5. 5-4
With mid-year parliamentary elections and a tough economic environment, the 2016 year was challenging in
Mongolia but proved to be yet another successful year for Tenger Insurance. The company posted a net profit of
MNT 1.5 billion, a fourfold increase over the prior year 2015, while total assets grew by 22% and return on equity
was 24.7%. These results were achieved through improved underwriting guidelines, favorable claims develop-
ment and savings in operating expenses. Gross written insurance premiums totaled MNT 9.0 billion in 2016, a
4.0% increase compared to the same period last year.
There were changes in the share of premiums written by distribution channel in 2016: premiums through inter-
mediaries decreased, with banc assurance reducing by 12.2% due to more restrictive bank lending activities,
whereas direct sales from head office increased by 10.0% and sales through branches grew by almost 40%
compared to 2015.
During the 2016 year gross written premium by product line increased on average by 10.2% with the exception
of liability insurance, due mainly to the limited insurance budgets of legal entities.
Insurance losses across all types of insurance decreased by MNT 76 million, resulting in a fall in the overall paid
claims ratio by 6%, the loss ratio for 2016 falling to 37.2% compared to 43.0% last year.
Tenger Insurance LLC is acknowledged in Mongolia as the insurer best able to assess risk and technically price
the insurance cover in line with its stated risk appetites. The result has been consistently higher net income than
the average for the Mongolian insurance market. Tenger Insurance has made considerable efforts to develop
the insurance sector, while our insurance services meet international standards including the quality and financial
reliability of reinsurance protection. During the last two years our reinsurance capacity increased from USD 2
million in 2015 to USD 10 million by the end of year 2016. Tenger Insurance is setting the standards for other
insurance companies in terms of technical underwriting ability and innovations in the insurance field, including its
on-line insurance platform.
Tenger Insurance was the first to introduce new accounting policies and to upgrade core IT systems in accor-
dance with the new requirements of the Financial Regulatory Committee. Monthly analysis of data received from
branches has been implemented. The MIIS system finally supported the direct input and import of claims data.
By simplifying the processes and production with the banc assurance channel, we have achieved significant re-
duction in headcount and improved operational risk management, internal reporting and actual expense savings.
More granular analysis are now available on the performance of individual insurance products, including product
value, product awareness, client satisfaction, and service quality feedback. With new analytical capabilities we
are able to recognize trends and leverage those trends to add more value to our customers.
Tenger Insurance provides insurance coverage to 61 corporates from the Top 100 Companies of Mongolia.
In the first quarter of 2016, Tenger Insurance held a one-week training workshop on underwriting and actuarial
practice for all employees, as well as other market practitioners, including representatives from the regulator,
conducted by invited international insurance experts. In May, the company organized the first Financial Insurance
Forum of Mongolia, in cooperation with one of the leading international insurance brokers, Willis Towers Watson.
High priority is given to customer service and claim handling; our fast and efficient service is regarded as the
best in the market, with settlement conducted on average within three working days. At Tenger Insurance the
monitoring of the claim approval and settlement process is based on the principles of clarity and fairness.
During 2016 the company won a number of international awards: Best Insurance Company in Mongolia by
International Finance Magazine and Best Online Insurance Company in Mongolia by Global Banking and Finance
Review.

BALANCE OF PAYMENTS
Proxy loss of the balance of payments as of the year end of 2016 has decreased by USD 249.9 million to USD
-18.2 million. The main reason of this decline was the decrease of current account loss. Specifically, compared
to previous year’s performance, the profit of capital and financial account decreased by USD 58.0 million and
the loss of current account decreased by USD 412.0 million. The decrease of current account loss is explained
by increase of goods balance profit and decrease of income balance loss. Following these improvements, the
exposure on international reserve will be lightened.
INFLATION
Inflation rate (UB) has been decreasing constantly to -0.6% as of August 2016, since August 2014. This defla-
tion continued for 4 months. The reason of decrease in inflation rate is thinner total demand as consequence of
economic difficulty. As of the end of the year 2016, inflation rate was 0.5%.
It is expected that inflation rate will be around 5.0% in the year 2017. This is under the target rate but there are
still risks on importing goods’ inflation and supply-driven (gasoline, meat, wheat etc.) inflation.

FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT
Due to the domestic and international economic difficulty, there has not been much foreign direct investment
recovery since 2013. As of the end of the year 2016, net foreign direct investment plunged to USD -4,130.5
billion as the result of increasing cash outflow which was caused by big corporations’ loan repayments to foreign
investors.
GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT
GDP growth was respectively +7.8% and +2.3% for the year 2014 and 2015. However as of the year end of
2016, it was +1.0%.
The proportion of net tax in GDP growth has been negative for the last 11 months. It is because of the shrinkage
of trade industry and base tax payments which was caused by the economic difficulty and slowness driven by
deficit of balance of payments.

INTERNATIONAL RESERVES
International reserve is USD 1,296.3 million as of the year end 2016, which is lower than previous year’s perfor-
mance by USD 26.8 million (2.0%). The reasons of comparably stable international reserve are the increase of
gold sold to Bank of Mongolia and increase of currency inflow to Mongolia. The Bank of Mongolia has bought
18.3 tons of gold as of December, 2016. International reserve can cover 4.9 months’ worth of import which is
slightly lower than previous year’s performance.

Mongolian RGDP is comparably high volatile and shows same pattern as of the commodity prices index. This
indicates that Mongolian dependence on mining industry should be lowered and changes have to be applied
on budget planning.
It is anticipated that unemployment rate is to increase from 9.4% to 11-13% in 1H2017.

18. OPERATIONS
MAJOR CHANGES IN OPERATIONS
Tenger Insurance became fully compliant with the new accounting rules introduced by Financial Regulatory
Committee of Mongolia during Q1, 2016. The new accounting system enables financial reporting in accordance
with IFRS, along with adequate allocation of insurance reserves and pro-rata recognition of insurance premium
related book entries, including acquisition expenses, in alliance with their effective dates.
At the same time our core system HeavenPro went a major upgrade aligned with these accounting changes.
The upgrade involved advancements and automation in several core insurance modules, such as recognition of
commission, receivables, classification of earned premium, reinsurance, claims, policy production and reserving.
The new core insurance system also enabled remote branches to access the system via web. As a result we
reached not only operational efficiency within both back and front offices, which increased staff productivity and
reduced headcount, but also benefited our clients and partner companies. Insurance intermediaries such as
agents and brokers have now greater web access to our system in producing policies and obtaining reports.
Partner companies selling our policies through our system:
• Banks: ХасBank, NIBank
• Brokers: Ersdeliin shiidel, Sureg Kharaatsai, Smart Brokers, Tod Capital, Tsagaan Gerelt
• Partners: XacLeasing
As part of goal to improve operational productivity the IT team succeeded in a number of automation solutions,
including integration of claims part of MIIS - third party platform with our system, implementation of business letter
and document retention system, and internal legal document sharing platform.
As of end of 2016, we continue our cooperation with following IT vendor companies: Infosoft LLC, IT Zone LLC,
Trikom LLC, Mogul Service and Support LLC, MMIA on MIIS, Softline LLC.
IT SYSTEM FAILURES
In 2016, long term system failure occurred twice in the core system:
1. Failure in onsite electrical wiring caused halt in Central server for 20 hours. Operation resumed within 2
hours.
2. Core system migration required shutting down the central server for 4 hours. The data was restored within
2 hours.

HR MANAGEMENT
Through strategic partnerships and collaboration, we recruit, develop and retain a high performing and diverse
workforce and foster a healthy, safe, and productive work environment for employees in order to maximize
individual and organizational potential and position Tenger Insurance as an Employer of Choice.
CLAIMS SERIVCE
As the purpose of any insurer is to shield its customer from financial losses arisen from probable risks, we aimed
at shortening the loss indemnity approval period, with end result of 3.5 days on average.
Net losses reimbursed to customers amounted to MNT 2.4 billion for 3,524 claims with loss ratio of 37%.
Our effort in making a difference to our customers shows that old standards can be and should be broken in
order to bring out lasting and positive impact in the lives of people.
Under increased digitalization, providing the client with timely information on indemnity progress via emails and
mobile phones was part of natural progress within the technological awareness goal of the company.

monitoring unit directly reporting to the Board of Directors (BOD). Internal audits were performed on HR and
Finance activities covering periods of 2013-2016.
District taxation authority performed inspection of reports for 2011-2015, as well as FRC inspected the company
operations for 2015 and H1 2016. The inspections resulted in improvements of the company operations in areas
of claims, reinsurance, finance and human resources management.
TENGER INSURANCE IMPROVED ITS POLICIES TO AN INTERNATIONAL LEVEL IN FIVE IMPORTANT
AREAS IN 2016.
In the updated Underwriting policy, Tenger Insurance is a step closer to the international underwriting operation
as underwriters’ job functions and work instructions are clearly specified and distinguished from sales staff.
Particularly, underwriters started to study the potential client’s main operations and conduct risk evaluation in
order to offer the most suitable insurance coverage specifically tailored for the client. This approach is also
useful when potential clients are willing to purchase coverage for uninsurable risks. For such cases, skills and
experience of underwriters are crucial in order to come to an optimal solution that is win-win for both sides.
Premium payment by installments is one way of our customer care. However, sometimes delay in payments
means termination of the insurance coverage and this can cause an issue when it comes to claims. This was
recognized as our faults in communication with customers. Therefore, to eliminate this type of misunderstanding
and improve our customer care, we had clearly defined in our procedure the steps to follow when it comes to
partial payments by schedule and payment delays.
Within the above improvements from the risk management side, underwriters will be reporting on policies with
premium partial payments on a regular basis as well as constantly monitoring profitability and risk level of their
respective portfolios or lines. The updated Risk management policy also defines the risks that should be under
observation and within this underwriters came out with appetites for all insurance lines and products.
For insurance, customers evaluate our service when it comes to claims. Therefore, customer care in claims is
more important than customer care in sales. Accordingly, the Claim handling policy was enriched with dedicated
section on customer complaints and defined our responsive actions to be taken if complaints occur.
Another essential part of our operation is information technology as our operations are fully automated and we
are the one of two insurance companies in the market with comprehensive insurance software, which can be
accessed through web from everywhere by our staff. In this case, its safety and emergency backup plans are
crucial for us. Thus, the Information Technology policy was supplied with Emergency response plan procedure
for information catastrophes, Database procedure, Software development and maintenance procedure, Social
media user authorization procedure and Electron mail procedure.
In the beginning of 2016, the Financial Regulatory Committee (FRC) approved the new accounting standard.
Tenger Insurance was the first to implement the new standard by introduce new accounting internal policy in
accordance with the new regulatory requirements.
RISK MANAGEMENT
25. 25-24
INTERNAL CONTROL
Taking risks is an inherent part of entrepreneurial behavior. A structured risk management process allows
management to take risks in a controlled manner. In order to provide a comprehensive view of Tenger
Insurance’s business activities, risks and opportunities are identified in a structured way combining elements
of a top-down and bottom-up approach. Within risk management activities, we have developed company Risk
Appetite, where we identified risks that can affect our day-to-day operations and defined these risks’ measures
and corresponding tolerance levels in order to monitor and report on a regular basis. All relevant risks and
opportunities are prioritized in terms of impact and likelihood, considering quantitative and qualitative aspects and
reported to the top management in a monthly basis.
Within the Risk Appetite we consider the following classes of risks:

TENGER INSURANCE LLC
STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION
AS AT 31 DECEMBER 2016
(IN THOUSAND S OF MONGOLIAN TOGROGS)
38. Dolgorsuren:
“We are grateful for collaboration and risk management
support we receive from Tenger Insurance”
… Our company is successfully operating in the wool and cashmere
business for over 20 years with our own established brand “Goyo”. As a
major player in cashmere sector we bring our garments near our clients
through 8 branch stores in UB and 10 in provinces.
Besides success as in any business, we encounter obstacles and
challenges. Some of them are sudden danger with little possibility to
predict. For instance, our store counters provide all possibilities to view our
products from anywhere. And even though we place surveillance cameras
through assessing potential shoplifting risks and enroll our customer service staff in suitable risk prevention
trainings, our stores still suffer from inventory shortage from shoplifters. Nevertheless, our main solution for
this risk is certainly an insurance coverage, specifically designed for such risk. As a result, we continue to be
protected from all risks via inventory insurance from Tenger Insurance for 3rd year.
During last year holiday high seasons we encountered inventory shortages, on each occasion Tenger Insurance
was able to provide first class claim handling service and cleared our company from losses within 3 days. Our
surveillance camera records and inventory checklist provide the foundation for compensation of financial losses
in such swift manner. We are grateful for the collaboration and risk management support we receive from Tenger
Insurance.
CUSTOMERS’ IMPRESSIONS
Bolormaa: “I used to wrongly interpret insurance as one form of a tax”
… You ask me, where I spend my indemnity received, well, undoubtedly, I try to invest in my wellbeing, since
this is coverage for what I spent for my health. For example, buy immune boosting vitamins and supplements or
spend on gym membership. The company I work for is a foreign invested company and since I started working
here six years ago, I am covered by Tenger Insurance health insurance, including my family: my husband and
son. Before, I misunderstood personal private insurance as same as state social welfare, with little benefit. Thus,
I had the same opinion as many others – paying insurance premium means the same, as paying one form of a
tax. [I am covered by Tenger Insurance health insurance, including my family: my husband and son for the last
six years.]
There’s a saying that illness comes untold. Therefore, bearing in mind our future, financial expenses and our
wellbeing, in particular, we chose health insurance of Tenger Insurance. Any member of our family, including me,
will be reimbursed in the form of loss indemnity for the expenses spent on treating illnesses.
Tumur: “I’ve been grateful for insuring the health of our entire family”
In my opinion, the core of a family is staying happy in any hardship. Happiness can be defined by love of
husband and wife, by children’s laughter, but most importantly by being healthy and well. And this is the most vital
constituent of a happy family. I was greatly pleased, when my wife, Bolormaa, first told us that we are covered
by Tenger Insurance health insurance.
This insurance policy enabled us, all three of us, to be treated at a clinic of our choice for any illnesses, including
the most “common” ones such as cold or tooth ache. We are proud we could make a valuable investment
towards our health.
We wish all families of Mongolia health, peace and happiness.
