On suspending insurance and reinsurance licences

By its Order No. OD-2014, dated 6 August 2015, the Bank of Russia suspended the insurance and reinsurance licences of the public joint-stock company Russian Insurance Centre (registration number in the unified state register of insurance agents 0159).

The decision is taken due to the insurer’s failure to duly meet the Bank of Russia instruction, particularly, financial stability and solvency requirements in terms of creating insurance reserves and equity, procedure and conditions to invest equity and insurance reserve funds. The decision becomes effective the day it is published in the Bank of Russia Bulletin.

The suspension of licence prohibits the insurance agent from entering into new contracts of insurance and introducing amendments resulting in increase in insurance agent’s obligations under the current contracts.

The insurance company must accept notifications of claim and meet its obligations.
