Pensions - Articles - EIOPA seeks input to it's Solvency II RFR coding


The European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA) has kicked off an exercise to challenge the “beta”-version of its risk free interest rate (RFR) coding used in the current preparatory phase. The published coding fully reflects the methodology set out in the Risk Free Interest Rate technical documentation published on EIOPA’s website.

 The aim of the exercise is to collect input from stakeholders and, in particular, the MatLab community that would help further improve the coding and spot possible errors.
  
 In the first step, the RFR coding has already been reviewed by the national supervisory authorities, which are members of EIOPA’s Board of Supervisors. In addition, EIOPA believes that such a highly complex product would benefit from input and proposals from all the interested parties in the course of the exercise. It will also enhance understanding of the RFR calculations and will contribute to the preparatory efforts for Solvency II.
  
 To appreciate high-quality proposals from academia and, in particular, from students with MatLab expertise, EIOPA will consider providing them with expert support in selected research projects. EIOPA will also indicate the best proposals in a special list published on EIOPA’s website.
  
 EIOPA is going to revise the RFR coding based upon the results of the exercise and will publish the final RFR coding and methodology before 1 January 2016.
  
 The exercise will close on 31 August 2015.
