Solvency II

Agile Solvency II Services:

Solvency II Data Profiling & Data Quality 

Information management solutions play will be a key part of any successful implementation of Solvency II. The provision of data for internal models, standard formula for capital requirements or for identifying indicators that will enable effective risk management will require consistency between regulatory, prudential and financial reporting within the enterprise.  

Agile Solutions proven experience of data quality and data governance give our clients a clear advantage when considering the importance of data quality in a Solvency II Scenario. There are numerous requirements regarding the quality of data but clearly auditable, accurate, relevant, complete and appropriate data will be required to ensure the investment in Solvency II is not wasted.  Many of the challenges of Solvency II need to be addressed using IT solutions and initial estimates show that IT projects are expected to cost several million Euros for medium to large insurers, and it would not be surprising to see IT-related costs consuming 60 to 80% of the Solvency II budget.

Agile Solutions data profiling technology and services can ensure that a true understanding of data quality in the source systems feeding the Solvency II development is fully understood allowing for more accurate costing of both corrective action, management and integration costs.
