Unlocking Sub-Investment Grade Private Debt Opportunities under Solvency UK

Wed 04 Feb 2026 -
12:00 - 13:00

The Solvency UK reforms, particularly the removal of the Matching Adjustment (MA) cap on sub-investment grade (SIG) assets, mark a significant shift in the investment landscape for many UK life insurers. Our presentation will explore how this regulatory evolution creates new opportunities for insurers to enhance returns and diversify portfolios through BB-rated private credit—an asset class historically overlooked due to the “BBB cliff-edge”.

We will share insights on how BB-rated private debt can complement insurers’ broader investment strategy while remaining aligned with the Prudent Person Principle. The session will cover practical considerations including credit risk assessment, MA derivation, governance enhancements, real-world case studies highlighting ESG-integrated investments in sectors like clean energy, healthcare, and digital infrastructure.
