Will Solvency II improve the resilience of the insurance sector?

28 September 2015

Brussels, Radisson Blu Brussels Central

On Monday 28 September 2015, Avantage Reply will sponsor the CFA event on Solvency II.

Over 13 years in the making, the European directive Solvency II will come into force on 1st January 2016.
This directive is not only reshaping the insurance industry itself, it also impacts how insurers interact with asset managers, clients, supervisory authorities, shareholders and investors. Avantage Reply is pleased to invite you to this event which will address the following questions:

• Will the cost of implementing Solvency II be compensated by improved competition and resilience of the insurance sector?
• How can national supervisory authorities ensure a harmonized implementation of the prudential framework for insurers across Europe?
• How to balance the need to respond to the demand of the market and the real economy and the aim of ensuring the resilience of the system in the context of low interest rates for instance?
• How will Solvency II affect the return on equity of European insurers compared to their international peers?
• Will the Solvency II regulation be outdated by the time of its implementation?

This event is a great opportunity to hear the views of a panel of expert speakers in this particular issue before opening the debate.
