FSB will not be updating list of global systemically important insurers for 2017

The Financial Stability Board (FSB), in consultation with the International Association of Insurance Supervisors and national authorities has published a statement which explains it has decided not to publish a new list of global systemically important insurers (G-SIIs) for 2017.

The FSB comments that the work of IAS in the insurance sector to develop an activities-based approach may have significant implications for the assessment of systemic risk in the insurance sector and hence for the identification of G-SIIs and for G-SII policy measures.

The FSB will review the situation in November 2018 based on IAIS’ progress on its approach.
