Title: Capital requirements, disclosure, and supervision in the European insurance industry
Description: "Solvency II is the most important regulatory innovation in the field of insurance in the past 20 years. The length of this project, the number of operators involved through impact studies and assessments, the adopted procedure and the wide range of innovations have created an atmosphere of great expectation around Solvency II entering into force. The adoption of a risk-based approach appears to be the most important innovation of the new regulatory framework because it determines important issues related to capital requirements and their supervision as well as their disclosure to the market.  Capital Requirements, Disclosure, and Supervision in the European Insurance Industry provides an interesting analysis of Solvency II's issues by combining both the theoretical approach and the empirical implications and effects on the European insurance industry. It discusses the new challenges facing insurance companies through the examination of its structure, the rules with which insurance companies operating in Europe have to be compliant, and their implementation.
