Summary:

The insurance sector plays a growing role in national economies. This reinforces the importance of the solvency of insurance companies. Yet how can we stay informed about the rules and practices related to the supervision of the financial health of these insurance companies in OECD countries? This publication synthesizes contributions made by the 30 OECD countries on national regulation of insurance solvency supervision, its practical organization and the measures taken when difficulties arise.
