Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this article is to draw attention to the reporting challenges faced by the insurance companies due to the adoption of Solvency II. The introduction of new reporting rules will require huge commitment of executives and it will incur certain costs. However, in the long term, the introduction of additional requirements means increased transparency and efficiency of the insurance industry, more secure customers and more comparable reporting on an international scale, which is not always possible for statutory reporting.
