Goal
The primary objective is to identify and assess potential vulnerabilities of
the Belgian insurance sector to interest rate risk

possible exemption of an insurer to contribute to the flashing light provision
Identified weaknesses at individual level cannot be neglected
Vulnerabilities at market level can best be addressed at individual level
Scope
Mandatory: large insurers
Voluntary: all other insurers with a life or workers’ compensation activity
Scenario
Assess impact of a stressed yield curve on balance sheet and solvency
All other parameters (VA, spreads, …) are not stressed

Solvency (including LTG and VA) SCR ratio
MCR ratio(right scale)
EU solvency figures are difficult to
compare due to different application
of LTG measures throughout the EU.
For example many German insurers
make use of the Transitional on TP.

Low for Long - Result at market level
► Significant impact LY scenario
Results have been adjusted by NBB
Applied cap on LAC DT to net DTL to all results (~ comparability)
Most participants still applied this cap
Decrease in solvency surplus: - € 5,3 bn
decrease in EOF: - € 3,7 bn (-13,8% pre stress EOF)
increase in SCR: + € 1,6 bn (+10,5% pre stress SCR)
► Acceptable post stress situation
Solvency surplus: € 6,5 bn
SCR ratio: 139% (-40%)
SCR ratio: 145% (without cap on LAC DT)
Increase in SCR would be limited to + € 1,0 bn (+6,6% pre stress SCR)

► Decrease in eAoL: - € 3,4 bn (-13,3%)
Caused by the lower yield curve and duration mismatch
Increase in assets: + € 9,8 bn (+3,3%)
Increase in liabilities: + € 13,2 bn (+4,9%)

NBB IST 2017 - Results of the Low for Long scenario 15 / 16
Low for Long - Change in capital requirement
► SCR of P/IM users is more risk sensitive than SF users
► Increase in SCR of SF users is mainly driven by
● An increase of SCR Life underwriting risk (=> SCR Lapse)
● A decrease of the LAC DT
