The three European Supervisory Authorities (ESAs) (EBA, EIOPA and ESMA) has published their individual reports on the supervisory independence of competent authorities (CAs) in their sectors.

Based on the CAs’ self-assessment, the three reports highlight that the independence of CAs is multi-faceted and dependent on a number of legal, institutional, operational and cultural factors.

The three reports take stock of the factual situation on CAs’ independence along key angles, namely, operational, financial and personal independence as well as accountability and transparency. The reports seek to factually represent the arrangements and practices reported by CAs without assessing the independence of individual CAs.

EIOPA welcomes the Solvency II proposals of the European Commission (EC) to give mandates to EIOPA for further action on sustainable finance. EIOPA is convinced that these proposals would contribute positively to a transition into a more sustainable economy and that insurers, in their role as investors and risk managers, can facilitate it.

In particular, it is welcomed:

  • the two mandates proposed by the EC regarding sustainability risks;
  • the inclusion of climate change scenarios in the Own Risk and Solvency Assessment (ORSA), which reflects EIOPA’s opinion  published in April 2021.
