What does the Article mean in plain language?
Separate insurer results from policyholder returns. Exclude charges to policyholders for taxes the insurer pays on their returns. Include returns absent from net income to the extent the corresponding policyholder liability movement is included. Paragraphs D and E restrict reserve-movement expenses connected to excluded dividends or equity results. Reconcile each reserve movement to the security, beneficiary and tax treatment so that excluding a return does not leave an unsupported matching deduction.

Does NBR guidance replace the Regulations?
