01 / The institution

Ministère de l’Économie et des Finances — Unité de Supervision et de Contrôle des Assurances

The Ministry of Economy and Finance supervises insurers through its insurance supervision unit, set up in 2012. There is no risk-based solvency framework; an autonomous supervisor has been proposed but not created.
