Face à l’augmentation des risques (climatiques, technologiques, démographiques), le secteur doit évoluer d’une logique d’indemnisation vers une approche de prévention et de gestion globale des risques. Il insiste sur la nécessité d’anticiper, d’innover et de coopérer avec l’ensemble des acteurs pour maintenir l’assurabilité. L’assurance est ainsi appelée à contribuer davantage à la résilience économique et sociale, tout en intégrant les enjeux environnementaux et sociétaux dans ses pratiques.
EIOPA submitted draft amendments to two Implementing Technical Standards under Solvency II to the European Commission. The proposals incorporate changes from the Solvency II review and aim to reduce the reporting burden by at least 25% across sectors .The amendments include reducing the frequency of certain templates, deleting some annual templates, greater use of proportionality, and technical simplifications. EIOPA states these would lower quarterly templates by 26% for solo undertakings, annual templates by 30%, and data points by 22%, with higher reductions for small and non-complex undertakings.
EIOPA expresses the view that the changes would provide meaningful benefits without jeopardizing policyholder protection or financial stability. The new requirements are set to apply from 30 January 2027, with a transitional provision for 2026 annual reporting.
The European Supervisory Authorities (ESAs) identify ongoing geopolitical tensions—particularly conflicts affecting energy markets—as key risks, potentially driving inflation, weaker growth, and financial market volatility. It states that high valuations and rising interest rates may increase liquidity and asset-quality risks. The update also highlights vulnerabilities in private finance due to limited transparency, complex interconnections, and shifting investor sentiment. Despite these concerns, it describes the EU financial sector as broadly resilient, with strong capital and liquidity positions. Authorities are said to urge continued vigilance, risk monitoring, and prudent management of exposures, especially regarding geopolitical developments and private markets.
