The Application Paper on Resolution Powers and Planning provides guidance for supervisors and resolution authorities in implementing a resolution framework, including setting up powers, as well as planning and issues around coordination and cooperation.
This Paper is part of a broader project to help insurance supervisors apply the new standards on recovery and resolution as agreed in the Common Framework for the supervision of Internationally Active Insurance Groups (ComFrame) and the Holistic Framework for the assessment and mitigation of systemic risk in the insurance sector. Recovery and resolution frameworks help reduce the likelihood of a disorderly failure of insurers, as well as the potential adverse impacts of such a failure on policyholders and/or financial stability. An earlier Paper on recovery planning was published in 2019.
