Solvency II preparatory phase

This page also provides the information to support EU insurance and reinsurance undertakings during the preparatory phase of Solvency II:

  • The Technical Information referred to in Article 77e(1) of the Directive 2009/138/EC;
  • ​The Technical Documentation explaining the inputs, assumptions and methodology applied in the calculation of the Technical Information, as envisaged in Recital 23 of the Delegated Regulation of Solvency II.

While the publication of this information is not compulsory until 2016, EIOPA has advanced its disclosure in order to help EU insurance and reinsurance undertakings to prepare for the implementation of Solvency II.
