FlexGIA™ enables institutions to fulfill three fundamental stewardship responsibilities:

Protect what we own.
(Portfolio Diversification Series)
Protect what we are building.
(PAR+™ Series)
Help build what comes next.
(Opportunity Innovation Series)

FlexGIA™ is a form of high quality, short duration, floating rate debt obligation issued by special purpose insurance companies, each an IAC™ Insurer. Each payment of interest and repayment of principal is backed by US government obligations, or other government obligations designated in acceptable currencies.   FlexGIA™ is engineered for high credit quality and risk mitigation.
Stewardship of Institutional Investments

Preserve and strengthen long-term investment strategies.
Portfolio Diversification Series.  
Stewardship of Enterprise Resilience

Increase the enterprise's ability to adapt and respond.  
PAR+™ Series.  
Stewardship of Community Opportunity

Create Future Community Opportunities 
Opportunity Innovation Series. 

Together, these three stewardship responsibilities form a coordinated institutional framework for preserving long-term investments, strengthening enterprise resilience, and creating future community opportunities. FlexGIA™ provides the long-duration financial architecture that supports each of them.

FlexGIA™ - Patented Design  

Each interest payment and repayment of Principal is backed by eligible government obligations held by government-approved custodians under statutory legislation, designed to assure timely receipt by FlexGIA™ holders. FlexGIA™ are issued by "bankruptcy proof" regulated insurance company issuers. Systemic risk exposures are addressed through the ability of holders to claim directly against custodians. Upon maturity or interest payment date, the structural risk mitigation provisions of the IGF Act enable eligible government obligations to be transferred directly to holders.

The dynamic nature of FlexGIA™ technologies benefit from changes in eligible government yield curve periodically which may shorten or lengthen time to "prepayment". A prepayment event is often beneficial to issuer and holder.

In addition, FlexGIA™ is designed to facilitate active volatility risk mitigation as well as increased periodic valuation in a "stable value" instrument as described below.

Beyond high credit quality and floating-rate income, FlexGIA™ has been engineered to address many of the challenges faced by institutional investors, including interest-rate volatility, carrying value stability, enterprise resilience, and long-duration stewardship.

Stewardship of Institutional Investments

Portfolio Diversification

FlexGIA™ enables institutions to transform selected long-term investment strategies into high-quality floating-rate debt obligations…

Strategy Transformation - FlexGIA™ enable transformation of myriad asset strategies into high quality floating rate debt obligations, the interest on and repayment of Principal of which are fully backed by US Treasury | Agency obligations, with no timing or currency risk. This unique debt instrument is designed to mitigate market value risk, credit risk, operations risk, systemic risk and re-hypothecation risk exposures.

A portfolio of FlexGIA™ Reference Series enables institutions to diversify long-term investment strategies across cash-flow timing, interest-crediting profiles, repayment characteristics and prepayment behavior while maintaining the highest credit quality.

Each FlexGIA™ Series in a portfolio is designed to create short duration, floating rate, US Treasury | Agency credit quality, with risk-adjusted returns emulating investment grade debt obligations, with risk-based capital similar to US Treasury and Agency debt obligations for depository institutions, insurance companies and other regulated institutional participants.

Traditional portfolio diversification focuses on what institutions own. Portfolio Diversification Series extend that discipline by diversifying how long-term investment strategies behave through time.

Periodic interest rate revenues of Reference Series of FlexGIA™ and prepayments may benefit from portfolio diversification through positions in mutliple FlexGIA™ Reference Series.

A portfolio of FlexGIA™ Reference Series provides diversification not only across investment strategies, but also across interest-crediting profiles, cash-flow timing, repayment characteristics and “look-back make-whole” prepayment structures.

Stewardship of Enterprise Resilience

Enterprise resilience is strengthened through the disciplined stewardship of institutional risk capacity. 

Leading enterprises continually expand their ability to respond to changing business conditions by combining high-credit-quality financial assets with carefully governed financial guaranty, insurance, funding and other risk mitigation resources.

PAR+™ is a bespoke institutional risk capacity program. Through FlexGIA™, Financial Guaranty and Insurance Policy Forms, participating enterprises may establish high-credit-quality institutional assets while accessing governed risk capacity designed to support a broad range of financial guaranty, insurance and other enterprise risk mitigation objectives.

Each PAR+™ Series is engineered around the specific balance sheet, income statement and enterprise risk management objectives of its participants. The resulting architecture complements existing capital management, investment management and enterprise risk management strategies while creating a disciplined framework for long-term institutional risk capacity.

PAR+ - Bespoke Reference Series

Reference Series with bespoke terms may be requested by institutional and governmental participants from applicable IAC™ Insurers on a "reverse enquiry" basis. Interest payments and Principal repayment of these 30 year, floating rate, high quality debt obligations are fully backed by US Treasury | Agency debt obligations, held by government approved custodians under the Investors Guaranty Fund, Ltd. (Policyholder Reserves) Act, 1991. IAC™ Insurers have been rated in the top rating category by international rating agencies since 1989.

PAR+™ FlexGIA™ Reference Series may be designed in a bespoke fashion to address intractable risk exposures of one or more PAR+™ Reference Series purchasers,  mitigating specific balance sheet risk exposures through indemnity,  transference of distressed and at-risk assets, pure risk transfer through credit substitution, structural risk mitigation, applying  "portfolio effect", time cycle modulation and other patented technologies developed and in operation for four decades by IAC™ Insurers.

As illustrated, IAC™ Insurers may provide a wide range of FlexGIA™ Series designed to address specific balance sheet and income statement issues. 

FlexGIA™ in conjunction with PAR+™ technologies, enable institutional portfolios, depository institutions, insurance companies, and other regulated institutional parties to not only increase risk adjusted return, enhance risk based capital, but to mitigate a wide range of risk exposures potentially impacting financial results.

For institutions wishing to increase service revenue, such as depository institutions and insurance companies, FlexGIA™ and PAR+™ technologies, provide a long term source of service income, which may benefit from immediate revenue recognition on closing, increasing capital and/or surplus.

From Enterprise Objectives to Institutional Architecture

There is rarely a single path to strengthening an institutional balance sheet or expanding enterprise risk capacity. Every organization possesses a unique combination of investments, contractual relationships, cash flows and risk exposures. PAR+™ begins by identifying the enterprise’s objectives, then exploring how selected assets, liabilities and risk exposures may be reorganized into a more resilient institutional architecture. The following balance sheet perspectives illustrate some of the many ways FlexGIA™ Reference Series may support investment stewardship, enterprise resilience and long-term strategic capacity.  

Asset Transformation to FlexGIA™

FlexGIA™ enable transformation of a portfolio of assets held by institutional parties into high quality floating rate debt obligations the interest on and repayment of Principal of which are fully backed by US Treasury | Agency obligations, with no timing or currency risk. This unique debt instrument mitigates market value risk, credit risk, operations risk, systemic risk and re-hypothecation risk exposures. Myriad types of instruments may be acquired by an IAC™ Insurer from banks, insurance companies, and portfolio funds through a form of "portfolio swap" creating  Bespoke Series,  Special Situations Series and other categories of FlexGIA™ Series.

PAR+™ enables organizations to combine risk mitigation, capital resources and contractual solutions within a coordinated enterprise framework.

Stewardship of Community Opportunity

Opportunity Innovation Series of FlexGIA™ provide a framework through which local institutions may participate  in developing infrastructure, innovation and long-term economic development while maintaining high-credit-quality institutional investments.

Opportunity Innovatiion Reference Series

facilitating 
local Community Infrastructure funding as well as Opportunity Innovation Ecosystems

Opportunity Innovation Reference Series of FlexGIA™ may be established by an IAC™ Insurer to support long-term community opportunity initiatives. Reference Series are generally issued in minimum amounts of USD1 billion and may be increased over time based on demand.

Interest payments and Principal repayment of these 30 year, floating rate, high quality debt obligations are fully backed by US Treasury|Agency debt obligations, held by government approved custodians under the Investors Guaranty Fund, Ltd. (Policyholder Reserves) Act, 1991. IAC™ Insurers' obligations have been rated in the top rating category of international rating agencies for more than 30 years.

Periodic interest crediting rate is reset each year between 1 Year Treasury Index and Annual Cap which float within an agreed interest rate Lifetime Cap and Floor. A prepayment of FlexGIA™ is subject to a "look-back, make-whole" prepayment premium designed to achieve an agreed level of compound return established at issuance.

IAC™ Insurers may facilitate a wide range of community investment and funding initiatives by enabling local depository institutions, insurance companies, municipal and state governments, corporations, retirement systems and investment funds to participate together through Opportunity Innovation Reference Series of FlexGIA™.
Communities create long-term prosperity when community institutions—including banks, hospitals, universities, utilities, foundations, employers and governments—are able to invest together in their shared future.

Series Architecture

FlexGIA™ has been engineered as a family of compatible Reference Series rather than a single financial instrument. Each Series fulfills a specific institutional role and may operate independently or together with other Series to create solutions for investment stewardship, enterprise resilience, community opportunity and other strategic objectives.

FlexGIA™ Series CHARACTERISTICS

FlexGIA™ may be issued under several types of Series.

FlexGIA™ Series may be configured under a variety of Series characteristics, each designed to address particular institutional, strategic, ecosystem, participation or funding objectives. A single FlexGIA™ Series may incorporate one or more compatible Series characteristics, enabling bespoke contractual solutions within the IGF System™.

Institutional Series

This type of FlexGIA™ Series is designed to address specific institutional objectives of insurance companies, depository institutions, sovereign wealth funds, portfolio funds, public and private retirement funds, government and corporate trusts, and other institutional investors. 

Examples include Series configured to acquire subordinated capital debentures of community banks, regulatory surplus notes of life and property & casualty insurance companies, and other compatible institutional obligations.  

AP Series

US Banks and insurance companies which own FlexGIA™ Series may benefit from converting FlexGIA™ into interests in accredited ETF (exchange traded funds) which focus on those strategies. 
Whether directly as an Authorized Participant (“AP”) in an accredited ETF, or through a Qualifying ETF AP, FlexGIA™ may be configured to enhance value and liquidity in supporting bond type ETFs. 
For example, a US Depository Institution owning an interest in a FlexGIA™ Series with a focus on US bank regulatory capital comprised of US banks in a particular region, may wish to convert into ETF interests in a bond ETF for liquidity and an uplift in value. A FlexGIA™ Series which includes future accretion at a lifetime floor and an annual floor which exceeds the “risk free” rate, i.e. 1 Year US Treasury Index, may benefit from an increase in value over par, as such may lead to higher conversion value, although no assurance can be given. A US Depository Institution may wish to hold ETF interests on its books, sell into public markets, and/or develop a program for facilitating their depositors’ purchase of ETFs.  

Participant Series

This type of FlexGIA™ Series is designed to provide additional participation capacity to PAR Plus™ program arrangements.

Depending upon the objectives of the Series, participation may include PAR Plus™ FlexGIA™ Series, transformed risk exposures, specialised capital instruments, residual interests, and other compatible contractual obligations operating within the IGF System™. 

Participant Series may be configured to support a single PAR Plus™ program or a diversified portfolio of PAR Plus™ programs.

Accordingly, a Participant Series may be established for a specific multinational, institutional, or governmental program, or to provide participation capacity across multiple entrepreneurial, community, or ecosystem-based PAR Plus™ arrangements.  

Special Situations Series

This Series type includes FlexGIA™ issued as a part of a Series with a focus on providing debt warehouse funding as a part of the Program, risk mitigation activities and other purposes. 

Strategy Series

This Series type includes FlexGIA™ issued with a focus on a specific risk strategies, such as Commercial Real Estate, including Hospitality.

O|Zone™ Series

These Series of FlexGIA™ are designed to support funding and risk mitigation of activities operating under O|Zone™ Initiatives.

FlexGIA™ Series - Issuance

Reverse Enquiry 
Given the bespoke nature of FlexGIA™, accredited Bermuda insurance intermediaries facilitate reverse enquiry requests from accredited institutional investors, in accordance with applicable Bermuda regulatory requirements. Recognised securities broker dealers and other qualified intermediaries may participate where appropriate for regulatory, issuance and distribution purposes. 

Series Governance Each FlexGIA™ Series is established with contractual characteristics appropriate to its intended objectives and participating parties. A Series may incorporate one or more compatible Series characteristics, enabling bespoke contractual configurations within the IGF System™. Series documentation may include participation requirements, concentration limits, diversification objectives, negotiated interest crediting parameters, prepayment provisions, commutation provisions and other governance features designed to preserve the regulatory, accounting, operational and structural integrity of the applicable Series. Where appropriate, participation requirements may distinguish between parties receiving funding, insurance or risk mitigation through a particular Series and parties participating as holders of that Series or in other independently constituted FlexGIA™ Series operating within the IGF System™. 

Issuance Structure FlexGIA™ may be issued under a contractual framework evidenced in a form similar to a conventional bond or other compatible contractual instrument, depending upon the applicable Series and governing documentation. Holdings may be maintained through government approved custodians, fiscal agents or other qualified custodial arrangements agreed with the Holder. Periodic interest payments, principal repayments and other contractual obligations may be administered through government approved custodians and fiscal agents in a manner designed to support international regulatory compliance, including anti-money laundering, sanctions, counter-terrorism financing and related requirements. The contractual structure is also designed to mitigate re-hypothecation and other systemic custody and banking risks through segregated ownership, custodial and contractual arrangements. 

Digital Representation Where appropriate, a Holder may elect to utilise an international fiscal agent facility enabling a FlexGIA™ to be denominated in USD$1,000 principal units or other approved denominations. One or more units may be mapped to a Controllable Electronic Record (“CER”). A CER is a recognised digital asset capable of being controlled in a manner analogous to possession of a physical asset. The CER framework was introduced through the 2022 amendments to the Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) in the United States. 

Digital Persistence and Registry
FlexGIA™ may be issued in multiple authenticated evidence instances designed for long-term persistence. These evidence instances may be maintained on archival media designed for extended preservation and held in safekeeping by regulated custodians in multiple jurisdictions. Each authenticated instance may also be mapped to a Digital Twin and persisted through compatible distributed governance platforms operating within the IGF System™. Where applicable, FlexGIA™ interests and associated CERs may also be registered through recognised international registry platforms operating under qualified trust and custodial arrangements. 

Exchange Traded Fund Compatibility Each FlexGIA™ CER may be allocated to one or more compatible Exchange Traded Fund (“ETF”) structures where permitted under the governing contractual documentation and applicable regulatory requirements. This framework is designed to facilitate future liquidity, diversification and broader institutional participation while preserving the contractual integrity of the underlying FlexGIA™ Series.
