Question
In Document 32025L0002, "Directive (EU) 2025/2 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 November 2024 amending Directive 2009/138/EC as regards proportionality, quality of supervision, reporting, long-term guarantee measures, macro-prudential tools, sustainability risks and group and cross-border supervision, and amending Directives 2002/87/EC and 2013/34/EU (Text with EEA relevance)", a new methodology to compute the volatility adjustment is presented. In it, a parameter called CSSR is introduced, which is defined as the credit spread sensitivity ratio, and taking values between 0, and 1. How could this parameter be precisely defined and computed? Is the duration of the assets divided by the duration of the technical provisions an suitable credit spread sensitivity parameter for the volatility adjustment computation?
EIOPA answer
This question has been rejected because it does not relate to the practical application or implementation of the legal framework covered by this Q&A process. While the Directive (EU) 2025/2 entered into force on 28 January 2025, Member States have until 29 January 2027 to transpose the Directive’s provisions into national law. Additionally, related delegated acts and technical standards shall be adopted before application.
