This section relates to annual disclosure of information for individual entities.

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

ITEM INSTRUCTIONS
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 disclosed 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 — Loss absorbing capacity (‘LAC’) of Technical Provisions (negative amount)

  • 9 — LAC Deferred Taxes (negative amount)

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

This number shall always be used with the appropriate component description disclosed 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 disclosed as separated components.

[F1C0030 Calculation 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 of technical provisions and/or deferred taxes when disclosed as a separate component it shall be the amount of the loss–absorbing capacity (these amounts shall be disclosed 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.

These cells include the allocation of the adjustment due to the aggregation of the nSCR of the RFF/MAP at entity level.]

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. Therefore, the amount calculated with the Standard Formula should be the difference between the amounts disclosed in C0040 and C0060.
[F1C0090]USP

For those components calculated according to the standard formula where undertaking specific parameters have been applied, one of the following options shall be used:

  • For life underwriting risk:

    • Increase in the amount of annuity benefits

    • None

  • For health underwriting risk:

    • Increase in the amount of annuity benefits

    • Standard deviation for NSLT health premium risk

    • Standard deviation for NSLT health gross premium risk

    • Adjustment factor for non–proportional reinsurance

    • Standard deviation for NSLT health reserve risk

    • None

  • For non–life underwriting risk:

    • Standard deviation for non–life premium risk

    • Standard deviation for non–life gross premium risk

    • Adjustment factor for non–proportional reinsurance

    • Standard deviation for non–life reserve risk

    • None

In any case, if more than one specific parameter is used, report them separated by comas.

[F1C0120]Simplifications

For those components calculated according to the standard formula where simplifications have been applied, the risk sub–modules of each risk module for which a simplified calculation method has been used should be identified

If simplified calculation methods for more than one risk sub–module have been used within one risk module, report them separated by comas.
