Understand the Health NSLT Standard Deviation

Overview

This calculator implements the Health NSLT Standard Deviation calculation within the Solvency II standard formula.[1] The standard deviation is defined as the measure of volatility associated with the undertaking's health-NSLT insurance and reinsurance obligations. It is calibrated to reflect the expected fluctuations in health-claims frequency and severity over a one-year horizon.

Input Terms

  • Prescribed Health Volatility: The volatility factors provided by EIOPA for each health line of business (LoB).[1]
  • Undertaking-Specific Parameters (USP): The internal health-volatility estimates used if the undertaking has supervisory approval for custom factors.
  • Diversified Health Volatility: The measure after aggregating the health-NSLT premium and reserve risk components.

Technical Rationale

The Health NSLT Standard Deviation is the primary volatility driver for the Health NSLT Premium & Reserve Risk requirement. It ensures that the capital requirement is representative of the undertaking's specific health-risk profile and its LoB-diversification.

The calculation aggregates the standard deviations for each health-LoB using the prescribed correlation matrix. This ensures the undertaking holds enough capital to absorb the risk of simultaneous large health-claims across multiple portfolios. The result is then multiplied by the Health NSLT Volume Measure to determine the total capital requirement for health-NSLT premium & reserve risk.[1]

Important Notes

  • Regulatory deviation: Material deviation from standard-formula assumptions at this layer may support a capital add-on or a move toward an internal model where justified.[2]
  • Reporting: The displayed result is intended to support the corresponding standard-formula component feeding the S.25.01.01 standard-formula reporting view.[3]
