The European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA) published today a potential macroprudential approach to the low interest rate environment in the Solvency II context.
The aim of this publication is to contribute to the discussion on the possible need to develop a macroprudential framework in the insurance sector to promote financial stability in a Solvency II environment.
 
The following three objectives to be targeted by supervisory authorities in the current low interest rate environment are addressed:

The Central Bank of Ireland has published a feedback statement on Consultation Paper 92 Domestic Actuarial Regime and related Governance Requirements under Solvency II.

The consultation period closed on 29 May 2015.

The International Actuarial Association (IAA) is pleased to announce the publication of the paper “Deriving Value from ORSA - Board Perspective” developed by the Joint ORSA Subcommittee of the IAA’s Insurance Regulation and Enterprise and Financial Risk Committees.

The Society’s ERM Committee has responded to the Institute & Faculty of Actuaries consultation on the regulation of Chief Risk Officer roles under Solvency II.

The ERM Committee submission is available here.

On 10th October 2014, the European Commission adopted a Delegated Act containing implementing rules for Solvency II. This will enter into force once the European Parliament and Council have both approved it, following their scrutiny, for which a maximum period of 6 months can be taken.

The Central Bank of Ireland has published the article  “Reinsurance in Ireland: Development and Issues”  from the Central Bank’s Quarterly Bulletin for Q3 2014.
