Solvency UK

Overview

The introduction of Solvency UK aims to enhance flexibility and competitiveness in the insurance sector while maintaining high policyholder protection standards.

Key changes include simplified requirements, dynamic capital adjustments, and increased entry thresholds. The reforms are part of a phased implementation by the PRA.

Whilst Lloyd’s is not a UK insurance company, the PRA Rulebook refers to Lloyd’s specifically (“the association of underwriters known as Lloyd’s”) and requires Lloyd’s to report as if Lloyd’s were a “UK Solvency II” firm.

The PRA rulebook instructs managing agents to provide any information that Lloyd’s needs in order to facilitate this.

Solvency UK adoption

The PRA published the final rules on 15 November 2024.

Lloyd’s has a rule modification from the PRA deferring reporting under Solvency UK for the Society of Lloyd’s and Lloyd’s syndicates until Q4 2025. As part of the deferral, year-end 2024 reporting will need to be resubmitted to the PRA under the Solvency UK requirements in December 2025.

Our approach

Lloyd’s is collecting Solvency UK data from syndicates in line with the PRA Solvency UK taxonomy and in XBRL format.

A Solvency UK market briefing was held on 27 March 2025, during which Lloyd’s plans for adoption were shared with the market.

For those market participants who were unable to join us, you will find a recording of the session as well as a copy of the slides below for your review.
