This episode of “The Standard Formula” podcast launches the “Back to Basics” series, which will comprehensively cover the U.K.’s Solvency II regime. For the premiere episode, Skadden partner Rob Chaplin and associate David Wang delve into the intricacies of own funds, a core concept of Solvency II.
Own funds constitute an insurer's regulatory capital, comprising both balance sheet and limited off-balance sheet items. This discussion covers the three classification categories for own funds: Tier 1 (highest quality), Tier 2 (middle) and Tier 3 (broader spectrum and flexibility). Mr. Chaplin and Mr. Wang outline the specific requirements for each tier. Two characteristics of own funds fundamental to understanding them, namely permanent availability and subordination, are explored in detail.
The episode also includes a discussion of regulatory approvals and notifications and the implications of these concepts on the Lloyd's Insurance Market.
