In this paper, we demonstrate that the derivation of the calibration parameters for the equity risk module with about 25%, on average, the most significant risk component of insurance companies’ total SCR is seriously flawed and gives rise to spurious and highly erratic parameters. As a consequence, an implementation of the Standard Formula with the currently proposed calibration settings is likely to produce inaccurate, erratic and biased capital requirements for equity-risk and, thus, to defeat the purpose of the EU’s Solvency II Directive.
