Drivers of Solvency II SCR ratio change across Europe 2016 – 2018

The following set of charts shows the changes in SCR ratios of European solo insurers between 2016 and 2018 relative to the changes in Own Fund and the Solvency Capital Requirement (SCR).

As can be observed the shift in the ratio is driven by the relationship between the own funds and the SCR, rather than absolute value. For example, it is possible for own funds to increase but if the SCR increase is larger this will drive down the ratio.
