CHAPTER IGENERAL PROVISIONS AND SUPERVISORY REPORTING REQUIREMENTS

Article 3Currency

1

For the purposes of this Regulation ‘reporting currency’, unless otherwise required by the supervisory authority, shall be:

a

for individual reporting, the currency used for the preparation of the insurance or reinsurance undertaking's financial statements;

b

for group reporting, the currency used for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

2

Data points with the data type ‘monetary’ shall be reported in the reporting currency, which requires the conversion of any other currency into the reporting currency unless otherwise stated in this Regulation.

3

When expressing the value of any asset or liability denominated in a currency other than the reporting currency, the value shall be converted into the reporting currency as if the conversion had taken place at the closing rate on the last day for which the appropriate rate is available in the reporting period to which the asset or liability relates.

4

When expressing the value of any income or expense, the value shall be converted into the reporting currency using such basis of conversion as that used for accounting purposes.

5

The conversion into the reporting currency shall be calculated by applying the exchange rate from the same source as that used for the insurance or reinsurance undertaking's financial statements in the case of individual reporting or for the consolidated financial statements in the case of group reporting, unless otherwise required by the supervisory authority.
