Executive Summary (partial) "The European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA) initiated in 2017 the publication of a series of papers on systemic risk and macroprudential policy in insurance. So far, most of the discussions concerning macroprudential policy have focused on the banking sector. The aim of EIOPA is to contribute to the debate, whilst taking into consideration the specific nature of the insurance business. With this purpose, EIOPA has followed a step-by-step approach, seeking to address the following questions: - Does insurance create or amplify systemic risk? - If yes, what are the tools already existing in the current framework, and how do they contribute to mitigate the sources of systemic risk? - Are other tools needed and, if yes, which ones could be promoted? While the two first questions were addressed in previous papers (see EIOPA, the purpose of the present paper is to identify, classify and provide a preliminary assessment of potential additional tools and measures to enhance the current framework in the EU from a macroprudential perspective."
