Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Cross-border insurance in Europe : challenges for supervision

Notas: Sumario: At the start of Solvency II in January 2016, there is no overview of the insurance market in Europe. This paper develops a methodology to link various data sets on foreign branches and subsidiaries. The result is a new and comprehensive data set of cross-border insurance in Europe. It was found that cross-border business in insurance is higher than in banking. It was also found that the share of cross-border insurance has increased over the last decade, notwithstanding the global financial crisis. EIOPA, the European supervisory authority, plays a coordinating role among the national supervisors in the approval of internal models under Solvency II. Game theory suggests that there are limits to the coordination model. The increasing share of cross-border insurance, documented in this paper, may tilt the supervisory balance from coordination towards centralisation in an Insurance UnionRegistros relacionados: En: Geneva papers on risk and insurance : issues and practice. - Geneva : The Geneva Association, 1976- = ISSN 1018-5895. - 01/07/2016 Volumen 41 Número 3 - julio 2016 , p. 351-377Materia / lugar / evento: Mercado de seguros Internacionalización del seguro Prestación de servicios transnacional Supervisión financiera Solvencia II Indicadores de actividad Supervisión de seguros Concentración de seguros Europa Otros autores: Sass, Jan
