This episode of the “The Standard Formula” podcast is the fourth in the “Back to Basics” series focusing on developments in the Solvency II regime. Skadden partner Rob Chaplin is joined by colleague Feargal Ryan to explore the complexities of group supervision under Solvency II.
Rob and Feargal begin with a discussion of the circumstances under which the U.K. Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) rules on group supervision will apply to a group, followed by a look at methods for calculating group solvency. They also cover how own funds requirements operate at a group level, and conclude the discussion by considering the application of group supervision at group level under various scenarios.

Words of wisdom: “For group supervision purposes and group solvency purposes, only Switzerland, Bermuda and the member states of the European Union are deemed equivalent to the U.K. However, it is important to note that no reciprocal determinations have been made by the European Union, which means that member states of the European Union cannot rely on group supervision exercised by the PRA in respect of European Union Solvency II groups that have an ultimate U.K. parent company.”
