ANREV is pleased to invite you to join a webinar session on 25 November 2014 (Tuesday).

Summary
 
European insurance groups are the largest institutional investors in Europe's financial markets and have a significant role in long term investment globally.
 
Solvency II is the new European prudential regulatory regime for insurers due to come into force on 1 January 2016. The new regime takes a completely different approach to regulation from the current regime and, in particular, in relation to the investments backing insurers' liabilities and capital requirements.  Instead of prescribing admissible assets and counterparty and asset limits as is the case currently, it adopts a more permissive "prudent investor regime" but, also introduces a system of stress testing asset valuations, effectively resulting in capital charges on the insurer for holding different types of assets depending on the risks inherent in that asset.  Fund managers and others hoping to attract insurance company investors should be aware of structures and investments likely to be attractive to insurance company clients in this respect.
