Dear ladies and gentlemen!

2013 was a real challenge for the whole insurance market of Russia: the enterprises had to optimize their insurance budgets because on the total reduction of macroeconomic indicators. Despite the conditions of severe competition VSK successfully finished another period with high financial indicators and achieved a new record by collections – over 38.5 billion rubles.

We managed to overcome new market challenges, having intensi-fied the policy of individual complex approach to each customer. In many respects therefore VSK managed to confirm the leader’s title in the mortgage insurance, leasing transactions insurance and pledge insurance again as well as to win the status of the most loyal insurer among the major insurers.

Once upon a time, when we decided that our customers are our partners, VSK started to orient at the customer. We mastered our technologies during the recent years, which permitted our part-ners to conduct their business. It’s a pleasure that our forces were seen, and last year the expert Board of the National Competition

“The Company of the Year” named VSK the best insurance company, having marked the careful attention to the perfection of the cus-tomer’s service.

It goes without saying that this achievement is the result of the well coordinated efforts of the whole team of VSK, which is com-prised of more than 600 branches and offices throughout the coun-try. Many of our customers point out the professional properties of the company’s employees. It is especially pleasant that we get positive responses not only at the stage of sales but within settle-ment of losses. Following the high standards policy, we approved the corporate program of enhancement of the customers’ loyalty via the perfection of the loss arrangement system, including the reduction of the terms for case examination.

We are not going to be satisfied with what has already been achieved and we continue looking for the optimal business solu-tions for our customers. The team of VSK professionals contributes all the accumulated knowledge and experience to develop each new product or service, so that our partners could feel stable and maximally comfortable further.

Possessing business identity, the company increases its financial result stably. The new bar is set for the following year. We are cer-tain that our ambitious plans will be fulfilled!

Dear ladies and gentlemen!

Summing up the results of the year of 2013, we are glad to mark the high level of trust on the part of our partners and customers. During the last year we secured the insurance protection to over 130 thou-sands of organizations and to over 10 million citizens. Our activity resulted in the risk hedging covering totally over 1,000 trillion ru-bles. The collections by VSK, when compared to 2012, increased by 12.6% and made 38.5 billion rubles.

The company concentrated its main efforts traditionally in the sphere of increase of the customers’ loyalty. In 2013 we consider-ably advanced in application of individual approach policy when working with our customers, to select optimal ways of insurance protection to each of you and to promote to construct the effective risk management system.

By supporting the unified high standard of servicing in all the branches and offices, we managed to get the high level of custom-ers’ satisfaction. By continuing the traditions of orientation at the customers, including when settling losses, – we reduced the terms of payments, improved the notification on the procedure of case consideration, increased the total comfort level when communicat-ing to us.

Working constantly over the increase of level of business technol-ogy, we opened online sales channel in 2013. Now our customers may buy the policy for travelers going abroad at the site, and in the nearest time we plan to extend the proposal due to “box” products on life, health and property insurance of individuals.

Off course such changes required active work with staff. In 2013 we developed and implemented the Corporate Governance Code. Its norms intend to ensure profound and consequent adherence of the highest values of the business relations by all the employees: reli-ability, integrity and transparency, commitment to common result, respect to each customer and colleague, professionalism and con-tinuous development.

Nowadays we can see that our internal work yields the serious re-sults. The company looks into future with confidence and is ready to new achievements!

KEY PERFORMANCE INDEXES

Priority ActivitiesThe Company’s strategy is directed to increase the capitalization and to rise in profitability. The Company continues to increase the effectiveness of its activity by improvement of the structure of the insurance portfolio, increase of marginal auto business and optimization of acquisition costs under the portfolio of MTPL in loss making segments as well as by reduction of the level of ad-ministrative costs due to increase of performance of the back of-fice and middle office procedures.

Insurance Portfolio CoverageRisks reinsurance is one of the key factors to ensure the Compa-ny financial stability. One of the most effective risk reinsurance systems in the Russian insurance market is created in VSK. The Company analyses the activities and financial situation of the re-insurance companies carefully and cooperates with the most reli-able of them.

Outgoing reinsurance premiums in 2013 made up 1,763 million rubles. Effectiveness of reinsurance coverage is proved by high volume of compensations received from the re-insurers for large losses, paid by the Company to the insured and to the re-insured. Thus, in 2013 VSK received 255 million rubles as reinsurance com-pensation.

Assets managementThe investment strategy choice is caused by the objectives set to the Company, including the main ones in part of assets manage-ment:• ensuring required solvency and, accordingly, high assets liquid-

ity• ensuring investments recoverability, and, accordingly, minimi-

zation of different risks, accompanying investment activities• ensuring the competitive level of profitability of the invest-

ment portfolio

UnderwritingVSK activity in underwriting is aimed to solve two key tasks, which finally guarantee the high level of service and confidence for the customers: support of the product line, which corresponds to the market demand of the product line and realization of the weighted approaches to the formation of the portfolio for various business lines, which guarantees the high indicators of the company’s fi-nancial reliability.

An important aspect of VSK activity pertaining to underwriting is the orientation to the maximal coverage of the customers’ needs in insurance, therefore each customer may be proposed a wide range of the modern insurance products. If there is an insufficient amount of the standard products, or the customer has a complex demand – VSK may propose individual terms of insurance coverage and their cost. Thus all this is conducted within the shortest terms possible providing the guarantees of the financial support of the proposal, including via the tools for the reinsurance coverage.

The differentiation of product line permits VSK to work in similar effective way in corporate clients’ sector as well as with individ-uals. The retail customers are proposed with a large spectrum of simple, including box products, which permit the customer, which possesses no specialized knowledge, to find out better on the ex-act insurance coverage he/she needs and to minimize the time for the policy purchase.

The Company’s product line is thoroughly documented – the pro-cesses of development of products and their realization by mar-keting network are unified in the unified standards of the internal activity, therefore such “failures”, which may occur during the realization of the insurance products for the customer, are consid-ered a special “insured event”. In order to prevent from the similar events or to solve them as soon as possible, VSK applies the pro-cess of the permanent search of optimization points, which create new possibilities for the customers and increasing the effective-ness of activity of the company itself.

This creates conditions to increase the clients’ confidence in the company and the confidence of the company itself in the future. These two aspects are closely interconnected – it is apparent that only the Company having the high level of financial stability and formalization of activity may during transaction concluding pro-vide the customer with the feeling of protection of his/her inter-ests in case of force-majeure in future.
