FERMA publishes Position Paper on EIOPA and ECB (re)insurance scheme proposal
FERMA supports the EIOPA and ECB's proposal for a European public‑private reinsurance scheme to address the natural catastrophe protection gap. While backing the risk‑based premium model and the potential for price stability, FERMA emphasizes the need for reliable and consistent data collection across nations. They also highlight the importance of a sufficiently large EU pool to manage premium pricing, a clear regulatory framework avoiding unnecessary burdens, and mechanisms to encourage long‑term private sector engagement beyond annual renewals. FERMA advocates for continuous consultation and leveraging the scheme to incentivize risk prevention.
