AXA urges EU to prioritize insurance and pension products

8 Jul 2025
Topic — The EU is developing a blueprint for savings and investment accounts to boost retail capital market participation.
Message — AXA recommends prioritizing occupational pension products and insurance-based solutions to mobilize long-term capital. They argue for national subsidiarity over one-size-fits-all models and demand a stable prudential framework. Finally, they call for finalizing Solvency II rules to reduce unnecessary constraints on risk-taking.123
Why — This would allow insurers to deploy more capital by reducing strict capital requirements and regulatory volatility.45
Impact — Banking institutions may lose liquidity as savings shift from short-term deposit accounts to insurance-based investments.6
