Internal model
Pillar I, II & III
EIOPA value assertions

Our client, an international insurance group, uses a partial internal model for Solvency II which has been approved by the regulator. The SecondFloor eFrame Enterprise solutions manages the end-to-end reporting processes across the pillars. The solution is integrated with data sources and third party financial modelling solutions for specific categories.

Solvency II pillarsDepending on the approach taken by insurance companies efficient and effective reporting are in place. It is our vision that streamlined regulatory reporting can be achieved when the three pillars of Solvency II are supported by one platform. This requires a solution that can automate reporting processes, integrate financial models and data sources, manage data point models, offers quantitative and qualitative reporting templates, etc. A high requirements coverage across Pillar I, Pillar II and Pillar III is essential.

SecondFloor helped insurance companies across Europe to achieve the goal of 3 Pillars on one platform.

Pillar I

Support pillar one requirements with EIOPA general provisions and capital requirements. The implementation of the Standard Formula supports calculation of SCR/MCR. Whereby the challenge of collecting the required input is addressed with clear templates and technical validations.

Pillar III

Pillar 3 requirements are for disclosure and transparency in reporting to the regulator and public. Whilst technical specifications keep evolving the reporting timelines are steadily reduced. Companies are challenged to implement efficient and effective reporting process. We learn from our customers that good tools are essential to keep control.

Pillar II

The Pillar Two provisions are related mainly to the system of governance, including the own risk and solvency assessment (ORSA). The requirements aim to safeguard adequate risk management and governance. The system implementation ensures efficient and effective realization of EIOPA's requirements.

The EIOPA value assertions, or validations, are an important element in the quality of the reporting. When validation errors are detected instantly, corrections can be made timely. Especially with precise error messages the resolution time is shorter.

We implemented both the EIOPA technical and business value assertions with the goal to improve the overall regulatory reporting process. And our validations include NST's where applicable. We recognized the importance of the validations and as a result this is highly appreciate by our clients.

A lack of technical validations may cause the QRT filing being rejected by the regulator. And worse case the company has to re-do a major part of the reporting process.

Technical validations

EIOPA's technical validations (value assertions) are performed on input data. The user will receive immediate feedback, through clear error messages, and can quickly take corrective actions.

Value Assertions

Business validations

EIOPA's business validations (value assertions) are performed directly after the SCR/MCR calculations. The results are presented on the QRT Dashboard with direct links to the respective data points.

Eiopa Validations

Audit trail

The input data, calculated results and corrective actions are all traceable to the level of data model points. A complete audit trail is kept independent of how the process is executed.

The Challenge
