    Hi Kamal

    Gross premium valuation and net premium valuations are defined in the Glossary (Chapter 32). They differ in the premiums they use in their calculations, the allowance for expenses and their senstivity to assumption changes. I'd recommend taking a look at the Question / Solution on pages 15 and 16 of Chapterr 20 if you want a reminder of this.

    'Free surplus' is also known as 'free assets'. 'Free assets' and 'estate' are defined in the Glossary too.

    Best wishes
    Lynn
