o This year, insurance companies have for the first time (publicly) disclosed their Solvency and Financial Condition Reports (SFCRs) and Quantitative Reporting Templates (QRTs)
o We have selected the top-10 life insurers in The Netherlands on solo entity level, based on total own funds.The selected life insurers are:o Nationale-Nederlanden Levensverzekering Maatschappij N.V.o Aegon Levensverzekering N.V.o Achmea Pensioen- en Levensverzekeringen N.V.o SRLEV N.V.o Delta Lloyd Levensverzekering N.V.o ASR Levensverzekering N.V.o Allianz Nederland Levensverzekering N.V.o Generali levensverzekering maatschappij N.V.o Loyalis Leven N.V. o SCILDON N.V. (previously Legal & General Levensverzekering Maatschappij N.V.)
o Significant differences in SII ratio can be observed between the selected life insurers, ranging from 115% to 238% with an average of 165%.
o A lot of attention was on the LACDT this year and so this presentation includes some dedicated slides:o Only Allianz and Scildon could substantiate the full LACDT (25% of SCR);o LACDT can help insurers to increase their SII ratio, however, it seems that only those who already have a high SII ratio are able to
make full use of the LACDT.

Solvency II ratio• Significant differences in SII ratio can be observed between life insurers. The average SII ratio for the selected life insurers is 165%.
• The top-3 are Scildon (238%), Allianz (211%) and NN Life (203%).
• The life insurers with the lowest SII ratio have taken actions in 2017 to increase their SII ratio.

SCR by Risk Module (SF & PIM)• As expected, Market risk and Life Underwriting risk are the dominant risk components.
• The diversification benefit is larger for the life insurers with a Partial Internal Model (NN & Aegon). Please note that insurers with PIM may use a slightly different setup for the SCR reporting in the QRT’s.
• LACTP is rarely used in The Netherlands, this might be explained by fact that future management actions are not fomally recorded.
* *Please note that Op and LACDT = % of net SCR, LACTP = % of gross SCR, others are % of BSCR before diversification

LACDT• The majority of the life insurers have made use of the LACDT, despite the additional (stricter) interpretation provided by the DNB (3
February 2017).
• There are only two life insurers that could substantiate the full LACDT (25% of SCR)

SII Ratio vs. LACDT• Insurers with a high SII ratio also tend to have a high LACDT
• LACDT can help insurers to increase their SII ratio, however, it seems that only those who already have a high SII ratio are able to make full use of the LACDT.

SII Ratio vs. Market Risk• Insurers with a high SII ratio also tend to have a high Market Risk SCR
• Insurers with higher SII ratio are better capitalized, allowing them to take more investment risk

Risk Margin• The average ratio of Risk Margin / TP is 3,3% for life insurers and is much lower than for non-life insurers (6,2%)
• Allianz and Scildon have a relatively low Risk Margin / TP ratio.This is probably due to the fact that these life insurers have a relatively large unit-linked portfolio.
