Abstract

With the insurance business becoming increasingly international, supervisory authorities need to increase cross-border cooperation with other supervisory authorities if they want to be able to achieve their supervisory objectives. Today, effective protection of domestic policyholders and the maintenance of a sound and stable domestic insurance market increasingly depend on the effective analysis of the risks arising from cross-border activities and the overall assessment of the insurer's or group's risk profile.

Keywords:

regulation and supervision, cross-border cooperation
