S.25.02 — Solvency Capital Requirement — for undertakings using the standard formula and partial internal model U.K.

General comments:

This section relates to opening and annual submission of information for individual entities, ring fenced–funds, matching adjustment portfolios and remaining part.

The components to be reported shall be agreed between national supervisory authorities and insurance and reinsurance undertakings.

Template SR.25.02 shall be reported by ring–fenced fund, matching adjustment portfolio and the remaining part for every undertaking under a partial internal model. This includes undertakings where a partial internal model is applied to a full ring–fenced fund and/or matching adjustment portfolio while the other ring–fenced funds and/or matching adjustment portfolios are under the standard formula. This template shall be reported for all sub–funds of a material RFF/MAP as identified in the second table of S.01.03.

For those undertakings under a partial internal model to which the adjustment due to the aggregation of the nSCR of RFF/MAP is applicable, where the entity has MAP or RFF (except those under the scope of Article 304 of Directive 2009/138/EC) when reporting at the level of the whole undertaking, the nSCR at risk module level and the loss–absorbing capacity (LAC) of technical provisions and deferred taxes to be reported shall be calculated as follows:

  • Where the undertaking applies the full adjustment due to the aggregation of the nSCR of the RFF/MAP at entity level: the nSCR is calculated as if no RFF and the LAC shall be calculated as the sum of the LAC across all RFF/MAP and remaining part;

  • Where the undertaking applies the Simplification at risk sub–module level to aggregate the nSCR of the RFF/MAP at entity level the the nSCR and LAC are calculated considering a direct summation at sub–module level method,

  • Where the undertaking applies the Simplification at risk module level to aggregate the nSCR of the RFF/MAP at entity level the nSCR and LAC are calculated considering a direct summation at module level method.

The adjustment due to the aggregation of the nSCR of the RFF/MAP at entity level shall be allocated (C0060) to the relevant risk modules (i.e. market risk, counterparty default risk, life underwriting risk, health underwriting risk and non–life underwriting risk) when calculated according to the standard formula. The amount to be allocated to each relevant risk module shall be calculated as follows:

  • , where

    adjustment

    =

    Adjustment calculated according to one of the three methods referred above

    BSCR′

    =

    Basic solvency capital requirement calculated according the information reported in this template

    nSCRint

    =

    nSCR for intangible assets risk according to the information reported in this template

  • Multiplication of this ‘q factor’ by the nSCR of each relevant risk module (i.e. market risk, counterparty default risk, life underwriting risk, health underwriting risk and non–life underwriting risk)

ITEMINSTRUCTIONS
Z0020Ring–fenced fund, matching adjustment portfolio or Remaining Part

Identifies whether the reported figures are with regard to a RFF, matching adjustment portfolio or to the remaining part. One of the options in the following closed list shall be used:

  • 1 — RFF/MAP

  • 2 — Remaining part

Z0030Fund/Portfolio number

When item Z0020 = 1, identification number for a ring fenced fund or matching adjustment portfolio. This number is attributed by the undertaking and must be consistent over time and with the fund/portfolio number reported in other templates.

When item Z0020 = 2, then report ‘0’

C0010Unique number of component

Unique number of each component agreed with their national supervisory authority to identify uniquely components from their model. This number shall always be used with the appropriate component description reported in each item. Where the partial internal model allow the same split by risk module as the one in the standard formula, the following numbers of components shall be used:

  • 1 — Market risk

  • 2 — Counterparty default risk

  • 3 — Life underwriting risk

  • 4 — Health underwriting risk

  • 5 — Non–life underwriting risk

  • 6 — Intangible asset risk

  • 7 — Operational risk

  • 8 — LAC Technical Provisions (negative amount)

  • 9 — LAC Deferred Taxes (negative amount)

Where standard formula risk modules cannot be reported, undertaking shall attribute a number to each component different from 1 to 7.

This number shall always be used with the appropriate component description reported in each item C0030. The numbers of the components shall be kept consistent over time.

C0020Components description

Identification, using free text, of each of the components that can be identified by the undertaking. These components shall be aligned with standard formula risk modules if possible according to the partial internal model. Each component shall be identified using a separate entry. Undertakings shall identify and report components consistently across different reporting periods, unless there has been some change to the internal model affecting the categories.

Loss–absorbing capacity of technical provisions and/or deferred taxes not embedded within components shall be reported as separated components.

C0030Calculation of the Solvency Capital Requirement

Amount of the capital charge for each component regardless of the method of calculation (either standard formula or partial internal model), after the adjustments for loss–absorbing capacity of technical provision and/or deferred taxes when they are embedded in the component calculation.

For the components Loss absorbing capacity (‘LAC’) of technical provisions and/or deferred taxes when reported as a separate component it shall be the amount of the loss–absorbing capacity (these amounts shall be reported as negative values)

For components calculated using the standard formula this cell represents the gross nSCR. For components calculated using the partial internal model, this represents the value considering the future management actions which are embedded in the calculation, but not those which are modelled as a separate component.

This amount shall fully consider diversification effects according to Article 304 of Directive 2009/138/EC where applicable where applicable.

When applicable, this cell does not include the allocation of the adjustment due to the aggregation of the nSCR of the RFF/MAP at entity level.

C0050Allocation from adjustments due to RFF and Matching adjustment portfoliosWhere applicable, part of the adjustment allocated to each risk module according to the procedure described in the general comments. This amount shall be positive.
C0060Consideration of the future management actions regarding technical provisions and/or deferred taxes

To identify if the future management actions relating to the loss absorbing capacity of technical provisions and/or deferred taxes are embedded in the calculation, the following closed list of options shall be used:

  • 1 — Future management actions regarding the loss–absorbing capacity of technical provisions embedded within the component

  • 2 — Future management actions regarding the loss–absorbing capacity of deferred taxes embedded within the component

  • 3 — Future management actions regarding the loss–absorbing capacity of technical provisions and deferred taxes embedded within the component

  • 4 — No embedded consideration of future management actions.

C0070Amount modelledFor each component this cell represents the amount calculated according to the partial internal model.
R0110/C0100Total of undiversified componentsSum of all components.
R0060/C0100Diversification

The total amount of the diversification among components reported in C0030.

This amount does not include diversification effects inside each component, which shall be embedded in the values reported in C0030.

This amount shall be reported as negative value.
