Background

Disasters lead to significant losses and damages to properties. The government as an institution is certainly not immune to losses and damages in public infrastructures such as government centers, school buildings and facilities, roads, bridges, ports and airports. In November 2013, the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) made an initial estimate of P57.1 billion worth of damages in the government sector due to Typhoon Yolanda.1 Just recently, Super Typhoon Ompong left a total damage to public infrastructure amounting to P3.7 billion2 in the provinces of Cagayan, Pangasinan, and Zamboanga.

In the 2018 World Risk Report, the United Nations Institute for Environment and Human Security placed the Philippines among the top three countries with very high disaster risk index3 at 25.14%. The two nations that scored higher are Vanuatu (50.28%) and Tonga (29.42%). Other Asian countries with high disaster risk indices include Brunei Darussalam (18.82%), Cambodia (16.07%), Timor-Leste (16.05%), Japan (11.08%)

and Indonesia (10.36%). The Philippines is both exposed to natural and man-made disasters. Due to its geographical location, it is highly exposed to natural disasters such as tropical cyclones, storms, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions. Meanwhile, man-made disasters may include transport accidents, industrial accidents and terrorism.

One of the valuable components of disaster risk financing strategy to improve resiliency in times of catastrophe is to provide insurance cover for government properties. According to Insurance Commissioner Atty. Dennis B. Funa, the government’s insurance program is “the last line of defense” against severe natural disasters.4 During the period 2013-2017, the Government Service Insurance System (GSIS) paid a total of P3.7 billion as compensation for losses and damages to government properties from earthquake and typhoons alone. It was noted that Typhoon Yolanda had the highest loss of government assets indemnified at P1.3 billion (see Table 1) but as stated earlier, damage in the government sector could have exceeded P57.1 billion due to that catastrophic event.

legal Bases for governmenT properTy insurance

Republic Act No. 656 (RA 656) otherwise known as the “Property Insurance Law” was enacted on 16 June 1951 in support of government property insurance in the Philippines. It was created for the purpose of indemnifying or compensating the government for any damage to or loss of its properties due to fire, earthquake, storm, or other casualty. The law also established the Property Insurance Fund whose records and accounts shall be kept separate and distinct from other funds administered by GSIS.

Under RA 656, national, provincial, city, or municipal governments (except municipalities below 1st class) as well as government-owned-and-controlled corporations (GOCCs) are required to insure their assets and properties with the Fund against any insurable risks. The government agency concerned shall include in its annual appropriations the amount needed to pay for the insurance premiums of its properties. Government agencies are also required to advise GSIS regarding the inventory of their respective assets and properties with its corresponding values. Meanwhile, the GSIS is mandated to submit to the President an annual report on Fund operations.

According to GSIS, property insurance is currently classified into different categories (e.g. Fire, Engineering Works, Floater, Marine Cargo, Marine Hull, Motor Vehicle, Movable Comprehensive Insurance, Fine Arts and Aviation). The more common Fire Insurance covers office and school buildings, hospitals, public markets, farms including poultry and piggery sheds, warehouses, power plants, ports, airports, public cemetery, barangay halls, sports facilities, stadium and the like.

“Property floaters” on the other hand refer to movable properties such as heavy equipment, road rollers, dump trucks, garbage compactors (Type A); construction and drilling equipment, pumps, electronic toll booth equipment, generator sets (Type B); cart-wheel X-ray machines, medicine palletizing equipment (Type C); cell phones, communication equipment, firearms, computers, laptops (Type D); heavy vehicles regularly utilizing public roads such as garbage dump truck, smoke belching/environment testing vehicles (Type E). For more examples of insurable properties, please refer to Annex A.

Presidential Decree No. 245 amended RA 656 on 13 July 1973 to authorize GSIS to reinsure and accept reinsurance from local and foreign companies.5

5 The Property Insurance Fund was renamed as the General Insurance Fund.

6 Republic Act. No. 10607. (2013). “Section 97. An Act Strengthening the Insurance Industry, Further Amending Presidential Decree No. 612, Otherwise Known as the Insurance Doe, as Amended by Presidential Decree No.s 1141, 1280, 1455, 1460, 1814 and 1981, and Batas Pambansa Blg. 874, and For Other Purposes”.

According to the Insurance Code, a contract of reinsurance exists when an insurer procures a 3rd person to insure him against loss or liability founded on reason of the original insurance.6 However, there had been cases where insurable assets and properties remained uninsured due to the limited capacity of private domestic non-life insurance companies to accept the reinsurance of large risks from the GSIS, and limited capacity of local non-life insurance companies to absorb the reinsurance to be ceded by the GSIS.

Administrative Order (AO) No. 33 was issued on 25 August 1987 for the following reasons: (a) non-insurance of government properties, (b) insurance with private companies contrary to RA 656, and (c) under-insurance or inadequate insurance cover. Due to non-insurance and under-insurance, government agencies were deprived of adequate and reliable protection against loss and damage to properties while the General Insurance Fund was bereft of substantial premium income that should have formed part of the Fund. It was noted that AO No. 33 was silent about penal sanctions or disciplinary actions in case of non-compliance.

On the other hand, Administrative Order No. 141 dated 12 August 1994 was issued to provide guidance for privatized GOCCs and Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) projects. It ordered all Heads, Presidents, General Managers and other key officials of privatized corporations as well as proponents and implementers of government BOT projects to insure with or secure insurance or bonds from GSIS. No insurable interest of government shall be obtained from any entity, enterprise or any juridical person other than GSIS. Again, punitive measures were not indicated in AO 141.

The Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) Memorandum Circular No. 2016-63 dated 11 May 2016 was issued by the DILG to remind

all local government units (LGUs) to insure their properties with the GSIS in compliance with the Property Insurance Law. As in previous Executive issuances, there were no disciplinary sanctions for non-compliance which could compel strict adherence to existing policies on property insurance.

Administrative Order No. 4 was issued on 7 August 2017 following a Commission on Audit (COA) report about agencies whose properties, assets, facilities, and other insurable interests were not insured, or were substantially under-insured. An Inter-Agency Committee on Government Property Insurance (IAC-GPI) was created to formulate the necessary policies, rules and regulations to ensure that key properties, assets and other insurable interest of the Government are insured comprehensively and adequately. The IAC-GPI is comprised of the Department of Finance, Office of the Executive Secretary, Department of Budget and Management, Insurance Commission and the GSIS. The Bureau of Treasury was also appointed to provide the necessary technical and administrative support services to the IAC-GPI.

Specifically, the IAC-GPI is tasked to (a) develop monitoring and reporting mechanisms; (b) assess the management and utilization of the General Insurance Fund, (c) review and evaluate government properties, and other insurable interests which are actively insured; (d) define and determine high-risk government properties and assets, and other public facilities which should be insured annually; and (e) propose appropriate legislative measures or Executive issuances. An Interim Report had already been prepared but the Terminal Report has yet to be submitted to the President as required under AO No. 4.

Commission on Audit (COA) Circular No. 2018-002 dated 31 May 2018 was similarly issued by COA to prescribe among others the submission of a Property Inventory Form. Noticeably, Section 5.5 states that “failure on the part of the agency officials concerned

As of October 2018, only 89% (1,987 out of 2,224 government agencies) are insured with the GSIS. Note that only GOCCs and provinces have 100% insurance coverage. Meanwhile, property protection is lowest among second to sixth class municipalities (82.12%). According to GSIS, the lone city which is

It was also learned that the number of local government units with GSIS property insurance as of 2018 went down from 1,542 in 2017 to 1,495 in 2018—or a decrease of forty-seven (47) LGUs. (see Table 2).

Promoting Disaster resilency through ProPerty insurance

In a discussion paper titled “Review of Philippine Government Disaster Financing for Recovery and Reconstruction”, Philippine Institute of Development Studies (PIDS) consultant Deanna T. Villacin raised three (3) issues regarding GSIS insurance: non-coverage of insurance, under-insurance and lengthy claims processing. Her findings are further validated by the Inter-Agency Committee on Government Property Insurance (IAC-GPI).

Non-Coverage. Villacin defines non-coverage as failure of governments to insure with the GSIS critical public infrastructures such as schools, roads, bridges. For instance, not all properties under the Department of Information and Communication Technology (DICT) are covered with insurance. As indicated in Table 2 earlier, only 87.2% of LGUs are insured as of October 2018 while NGAs and State Colleges and Universities (SUCs) have 94.9% and 97.3% coverage, respectively.

In its Interim Report, the IAC-GPI also revealed that strategically-important assets are not covered by insurance. Such assets include the following: (a) national government’s roads and bridges under the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) estimated to be worth P1.5 trillion, (b) transportation systems under the Department of Transportation and Civil Aviation and Authority of the Philippines, and (c) Department of Education (DepEd) school buildings. Schools owned and operated by local government are however insured. Under-insurance. Another key issue raised by Villacin was under-insurance of government properties wherein the sum insured is less than the value covered, or insurance coverage of the property or asset is inadequate. However, there is no currently available data on the extent of under-insurance.

In 2016, the GSIS together with the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) launched the data collection survey in order to strengthen risk

issues and challenges wiTh The currenT legal framework

information gathering and boost Philippine disaster resiliency. Through these efforts, disaster risks will be appropriately-priced, which in turn could generate savings in insurance premiums as uncertainty of the price is minimized.

The IAC GPI likewise disclosed that the assets of Department of Health (DOH), Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD), and National Irrigation Authority (NIA) are either under-insured or are not covered by insurance at all.

According to Villacin, the following improvements are being taken specifically: (a) conduct of general inventory of government assets; b) educational caravans to help information dissemination on GSIS Insurance Program; (c) DILG monitoring of LGUs’ compliance with RA 656 including the preference of first-class municipalities of securing insurance with private companies instead of the GSIS; and (d) review of comparative premium rates of GSIS relative to private sector as well as turnaround times, particularly in handling claims.

The use of replacement cost instead of depreciated values when procuring insurance of government properties and assets is also being considered. However, the downside of higher insurance value (based on replacement cost) is the requirement for higher premium payment which LGUs and even NGAs and GOCCs may not be able to afford.

Lengthy Claims Processing. One of the factors that hinder governments to insure with GSIS is the length of time and tediousness of the claims process. According to Villacin, anecdotal evidence shows that due to the monopoly being enjoyed by GSIS in insuring government properties and assets, they do not have enough incentive to fast-track pay-out of claims to insured government agencies.

In July 2017, the DOF, GSIS, World Bank, and the United Kingdom Department for International Development pilot-tested the parametric risk insurance program to cover properties of twenty-five (25) provinces which are considered most prone

to catastrophe. Premium payments were financed through the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management (NDRRM) Fund. This type of insurance makes payment upon the occurrence of a trigger event after satisfying pre-agreed characteristics such as typhoon intensity or earthquake magnitude. And since claims are based on parametric triggers and not on actual losses which take more time to evaluate, payments can materialize within weeks unlike the traditional insurance which involves several months for claims processing.

way forward

The 2017-2022 Philippine Development Plan (PDP) identifies LGU Property Insurance as one of its priority legislations, in order to support a sound, stable and supportive macroeconomic environment. Specifically, RA 656 will have to be amended to make it mandatory for all LGUs including 2nd to 6th class municipalities to insure their properties.

At the House of Representatives, House Bill No. 4732 was filed by Rep. Joey Sarte Salceda in the 17th Congress which seeks to repeal the Property Insurance Law of 1951. Among others, HB No. 4732 requires 2nd to 6th class municipalities to have their properties and assets insured with the GSIS. At present, only national government agencies, GOCCs and first-class municipalities are covered by RA 656.

HB 4732 also expands the definition of “property” to include furniture, fixtures, equipment, improvements, and buildings which are being rented by government. It reiterates the need for inclusion of the amount of insurance premiums in the annual appropriations law.

One potential source of payment for insurance premiums is the Local Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Fund (LDRRMF) created under Republic Act No. 10121, also known as the Philippine Disaster Risk Reduction Management Act. Section 21 thereof provides that “not less than five percent (5%) of the estimated revenue from regular sources shall be set aside as the LDRRMF to support disaster risk management activities such as, but not limited to, pre-

disaster preparedness programs including training, purchasing life-saving rescue equipment, supplies and medicines, for post-disaster activities, and for the payment of premiums on calamity insurance.”

The Salceda bill also provides penal provisions such as: (a) fine of less than five thousand pesos (P5,000.00) nor more than twenty thousand pesos (P20,000.00) or imprisonment of not less than six (6) years and one (1) day to twelve (12) years, or both for failure or refusal to comply with the provisions of this Act or with the rules and regulations adopted by the GSIS; (b) Administrative liability or suspension from the service without pay from six (6) months to one (1) year for failure, refusal, or delay of payment, turnover, settlement or delivery of accounts due the GSIS within sixty (60) days from the time that the same shall have been due and demandable by government officials and employees involved in the payment of premiums; and (c) absolute perpetual disqualification from holding public office and from practicing any profession or calling licensed by government for failure to settle the premiums payable or deliverable to the GSIS within sixty (60) days from the date they should have been paid by any employee, among others.

On the implementation side, initiatives such as the multi-lateral parametric risk insurance program10 that would expedite the claims process, the use of replacement cost instead of depreciated values, and education caravans on the Insurance Program of GSIS should also be pursued.

Finally, it is high-time to make property insurance mandatory for the private sector much like compulsory insurance upon registration of vehicle. In Iceland, insurance for natural disasters for all real estates and any movables covered by general policies which include fire insurance are mandatory through its Natural Catastrophe Insurance of Iceland.11 In Romania and Turkey, compulsory home insurance has
