Solvency II Directive prompts partnership

Wednesday, July 28th, 2010

As the Solvency II Directive continues to dominate the agenda for many UK financial services companies JMR UK and Magellan are collaborating to provide a complete solution.

‘We have extensive experience in the financial services sector, working on mission critical IT projects, and have a strong track record of delivering on time and in budget. Working with Magellan we can implement changes needed by the Solvency II Directive at the IT level to ensure insurance companies meet the necessary requirements on time,’ says Kali Bagary, Managing Director of JMR UK Consulting.

Solvency II sets out new strengthened EU-wide requirements on capital adequacy and risk management for insurers that aims to increase policyholder protection, and the impact will have an effect on companies at many different levels. The partnership of the two companies will ensure the re-use and implementation of best practice across the firms to deliver the desired results.

Kesh Sharma, Managing Director of Magellan says ‘Solvency II is not just a compliance issue and is something that everybody has to do. We recognized the need to be able to offer a complete solution and have teamed up with JMR UK as they have an in-depth technical knowledge and strong IT delivery capabilities.

The joint proposition to deliver Solvency II services is based on combining the benefits of lower rates, with externally audited programme of governance that delivers at every level to help companies meet Solvency II requirements. ‘For companies needing to take action now to comply with the Solvency II Directive, due to be implemented in 1st November 2012, we are able to offer a cohesive solution to meet their needs. We are looking forward to building a strong and strategic partnership with Magellan,’ concludes Bagary.
