AbstractFocusing the perspective of German life insurance industry, this article starts with a brief description and discussion of the financial impact of the persistently low interest rate environment. Based on an empirical data set of German life insurers, the author illustrates actual limitations to generate sufficient investment income for to meet the given specific financial guarantees. Moreover, the core problem, caused by the use of volatile timingrelated interest rates for to evaluate long-term cash flows, becomes obvious. The currently observed regulatory interventions are trying to overcome the existential consequences of the so-called fair value measurement. In consequence, the author derives four central theses:1. Life insurance in Germany suffers from insufficient capital adequacy.2. Persistent low interest rates threaten the fulfillment of financial guaranty commitments of German life insurers.3. The generally accepted principals of economic evaluation do not satisfy to the traditional business model of German life insurers.4. Under a business perspective, the development of new life insurance products is inevitable.

The paper deals with the issues of risk margin computation as an element of technical provisions of Insurers under the Solvency II regulatory regime. Due to a lack of regulatory method for the capital cost, in combination with the low interest rates, the risk margin is set too high and variable, which primarily affects life insurance companies. The paper includes particular proposals for overcoming or mitigating the problem of too high and rate-sensitive risk margin. The proposed solutions include both modifications to the existing capital cost method and abandonment and the replacement of this method by other risk margin computation methods.
