Netherlands
2010 to 2014
According to the source, the Dutch Central Bank (DNB) demands from January 1st 2012 that the equity of health insurance companies in the Netherlands equals at least 11 percent of the claims. Solvability is calculated as a percentage of this 11 percent ratio. When an insurance company meets this demand it will have a solvability of 100 percent, effectively meaning that the equity equals 11 percent of the claims. Should the ratio reach a number lower than 100, the DNB will take measures. This method is called Solvency I.
2016 marks the introduction of Solvency II, a new framework for the prudential supervision of insurers.
The numbers provided include both basic and additional health insurances.The source did not provide data for 2015 or earlier than 2010.
