Objectives

Objectives

The notion of “emerging risks” has matured. It no longer refers primarily to new or unfamiliar threats, but to the combination of macroeconomic uncertainty, balance-sheet complexity and structural dependencies that may test the resilience of the insurance sector in new ways. 

This roundtable aims to assess how supervisory priorities have evolved at global, EU and national levels, where approaches are converging or diverging, and whether current prudential frameworks are adequately equipped to manage these intertwined risks while preserving simplicity, comparability and efficiency. 

Points of discussion

  1. Persistent volatility and possible discontinuous shocks: what macro and market risk challenges have been observed?
  2. How can investment complexity, illiquidity and transparency be addressed, particularly with regard to private credit?
  3. Climate, cyber and AI: what are the main structural risk amplifiers, and how can they be addressed?
