Ageas prepares for Solvency II regulation
01- 06 : Start Solvency II / QIS 1
• A 3-pillar risk based approach,
harmonised across Europe
• Two levels – a “Target” Standard Capital

Minimum Capital Requirement (MCR)
• QIS 1: tested level of prudence in
technical provisions
06 : QIS 2
• Tested first version of
solo Standard Capital

70’s - 90’s : Solvency I
• A simple factor-based
approach capital requirements
based on accounting
valuations and volumes
07 : QIS 3
• Tested refinements of Standard
approach – measure financial
impact on SII balance sheet
• Tested first version of Group
SCR: group diversification and
eligible elements of capital
08-mid 09 : QIS 4
• Solvency II Directive and
CEIOPS advice on
implementing measure
• Test and refinements of
standards approach
(calculations and calibrations)
10 : QIS 5
• Test focusing on the full SII
framework – identify areas for
enhancement (processes,
procedures, infrastructure, other)
• Further refinements of standard
approach, stresses and calibrations,
own funds and technical provisiosn
Solvency II programme management in place following a defined internal implementation plan
towards Solvency II compliance
Participation in previous QIS and impact of CEIOPS advise on implementing measures assessment
completed using the QIS 4 framework.
Impact of QIS 5 under study, results to be communicated to regulators by Nov 15
Still significant uncertainty around the Standard Capital Requirements standard approach, but so far
all indications show a positive capital position under Solvency II.

• Solvency II in force
• Regulatory submissions
• Prepared for first required

Net-of-tax valuation call option on BNP Paribas shares estimated at EUR 759 mio;Value as per 30/06/10
Ageas announced the decision to liquidate sub-holding Fortis Brussels SA/NV (now Brussels
Liquidation Holding)
As a result deferred tax liability of EUR 257 mio on value call option can be offset by deferred tax
assets of the same amount of ageas SA/NV
Taxation
Ageas has opted to move to a gradual exercise strategy in accordance with a disciplined
methodology over the contractually foreseen exercise period (from 10/10/10 til 09/10/16)
Decision now taken to move to a gradual exercise, in order to minimise the impact of the implied
volatility of the shares on the value of the call option ► use volatility without a 7%-size-discount
Exercise strategy
Implied volatility (consensus) up from 27% to 39%*
Dividend yield up from 3.565% to 5.208%
