Swiss Solvency Test (SST)

The Swiss Solvency Test ( SST ) is used to assess the capitalisation of an insurance company. Insurance companies are required to submit an SST report to SFMA for review at least once a year.

The Swiss Solvency Test ( SST ) is a modern supervisory tool which adopts a risk-based and total balance sheet approach. Insurance companies are required to provide a market conform assessment of the value of their assets and liabilities. Possible changes to these balance sheet positions are then modelled over a one-year period in order to arrive at the total required capital.
