520  ‎$a‎We compare the regulatory environment for the maximum technical interest rate of life insurance contracts in four European countries and the United States. In Germany, Austria and Switzerland, the maximum rate is driven by a long-term rolling average of government bond yields and is adjusted by the regulator. In the U.S., corporate bond yields are used and the regulator is not directly involved in setting the maximum rate. The regime implemented in the United Kingdom is unique: instead of a rules-based one-size-fits-all approach, the maximum rate is determined by a company-specific principle-based method. We provide a comparative analysis of the different systems and conduct a numerical analysis to investigate how the maximum rate will develop under predefined interest rate scenarios. The discussion is highly relevant in light of Solvency II, a regime that may fundamentally change regulation of the maximum technical interest rate.
