Reinsurance

In addition to the financial strength illustrated by PruProtect, there are two further ways in which customers interests are safeguarded.
The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA)
•The FCA requires insurance companies to complete an Individual Capital Assessment (ICA) every year. The ICA is a worst case scenario test of extreme events which produces a capital reserve figure. PruProtect is required to hold assets/reserves that amount to this figure i.e. to provide an additional margin of protection against significant adverse events
The Financial Service Compensation Scheme (FSCS)
•The FSCS is the compensation fund of last resort for customers of authorised financial services firms. In the event that an insurer becomes insolvent or ceases trading FSCS can pay compensation to the customers of the insolvent insurer.
•Insurance companies are required to pay into the FSCS for purposes of compensating customers in extreme circumstances, who have suffered financial loss following a company going insolvent. All insurance companies pay into this scheme and it would cover up to 90% of a customer's claim amount.
