FSB 2015 update of list of global systemically important insurers (G-SIIs)

FSB updated the list of global systemically important insurers (G-SIIs). The updated list, based on end-2014 data, includes a total of nine primary insurers. The G-SII list is updated annually based on a publicly available designation methodology which is currently being reviewed by the IAIS. A consultation paper on the reviewed methodology will be published later this month. The refined G-SII assessment methodology will be applied from the 2016 designation.
