Key investment considerations | Robust capital and solvency position
*excl. D&A: banks, IORP’s, Non-EEA
• Solvency II framework is still evolving; parameter changes (e.g. interest rate assumptions) make yearly comparison of full year run outcomes difficult
• Assumptions in our 2012 model are set conservative. Most recent proposals on the treatment of long-term guarantees will result in a significant increase in solvency levels for the life entities compared to the current full year run outcomes
31/12/2013 - in € billion 31/12/2012 - in € billion
19
SOLVENCY II FRAMEWORK IS EVOLVING
20
• Parameter changes give mere indication of outcomes of 2012 impact studies
• Based on the outcomes of the long-term guarantee assessment (LTGA) proposals have been drafted for the handling of long term guarantees in 2013, which supports finalising the Omnibus II directive in December
• Due to the delayed introduction of Solvency II, the Dutch government decided to implement additional regulation for Life insurers per 1 January 2014. The Theoretic Solvency Criterion (TSC) requires Dutch Life insures to test the effect of Solvency II shocks on the Solvency I balance sheet (‘Solvency 1.5’). This could have an impact on dividend payouts, if available capital is below TSC.
