On 6 May, the FSA published feedback received in response to its Discussion Paper 08/4 (the DP) which highlighted and explained key elements of the Solvency II regime with the aim of encouraging UK insurers to make preparations for its implementation. We reported on publication of the DP here.
The FSA is currently preparing a thematic review linked to its Internal Models Approvals Process. The review will provide feedback and observations on industry practice to firms on Internal Models, while assisting the FSA to plan the Approvals Process. Stage 1 will be produced by the FSA based on its own knowledge and is expected to be published in September 2009. Stage 2 will involve visits to a selection of insurers and reinsurers and other interested persons and is planned to begin in October 2009.
