EIOPA’s study on the modelling of market and credit risk in internal models

EIOPA published the results of its yearly study on the modelling of market and credit risk in internal models.

In summary, the study:

  • was run by a joint project group of NCAs and EIOPA, and it provides an up-to-date overview of modelling approaches
  • covers close to 100% of the relevant section of the market
  • reveals moderate to significant dispersion in some asset model outputs; part of the dispersion is probably attributable to certain model and business specificities.
  • covers  the modelling of the market and credit risk related to investment instruments; and as per the last edition, participants were asked about the consideration of sustainability in their modelling approach
  • is intended to help further develop supervisory tools and foster common supervisory practices.

EIOPA launched another year-end 2022 survey and the results will be published in early 2024.
