About this listen

In this episode of The Standard Formula, host Robert Chaplin and Skadden colleague Theo Charalambous provide a high-level refresher on Solvency II, Solvency UK and relevant recent developments as part of Skadden’s year-long podcast series on global prudential solvency requirements. The hosts detail both regimes and relevant topics, including the Matching Adjustment Accelerator (MAIA), enhanced liquidity reporting requirements, and new exit planning obligations for Solvency UK that represent a shift away from Solvency II toward a U.K.-focused approach.
