Supervisory Dialogues
Initial impact of Covid-19: supervisory responses and consumer protection - A2ii-IAIS Consultation Call webinar series on the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and implications for insurance supervisors
Jurisdictions around the world are taking measures to protect their populations against the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The global pandemic has significant impact on an individual country’s economy and also far-reaching consequences for the financial sector in general including the insurance sector. To help supervisors adapt to this fast-changing environment, learn from their peers and get input from experts, the A2ii together with the IAIS are launching a new Webinar series on the topic.
The webinars will look at both the impact on the financial stability of the insurance sector as well as conduct of business implications. A special focus will be given to the situation in emerging and developing economies including the impact on vulnerable populations, recognising the higher personal economic risk they face due to a lack of resources and the fact they are disproportionately more likely to be uninsured or underinsured for healthcare.
The first call in the series will take place on 2, April 2020. The results of the IAIS member survey on how supervisory authorities around the world are responding to the crisis will be presented. In addition, consumer protection implications will be examined.
This webinar will be held on the Webex platform and in three different languages - English, French and Spanish at the following times:
9am (CEST) English || 11am (CEST) French || 3pm (CEST) English || 5pm (CEST) Spanish
Please note that this series is restricted to supervisors only.
If you have any questions or comments, please send them to consultation.call@a2ii.org
Disclaimer: Please save the date for the subsequent series taking place on 16th and 30th April. Dates and times might change.
