Finanssivalvonta (FI) announced that Solvency II DPM 2.4.0 validations have been updated and the changes enable reception of partial reports during COVID-19 crisis. A circular has been published by EIOPA on Technical Specifications and FAQs on Solvency.
Technical specifications
EIOPA has considered different options and concluded that the current 2.4.0 Solvency II taxonomy is suitable to accommodate the recommendations. Therefore, there is no need of taxonomy updates/hotfixes to implement these Recommendations, and it is only necessary to temporarily deactivate a small set of validations that could block the acceptance of Partial submissions.
Note that a change of severity from blocking to non-blocking validations according to the current XBRL specifications would require a light taxonomy hotfix. For this reason, it has been decided that the validations are to be temporarily deactivated at list of validations and taxonomy level, and will be reactivated right after the end of the extraordinary extended deadlines for submission from undertakings to Competent Authorities.
