The calculation of the SCR under Solvency II is extremely difficult to understand for a 'normal human being'. This will encourage board members to leave risk management to ' experts', rather than to actively participate in keeping the undertaking solvent. Furhtermore, the calculation of the SCR is extremely detailed. One can ask wether the future predicting capability of the used models is truly better than that of 'plain common sense'. No one can predict the future, not even mathematic and statistical models. I tink, the current economic crisis has proved those models to be quite worthless. European insurers are now spending millions and millions on a debatable means of protection of policyholders. Let's not forget that protection of policyholders is still the main goal of Solvency II. Too bad this goal has been lost out of sight almost immediately after the release of the draft framework. Mathematicians, statisticians, technicians and bureaucrats have taken over. What a shame!

Scor asks: what use emergency capital if it can?t be used? French reinsurer Scor has urged that solvency regulations be relaxed so that in times of crisis the solvency back-up can be of some use. In a recent paper from Scor?s Jean-Luc Besson, Michel Dacorogna and Philippe Trainar, Scor said that at the moment it felt a bit like a pilot asking for authorization to use fuel reserves because the main tank is empty, only to be told by the tower that the reserves cannot be used because they need to be saved for an emergency. Scor observed that ?the currently applied European directives require insurance companies to constantly satisfy their capital requirements, independently of the current economic and financial situation?. Scor said that the world economy was currently ?going through one of the most severe crises of the modern age?, but that regulators were applying the same solvency requirements as if nothing had happened.

La nature ayant horreur du vide, l'absence de réflexion politique sur le long terme a permis l'émergence d'une technocratie adepte de modèles mathématiques (cf. modèles de trading). Outre que Solvabilité II ne constitue pas une bonne réponse aux vrais problèmes, elle témoigne d'un autisme certain des décideurs à l'égard des acteurs du secteur. La question du traitement des petites mutuelles dans ce dispositif demeure, bien entendu, un point important du dispositif qui ... reste à étudier. Sauf si, bien sûr, le tissu mutualiste de ce pays, déjà bien érodé par les imprudentes réformes passées, n'éveille toujours pas l'intérêt de vos éminences.

La prise de conscience d'une "hyperprécipitation" qui risque de prolonger la crise par la réglementation dans le monde de l'assurance se fait jour. L'excellente intervention de Monsieur Le Pas de Sécheval dans l'enceinte de la FFSA montre toutes les dimensions dangereuses d'une réglementation bien trop théorique. Jean-François Allard
