The circular specifies the application of shocks to mortality, longevity, and disability-morbidity rates when calculating the Solvency Capital Requirement under the standard formula for Belgian insurance and reinsurance undertakings. It mandates that companies apply upward shocks to mortality and disability-morbidity incidence rates and downward shocks to disability-morbidity recovery rates, ensuring post-shock rate values do not exceed 1. For contracts with multiple health states, transition rates to worse states are treated as disability-morbidity rates and those to better states as recovery rates, with only persistence rates adjusted to ensure the sum of transition rates remains 1. These orientations apply from 23 March 2016.
