Term · Insurance and risk management · MLC-T-INS-003117

A financial metric that measures an insurer's ability to meet its long-term financial obligations, calculated as the ratio of its capital and surplus to its net written premiums or total assets. A higher solvency ratio indicates a stronger financial position and greater capacity to absorb losses. Regulatory bodies often set minimum solvency ratio requirements.
