IAIS establishes Supervisory Forum
09 June 2011
The new Forum will focus on large insurers and will promote, among other things, discussion of existing and emerging trends and the evaluation of the potential impact of macroeconomic scenarios on large or complex insurers.
The Supervisory Forum comprises high-level senior supervisors with expertise in supervisory practice and is chaired by Steven P Ferguson (United States). The Forum will hold its first meeting during the IAIS committee meetings that are scheduled in Macau on 15–17 June. Peter Braumüller, Chair of the IAIS Executive Committee, commented that: “The IAIS is delighted to announce this new initiative. I believe that the Supervisory Forum’s work will provide a valuable supplement to the standard-setting and implementation activities of our Association and significantly contribute to enhancing effectiveness and convergence of supervisory practices globally“.
The Supervisory Forum will collaborate with other IAIS committees, and provide practical input to ongoing IAIS projects.
