Solvency II
The European Union Solvency II Directive is due to be implemented by 2012. Covering over 30 countries it is the biggest ever exercise in establishing a single set of rules governing insurer creditworthiness and risk management.
For companies its impact is far-reaching. It is not simply about the technical calculation of capital reserves, but also about each company's approach to risk management - from strategic decision-making to ensuring that all employees understand their responsibility for risk.
