Review of updated Eiopa quantitative reporting templates (QRTs) Introduction On 9 July 2012 the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA) published the final report on its public consultation on the reporting and disclosure requirements under Solvency II. The report includes: Updated package of Quantitative Reporting Templates (QRTs) Updated LOGs Updated summary documents Comments template The above documents can be accessed through the following link: EIOPA website (Final Report section). EIOPA emphasises that the on-going discussions related to the Omnibus II Directive and the future Implementing Measures (Level 2) are expected to lead to further changes in the reporting requirements. The design or structure of the templates may also be affected by the development of the respective IT reporting standards. However, EIOPA confirmed that the updated reporting package is stable and can be used in the implementation of Pillar III. EIOPA has indicated that changes arising from Omnibus II and the Implementing Measures are not expected to be major and may potentially include amendments in the following templates: Scope of the quarterly reporting Own funds Solvency Capital Requirement (SCR) specific risk modules Life Technical Provisions Activity by country Templates applicable to Ring Fenced Funds Financial stability The QRTs include information required for financial stability monitoring purposes. Information for financial stability is required for all undertakings with more than EUR 12billion in total assets in the Solvency II balance sheet, hence this will apply at Lloyd’s level. The Solvency II returns being developed in the Core Market Returns system will be amended where necessary to include any information required for financial stability. Underwriting v Accident Year EIOPA has indicated that where undertakings are required to report data on an underwriting year or accident year basis, this will be done in accordance with the convention (if any) eventually required at national level by the National Supervisory Authority responsible for the supervision. Lloyd’s has indicated strongly to the FSA that the market would prefer to continue reporting on an underwriting year basis. QRTS - Key changes Form Comment C1 – Balance sheet Investment funds no longer required to be reported by various types of funds K1 – Activity by country “Claims paid” has been changed to “claims incurred”. Previously reporting was required for claims paid, gross of salvage and subrogation but this requirement has been changed to claims incurred, net of salvage and subrogation Similar to K1 above, claims paid (gross of salvage and subrogation) has been changed to claims incurred (net of salvage and subrogation) A1A/A1Q - Cover Expenses paid changed to expenses incurred – All the expenses are now required to be reported on incurred basis B1 – Own Funds There is an added section at the end of the template on “excess of assets over liabilities – attribution of valuation differences” B2B/B2C – SCR Reporting of Solvency Capital Requirement split into Gross and Net SCR. E1 – Non-life Technical Provisions E2 – Projection of future cash flows (Best Estimate – Non-life) E3 – Non-Life insurance claims information E4 – Movements of RBNS Claims Split of cash in-flows and cash out-flows also required for Best Estimate of Premium Provisions (Gross) Split of cash in-flows and cash out-flows also required for Best Estimate of Premium Provisions (Gross) Requirement for the salvage and subrogation triangle for claims paid and Reported But Not Settled claims (RBNS) dropped Gross claims paid and RBNS claims are now required net of salvage and subrogation Requirement to report information by material currency has been dropped. Reporting is required by line of business and for aggregated currencies converted to GBP Next Steps We expect managing agents to update their gap analysis based on these updated templates Omnibus II Directive is expected to be finalised by end of this year Implementing measures and technical standards are expected to be finalised next year An update shall be provided at the Supervisory Reporting and Disclosure workshops in November 2012
