EXPLANATORY NOTE | ||
(This note is not part of the Instrument and does not purport to be a legal interpretation) | ||
These Regulations amend the European Union (Insurance Undertakings: Financial Statements) Regulations 2015 (SI 262/2015) and may be cited as the European Union (Insurance Undertakings: Financial Statements) (Amendment) Regulations 2016. | ||
The purpose of this SI is to amend the European Union (Insurance Undertakings: Financial Statements) Regulations 2015 (SI 262/2015) so as to reflect changes made by the European Union (Insurance and Reinsurance) Regulations 2015 (SI 485/2015) which transposed Directive 2009/138/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 November 2009 on the taking up and pursuit of the business of Insurance and Reinsurance (Solvency II) and which removed the need for the computing of the life assurance provisions to be carried out by a Fellow of the Society of Actuaries in Ireland. | ||
