SFCR 2023: LV= returns to tier 3 capital

LV= published its Solvency and Financial Condition Report early, following a trend of early reporting by European insurance groups this year.

LV= Solvency II ratio

The group has one of the more dynamic Solvency II ratios, rising and falling over the years between 135% (2016) to 229% (2019).

The 2023 ratio is 197% driven mostly by a sharp decrease in the SCR relative to unchanged eligible ownd funds to meet the SCR.

LV= tier 3 capital eligible own funds

LV=’s tier 3 capital in 2023 is reported at GBP 25 million, this after several years where the group did not use any of the tier 3 capital allocation towards its Eligible Own Funds (EOF).

The SFCR explains that tier 3 capital represents the groups deferred tax assets.
