Risk Transfer

FERMA’s advocacy efforts on the topic of risk transfer have traditionally focused on the prudential regulation framework, Solvency II.

We have pushed for a regulatory framework that is proportionate to the nature, size and complexity of the insurance undertaking.

FERMA organises its work around Risk Transfer, primarily through its Captives Committee, which works on topics ranging from tax to Solvency II. 

We are also active in this area because as risk and insurance managers we want to ensure the EU (re)insurance market remains dynamic, secure and competitive in the international business environment.
