The time has come for an overhaul of the Insurance system, as regulation regarding known inadequacies has progressively become stronger in recent years. Solvency II is an opportunity to improve insurance regulation by introducing:

• An more risk-based and integrated approach for insurance provisions and capital requirements
• A comprehensive framework for risk management
• Internal models for estimating capital requirements
• Recognition of diversification and risk mitigation.
