Press Release Summary: The insurance industry is facing turbulent times and risk
management is at the top of the agenda.

Press Release Body: Bharat Book Bureau, a leading market information distributor has
tabled a report Risk Management for Insurers:Risk Control, Economic Capital and
Solvency II http://www.bharatbook.com/detail.asp?id=50171

The insurance industry is facing turbulent times and risk management is at the top
of the agenda. This is particularly the case in Europe, where the introduction of
Solvency II will drastically redesign the supervisory rules for regulatory capital
for insurance companies. Therefore it is crucial that the industry fully understands
how to implement risk management best practice.

Solvency II is reaching a final phase and pressure is mounting on insurers to
implement and professionalise risk management practices. Needless to say,
supervisors are encouraging risk management information to be more widely spread
throughout organisations in order for it to be fully integrated into the day-to-day
management of the business. Many companies are at this moment upgrading their risk
management systems.

In this timely new book, industry expert René Doff argues that Solvency II, which
aims to improve standards of risk assessment, should be regarded as an opportunity.
Solvency II will provide incentives for insurance companies to improve their risk
management systems and will allow you to benefit from the risk management efforts in
the context of supervision.

Risk management and value creation are inherently tied together. This book also
shows how to integrate risk and value management into the management control
framework of insurance companies. It highlights the evolution of embedded value into
market consistent techniques and fair value. These issues are also relevant in the
context of accounting regulation (IFRS).

This new user-friendly book will help you to quickly get to grips with risk
management terms and techniques and how they relate specifically to the insurance
industry. It also demonstrates how Solvency II is already shaping the regulatory
agenda and its likely impact on the insurance industry.
