Purpose and role of insurance supervisory colleges
Supervisory colleges are an important tool to allow for more effective and efficient supervision of international insurance groups or international insurance conglomerates (“groups”). Colleges aim to strengthen the quality and intensity of supervisory oversight at two levels: the group as a whole and at solo level.
Colleges provide a permanent and flexible forum for cooperation and coordination among the authorities of different jurisdictions responsible for the supervision of groups. They should facilitate the handling of ongoing supervision and should also play a role in both the preparation and handling of emergency situations.
In particular, supervisory colleges aim at facilitating an exchange of information, views and assessments among supervisors, and cooperation between home and host supervisory authorities. They also enhance the mutual trust and appreciation of needs and responsibilities on which effective supervisory relationships and personal networks between supervisors are built.
Supervisory colleges, however, do not affect the rights and responsibilities of the competent authorities which are subject to the existing legal framework of the jurisdictions participating in colleges.
FINMA as group supervisor
FINMA is committed to a multidisciplinary, proactive and result-oriented approach to group supervision.
2.1 Setting up and structuring FINMA insurance supervisory colleges
As prescribed in the Financial Market Supervision Act (FINMASA) [cf. Article 6 para. 2] and in line with its strategic goal of strengthening cooperation with foreign authorities, FINMA sets up and chairs supervisory colleges (FINMA supervisory colleges) where FINMA is the responsible group supervisor of
an insurance group with international activities. FINMA is to liaise with the authorities responsible for the supervision of relevant group entities.
To operate effectively and efficiently, a college’s organizational structure has to be proportionate to nature, scale and complexity of the risks inherent in a group. It should also reflect the needs of the supervisors involved in its supervision. To meet these objectives, FINMA designs the structure of its
supervisory colleges based on a thorough mapping of all the undertakings belonging to the group.nsibilities of the competent authorities which are subject to the existing legal framework of the jurisdictions participating in colleges.
FINMA may establish several settings, e.g. “regional college” or “global college”, or establish specialized teams for certain work streams within supervisory colleges, where the effective and efficient functioning of the college requires so.
FINMA supervisory colleges are in place for the following insurance groups:
Zurich Financial Services
Swiss Reinsurance Company
Baloise-Holding
Nationale Suisse
Helvetia Holding AG
Swiss Life Holding.
