The growth of the life insurance segment encourages the state supervisory authority for the activities of insurance business entities to create conditions for its sustainable development, including through the introduction of a risk-based approach to the regulation and supervision of insurance companies –the Solvency II Directive. The Solvency II Directive is similar in concept to the risk-based approach to Bank regulation and supervision (Basel II). The expected results of its introduction are an adequateand comprehensive assessment of the risks of the insurance company's activities, compliance of the amount of capital with the level and profile of risks taken, as well as transparency and special rules for disclosure of information about its activities. Increasing growth rates in the insurance market and prospects for increasing the level of supervision by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation require life insurance companies to implement practical methods for assessing their capital, which are based on the most accurate assessment of their risks

Strategic Imperative

Increased competition, new technologies and the shift in power from the provider to the customer have produced unrelenting pressure on life insurance business. The market forces point to one overwhelming strategic imperative: customer-focused strategy. Customers are willing to build long-term relationships based on trust and mutual respect with firms that provide a differentiated and personalized service offering. Over the past few years, life insurance industry responded to intensified competition and high customer attrition by entering each other’s markets to capture greater “wallet share” and ostensibly lower their economies of scale. The service delivery process is influenced by quality of personnel, information technology, internal processes, human resource practices, and even an institution’s own change orientation. Now a day’s customers are demanding seamless, multi-channel sales and service experiences. Simultaneously, other players are looking for opportunities to invade this space or to redefine it through disruptive innovation. The result is forcing life insurance companies to examine a more balanced, integrated approach to the customer experience and growth. This research, we analyze the need, preference and satisfaction of customers in life insurance business and provide perspective on how to improve the customer experience.

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.

The number of multinationals in the life-insurance sector expanded during the first era of globalization. Many of these firms gravitated to Spain, attracted by factors such as the country's small number of national companies and minimal regulatory requirements. Toward the end of the nineteenth century, however, the Spanish government began to impose more institutional regulations, increasing the guarantees, deposits, and reserves required of insurance companies. In response, American and British multinationals began to leave the Spanish market, propelled both by the new requirements and by a series of external factors that obliged American companies to reduce their international business. Finally, the economic disruption that accompanied the outbreak of World War I convinced American and British multinationals to withdraw from the Spanish insurance business.

Abstract Insurance companies operate in a turbulent, constantly changing environment. The insurance market plays an important role in the economy. On the one hand, it is characterized by the dynamic development of services based on new technologies and distribution channels, and on the other hand, it is subject to transformations related to changes in the scope of conducting insurance activities – including new legal regulations – and has to counter global challenges, such as the crisis which started in 2007 on the American financial market. In such realities, insurers must manage their investment activities. The article indicates the legal basis of the restrictions applicable to insurance companies in relation to their investment activities. The Solvency II system is discussed and the most important differences from its predecessor – Solvency I – are presented, and there is an analysis of the structure of investments of domestic life and non-life insurance companies.

The problem of this research is how to regulate investment-based life insurance in Indonesia and the liability of investment-based life insurance companies against the risk of default by policyholders. This study uses a research method that has an empirical juridical type. The study results explain that the regulation of investment-based life insurance in Indonesia is regulated in Law Number 40 of 2014 concerning Business Per Insurance, OJK Regulation Number 23/POJK.05/2015 concerning Insurance Products and Marketing and Decree of the Chairman of BPPM and Financial Institutions Number KEP-104/ BL/2006 concerning Investment-based life insurance products. PP Number 87 of 2019 concerning insurance companies in the form of joint ventures, RI's Financial Decree Number 422/KMK.06/2003 and Director General of Financial Institutions Decree Number 2475/LK concerning investment insurance products and forms of liability of default insurance companies must fulfill the contents of the agreement insurance that gives rise to the rights and obligations of the insured reciprocally. However, Law Number 40 of 2014 concerning Insurance Business does not fully regulate violations in the insurance business and does not regulate how the insurance company is responsible for the company's inability to fulfill insurance claims.
