Hello @oxalis, Our staff member @Staff-T1 is currently on vacation and although they will still be logging in, there may be a delay in responding to your question. Apologies. Everything should be back to normal shortly after the new year. -Gra…

Yes, those are readings that have been removed from the syllabus (or content outline as it's now called). I didn't remove them from the system entirely in order to maintain a complete record of past published exams but if you call up those BattleCar…

The government reinsurance (Gov RI) program helps provinces cover deficits when their agricultural insurance funds run out. Provinces can either: * Borrow funds when needed from the Gov RI pool to cover shortfalls, then repay by charging higher…

Chunking is an excellent way to make sense of bullet points.

The "Exam Summaries" page you referenced above was archived. There have been so many changes to the syllabus that the Exam Summaries page wasn't particularly useful anymore. Where did you find the link to it? (It can be found if you dig into the …

Yes, we will do that. Thanks.

1. Capital Available Post-Deductions One point of confusion is whether the provided Capital Available (CA) is after all necessary adjustments, specifically concerning unregistered reinsurance. From the examiner’s report for Question 15, it was no…

Thanks for pointing that out. You’re totally right—those methods are used differently depending on whether we're talking about probable yields or premium rates. For probable yields, the main ones are averaging, smoothing, cushioning, and capping. On…

Nice! I have linked to it from the wiki.

I have received my study kit for 2024-Fall and the date on the MSA reading is 2020, which is the same date as in the MSA reading from the previous study kit. So you can go ahead and study the BA MSA.Ratios reading. I think at some point the MSA r…

Sorry for the delay in investigating this @cornedov, * We have fixed the formatting issues for GOC.Flood. We have also investigated whether the new reading GOC.Flood is materially different from the older flood reading Govt.FloodSolutions …

It's all a bit confusing, but here is what I understand from the source text: * Liquidation refers to the process of winding up an insolvent insurer, selling off its assets, and using the proceeds to settle claims, debts, and obligations. This …

You're welcome!

Very nice! I gave you a mention in the wiki article.
-
Ok, I see what you mean. The Govt.FloodSolutions reading is 67 pages while the GOC.Flood reading is 117 pages so I assumed they were completely different. It appears this may not be the case however. We will look into it. It also appears that the…

Oops, something got cut off there. It should say that both those quantities equal 0. That's part of the given information:

Before providing my full answer below, note that when you are in the wiki area, there is a list of readings in the left sidebar that kinda sorta corresponds to the old rankings. You can use that to get a sense for which readings are particularly imp…

Thanks for pointing that out. We missed that because the content outline did not list this reference as "NEW". But yes, it does appear that PACICC coverage now applies on a "per-policy" basis, which indicates a shift from the original "per-occurr…

Well, the terms used in the source text are pitfalls and practical considerations (recommendations), but the distinction is somewhat arbitrary because it depends on how it's phrased. * When a point is phrased as something to avoid (should not c…

The GOC.Flood article is the current article and the one you need to study for the 2024-Fall exam. The other flood reading has been removed from the syllabus and the wiki article was archived but the associated BattleCards were inadvertently reta…

The changes will be reflected next time the Battle Cards are uploaded to the server which should be in a day or two.

If they are marked as outdated then you can ignore them. I kept them within the system to maintain a complete record of past exam questions. The Exam 6-Canada material has changed significantly over the past several years which is why you see so man…

P.S. The page numbers in the Odomirok text depend on which version you've got. The CAS published 2 versions, one has 450 pages and the other has 500 pages. They are identical except that the font in the first one is a little smaller and so takes few…

Got it, thx! I've linked to your hint from the wiki.

I have linked to your hint from the wiki. Thx!

Awesome!

There is a wiki page that highlights the changes. The link is in the side bar under "Syllabus Changes". Here's a direct link: * https://battleactsmain.ca/wiki6c/Returning_Users_6C

Yes, we already have quite a number of multiple choice problems for OSFI.MemoAA, and we already had fill-in-the-blank problems since those are just our normal randomized interactive problems. We also already had matching-type problems for CCIR.In…
