Table 1. Thailand: Summary Compliance with the
Insurance Core Principles (continued)
17. Capital Adequacy
The Thai solvency regime uses RBC as a standard method for all insurers to determine and report to the OIC
and to the public on capital adequacy. Currently, RBC excludes provisions for operational and catastrophe
risks.
18. Intermediaries
Many of the COB conduct requirements for intermediaries are new and have not yet been fully tested in the
market, and supervisory programs for brokers, agents and insurers are still evolving.
19. Conduct of Business
•
Many COB requirements are new to the market and have just been implemented. While the OIC has
engaged in extensive consultation and provision of implementation assistance, time will tell whether or
not they are being fully adhered to.
•
Requirements concerning the use of client information by insurers are basic and do not guard against
misuse of client information for purposes like unwanted cross selling of products.
•
Conflict of interest/disclosure of compensation requirements for agents and intermediaries should be
enhanced.
