Adapting to Change: How Solvency II is Shaping the Future of Captive Insurance


Listen Later

The regulatory landscape for captive insurance in the European Union is evolving, with Solvency II amendments bringing significant changes to capital requirements, proportionality, and reporting obligations. In this episode, Joel Appelbaum, chief content officer at IRMI and Captive.com, sits down with Alex Gedge, senior captive consultant at Hylant, to discuss what these updates mean for captives and how organizations can adapt.

Solvency II, introduced over a decade ago, was designed to enhance the financial stability of insurers operating within the European Union. However, its one-size-fits-all approach has long been a challenge for captives, which operate with distinct risk profiles compared to traditional insurers. The latest amendments introduce a more proportional regulatory framework, reducing capital burden and simplifying governance requirements for small and noncomplex undertakings. Alex provides insights into how captives can leverage these changes, including the benefits of the reduced cost-of-capital rate in risk margin calculations, strategies for adapting to evolving environmental, social, and governance regulations, and how captives can position themselves for long-term success in a shifting regulatory environment.
