Solvency II Directive 2009
Solvency II Directive 20092009/138/EC is a Directive in European Union law that codifies and harmonises the EU insurance regulation. Primarily this concerns the amount of capital that EU insurance companies must hold to reduce the risk of insolvency. Following an EU Parliament vote on the Omnibus II Directive on 11 March 2014, Solvency II came into effect on 1 January 2016. This date had been previously pushed back many times. Aims EU insurance legislation aims to unify a single EU insurance market and enhance consumer protection. The third-generation Insurance Directives established an "EU passport" (single licence) for insurers to operate in all member states if they fulfilled EU conditions.

Political implications of Solvency II A number of the large Life Insurers in the UK are unhappy with the way the le ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
