Understand the Health SLT Mortality Risk Simplification

Overview

This calculator implements the simplified capital requirement for Health SLT Mortality Risk within the Solvency II standard formula.[1] It applies the Article 97 final aggregation after projection-year discounted capital-at-risk contributions have been prepared.

Input Terms

  • Average Mortality Rate (q): The expected average mortality rate across insured persons and future years, weighted by the sum insured.[1]
  • Mortality Stress Rate: The Article 97 mortality stress applied to the simplified calculation.[1]
  • Total Discounted Capital at Risk Contribution: The sum of prepared projection-year contributions. Health SLT Mortality Projection Year Contribution calculates one yearly contribution from capital at risk, survival weighting, and the relevant spot rate.[1]

Technical Rationale

Article 97 approximates health SLT mortality capital by scaling the prepared discounted capital-at-risk contribution by the mortality stress and expected mortality rate.[1] The simplification is a proportional substitute for a full stressed valuation only where the Article 97 conditions are supportable; broader Health Risk aggregation remains a separate capital requirement step.

Important Notes

  • Applicability: The simplification is for similar-to-life health obligations with positive capital at risk under the health mortality stress.[1]
  • Gross vs. Net SCR: This simplification estimates the standalone Health SLT Mortality Risk SCR. Solvency II risk is only finalized as a net impact on Basic Own Funds after diversification in the higher Health Risk aggregation path, then within BSCR, and after the top-level LAC TP and LAC DT adjustments.
  • Regulatory deviation: Material deviation from the standard-formula assumptions or from the conditions supporting this simplification may support a capital add-on or a move toward a fuller or internal-model approach where justified.[2]
  • Reporting: The simplified result is intended to support the corresponding standard-formula component for the S.25.01.01 standard-formula reporting view, not to replace the full article-based result where the simplification is not justified.[3]
