“The Solvency Capital Requirement, or SCR, is designed to protect policyholders by helping to make sure that insurers can survive difficult periods and pay claims as they fall due.”
In this episode of "The Standard Formula" podcast, Rob Chaplin, host and head of Skadden’s Europe Financial Institutions Group, is joined by colleague Will Adams as they take an in-depth look at the Solvency Capital Requirement, one of Solvency II’s most important and complex provisions. The discussion covers the SCR’s key features, risk modules, how it’s calculated and its relationship with the Minimum Capital Requirement (MCR). They also discuss the standard formula (for an in-depth discussion of technical provisions, listen to the previous episode).
