders an approved rate increase on a Reinsured LTC Policy, the Ceding Company may make policy changes (other than Buyout Settlements, which are addressed in Section 3.14(a)), including but not limited to the types set forth in Schedule H, utilizing actuarial methods and processes consistent with those utilized with respect to Other LTC Policies (any of the foregoing a “Policy Option”) either (i) with the Reinsurer’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) or (ii) as approved or non-disapproved by the appropriate Insurance Regulatory Authority, if such Policy Option is actuarially equivalent (which determination of actuarial equivalence may or may not take into account age, consistent with the approach taken by the relevant Insurance Regulatory Authority in approving or non-disapproving such Policy Option) as compared to the foregone approved rate increase; provided that, the Ceding Company proposal to the relevant Insurance Regulatory Authority with respect to such Policy Option does not have a disproportionate adverse effect on the Reinsurer as compared to the Ceding Company.
