1 Reporting requirements under Solvency II move forward FS Regulatory Centre of Excellence 9 vember 2011 Summary Latest proposals from EIOPA provide insurers with a largely stabilised package of quantitative reporting requirements. This should give sufficient certainty for insurers to move their reporting workstreams forward as they prepare for implementation. On 8 vember 2011 EIOPA published its draft proposals on qualitative and quantitative reporting ( the proposals ) under Solvency II. These proposals define the content and format of insurers' Solvency II reporting both on a private basis to their supervisors and for public reporting to all stakeholders. This represents an important milestone in the development of the Solvency II regime. The proposals are open for comment until 20 January 2012 and EIOPA plans to finalise reporting requirements in the summer of Whilst there remain a small number of areas of uncertainty these proposals follow an intensive period of informal consultations where EIOPA gathered stakeholder feedback and revised its proposed requirements. In addition, EIOPA is currently working on additional data requirements for financial stability purposes another consultation is expected from December 2011 on these additional requirements. National supervisors may propose additional reporting requirements to deal with matters specific to their countries. The form and content of narrative reporting will be specified in delegated acts which are not expected to be formally published until the spring of However, EIOPA s consultation does contain a number of proposed guidelines that will underpin those narrative reporting requirements. Development of the proposals EIOPA s predecessor body, CEIOPS, originally consulted on proposals for Solvency II reporting in Consultation Paper 58 (CP 58) published in mid During 2010 and 2011 EIOPA conducted two rounds of informal consultations with a number of key stakeholders and the current proposals constitute the result of almost two years of discussions and consideration of the requirements. As a result EIOPA considers that the proposals currently being consulted on represent a largely stabilized package on topics which have already been consulted on. The clear implication is that EIOPA is not anticipating a need to make any sweeping changes as a result of the current round of consultation. 1

2 Scope and content of the proposals Regular reporting under Solvency II includes both private reporting to supervisors in the form of the Regular Supervisory Report (RSR) and public reporting to all stakeholders in the Solvency and Financial Condition Report (SFCR) Overall, SFCR and RSR combine quantitative and qualitative information about the risk position and related capital adequacy with a description of risk management processes. EIOPA s consultation deals with all aspects of quantitative reporting under Solvency II. However, in respect of qualitative reporting the proposals are largely limited to the provision of guidelines on interpretation of the requirements that will be set out in delegated acts. Quantitative reporting Quantitative reporting takes the form of the Quantitative Reporting Templates (QRTs). The QRTs are a set of 62 forms of which up to 52 will be required to be completed by individual insurers and up to 38 by insurance groups. The QRTs capture information on balance sheet, assets, Solvency Capital Requirement (SCR), Minimum Capital Requirement (MCR), technical provisions, variation analysis and reinsurance. Each form is to be completed as prescribed by EIOPA. To that effect log files with explanation for completion are attached to each form. There have been a number of key policy choices that EIOPA has addressed in bringing forward these proposals and these were set out in the impact assessment that accompanied the proposals. Stakeholders have previously commented on the lack of guidance on how to apply the principle of proportionality and materiality to the completion of the QRTs. EIOPA has sought to address the issue by creating thresholds for detail reporting on certain forms and also by reducing public disclosure requirements on many forms. The table below sets out some of the more significant decisions made by EIOPA in response to stakeholders concerns: Policy area Proposed approach Rationale and comment Detailed list of assets Detailed lists of assets will be required for all insurers on an annual basis. Full quarterly reporting of detailed lists of assets will be required sufficient to ensure coverage of at least: 90% of the total value of investments at European level; and 75% of the total value of investments at a national level. Insurers not required to produce full detailed assets lists on a quarterly basis will instead have to submit a summary. During the pre-consultation it was proposed that larger or more complex insurers would be required to provide detailed listings of assets on a quarterly basis and so EIOPA s proposals represent a development of that theme. EIOPA s view is that the detailed reporting of investments will provide information that is essential for both micro and macro-supervision. EIOPA s intention is that this detailed list will be used to give a full vision of the risks in the investment portfolio, to reduce the need for ad hoc requests to assess specific exposures of certain undertakings, to perform any necessary aggregation and analysis at undertaking level, to enable marketwide analysis. The proposals do not set out specific criteria as to how the individual insurers that will be exempted from full quarterly disclosure will be selected to ensure that the European and national thresholds are met. Underwriting vs. accident year for reporting of claims development EIOPA is not proposing to mandate whether claims development triangles are prepared on an accident year or an underwriting year basis. However, it proposed allowing national supervisors the flexibility to specify the basis of reporting at a national level. EIOPA believes this decision will generally allow insurers to maintain their current approach. Where issues arise due to groups using different bases in different territories it is envisaged that this will be dealt with through the college of supervisors. 2

3 Policy area Proposed approach Rationale and comment Reporting of reported but not settled (RBNS) claims Quarterly balance sheet reporting RBNS claims will be reported both in claims triangles and in a columnar format. Insurers will be required to submit a quarterly balance sheet in cases where the reconciliation reserve cannot be explained sufficiently by the information on assets and liabilities that is reported in other quarterly templates. The approach is consistent with that proposed during pre-consultations. EIOPA believes that both forms of reporting are needed and that the marginal costs of reporting the data in two formats will not be significant. In the most recent pre-consultation this was an open issue and so EIOPA have now clarified their position. The information already available in quarterly templates is expected to explain the largest part of the reconciliation reserve. EIOPA is seeking comments from stakeholders on what quantitative threshold should be applied in determining when a quarterly balance sheet will be required. Scope of public disclosure Ring-fenced funds (RFF) Variation Analysis EIOPA is proposing that the following templates are disclosed annually as part of the SFCR: Balance sheet Premiums, claims & expenses Own funds Solvency capital requirement Minimum capital requirement (solo reporting ) Technical provisions (solo reporting ) Entities in scope of the group (group reporting ) Risk concentration (group ) EIOPA is proposing requiring reporting, at a solo level, for each material ring-fence fund of templates detailing the following: Balance sheet Technical provisions Solvency capital requirement Own funds Variation analysis templates will be privately reported to the supervisor on an annual basis. reporting will be required in the first year following Solvency II implementation. The templates will comprise a summary together with templates dealing movements in own funds arising from: Investments Technical provisions Own debt and other items The templates to be used for annual public disclosure are in some cases the versions used for quarterly reporting to supervisors (which contain less detail that the annual templates) and in some other cases are simplified versions of what will be reported privately to supervisors. EIOPA s proposals represent an extension to what was proposed at pre-consultation when own funds and assets were proposed for reporting at the level of the ring-fenced fund. EIOPA would welcome feedback on these proposals. quantitative guidance is given to assist in determining whether a ring-fenced fund is material. These templates have been extensively modified since the pre-consultation. Therefore EIOPA is particularly interested in stakeholder comments on these templates. 3

4 Policy area Proposed approach Rationale and comment Risk Concentration The QRTs consulted on include a template in respect of risk concentration reporting. However, EIOPA indicates that its initial preference is to require qualitative narrative information (with figures included) for risk concentration in the early years of Solvency II s implementation with a quantitative template being introduced at a later date in light of experience. The quantitative template consulted on is a development of the version contained in the preconsultation. However, it appears EIOPA is not minded to mandate its use, at least in the early years of Solvency II. This is an area in which EIOPA is seeking specific feedback. Appendix 1 to this document contains a full list of QRTs with details on their applicability, frequency and type of disclosure. Qualitative reporting Qualitative reporting takes the form of the narrative included in the SFCR and the RSR. The required form and content for qualitative reporting in the SFCR and RSR will be set out in the Level 2 delegated acts. The latest draft of the delegated acts was submitted by the European Commission to the European Parliament at the end of October However, these remain a private document and it is not expected that they will be formally published until the Spring of EIOPA s consultation set out a number of guidelines surrounding the preparation of the narrative reporting in the RSR and SFCR which are aimed at achieving harmonisation to the extent that further clarification and detail to the delegated acts are necessary, the guidelines do not cover every aspect of narrative reporting. Given that the delegated acts have not been published (and are not expected to be published until after the consultation period closes) it is arguably hard to form a definitive view as to whether EIOPA s guidelines are necessary or sufficient to achieve their stated purpose. The proposals comprise 27 guidelines dealing with narrative reporting in the SFCR including together with a further 16 guidelines specific to the RSR. These are grouped under the standard headings to be used in the RSR and SFCR being: Business & performance Systems of governance Risk profile Valuation for solvency purposes Capital management Other guidelines EIOPA has also proposed guidelines as to what predefined events would trigger a requirement to report to the supervisor outside of the RSR process and what should be include in insurers disclosure policy. Areas of uncertainty Additional reporting requirements EIOPA is currently working on additional reporting requirements under Solvency II over and above the proposals discussed in this paper. EIOPA is expected to consult on these additional requirements from December It is expected that the additional requirements will deal with information needed to analyse the financial stability of the system as a whole. In addition, national supervisors may propose additional reporting requirements to deal with matters specific to their countries. Areas where EIOPA is requesting feedback The current proposals have been subject to extensive discussion and two rounds of private consultations. Although feedback is expected on the whole set of templates there are a few areas where EIOPA particularly expects feedback from stakeholders. Some of those areas include: Variation analysis templates these have been heavily revised since previous private consultation exercises Own Funds Reporting treatment of eligible own funds and treatment of reconciliation reserve Balance sheet reporting thresholds for exempting quarterly reporting of the balance sheet. 4

5 Reporting risk concentration for groups should this be done in narrative reporting instead rather than through a quantitative template? Format of reporting for ring-fenced funds Design of non-life catastrophe risk templates Content of guidelines on narrative reporting Audit requirements? The proposals do not include any mention of a potential assurance requirement over Solvency II reporting. It is understood the European Commission is considering leaving the decision as to whether to impose any audit requirements over Solvency II reporting at the discretion of each Member State. Deadlines for reporting Reporting deadlines for SFCR, RSR and the annexed quantitative reporting templates (annual and quarterly) are to be determined on the Level 2 implementing measures. These measures are still being developed and are expected to be published in draft in the spring of However, our current understanding is that the reporting deadlines are likely to be as follows: Element of reporting Frequency Deadline for reporting periods ending Solo SFCR and either full or summary RSR (including annexed quantitative templates) Single group-wide SFCR (where prepared) SFCR (not incorporating solo SFCRs) and group full or summary RSR (including annexed quantitative templates) On or before 31 December 2014: 20 weeks During 2015: 18 weeks During 2016: 16 weeks After 1 January 2017: 14 weeks On or before 31 December 2014: 26 weeks During 2015: 24 weeks During 2016: 22 weeks After 1 January 2017: 20 weeks Quarterly quantitative reporting templates Quarterly On or before 31 December 2014: 8 weeks During 2015: 7 weeks During 2016: 6 weeks After 1 January 2017: 5 weeks What s next? The current proposals will have to fit in within the wider Solvency II body of legislation which is still being developed. EIOPA is aware that a number of adjustments to the draft delegated acts and implementing measures to Solvency II will have to be considered in the reporting templates. Whilst, overall EIOPA does not believe that any adjustments would be material, it does highlight some areas that might give rise to adjustments to the templates including: Counter- cyclical premium and matching premium; Treatment of Expected Profits Included in Future Premiums (EPIFP); Treatment of participations; Treatment of ring-fenced funds; Treatment of branches of 3 rd country (non-eea) insurers; Changes to certain SCR modules; and Change in financial stability related analysis. EIOPA has moved ahead with publishing these proposals before the adoption of the Omnibus II Directive and the publication of the Level 2 measures in order to provide insurers with some extra certainty as to the reporting requirements under Solvency II. Up until now, many insurers have been waiting for more certainty before fully engaging resources in the reporting element of their Solvency II implementation plans. EIOPA is clear that these current set of proposals should form the basis for that preparation. The proposals are open for comments until 20 January 2012 and it will be the last time insurers will have a 5

6 chance to influence the reporting requirements under Solvency II. It is expected that EIOPA will finalise the requirements in the summer of 2012 and submit the technical standards to the European Commission for endorsement by September Contacts To gain deeper understandings of how the proposals on Solvency II reporting requirements affect your business contact: Name Telephone Jim Bichard Mike Vickery Kareline Daguer What do I need to do? To date, Solvency II reporting has tended to take a back seat to capital evaluation and risk management work streams for many European insurers due to the uncertainty around the requirements. EIOPA's publication removes some of this uncertainty and allows insurers to accelerate their implementation plans. The amount of work required should not be underestimated, as Solvency II reporting will be much more detailed and exhaustive compared to current requirements. Insurers should see this consultation, and the additional clarity it provides, as the much-needed trigger to get their reporting workstreams on track. The biggest challenge for most insurers will be the requirement to report to the regulator on a more frequent basis and in some areas to report information that has not previously been required. Finance functions may need to re-think their target operating model to enable faster reporting and enhanced integration with actuarial, risk and other departments. Insurers might wish to consider responding to these proposals, particularly in the areas highlighted as still under debate or where comments are sought in response to the impact assessment as these are perhaps where the chance to influence the outcome may be greatest. 6
