On April 21, 2016, Insurance Europe, the European insurance and reinsurance federation, released a press release raising concerns over how Solvency II liabilities are currently calculated, including discount rates. This press release was published in response to the consultation carried out by the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority and it discusses whether the Ultimate Forward Rate should be calculated by reference to the discount rate, or whether it may be adjusted to reflect changes in long-term expectations.
