Dieter Wemmer elected new chairman of EcoFin committee

Dieter Wemmer, CFO of Allianz Group, has been elected chairman of the Economic & Finance (EcoFin) Committee of Insurance Europe. Insurance Europe is the insurance association of Europe and the EcoFin Committee oversees its work on regulatory, accounting and investment-related issues. It plays a vital role in shaping the European insurance industry’s response to developments in these areas.

 

Allianz is pleased to further deepen the engagement and cooperation with Europe’s leading industry association, especially against the background of a continuously challenging regulatory agenda and economic environment.

 

In this context, the upcoming finalization and implementation of Solvency II in Europe and the development of new global regulatory requirements for large insurers – both to happen by 2016 – as well as the ongoing low-interest rate environment and lackluster growth in many economies pose material challenges, but also opportunities to the industry.

 

As a leading global insurer, Allianz has a vital interest in a strong and consistent European industry voice on relevant issues and remains committed to help shaping the future of the industry with all relevant stakeholders.

Dieter Wemmer is the new chairman of the Economic & Finance Committee of the association Insurance Europe.
