Recital 83

(83) In some insurance or reinsurance groups, an intermediate parent undertaking other than an insurance or reinsurance undertaking or a third-country insurance or reinsurance undertaking acquires and holds participations in subsidiary undertakings where those subsidiary undertakings are exclusively or mainly third-country insurance or reinsurance undertakings. Under current rules, if those intermediate parent undertakings do not hold a participation in at least one insurance or reinsurance subsidiary undertaking which has its head office in the Union, they are not treated as insurance holding companies for the purposes of group solvency calculation, although the nature of their risks are very similar. Therefore, the rules should be amended so that such holding companies of third-country insurance and reinsurance undertakings are treated in the same manner as insurance holding companies for the purposes of group solvency calculation.
