Consultation on the criteria for the identification of exceptional sector-wide shocks - Solvency II Review

The draft RTS on exceptional sector-wide shocks provides criteria to supervisory authorities for identifying such shocks. At the time of exceptional shocks, supervisors may require insurers with a particularly vulnerable risk profile to restrict or suspend dividend payments, share buybacks or bonuses.

EIOPA invites stakeholders to provide their feedback on the Consultation Paper by responding to the questions via the online surveys no later than 2 January 2025. All responses will be published on EIOPA’s website unless otherwise requested.
