forethoughtful/future-oriented


Explanation:

The Board plans to address some other matters relating to discount rates at a future meeting. The Board plans to discuss at a future meeting:

•- how an insurer should report premiums and claims information in a ***prospective approach.***
•- whether an insurer should accrue interest on pre-claims liabilities and account separately for the release from the risk embodied in measurements of pre-claims liabilities.
