+Article 16 2. |
Article 16 2.The available solvency margin shall consist of the assets of the IORP free of any foreseeable liabilities, less any intangible items, including:
(a)
the paid-up share capital or, in the case of an IORP taking the form of a mutual undertaking, the effective initial fund plus any accounts of the members of the mutual undertaking which fulfil the following criteria:
(i)
the memorandum and articles of association must stipulate that payments may be made from those accounts to members of the mutual undertaking only insofar as this does not cause the available solvency margin to fall below the required level or, after the dissolution of the undertaking, where all the undertaking's other debts have been settled;
(ii)
the memorandum and articles of association must stipulate, with respect to any payments referred to in point (i) for reasons other than the individual termination of membership in the mutual undertaking, that the competent authorities must be notified at least one month in advance and can prohibit the payment within that period; and
(iii)
the relevant provisions of the memorandum and articles of association may be amended only after the competent authorities have declared that they have no objection to the amendment, without prejudice to the criteria referred to in points (i) and (ii);
(b)
reserves (statutory and free) not corresponding to underwriting liabilities;
(c)
the profit or loss brought forward after deduction of dividends to be paid; and
(d)
insofar as authorised under national law, profit reserves appearing in the balance sheet where they may be used to cover any losses which may arise and where they have not been made available for distribution to members and beneficiaries. The available solvency margin shall be reduced by the amount of own shares directly held by the IORP. 1. Overview
