Candidates should become familiar with these item types. Item type samples are available on the Pearson Vue CAS webpage.  \nMultiple Choice  \nMultiple answer choices are presented after a problem with only one correct answer.  \nMultiple Selection  \nMultiple answer choices are presented after a problem with more than one correct answer.  \nPoint and Click  \nAn image is presented after a problem where the candidate must identify the correct area of the image by clicking on the correct location in the image.  \nFill in the Blank  \nOne or more blank sections are presented after the problem or within a statement where the candidate must input the correct response(s) .  \nMatching  \nContent columns presented after a problem where the candidate must correctly match content from one column to another.  \nConstructed Response  \nA blank response area is presented after a problem where candidates must construct and develop their own answer.  \nSpreadsheet  \nSpreadsheet-type items are displayed to the candidate in a spreadsheet format and candidates can make use of most spreadsheet functions. Please review the testing guide prior to sitting for your exam to note any differences between the Pearson Vue testing environment and common spreadsheet software (e.g., Excel, Google Sheets) .  \nExam Cognitive Level  \nEach task is tied to a certain type of mental operation or thinking skill, which is called the cognitive level. ACAS and FCAS use four cognitive levels, and every examination item is authored to address both the task and one of the following cognitive levels paired with that task.  \nRemember: 0-10%  \nTests the ability of the candidate to recall or remember knowledge or facts.  \nUnderstand and Apply: 40-50%  \nMeasures the candidate’s ability to understand and apply ideas and concepts to new situations.  \nAnalyze and Evaluate: 40-50%  \nRequires the candidate to analyze information, combine concepts/ideas, and justify a position resulting from that combination.  \nCreate: 0-10%  \nRequires the candidate to synthesize conclusions by evaluating the validity of ideas and concepts.  \nExam Section Details  \n\n| DOMAINS | DOMAIN WEIGHT |\n| --- | --- |\n| A. Catastrophe and Reinsurance | 25-35% |\n| B. Risk and Return | 20-30% |\n| C. Financial Risk Management (FRM) | 20-30% |\n| D. Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) | 15-25% |\n\nA. Catastrophe and Reinsurance  \nCandidates are expected to be able to interpret the methods used to model losses due to catastrophic events for the purpose of generating a catastrophe expected loss cost. Candidates are also expected to manage the total exposure from catastrophic events within an insurance portfolio.  \nCandidates will also be familiar with current and historical methods used to price reinsurance, with an emphasis on the application of these methods in pricing reinsurance contracts.  \n\n| TASKS |\n| --- |\n| 1. Fit loss distribution-based exposure curves. |\n| 2. Determine the loss cost of various types of reinsurance contracts (e.g., excess of loss, quota share, surplus share, treaty, aggregate excess of loss, and facultative) . |\n| 3. Determine the effect of common contract provisions (e.g., reinstatements, loss corridors, clash covers, profit and sliding scale commissions) on the loss cost of reinsurance contracts. |\n| 4. Evaluate catastrophe models. |\n| 5. Apply catastrophe models to ratemaking. |\n| Readings:\u003Cbr>-Grossi & Kunreuther\u003Cbr>-Clark\u003Cbr>-Bernegger |\n\nB. Risk and Return  \nCandidates can define, compare, select, and apply appropriate risk measures to compute a risk-loaded technical premium. Candidates can evaluate the economic value of insurance cash flows refle","cbCaimfGfmczti4h","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimfGfmczti4h","pdf",194741,"English","# Exam Overview\n## Delivery Format\n## Exam Item Types\n## Exam Cognitive Level\n# Exam Section Details\n## A.
