AGM and Solvency UK Taskforce - Navigating the way through uncharted waters

The PRA has revised the regulatory rules around Matching Adjustment to a more principle based regime which creates more investment flexibility, but also creates some uncertainty around implementation as there is room for interpretation.  The SUK taskforce has been discussing and publishing articles to help practitioners navigate their way through the new rules.

This session will summarise the key areas of the rules where there are multiple ways to interpret the rules and summarise the main options the SUK taskforce have identified.  It will discuss how the new MA eligibility rules are around assets with highly predictable cashflows could enable more investment in particular asset classes due to the more flexible eligibility rules.  Will there be the increase in investment in productive finance anticipated from the reforms?

Lastly we will summarise what the new rules mean for the UK's competitiveness in the international insurance market - is the UK an attractive destination for insurance liabilities or do warmer destinations still have the competitive edge?

The speakers are:

  • Richard Schneider
  • Floring Ginghina
  • Graham Cornish  

The session will start with the SIAS AGM and be followed by an open Q&A session.
