Pillar II issues relevant for reinsurance. CRO Forum comments on Consultation Paper no. 16 “Pillar II issues relevant for reinsurance” Please find attached the CRO Forum’s comments on CEIOPS Consultation Paper no. 16. We agree with CEIOPS that the discussion about the treatment of third country reinsurers under the Solvency II framework needs further in-depth analysis and consideration. We welcome that CEIOPS considers its advice as being preliminary and we would encourage CEIOPS and the EU Commission to enter into an open dialogue with the reinsurance industry about the treatment of third country reinsurers under the Solvency II framework.
