Question

Insurers are required to conduct adequate reporting on the funds to apply the look through approach. If the look through approach cannot be applied (whether because of the investment policy or inadequate reporting), then the investment may need to be treated as type 2 equity with 49% + SA. When this happens, would this fund be still considered to have separately Concentration Risk contributed to the whole investment portfolio?

Answer

This question has been rejected because the issue it deals with is already explained or addressed in Article 184 of the Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/35. Article 184(2) provides a closed list of assets to be excluded from the calculation base of the market risk concentration sub-module. Should the fund not fall under any of the exclusions of Article 184(2), it would be part of the calculation base of the market risk concentration sub-module.
