Approved reinsurers must have a rating compatible with the type of business reinsured, depending on whether they have a short or long accounting run ‑ off.

2.6 Risk of reinsurer insolvency Outward reinsurance consists of transferring to the reinsurer a portion of the risks accepted by the ceding company. They are regularly reviewed to monitor and limit the credit risk on third ‑ party reinsurers.

3. Market risks The general system for managing risks relating to Asset/Liability Management and investment operations is specified in the Group Asset/Liability Management and investment risk policy approved by the Groupama Assurances Mutuelles Board of Directors. There are several categories of major market risks to which Groupama might be subject:

3.1 3.1.1

Interest rate risk Type of and exposure to interest rate risk

During a period of interest rate volatility, the Group’s financial margins might be affected. Specifically, a drop in interest rates would have a negative effect on the profitability of the investments. As such, during a period of low interest rates, the financial performance of the Group might be affected. Conversely, in the event of an increase in rates, the Group may have to face a rush of redemptions for these contracts, which would lead to the sale of a portion of the bond portfolio under unfavourable market conditions. The consequences of changes in interest rates would also impact SCR/MCR hedging.
