In late 2021 China's insurance regulator published the long-awaited, significant revisions to its C-Ross rules.
In some fundamental ways they reset how all of China's underwriters, including their chief investment officers, are supervised, and the updated rules they must now work by.
Insurance Asset Risk has read through 400+ pages of those C-Ross Phase II rules forming the backbone of this special report.
In a 40-page report of exclusive content we summarise 10 chapters of the new rules, and provide detailed analyses of the most significant revision to China's insurance regulations since 2016, including tables of data behind C-Ross Phase II risk charges, and analysis of ratings agencies' views on C-Ross Phase II rules.
Our analysis is complemented by exclusive interviews, including with Xin Liu, head of working group in charge of revising market risk module of C-Ross Phase II. We also interviewed CFOs at prominent Chinese insurers and asset managers servicing them.
For their support in helping us produce this report, we would like to sincerely thank: Sunshine Insurance Group's Xin Liu, DWS's Ellen Yang, Teddy Au Leung at China Taiping Life, Leo Ng at AIA Life Insurance China, and representatives at the regulator, CBIRC.
The report is free to download.
