Good examples include a high-level summary of firms’ most recent performance as well as a three to five year forecast. The forward-looking quantitative information may include some granular data (eg class of business breakdown) and may be followed by a reasonable rationale on the strategies the firm is pursuing to meet its stated objectives. The analysis of different scenarios is important to identify how perceived risks are likely to impact the firm’s strategy and support the firm’s development of a proactive intervention framework, such as proposed controls and management actions.
