Digital Tools
Digital Tools for insurance and pension
Calculation and reporting technology for the insurance and pension sector to automate compliance and reporting requirements, and give users full control, history, and transparency.
Actuo’s core element consists of our specialized team of industry experts. However, we also have a unique software suite for the insurance and pension sector, which supports our team in their deliveries to our clients. Our digital tools have been built to accommodate international financial reporting standards as well as to assist the business development process, and below you can find descriptions of each tool.
Solvency II
Our Solvency II standard solution can be implemented for one or more of the Solvency II pillars. Since automatic dataflow between the pillars is a key feature, the most common choice among our clients is to use the solution for all three pillars.
With our team you get professional Solvency II consultancy and IT assistance – from basic support to full business process outsourcing. The installation can be hosted by the client on premise or in the cloud.
The platform gives you
- A fully Solvency II compliant platform with audibility and traceability
- Historical formulas and data storage, including restore functionality
- Flexible data format, incl. spreadsheet uploads and database integrations
- Automation scripts to perform manual steps
- Customizable dashboard and workflows
- Comprehensive data sourcing guidelines and model descriptions
- No control gaps
IFRS 17
With our digital tool for IFRS17 reporting, your IFRS 17 implementation can be developed in an effective, lean and iterative way, minimizing the risk of investing in systems and developments that are unnecessary. The goal is to keep it as simple as possible, and not add unnecessary complexity.
With deep knowledge and experience of the Solvency II implementation, and how to develop an end-to-end solution for this, we now deliver the same advantages, principles, and technology foundation for your IFRS 17 implementation.
We recommend an approach where data, calculations and reports are built in an integrated, controlled, and audited environment, for an agile and end-to-end IFRS 17 process.
Integration & Control
The integration process will focus on connecting current client solutions, such as a Stochastic Calculation Tool, DWH, General Ledger system etc., and implement an IFRS 17 Data Mart that will collect and distribute data between back-end systems calculation tools and reporting solutions.
The key is to set up the client specific parameters and calculation rules, in a controlled environment, so users and stakeholders of reporting can easily understand the actions and data that their results are based on.

Our IORP II solution is an EIOPA compliant reporting tool with clear traceability and XBRL validations. The solution is continuously maintained by Actuo, who monitors EIOPA and delivers regulatory compliant upgrades of the solution, ensuring that clients stay compliant.
