Reach EU Solvency II Directive readiness without rebuilding your policy programme
Solvency II is the EU regulatory framework for insurance + reinsurance undertakings. Three pillars: (1) quantitative capital requirements — Solvency Capital Requirement (SCR) + Minimum Capital Requirement (MCR), valuation of assets + liabilities; (2) qualitative governance + risk management including Own Risk + Solvency Assessment (ORSA); (3) disclosure + reporting including Solvency + Financial Condition Report (SFCR) + Regular Supervisory Report (RSR). The Solvency II Review 2024 introduced enhanced macroprudential tools, sustainability-risk integration + recovery + resolution provisions. Quick Policy maps EU Solvency II Directive into the policy families, controls, and evidence your team needs - and keeps it current between audits.
Standards assurance
How Quick Policy verifies against EU Solvency II Directive
Every policy Quick Policy generates is scored against EU Solvency II Directive's pass mark, with a PASS, WARN, or FAIL verdict and plain-English guidance on what to fix when it falls short.
A monthly automated audit re-checks coverage against this standard, so drift is caught between scheduled reviews rather than at the next one.
Audit-ready exports bundle the scored policies, gap guidance, and review history into one evidence pack when it is time to show your work.

Why EU Solvency II Directive matters for your operating model
EU Solvency II Directive doesn't just dictate document templates - it shapes which controls auditors test, what evidence they ask for, and which gaps surface first during diligence. Getting it wrong creates renewal slippage, audit findings, and stalled customer deals.
- • Issued by European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA) / NCAs and primarily enforced in EU.
- • Directly shapes policy families including Capital Management, Governance, Risk Management, Actuarial — these are the artefacts assessors open first.
- • Common artifacts include Policy.
- • Obligation model: Mandatory In Scope — meaning you need defensible reasoning for in-scope vs out-of-scope decisions, not just signed policies.

EU Solvency II Directive FAQs
What does EU Solvency II Directive actually require?
Solvency II is the EU regulatory framework for insurance + reinsurance undertakings. Three pillars: (1) quantitative capital requirements — Solvency Capital Requirement (SCR) + Minimum Capital Requirement (MCR), valuation of assets + liabilities; (2) qualitative governance + risk management including Own Risk + Solvency Assessment (ORSA); (3) disclosure + reporting including Solvency + Financial Condition Report (SFCR) + Regular Supervisory Report (RSR). The Solvency II Review 2024 introduced enhanced macroprudential tools, sustainability-risk integration + recovery + resolution provisions. In practice that means the policies, controls, and evidence around Capital Management, Governance, Risk Management, Actuarial need to be authored, owned, tested, and producible on demand. Quick Policy maps each requirement to a policy section and evidence type so you can show coverage clause-by-clause.

When you adopt EU Solvency II Directive, Quick Policy auto-recommends the policy families, applicability decisions, and evidence types that align to it.
