1 This section provides information on the performance of the Sava Insurance Group based on IFRS accounts; therefore, figures do not equal those calculated based on Solvency II.
The year 2020 was marked by the Covid-19 pandemic (hereinafter: Covid-19), which increased the uncertainty regarding the achievement of financial targets and strategic goals, and impacted the risks to which the Sava Insurance Group (hereinafter: the Group) is exposed. Due to the extraordinary situation in 2020, several interim ad hoc (partial) own risk and solvency assessments (ORSA) were conducted in addition to the regular ORSA. These were then considered at all Group levels and subsequently reported to the Slovenian Insurance Supervision Agency. In this way, we monitored the impact of changes in the risk profile and market situation on the Group's solvency position on an ongoing basis.
Due to the impact of Covid-19, there has been an increase in certain risks. We have been operating in exceptional circumstances for almost a year and have obtained a better understanding of the risk than at the onset of the pandemic. Risks are identified, monitored, analysed and managed on a regular basis. We believe these risks are well managed in the Group.
The Group employs nearly 2,700 people (calculated based on a full-time equivalent basis). We provide insurance and reinsurance coverage for all lines of business, offering: • a respectful, honest and sincere partnership,
Profile of the Sava Insurance Group The Sava Insurance Group is one of the largest insurance groups in south-east Europe. As at 31 December 2020, the insurance part of the Group was composed of a reinsurer and eight insurers based in Slovenia and in the countries of the Adriatic region. In addition to the (re)insurance companies, the Group is made up of seven non-insurance companies. tap into the synergies resulting from the growth in business volume, and the acquisition of Vita is also an important step for the Group in growing partnerships with banks and developing the bancassurance sales channel for marketing insurance products, which is one of the Group's main strategic directions.
Sava Re has been operating in international reinsurance markets for over 40 years and in the Slovenian primary insurance market, through its former subsidiary Zavarovalnica Tilia, since 1998. The Group expanded to some other markets of the former Yugoslavia through the acquisition of six insurance companies between 2006 and 2009 and through greenfield investments in two life insurance companies in 2008. In 2015 and 2018, the Group entered the Slovenian and Macedonian pensions market, and in 2018 it entered the Slovenian market of assistance services. In 2019, Sava Re acquired an 85% stake in Sava Infond, an investment fund management company. In 2020, the Group entered the Slovenian private healthcare market by acquiring the Bled Diagnostic Centre through its associate ZTSR. The acquisition of Vita in 2020 strengthened the Group's market position in Slovenia, and the Group now ranks second in terms of insurance market share. These acquisitions allow the Group to In 2020, Standard & Poor's and AM Best reaffirmed the Sava Insurance Group's "A"-ratings with a stable outlook, which reflect the Group's robust capital position and make it easier for the Group to obtain business in international reinsurance markets. Business and performance1 In 2020, the Sava Insurance Group generated EUR 674.9 million in operating revenue, up 15.5% compared to 2019. The 2020 net profit was EUR 56.4 million, a 12.3% increase over the previous year and better than planned. Return on equity was 13.3% in 2020, 1.3 p.p. above the target return set in the Group's 2020–2022 strategy. In 2020, the Group wrote EUR 679.7 million in gross
The Sava Insurance Group's core strengths lie in its regional knowledge, reliability, responsiveness, flexibility and financial strength. We exceed client expectations by seeking continual improvement, building relationships in a responsible, frank and respectful manner, and playing an active role in our environment.
Our guiding principle is to build long-term relationships with our clients and partners that will allow us to achieve our common goals throughout all economic cycles.

premiums, an increase of 13.6% over the previous year. The growth in gross premiums written was contributed by Slovenian life business (53% growth), mostly attributable to the acquisition of Vita, Slovenian non-life insurance business (8% growth), reinsurance business (18% growth) and non-Slovenian life insurance business (9% growth), whereas non-Slovenian non-life premium income shrank by 6% year on year.
The net expense ratio improved by 2.1 p.p. year on year, which was primarily driven by the inclusion of Vita in the Group but also by growth in most other operating segments and measures to contain costs taken by the Group to ease the negative financial impact of Covid-19 on operations.
Gross claims paid in the Slovenian non-life segment declined significantly in 2020 compared to 2019, primarily in motor insurance, reflecting a lower claims frequency owing to Covid-19. On the other hand, there were more claims in the reinsurance segment in 2020 and significantly more major losses, many also related to Covid-19. The 2020 result was impacted by Covid-19-related reinsurance claims, amounting to EUR 10.8 million. Also Covid-19-related was the increase in net claims incurred in business written abroad under the freedom of services rules (hereinafter: FoS business). As a result, the Group set aside claims provisions for potential legal expenses and claims because of the uncertainties surrounding new case law and regulatory practices regarding business interruption coverage of Covid-19-related claims written in the Republic of Ireland and Great Britain. In this regard, the Group reserved EUR 6.4 million at the end of 2020.
Despite the challenging business environment in the year, the Group's 2020 incurred loss ratio remained at the 2019 level.
In 2020, the Group made a net profit of EUR 56.4 million, an increase of 12.3% over the previous year. The increase was driven by good results in the life and non-life insurance segments, partly offset by the challenging claims experience in international reinsurance business. Higher profitability was also driven by the acquisition of Vita, which resulted in EUR 9.9 million of one-off income from negative goodwill.
Because of Covid-19, the year 2020 was also special regarding dividends from insurance companies. Sava Re paid no dividends in 2020, nor did it receive any from its subsidiaries following regulators' recommendations to retain profits. The capital strength of its major subsidiaries increased in 2020 because of the profits generated in 2019 and 2020, which will allow dividend payments to the parent once restrictions on dividend distributions are lifted and the Covid-19-related claims risk declines. The supervisory board will decide on the appropriation of Sava Re's profit when considering the unaudited results for 2020, taking into account the recommendations of the Insurance Supervision Agency.
The 2020 return on the investment portfolio was 1.6%, which is 0.2 p.p. above the plan. The portfolio of predominantly highly rated government and corporate bonds continues to show resilience in the face of financial market volatility. The key goal of the Group's investment policy is to maintain low volatility and a high level of security of assets intended for covering obligations, as well as to ensure high liquidity and risk diversification.
The Group is also making good progress in its strategy and is evolving into a customer-centric, modern, digital, socially responsible and sustainability-oriented insurance group. In 2020, we stepped up projects for developing digital solutions to provide customers with faster and easier access to services. We also placed special attention on investment opportunities in environmental and sustainability-oriented projects.

The Group calculates its capital requirement in accordance with the Solvency II standard formula as defined in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/35 (hereinafter: the Standard Formula). The Group's risk profile is dominated by non-life underwriting risk and the exposure to market risk is also large. The Group is less exposed to other categories of risk: life underwriting risk, health underwriting risk, counterparty default risk and operational risk. Apart from the above risks, which are captured by the Standard Formula, the Group is also exposed to liquidity risk, and – owing to the challenging internal and external environment – to strategic risk.
The following table shows the Group solvency capital requirement in accordance with the Standard Formula (hereinafter: the Group SCR) by risk module.

The Group manages its capital to ensure that it always maintains sufficient own funds to meet its obligations and regulatory capital requirement. The composition of eligible own funds held to ensure capital adequacy must comply with regulatory requirements. The level of own funds must also be sufficient to achieve the Group's strategic and operational goals.
The allocation of own funds to business activities must ensure the achievement of the Group's target return on equity.
The Group prepares its business and strategic plans based on its risk strategy, which defines its risk appetite. When drafting the business and strategic plans, it makes sure that the plans are in line with the risk appetite, making adjustments if necessary. On the whole, the Group seeks to achieve an efficient allocation of capital.

As at 31 December 2020, most eligible own funds to cover the Group SCR were tier one funds. In addition, eligible own funds also include subordinated liabilities classified as tier 2 eligible own funds. As at 31 December 2020, the Group complied with the regulatory requirements at the level and quality of capital to cover the Group SCR and the Group MSR because its solvency ratio substantially exceeded the regulatory requirement of 100% and stood at 198%, and the MCR ratio was 373%.

As these circumstances could have a material impact on the Group's business performance and its solvency position up until year-end 2020 and in 2021, the management board, with the consent of the supervisory board, decided that it was in the best interest of Sava Re, the Sava Insurance Group and its policyholders to cancel the general meeting of shareholders scheduled for 16 November 2020 and to temporarily suspend the payment of dividends. The Company announced the cancellation of the notice of the 37th general meeting of Sava Re d.d. on 6 November 2020, in the same way as the notice of the general meeting.
• Following its regular annual rating review in October 2020, the rating agency AM Best affirmed the "A" (excellent) insurer financial strength rating of Sava Re. The outlook was stable.

On 5 March 2021, Sava Re received a letter from the Insurance Supervision Agency stating that, due to the uncertain situation regarding the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic and the associated uncertain consequences for the economy and the insurance sector, the Insurance Supervision Agency expects that, until 30 September 2021, insurance undertakings, reinsurance undertakings and pension companies suspend dividend payments, not enter into irrevocable commitments to pay dividends and refrain from buying own shares intended to reward shareholders. Furthermore, the recommendation of the Agency set certain criteria for companies by which, contrary to the recommendation, the management and supervisory boards decide to propose the appropriation of the distributable profit prior to the above date, and it required such companies to demonstrate compliance with the principle of prudence in their decisions. Evidence must be based on stress test results and their impacts on financial stability, liquidity and the solvency ratio. The Company published the Agency's letter via the SEOnet system on 8 March 2021.
On 2 April 2021, Sava Re received a letter from the Insurance Supervision Agency stating that, in order for it to fully comply with recommendations to harmonise the treatments of supervised entities in the European Union, the Agency amends its recommendation regarding dividend payments issued on 8 March 2021 so that: (1) the Agency expects companies that are the parent of a group of companies to consider the financial position of both the company as well as of the group of companies they control when deciding on the payment of

dividends before 30 September 2021, and (2) the Agency will take into account the specificities of the business model when examining the profitability criterion of the supervised entity. The Company published the Agency's letter via the SEOnet system on 2 April 2021.
For the purpose of substantiating its ability to pay dividends in 2021, Sava Re compiled documents for the Agency to demonstrate its financial stability, solvency, liquidity and resilience to stress scenarios (including Covid-19 impacts). The supervisory and management boards prepared a draft resolution for the general meeting to the effect that shareholders be paid a dividend of EUR 0.85 gross per share, in total EUR 13,173,041.60, or 23.4% of the Group's 2020 net profit. The Company presented evidence to the Agency that it was capable of paying out the proposed dividend because the Group demonstrates a robust solvency position with a solvency ratio of 198% as at 31 December 2020. On 16 April 2021, the Company published its notice of general meeting, proposing a dividend distribution at the above level.
The Group uses the full consolidation method for all its companies in the preparation of the IFRS consolidated financial statements, except for the associates ZTSR and G2I, which have been consolidated using the equity method. For the purpose of valuation of the Solvency II balance sheet, however, all Group (re)insurance undertakings and all ancillary services undertakings are consolidated in accordance with article 335 1(a) of the Delegated Regulation, the Sava Pokojninska pension company and Sava Infond are included in the consolidation in accordance with article 335 1(e) of the Delegated Regulation, whereas Sava Penzisko Društvo and the associates ZTSR and G2I are included in accordance with article 335 1(f) of the Delegated Regulation.

In 2020, gross premiums written grew by 13.5%, and the breakdown changed somewhat because of Vita's inclusion in the Group in 2019. Non-life insurance premiums account for 83.5% (2019: 88.4%) of total premiums, and life insurance premiums for 16.5% (2019: 11.6%). Gross premiums written are dominated by two lines of business: (1) motor vehicle liability insurance and proportional reinsurance, and (2) fire and other damage to property insurance and proportional reinsurance, which together account for 38.8% of total gross premiums written (2019: 41.9%).
Below we set out the movements in gross premiums written by operating segment as analysed by the Group.
Gross premiums written in the reinsurance segment in 2020 increased by 18.3% from the previous year to EUR 106.8 million. Premium growth was especially achieved in Asian markets (through organic growth and new contracts). Premiums for the 2020 underwriting year increased 8.5% (or EUR 7.6 million) over 2019, which includes the drop caused by the economic downturn due to Covid-19. This increase in premiums is the result of positive price movements in markets, where in the 1 January 2020 renewals and even more so in the mid-year renewals clear indications of hardening were seen and consequently price increases. This partly reflects rate increases in programmes heavily hit in the previous year (Japan: price increases of about 30–50%). Rate increases also indicate a general trend because of past developments and the response to the uncertainty related to Covid-19. In addition, supported by our good repute and strong profile, we managed to increase our shares on promising existing treaties while expanding our portfolio with new, previously unattainable, opportunities. The premiums for past underwriting years were also higher, by EUR 9.0 million, especially in proportional business. Net premiums earned grew by 15.9% in 2020 compared to 2019 as the result of an increase in gross premiums written.
Gross non-life insurance premiums increased by 5.1% to EUR 439.4 million in 2020. The increase is chiefly the result of growth in both the non-life business of the Slovenian part of Zavarovalnica Sava and the Kosovo non-life insurer. Accordingly, net premiums earned also grew, by 8.1% in total. The movement in gross premiums in most other markets was negatively impacted by developments related to Covid-19. As a result of Covid-19, gross non-life premiums written by the non-Slovenian insurers declined and were left without assistance business because of closed borders, and with less motor business because of a lower number of registered vehicles as a result of a decline in economic activity.
Slovenia-sourced gross non-life premiums grew by 7.8%, or EUR 26.4 million. An amount of EUR 13.5 million of growth in Zavarovalnica Sava was contributed by growth in the gross premiums of FoS business, which the company generated in cooperation with various EU partners. The highest increase in FoS premiums was recorded in property, ships hull and general liability, whereas the majority of motor insurance was terminated due to market changes (deteriorating conditions) and the company's greater selectivity.
The increase in gross premiums written was driven by the EUR 10.6 million rise in non-life premiums at the Slovenian part of Zavarovalnica Sava, excluding FoS business, and the EUR 2.3 million increase in non-life premiums at the insurer Vita. In the aforementioned period, the Slovenian insurance market achieved 2.9% growth in non-life gross premiums, excluding FoS business and accepted co-insurance, and the Slovenian part of Zavarovalnica Sava achieved 3.4% premium growth.
Most of the growth in gross non-life premiums at the Slovenian part of Zavarovalnica Sava, excluding FoS business, was achieved in private motor business as a result of an increase in the number of policies and higher average
premiums. In March and April 2020, insurance sales were impeded by Covid-19 restrictions; however, Zavarovalnica Sava managed to offset lost gross premiums after restrictions were lifted in May and June. The circumstances relating to Covid-19 restrictions deteriorated again in the last two and a half months of 2020, which again affected the company's results. Nevertheless, in 2020, Zavarovalnica Sava recorded 5.0% growth in gross motor own damage premiums, as well as an increase in gross property premiums, in particular because of strong sales of the new "DOM" homeowner's policies, an increase in the average premium and an increase in the number of policyholders.
Gross life premiums written in Slovenia grew by 53.1% in 2020, as the result of Vita's inclusion in the Group (on 31 May 2020). In 2020, gross premiums written by the life insurance part of Zavarovalnica Sava in Slovenia dropped by 5.6% compared to 2019. The company did not manage to write sufficient new business to fully offset premiums lost due to policy maturities, surrenders and deaths. Since joining the Group, Vita generated EUR 46.1 million in gross premiums written. In 2020, gross premiums written by the non-Slovenian life insurers grew by 9.3% year on year, with the largest growth recorded in Serbia, reflecting greater efficiency of the own sales network, as was also the case in Kosovo; however, the Croatian part of Zavarovalnica Sava experienced a decline in gross premiums written as the result of expiring policies (due to maturities, deaths and surrenders) that the company, under the current circumstances, did not manage to compensate for with new business.

Consolidated gross claims paid and net claims incurred rose in 2020 compared to 2019. Below we set out the movements in gross claims paid and claims incurred by operating segment as analysed by the Sava Insurance Group.
In 2020, exchange differences had a positive impact on net claims incurred of the reinsurance segment in the amount of EUR 6.9 million (a negative impact of EUR 1.6 million in 2019). In 2020, net claims incurred, excluding the effect of exchange differences, rose by 30.9% compared to 2019, mainly due to higher claims (primarily due to Covid-19; EUR 10.8 million cumulatively) and a weaker development of old underwriting years in 2020 compared to 2019. The growth in net claims incurred was also driven by organic growth of business (net premiums earned rose by 15.9%). The incurred loss ratio relating to the reinsurance segment (excluding the effect of exchange differences) was 8.5 p.p. weaker compared to 2019, at 83.3% (2019: 74.8%).
The consolidated gross non-life claims paid in 2020 declined by 1.6% to EUR 217.1 million as the result of lower gross nonlife claims of the Group's non-Slovenian non-life insurers. In 2020, consolidated gross non-life claims paid in Slovenia
remained at a similar level to 2019. There was a EUR 9.6 million increase in FoS business (due to portfolio growth), whereas gross claims incurred on policies written in Slovenia declined by EUR 9.2 million as the result of a lower loss frequency in motor insurance during the Covid-19 lockdown, when there were fewer traffic accidents because of reduced motor traffic. Consolidated gross claims paid relating to the non-Slovenian insurers dropped by 9.3%. Fire claims declined, mainly because the Group was hit by a major fire loss in 2019, whereas in 2020 fewer claims were reported. Gross claims also dropped in motor, assistance, accident and health insurance. The decline is mainly the result of fewer claims due to Covid-19. change in the provision for unit-linked business, are higher due to Vita's inclusion in the Group. Of the non-Slovenian insurers, Sava Životno Osiguranje recorded the largest increase in gross claims paid, at 108.9%, which was due to fast portfolio growth, maturities and somewhat higher mortality in 2020. Despite the rise in gross claims paid, net claims incurred in 2020, including the change in other provisions and the change in the provision for unit-linked business of insurers abroad, declined because of the drop in the mathematical provision of Zavarovalnica Sava in Croatia as the result of the run-off of credit life policies and larger amounts paid for surrenders.
In 2020, gross life insurance claims grew by 6.4% to EUR 124.9 million year on year due to Vita's inclusion in the Group. In the life insurance part of Zavarovalnica Sava in Slovenia, the bulk of the maturity benefits incurred in the period related to traditional life policies, specifically EUR 54.7 million, a decline of EUR 10.7 million compared to 2019. Unitlinked life business, where policyholders bear the investment risk, paid out EUR 14.6 million in maturity benefits, down EUR 1.5 million compared to 2019.

11 The "other" segment includes the profit or loss of the companies Sava Pokojninska, Sava Penzisko Društvo, TBS Team24, Save Infond and S Estate.
12 The result of the life segment also includes the net investment income of the life insurance portfolio.
Net operating expenses rose by 7.4% in 2020. In absolute terms, the largest increase was in expenses for life business, and in motor vehicle liability insurance and proportional reinsurance. The 2020 split of net operating expenses by line of business did not change materially compared to 2019. Below we set out the movements in operating expenses by operating segment as analysed by the Group. The commentary covers all elements used in the calculation of net operating expenses (acquisition costs, change in deferred acquisition costs and other operating expenses).
In 2020, acquisition expenses (commissions) of the reinsurance segment rose by 10.9% to EUR 22.1 million (compared to an 18.3% increase in gross premiums written). The share of acquisition costs as a percentage of gross premiums written was 13.4% in 2020 (2019: 22.1%). The change in deferred acquisition costs (an increase in 2020 and a decrease in 2019) is the result of stronger growth in gross premiums written for new business in line with the movement in unearned premiums. In 2020, other operating expenses declined by 5.6% compared with 2019, reflecting cost optimisation due to adjustments to Covid-19 business conditions (reduced business travel, lower commuting expenses and other adjustments). In 2020, the net expense ratio improved by 2.6 p.p. over 2019 to 25.6% as the result of faster growth in net premiums earned compared to net operating expenses.
Consolidated gross non-life insurance premiums increased by 10.8% to EUR 43.5 million in 2020. Growth in acquisition costs is mainly related to growth in FoS and less to growth in other business of the non-life part of Zavarovalnica Sava in Slovenia in the agency's sales channel. Consolidated other operating expenses increased by 2.0% mainly due to the increase in operating expenses in FoS business of the Slovenian part of Zavarovalnica Sava, and partly due to Vita's inclusion in the Group. All non-Slovenian Group companies saw a drop in other
operating expenses, except the Croatian part of Zavarovalnica Sava because of the previous year's only partial consolidation of ERGO (in 2019, the insurance company ERGO was included in the consolidated accounts from April, whereas in 2020 it was part of the Croatian part of Zavarovalnica Sava for the full year). The change in deferred acquisition costs is smaller in 2020, primarily due to the smaller change in the deferred cost of acquiring FoS contracts.
In 2020, acquisition costs of the life segment rose by 33.5% compared with 2019 to EUR 8.8 million because of the inclusion of Vita in the consolidated statements. The difference in the change in deferred acquisition costs between the years chiefly relates to the Slovenian part of Zavarovalnica Sava. Other operating expenses increased by 16.1% in 2020 year on year due to Vita's inclusion in the Group.

In 2020, the gross result of the Group (excluding Sava Pokojninska, Sava Penzisko Društvo, TBS Team 24, Sava Infond and S Estate) increased by 19.8% compared to 2019 to EUR 68.4 million. The life and non-life segments improved the gross result in 2020 compared to 2019, whereas the reinsurance and "other" segments showed weaker performance. The underwriting result in 2020 was better than in 2019 due to the non-life segment, whereas the reinsurance segment saw a deterioration. The investment result deteriorated in both the reinsurance and non-life segments. The result of the life segment improved in 2020 because Vita joined the Group. The "other" segment includes the profit or loss of the companies Sava Pokojninska, Sava Penzisko Društvo, TBS Team 24, Sava Infond13 and S Estate. This segment also includes interest expense on subordinate debt (2020: EUR 2.9 million, 2019: EUR 0.5 million) and the amortisation of contractual customer relationships with Sava Pokojninska and Sava Infond (2020: EUR 1.0 million, 2019: EUR 0.3 million).
In 2020, the reinsurance segment performed more poorly in terms of underwriting result than in 2019, chiefly because of major claims (mainly due to Covid-19; EUR 10.8 million cumulatively) and a weaker development of old underwriting years in 2020 compared to 2019. The increase in net claims incurred was also a result of organic business growth. The weaker investment result was mainly due to lower interest income and lower dividends from financial investments.
The non-life segment improved, largely as the result of improved technical performance. The net investment income of the investment portfolio remained at a comparable level to 2019. The investment return was 1.4% in 2020.
In 2020, the life segment performed better, mainly because Vita joined the Group. The net investment income of the investment portfolio of life insurance business increased by EUR 3.9 million compared to 2019. Despite the unfavourable trends in financial markets, the return on the life insurance investment portfolio remained at the 2019 level of 1.9%, largely supported by the inclusion of Vita's portfolio.

In 2020, investment income totalled EUR 27.9 million, up EUR 3.6 million year on year; excluding exchange differences, investment income increased by EUR 4.9 million. In 2020, the largest part of investment portfolio income was interest income of EUR 16.2 million (accounting for 57.9% of total finance income), down EUR 2.1 million year on year.
In 2020, expenses relating to the investment portfolio increased by EUR 12.0 million compared with 2019, but were up EUR 7.1 million if the effect of exchange differences is excluded. The largest part of investment expenses, excluding the effect of exchange differences, arose from interest expenses relating to the issued subordinated bond of Sava Re.
However, the effect of exchange differences does not fully impact profit or loss since liabilities denominated in a foreign currency move in line with investments in that currency. Exchange differences mainly relate to the assets and liabilities of Sava Re.

Group net investment income totalled EUR 13.3 million in 2020. The largest items of the Group's net investment income are interest income of EUR 12.9 million and gains on disposal of investments of EUR 3.5 million. The large share of interest income is consistent with the composition of the Group's investment portfolio, which is dominated by debt instruments.
The Group discloses unrealised gains and losses on investments designated as available for sale in the fair value reserve line of the balance sheet. The following table shows the movement in the fair value reserve.

The management and supervisory bodies of the parent company are the Group bodies responsible for the proper management and supervision of the entire Group, and for setting up a governance framework appropriate to the structure, business and risks of the Group as a whole and of its members.
The management system selected by each Sava Insurance Group member is proportionate to the nature, scale and complexity of its business operations. Each Group company selects for itself a management system that is optimal for both the company and the Group. As a rule, Group members adopt a one-tier management system, provided this complies with local legislation and is appropriate to the nature, scale and complexity of each company's operations. The Group parent, Zavarovalnica Sava, Vita, Sava Pokojninska, Sava Infond and ZTSR operate on a two-tier management system.
The parent fully exercises its governance function by setting business strategy from the top down, taking into account both the Group as a whole as well as its individual members. In order to ensure optimal capital allocation and resilience of the Group against unforeseen events, capital allocation and capital adequacy are managed on the Group level following the top down principle.
The Group has set up a systematic risk management framework, including risk management at the level of individual companies, appropriate monitoring of the risks of individual companies by the parent as well as risk management at the Group level. The latter takes into account any interaction between the risks of individual companies, in particular risk concentration and other material risks associated with the operation of the Group. The risk strategy sets the risk appetite at both the Group and the individual company levels.
Management and supervisory bodies of Sava Insurance Group subsidiaries individually pursue the same values and corporate governance policies as the parent company, unless otherwise prescribed by law, the local regulator or the proportionality principle. Therefore, the management or supervisory bodies of each Group company, as part of their responsibility for the governance of their company with regard to the implementation of Group policies, ensure that all required adjustments to local legislation are made, as well as any other necessary adjustments. The companies determine which adjustments need to be made to Group policies in accordance with the procedures set out therein, ensuring compliance with applicable laws and regulations as well as with the rules of sound and prudent operation. top management level. The Group organises professional training relating to various business areas several times a year to unify the Group's business processes, transfer knowledge, and promote corporate culture and best practices. B.1.2 Governing bodies Apart from the general meeting, the governing bodies of individual Group members include a management body
In order to ensure transparent and effective governance of Group subsidiaries, the parent company's subsidiary supervision is divided into the following three parts: • governance supervision (through governing bodies), • business function supervision (through heads of business
Twice yearly, Sava Re organises a Group strategic conference to discuss the strategic directions to be applied in the planning of operations of Group companies, enhancements of individual business functions and the current performance of each company. Thus strategic conferences are aimed at improving communication on strategies and policies of the Group at the
(management board, managing director or CEO) and a supervisory body (supervisory board, supervisory committee or board of directors), depending on the legislation and the selection of a one- or two-tier management system.
The governing bodies carry out their duties in accordance with the legislation of each country, company internal rules and in accordance with the general guidelines established by the governance policy and other Group framework policies, the Group's governance rules and its financial control rules.

The general meeting of shareholders is the supreme body of a company through which its shareholders exercise their rights in company matters.
The terms of reference of the general meeting of each company are determined in line with the legislation of each country and the company's articles of association. The terms of reference of the general meeting relate to three areas:
General meetings of shareholders of Group members are generally convened at least once a year, at the latest within the time limit provided by local law. The general meeting may also be convened in other cases, as provided by local law, the Group member's articles of association, and whenever this is in the Group member's interest. As a rule, the general meeting is convened by the company's chief executive body. Local law stipulates the circumstances in which the general meeting may also be convened by other bodies of the company or the shareholders themselves.

preparation of draft resolutions of the supervisory board and the implementation of resolutions of the supervisory board, whereby such committees provide professional support. Notwithstanding the appointment of any committee, decisionmaking remains the responsibility of the supervisory board.
Sava Re has established the following supervisory board committees:
The chief tasks of the individual committees of the supervisory board are set out in detail in the "Solvency and financial condition report of Sava Re d.d. for 2020" (hereinafter: the Sava Re 2020 SFCR) in section B.1.1 Governing bodies.
The areas of responsibility and the composition of supervisory board committees are determined by a special resolution in compliance with applicable regulations, the recommendations of the Corporate Governance Code for Listed Companies and the company's internal acts.
Each committee may adopt its own rules of procedure. Unless it has adopted its own rules of procedure, the rules of procedure of the supervisory board apply together with any necessary conforming changes, for any questions regarding the quorum, decision-making and other points of procedure.
In this section, the term management board is used as a generic term for any management body.
The rules established for the management board in a two-tier
system also apply to the managing directors and executive director in a one-tier system, unless otherwise specified.
The management board provides leadership to and represents the company in its legal transactions. Through its efforts and using its knowledge and experience, the management board pursues the long-term success of the company, ensuring optimal leadership and risk management. The management board defines the company's goals, values, mission, vision and business strategy. Business operations are optimised through an adequate composition of human resources and prudent use of financial resources. This is done in compliance with local law and the company's articles of association and other acts.
The management board is committed to high ethical standards and considers the interests of all stakeholder groups.
As a rule, the management boards of individual Group companies consist of several members in order to ensure that decisions taken are for the benefit of the company and that board members work towards the company's goals in a prudent and responsible manner. The number of members is proportionate to the nature, scale and complexity of each company's business, while there must be clearly determined terms of reference of board members as well as an adequate delimitation of responsibilities. Where local legislation allows for a single-member management board, the company must observe the four-eye principle in decision-making. When designing the management board, each company seeks to take account of diversity in terms of technical knowledge, experience and skills, and the way candidates complement each other so as to form a homogenous team and ensure sound and prudent conduct of the company's business. The terms of reference of individual management board members and the operation of multi-member bodies are governed by internal acts of individual companies (act on the management board / rules of procedure of the management board). The Sava Re management board in 2020 In 2020, the management board of the Group's parent comprised the following members: Marko Jazbec (chair), Srečko Čebron (until 31 May 2020), Jošt Dolničar, Polona Pirš Zupančič and Peter Skvarča (since 19 June 2020). In 2020, the composition of the Sava Re management board changed: Srečko Čebron retired on 31 May 2020 so that from 1 June 2020 the board operated temporarily with only three members. The Sava Re management board resumed as a fourmember body on 19 June 2020 when Peter Skvarča started his five-year term of office. The average age of the members of the management board is 47. All management board members are citizens of the Republic of Slovenia.
The management board of each Group company reports periodically (at least quarterly) to the company's supervisory board in a comprehensive and accurate manner on:

The risk management system is one of the key building blocks of the system of governance. The management of the Group's parent company as well as of each Group member must ensure that both the Group as a whole and each individual company have in place an effective risk management system based on an appropriate organisational structure. This takes into account the scope, nature and complexity of the risks to which the Group or individual companies are exposed.
For more details on Group risk management, see section B3 Risk management system including the own risk and solvency assessment of this report.
The chief tasks of a key function holder at the Group level are:
The key functions are integrated into the organisational structure and decision-making processes to strengthen the three-lines-of-defence framework of the Group's risk management system, as described in section B.3.1 Risk
With due regard for the proportionality principle, the risk management system of individual Group companies has key functions integrated into the organisational structure and decision-making processes. The key functions discharge their duties independently from each other and from other organisational units of the company. The key functions directly report to the management board. Where any key function is carried out by an independent organisational unit, the key function holder must be ensured direct access to the management board. At the Group level, the parent has established four functions defined by applicable law as key functions of the risk management system (hereinafter: key functions): the actuarial function, risk management function, compliance function and internal audit function. Key functions are integrated in the Group's system of governance and generally also perform the role of the parent company's key function in addition to their role at the Group level. They have access to all information, data and reports required for their smooth operation.
The parent company has organised these key functions as services of the risk management system that report directly to the management board and are involved in decision-making processes.

management organisation. All four key functions cooperate closely with each other, regularly exchanging information they need for their functioning.
As a rule, key function holders must not both perform and oversee the same tasks. Processes must be organised so as to allow separate operation of individual lines of defence. Key function holders must not be members of the supervisory board or of any of its committees of any Group company in order to minimise potential conflicts of interest. Key function holders must immediately report any potential conflict of interest to the management board.
If, in accordance with the proportionality principle, key functions are assigned additional activities and tasks, there must be in place appropriate internal measures and mechanisms for managing any potential conflicts of interest arising from such activities of a key function. Measures and mechanisms for avoiding situations potentially leading to conflicts of interest are detailed in the internal regulations governing the operation of individual key functions.
Notwithstanding the organisational position of any key function within a company, these must be directly integrated in the Group's framework of key functions. This establishes a direct link between the key function of a subsidiary and the Group, providing for direct flow of information between the second and third lines of defence, ensuring comprehensive and consistent compliance risk management across the Group.
The key functions perform duties as stipulated by insurance law, including regulations based thereon.
The operation of the risk management function is discussed in detail in section B.3.1 Risk management organisation, the

Annually, the Group key function holders at the Group and parent company levels issue a joint statement that they have
Key function holders at the Group and parent company levels meet regularly, as a general rule once a month, to exchange opinions, discuss topical issues and specifics of the business in the current period. They also harmonise the various annual work plans of the key function holders they are required to draw up under the applicable legislation or internal acts. In addition, they exchange findings from individual audit reviews, findings and recommendations from the areas of work covered by each key function holder, and discuss the annual or other reports on the work of each key function holder. In accordance with the applicable legislation and internal acts, they report on findings and follow up on recommendations to management and supervisory bodies. management, actuarial affairs, data quality management, information security, internal audit and remuneration. The terms of reference, powers and composition of committees are set out in internal regulations adopted by the management board of the company that established the committee. Sava Re has set up these committees at the Group level: • the risk management committee and • the actuarial committee.
The management board of the parent company may, by its decision, set up committees that cover both the Group level and the parent company. In addition, the management board of any Group subsidiary may, if necessary, establish a committee by passing a resolution. Committees have an advisory role. They consider issues from specific areas, draft management board resolutions and oversee their implementation, and perform other tasks requiring specific expertise, thus providing professional support to the management board.
Committees are an integral part of the system of governance of the Group and individual Group companies. They deal with issues from areas, such as: risk management, asset and liability
The chief tasks of the individual committees are set out in detail in the Sava Re 2020 SFCR, section B.1.5 Committees of the governance system.

The Sava Insurance Group remuneration policy lays down the framework for the planning, implementation and monitoring of remuneration systems and schemes that support the Group's long-term strategy and risk management policy.
The remuneration policy applies to Sava Re and is recommended guidance to other Group companies for all employees at all organisational levels: management bodies, senior and lower management, key function holders and other employees.
The remuneration policy aims to build a remuneration system that is competitive and efficient as well as transparent and internally fair. The key principles of the policy incorporate the main principles of ethical and sustainable practices and operations.
The chief principles of the remuneration policy are:
Group companies follow the following guidelines in the designing of remuneration systems and schemes:
It is recommended that Group companies design a remuneration structure encompassing:
The base salary is laid down based on the employee's role and position, taking into account professional experience, responsibilities, complexity of the job and the situation on the local labour market. The range of base salaries for individual positions is laid down in the internal regulations of individual companies.
Performance-based pay depends on the Company's business performance and the employee's individual performance or, in the case of managers, also the performance of the unit they head. Performance-based pay is intended to motivate and reward the most successful employees who significantly contribute to the achievement of sustainable performance, meet or exceed the agreed objectives, strengthen long-term relationships with clients and generate income. Individual performance-based pay depends on the attainment of predefined individual goals and other tasks in a manner consistent with expected behaviours and competencies. Business performance-based pay depends on a performance indicator or a combination of performance indicators of the company and/or the Group. As a rule, performance-based pay may range from 0% to 30% of total annual remuneration, except for direct sales jobs, where the major part of remuneration is linked to sales performance. However, in order for performance-based pay to be paid out, a company's financial position must not fall below a certain threshold. The system is flexible and includes the option of not paying out any performance-based pay.
The performance-based pay system and scheme for the management board is considered and approved by the supervisory board. Performance-based pay for the management board is based on the achievement of the goals and performance of the company as a whole or the Group of which it is a part.
The composition and level of performance-based pay for all position levels is laid down in each Group company's internal regulations.
The types and level of potential additional benefits and incentives are laid down in each company's internal regulations. Employees may join collective supplementary pension saving schemes.
Additional remuneration upon termination of an employment contract (other than prescribed by law and the employment contract – termination benefits) is based on the achievement of long-term goals. Provision has been made that no additional remuneration is paid out if goals have not been achieved.
As a rule, Group companies grant loans to neither their employees nor members of the management or supervisory boards; accordingly, there were no such transactions in 2020.
The Group companies run no share option schemes.
The Group companies run no additional pension schemes.

All transactions among Group companies are carried out at arm's length, to a limited extent by refunding expenses incurred in rendering services. Group companies take turns in taking the role of service provider and service user within the Group in order to enhance the effectiveness of the Group as a whole.
As part of the annual functional analysis, risks identified and resources expended are used to determine risks assumed by individual functions implemented for the sake of subsidiary governance. Functions implemented by the parent company mainly include strategy setting, coordination, monitoring or controlling, and analysis, which are services normally not charged.
Governance and business functions relating to the governance and supervision of the Group and its related companies are generally not invoiced.
Operational transactions that are considered in terms of related-party transactions are charged using the comparable uncontrolled price method based on internal or external comparisons, however, to a very small extent by refunding expenses incurred in rendering services.
The system of related-party transactions is set out in detail in the internal transfer pricing rules. In accordance with OECD guidelines on setting transfer prices, Slovenian tax procedure law, corporate income tax law and internal transfer pricing rules, each Group company subject to reporting must annually prepare a transfer pricing report (general documentation) and a transfer pricing report (special documentation), presenting in detail all transaction with related parties, the methodology of setting transfer prices, comparability analyses of transactions and other content as required by the above regulations.
The following list of material related-party transactions concerns related parties, which comprise:
In 2020, large transactions included: • total remuneration of the members of the management board and the supervisory board, including its committees, and employees not subject to the tariff part of the collective agreement of EUR 8.0 million (2019: EUR 7.0
.
Because of the regulator's call for temporary suspension of dividend payments and due to potential risk, the parent company did not pay out dividends in 2020 (2019 dividend payments totalled EUR 14.7 million).

In accordance with the law, Group companies ensure that persons who effectively run and oversee the business are properly qualified (fit) and suitable (proper) for doing so in a professional manner. To this end, the companies conduct fit and proper assessments of their personnel: management and supervisory board members, members of the supervisory board's committees, key managers, key function holders and personnel overseeing individual outsourced activities. The assessment is carried out before the appointment to the role and periodically thereafter whenever circumstances arise that require a reassessment of whether such persons are still fit and proper.
In addition to the appropriate qualifications, experience and expertise (fitness) they must have, the relevant personnel is also required to demonstrate they enjoy good repute and demonstrate high standards of integrity (propriety) as exemplified by their actions.
The assessment of a person's suitability (propriety) comprises an assessment of their integrity and financial soundness on the basis of relevant evidence about their character, personal behaviour and business conduct, including any criminal, financial and supervision aspects, irrespective of the jurisdiction.
Relevant personnel is subject to the reporting duty regarding any new facts or circumstances, or changes to information submitted in the initial suitability assessment. The body responsible for fit and proper assessment (fit and proper committee of relevant composition) assesses whether the new facts and changed circumstances or information are of such a nature as to require a fit and proper reassessment.
The human resources function requires relevant personnel to sign personal statements at least once a year. Such statements confirm compliance with current fit and proper standards of relevant personnel and their commitment to notify the human resources function immediately of any circumstances that may affect their fit and proper status.
In 2020, the EU-based Group companies carried out full fit and proper assessment procedures for their new relevant personnel as well as an annual review based on annual statements for persons already assessed.
The knowledge acquired through education and experience is to be considered in assessing the fitness of members of a Group company's supervisory body and its committees. These requirements are considered in fitness assessments:
supervisory body in those areas.
In assessing the fitness of the members of a Group company's management body, it is necessary to consider the knowledge acquired through education and work experience. Based on this, the fitness assessment is made with consideration of the member's assigned responsibilities, taking into account the following requirements:
The supervisory body is composed so as to ensure responsible oversight and decision-making in the best interest of the company or the Group. Members are selected so that their professional expertise, experience and skills are complementary to other members of the supervisory body. The supervisory body, viewed as a whole, must have sufficient expertise. Individual members of the supervisory body with distinct special expertise may, in particular based on the assignment of responsibilities for a certain area, compensate for any less profound expertise of other members of the responsibilities for a certain area, compensate for any less profound expertise of other members in that area.

for each key function. These requirements are considered in fitness assessments:
The knowledge acquired through education and work experience is to be considered in assessing the fitness of the members of the Company's other relevant personnel. Based on this, the fitness assessment is made considering assigned responsibilities for certain areas. The following requirements are considered in the fitness assessment:
To ensure the sound and prudent management of a Group company and the Group, relevant personnel must have the appropriate qualifications (fit), be of good repute and demonstrate through their actions high standards of integrity (proper). A relevant person is deemed to be proper, as long as there are no reasons to think otherwise. Circumstances that give rise to reasonable doubt as to suitability are harmful to the reputation of both the relevant person and consequently the company and the Group.
Personal reliability and good repute are assessed based on information compiled by collecting documents for carrying out the fit and proper assessment procedure.
Relevant persons may experience conflicts of interest due to the nature of the business relations. Any relevant person who experiences a conflict of interest in their work must disclose such conflict of interest and continue acting in the interests of the company or the Group. Unless possible, such a person must inform the company's management or the supervisory body, if a conflict of interest is experienced by a member of either the management or supervisory body.
The members of the supervisory body and its committees must – in addition to business knowledge, relevant personal integrity, business ethics and independence – confirm that they have available time resources in the period when performing the function.
The fit & proper assessment procedure is conducted by a special committee set up according to an internal framework document. During the assessment of relevant personnel, the company's human resources function assists with the performance of operational tasks, such as the obtaining, sending, processing and storing of documents, and issuing of the assessment results.
The committees conduct fit and proper assessments and issue relevant results based on compiled documents and statements. Based on assessments so obtained, they may take the necessary actions to ensure adequate qualifications of
relevant personnel. The committees also conduct overall fit and proper assessments of the management and supervisory bodies as collective bodies.

The Sava Insurance Group management is aware that risk management is key to achieving operational and strategic objectives and to ensuring the long-term solvency of the Group. Therefore, the Group is continuously upgrading its risk management system at both the Group company and Group levels.
The Group companies' strong risk culture and awareness of the risks to which they are exposed is essential to the security and financial soundness of the companies and the Group as a whole. In order to establish good risk management practices, the Group promotes a risk management culture with appropriately defined remuneration for employees, employee training, and relevant internal information flow at the individual company and Group levels.
The Sava Insurance Group has in place a risk strategy that defines the Group's risk appetite and policies covering the entire framework of risk management, own risk and solvency assessments (hereinafter: "ORSA") and risk management for each individual risk category. Based on the Group's risk strategy and policies, individual Group companies set up their own risk strategies and policies, taking into account their specificities and the local legislation. The adequacy of the risk strategy and policies is examined on a regular basis.
The risk management system both in individual Group companies and at the Group level is subject to continuous improvements. Particular attention is paid to:
Systematic risk management includes an appropriate organisational structure and a clear delineation of responsibilities.
The efficient functioning of the risk management system is primarily the responsibility of the Sava Re management board and the management board of each individual subsidiary. To ensure efficient risk management, the Group uses a three-lines-of-defence model, which clearly segregates responsibilities and tasks among the following lines:
The Group's risk management system has been set up based on the top down principle, taking into account the specificities of each individual company.
The supervisory board of each individual company approves the risk strategy, risk management policy and grants consent to the appointment of key function holders of the risk management system. In addition, the supervisory board reviews periodic risk management reports. A risk committee has been set up within the supervisory board of the parent company to provide relevant expertise and support in the risk management process in the Company and in the Group.
The management board of each company plays a key role and bears ultimate responsibility for the effectiveness of established risk management processes and their alignment with the Group's standards and the applicable legislation. In this regard, it has the following chief responsibilities:
The first line of defence of each individual Group company involves all company employees responsible for ensuring that operational tasks are performed in a manner that reduces or eliminates risks. Additionally, risk owners are responsible for monitoring and assessing individual risks listed in the risk register. Line managers are responsible for ensuring that processes for which they are responsible are performed

while minimising risks appropriately, and that the framework laid down in the risk strategy is observed. The first line of defence is also responsible for monitoring and measuring risks, preparing data for periodic risk reports for individual areas of risk and identifying new risks.
The Group's and each individual company's second line of defence comprises three key functions: the actuarial function, risk management function and compliance function. In addition, the Group's large members have in place a risk management committee. The members of the risk management committee and key function holders are appointed by the management board; the appointment of a key function holder requires the consent of the supervisory board. Each individual company ensures the independence of the key functions, which are organised as services of the risk management system and report directly to the management board. Their roles and responsibilities are defined in the policy of each key function or in the risk management policy that defines the risk management function. The responsibilities of the risk management function are summarised later in this section; those of the other key functions constituting the risk management system are set out in sections B.4.2 Compliance function, B.5 Internal audit function and B.6 Actuarial function of this report.
The risk management function of each individual company is mainly responsible for setting up an effective risk management framework and for coordinating risk management processes already in place. It is involved in all stages of identification, assessment, monitoring, management and reporting of risks. It is also involved in the preparation of the risk strategy and the setting of risk tolerance limits. The risk management function of each company periodically reports to the risk management committee (if set up in the company), the management and supervisory boards, the risk committee (at Sava Re) and to the Group's risk management key function holder. It works in
cooperation with the latter on an ongoing basis. Furthermore, it offers support to the management board in decision-making (including in relation to strategic decisions, such as corporate strategy, mergers and acquisitions, and major projects and investments). Details on the company or Group-level risk management function holder's duties, terms of reference, responsibilities and powers, foreseen operational procedures, obligations, time limits and reporting distribution lists are set out in the risk management policy of the company or the Group.
Apart from the key functions, some companies' second line of defence includes a risk management committee. The Sava Re risk management committee is also responsible for the Group level. The committee includes the key representatives of the first line of defence with regard to the company's risk profile. The holders of other key functions of the risk management system are also invited to attend meetings of the committee. The committee is primarily responsible for monitoring the risk profiles of the Group and individual companies, analysing risk reports and issuing recommendations to the management board.
The third line of defence consists of the internal audit function. The internal audit function of Zavarovalnica Sava, Sava Pokojninska, Sava Infond and, since 22 January 2021, Vita has been outsourced to Sava Re, whereas the other companies have their own internal audit functions. The internal audit function operates at the individual company and Group levels completely independently of business operations and other functions. In the risk management system, the internal audit function is responsible for the independent analysis and verification of the effectiveness of risk management processes and internal controls in place.
Good practices from Sava Re's risk management model and the organisation of risk management are also transferred to other Group companies.

The Group seeks to operate in compliance with its business strategy and meet the key strategic objectives while maintaining an adequate capital level. For this purpose, in 2019, the Sava Re management board approved the risk strategy for 2020–2022 with the consent of the Company's supervisory board. Due to the Covid-19-related developments and Vita's inclusion in the Group, a revised strategic plan for the period 2020–2022 was approved in August 2020. In accordance with the revised strategic plan, a revised risk strategy for the Sava Insurance Group for 2020–2022 was
prepared. The Group's risk strategy defines:
The key areas that risk appetite is based on are:
The basic principle of the Group is to pursue its business strategy and meet its key strategic objectives while maintaining an adequate capital level.
Each individual Group company sets its own risk strategy, risk tolerance limits and operational limits based on the Group's risk appetite. Risk tolerance limits are limits set for individual risk categories included in individual companies' risk profiles determining approved deviations from planned values. These limits are set based on the results of sensitivity analyses, stress

tests and scenarios, and professional judgment.
Individual Group companies set operational limits, such as (re) insurance underwriting limits and investment limits, in order to ensure that the activities of the first line of defence are carried out in accordance with the set risk appetite. In addition, each Group company ensures that it has in place well-defined and established escalation paths and management actions in the case of any breach of operational limits.
For periodic monitoring of compliance with the risk strategy, individual Group companies and the Group define a minimum set of risk measures for each risk category to allow for monitoring of the Group's and each Group company's current risk profile and capital position. These risk measures are regularly monitored at the Group and individual company levels.
Risk management processes are inherently connected with and incorporated into the basic processes conducted at the individual company and Group levels. All organisational units are involved in risk management processes.
The main risk management processes are:
Risk management processes are incorporated into all three lines of defence. The roles of individual lines of defence are defined in the risk management policy. Risk management processes are also integrated into the decision-making system; all important and strategic business decisions are also evaluated in terms of risk.
In the process of risk identification, each individual Group company identifies the risks to which it is exposed. The key risks are listed in each individual company's risk register and make up its risk profile. The set of key risks is regularly reviewed and new risks are added if necessary. Risk identification at the Group level is conducted in the same way.
Risk identification in individual companies is both a top-down and a bottom-up process. The top-down risk identification process is conducted by the risk management function, the risk management committee (if set up) and the management board of each Group company. Such identification of new and emerging risks is based on monitoring of the legal and business environment, market developments and trends, and expert knowledge; this process is mainly used with strategic risks, such as reputational risk and regulatory risk.
Bottom-up risk identification takes place in individual organisational units and with risk owners (first line of defence). The Group's or Group company's risk thus identified is categorised and incorporated into the relevant monitoring, measuring, managing and reporting processes.
Risk identification is performed on an ongoing basis, for major projects and business initiatives, such as the launch of a new product, investment in a new asset class or an acquisition. In addition, Group companies and the Group annually conduct a review of their entire risk register.
The Group has in place regular risk assessment (measurement) processes for all the risks to which individual companies or the Group are exposed. Both qualitative and quantitative methods are used to measure risk. A modelling centre operates at the
Group level to develop quantitative risk assessment models for the entire Group.
The management board of each Group company is responsible for risk management and the use of various risk management techniques and actions. In its decisions, the management board takes into account the cost benefit aspect of actions as well as recommendations, if any, issued by the risk management committee or key functions.
Whenever the need arises to adopt a new risk control measure, the relevant company conducts an analysis of the measure in terms of economic and financial viability. Elimination or mitigation of individual risks must be more cost effective than mitigation of the potential impact should the risk materialise, taking into full account the probability of such an event and all of its implications.
For the purpose of capital adequacy, Group companies and the Group examine, as early as in the business planning process, the impact of the business strategy on its capital position, both with regard to the regulator as well as with regard to the ORSA. If, during a financial year, decisions are taken that have a significant impact on the risk profile but have not been assessed in terms of risk during the business planning process, the company assesses the impact of such decisions on its risk profile and capital adequacy, and verifies compliance with the risk appetite.

If a business decision could have a significant impact also on the Group's risk profile, such impact on the Group's risk profile and capital adequacy is also assessed. If any business decision fails to comply with the risk appetite or any risk tolerance limit is exceeded, the company is required to document such deviation and take relevant action to resolve the situation.
Risk monitoring is conducted at several levels: at the level of individual organisational units and risk owners, the risk management department, the risk management committee (if set up), and the management and supervisory boards. In addition, each Group company's risk profile is monitored at the Group level in terms of impact on the Group's risk profile. A standard set of risk measures is defined for risk monitoring and is regularly monitored by Group companies. Both risks and risk management measures are subject to monitoring and control. Adverse events and the implementation of relevant corrective measures to prevent the recurrence of an individual event are also monitored.
Regular risk reporting has been set up by most Group companies and at the Group level. Risk owners report on each category of risk to the risk management function, including a predetermined set of significant risk measures and qualitative information. Based on this, the risk management function in cooperation with risk managers prepares a risk report covering the risk profile of the Group or an individual company. The report is first discussed by the company's risk management committee (if the company has one), followed by the management and supervisory boards. The report is sent by the company's risk management function to the Group's risk management function.
In addition to the mentioned risk management processes, the Group also conducts ORSA as defined in its own risk and solvency assessment policy. ORSA is a process that includes identification of the differences between the Group's risk profile and the assumptions of the Standard Formula, the own assessment of solvency needs, capital adequacy projections, stress tests and scenarios, and the establishment of the link between the risk profile and capital management. We conduct the ORSA to assess all material risks, whether quantifiable or not, that may have an impact on the operations of the Group or a Group company from either an economic or a regulatory perspective. ORSA is conducted by all Group companies subject to Solvency II and, to a limited extent, by some other insurance companies.
The Group ORSA is prepared based on the Group's business and strategic plans, taking into account the current risk profile as well as any changes planned therein. The ORSA is primarily conducted to understand the own risk profile and the Standard Formula, and to analyse the impact of the changes in the risk profile on capital adequacy over the next three years. Throughout the ORSA, the parent company's management board is actively involved in the process: it confirms the technical bases, reviews and challenges the Group ORSA before giving its formal approval.
The ORSA process is extensive and spans a large part of the year. Based on input from the business and strategic plans and the risk strategy, the Group calculates the SCR and makes Solvency II valuations for items of the balance sheet and eligible own funds for the term of the business and strategic plans. Based on projections, continuous compliance with the regulatory requirements regarding capital and technical provisions is reviewed. In addition, compliance with the risk strategy is reviewed.
The ORSA results are taken into account by other processes, especially capital management and risk management processes. ORSA is an integral part of the decision-making process conducted to ensure that the key decisions and the business strategy are adopted with consideration of risks and associated capital requirements. Based on ORSA results, we also check the compliance of the business strategy with the risk strategy. This establishes the links between the business strategy, the risks taken in the short, medium and longer term, the capital requirements arising from those risks and capital management. in the business plan, an ad hoc ORSA is conducted. The Group reports (at least) annually to the regulator on the ORSA. After the results are approved, they are also circulated to all the Sava Re heads of organisational units. The ORSA is subject to continuous improvement with regard to both risk assessment and ORSA integration into the Group's ongoing processes, especially into business decision-making.
Based on the results of the suitability analysis of the Standard Formula for the Group's risk profile, the Group then uses its own solvency model to conduct an own risk and solvency assessment for a further three-year period and makes a qualitative or quantitative assessment of the risks that are not captures by the Standard Formula. The ORSA process also involves stress tests and scenario analyses relevant to the Group given its current and planned risk profile.
The Group generally conducts the full ORSA annually. The joint ORSA report is prepared based on calculations and covers the Group ORSA as well as the ORSA of other companies subject to Solvency II. The report is considered by the Group's risk management committee and confirmed by the Sava Re management board; it is also considered by the supervisory board's risk committee, and the Sava Re supervisory board takes note of it. However, in the case of a major change in the risk profile or eligible own funds that has not been anticipated

The purpose of the Group's internal control system is to identify, measure, monitor and manage risks at all levels of operations and includes reporting on risks that the Group or any individual Group company is or may be exposed to in its operations. In addition, the system ensures compliance with the internal rules and meets the requirements of other laws and regulations pertaining to risk management.
It is vital that employees understand the importance of internal controls and are actively involved in the implementation of internal control procedures. Procedures for reporting to the appropriate level of management with regard to potential problems, deviations, non-compliance with the code of conduct or other policy violations or illegal actions are presented to all employees in plain language and are clearly stated in documents available to all employees.
The Group's internal control system is defined in the internal control policy aimed at setting up an effective and reliable system of internal controls. The policy sets out the basic principles, framework of and roles for the Group's system of internal controls as part of the Group's system of corporate governance.
In 2020, the parent company carried out the regular annual review of its register of internal controls, whereas internal controls for risk mitigation as part of the risk register are assessed quarterly or annually (depending on individual risks) at the individual company and Group levels. In addition, a register of incidents is used for improving the internal control system. In 2020, the parent company conducted a review of certain key processes, including internal controls in place, laying down plans for further improvement in these internal controls.
The compliance function at the Group and individual company levels is one of the four key functions constituting the risk management system. The compliance function, being an internal control function, is part of the second line of defence in the risk management system consisting of three lines of defence. Its main duty is to manage the risks arising from non-compliance with the law. As a rule, it is an independent organisational unit, functionally and organisationally separate from other business functions of the company and reports directly to the management board. The Group's compliance function is organised as part of the parent's "Office of the management board and compliance" department. Although the compliance function is not organised as an independent organisational unit, it is ensured that the compliance function holder has direct access to the management board at all times. The compliance function holder also has other responsibilities; therefore, relevant internal measures have been taken by the company to avoid potential conflicts of interest for the function holder when acting as compliance function holder.
The compliance function holders of Group companies are authorised by the company's management board with the consent of the supervisory board.
The chief duties of the compliance function holder are to: • monitor and periodically assess the adequacy and effectiveness of regular procedures and measures to address any deficiencies in compliance with regulations and
environment on the operations of the Company in terms of compliance with its regulations and other commitments, and report on them to the company's management, individual organisational units, and business and key functions;

Internal auditing in the Group companies is carried out by independent internal audit units, which report to the management board and are functionally and organisationally separate from other organisational units. Their organisational position ensures autonomy and independence of operation.
Pursuant to the Insurance Act and based on outsourcing agreements Sava Re d.d. has been performing, since 1 February 2018 and for an indefinite duration, the key functions of the internal audit of Zavarovalnica Sava and Sava Pokojninska. In 2019, Sava Re signed a contract – in compliance with the Investment Funds and Management Companies Act (ZISDU-316) – with Sava Infond, under which the latter transferred the performance of the internal audit key function to Sava Re as of 1 January 2020, for an indefinite period. Pursuant to the Insurance Act, in January 2021, Sava Re concluded an outsourcing agreement with Vita, under which, on 22 January 2021, the latter transferred the performance of the key function of its internal audit to Sava Re for an indefinite period.
The internal audit function, being an internal control function, is part of the third line of defence of the Company's risk management system.
The chief responsibilities of the internal audit are to:

Internal audit conducts internal audit reviews in accordance with the hierarchy of rules of internal auditing adopted by the Slovenian Institute of Auditors on the basis of the law governing auditing and written rules of the internal audit function. The internal audit function operates in accordance with the adopted internal audit policy, which defines the purpose, powers, responsibilities and tasks of the internal audit function. Furthermore, it establishes the position of the internal audit within the organisation, including the nature of the functional responsibilities of the head of internal audit with regard to the supervisory body, authorises access to records, personnel, premises and equipment relevant to the performance of engagements, and defines the scope and activities of the internal audit.
The internal audit function annually submits the annual work plan and the annual report of the internal audit service to the management and supervisory boards, including its audit
The internal audit function holder of Sava Re and the Group has been appointed by the Sava Re management board with the consent of the supervisory board upon the prior opinion of the audit committee, and also serves as the director of the internal audit department.
The internal audit must be independent, and internal auditors must be impartial and unbiased, and avoid any conflicts of interest. The director of the internal audit must confirm to the supervisory body, at least annually, the organisational independence of the internal audit as part of the annual reporting on the activities of the internal audit service.
The internal audit department of the parent company provides guidance for a unified methodology for all the Group's internal audit functions, coordinates their work and drives the development of a unified methodology of work, supervising the quality of work of internal audit functions across the Group. Internal audit in the Group follows uniform procedures as laid down by the standards set out in the internal methodologic instructions on the operation of internal audit departments. In 2020, Group Internal Audit was introduced for the Slovenian part of the Group; in 2021, it was introduced for the entire Group. This will improve periodic monitoring of the development and quality of internal audit functions at subsidiaries, providing also the basis for issuing overall opinions of the effectiveness and efficiency of internal controls and risk management at the company and Group levels.
In accordance with the Group's corporate governance policy, the internal audit function of the parent company also ensures the inclusion of subsidiary companies in the scope of
16 Slovenian Investment Funds and Management Companies Act (Zakon o investicijskih skladih in družbah za upravljanje).

Internal auditors of the parent company may perform independent audits in Group subsidiaries or non-standard audits on the basis of risks as assessed by the parent company of the Group, or participate in certain more complex audit engagements in subsidiaries. The annual plan of the parent company includes proposals of audit engagements based on key Group risks to be performed by the parent's internal audit in any subsidiary. Furthermore, in terms of the Group Internal Audit, the annual plan of the parent includes a detailed review of audit engagements planned by subsidiaries.
The internal audit annual report of the parent company provides an overview of the findings of the internal audit functions of each individual Group company.

The actuarial function is an administrative concept comprising all the persons performing actuarial tasks of the second line of defence as detailed later in this section. Actuarial function performers are employed in the areas of the actuarial function in actuarial departments of Group companies. They also perform first-line-of-defence actuarial tasks. As the actuarial function is part of the second line of defence of the risk management system, it is organised in a way that prevents any one person from both performing (first line) and controlling (second line) the same tasks.
The company's actuarial function holder is responsible for carrying out the actuarial function. Composite insurers and the Group may appoint separate actuarial function holders for non-life, life and health insurance business. The Group's actuarial function coordinates the activities of the Sava Insurance Group's actuarial function and is responsible for the development of a uniform methodology. The parent company's actuarial function holder also performs the role of the Group's actuarial function holder for non-life business.
The actuarial function holders of Group members serve on the Group's actuarial committee. Among other things, this committee adopts decisions in the form of proposals and recommendations for the management board of Sava Re, other key functions of the Group and the Group's risk management committee, which are implemented in line with the rules of procedures appended to the Group's actuarial function policy. The members of the actuarial committee have a responsibility towards individual companies for communicating information about relevant arrangements to relevant parts of the company.
The chief tasks of the actuarial function of each individual
Group company are to:

The outsourcing of business or functions is the contracting out of work related to the business of insurance or an important or key business function or activity of any Sava Insurance Group company otherwise carried out as part of its licensed activities.
In accordance with the provisions of the applicable Insurance Act, the parent company adopted an outsourcing policy that governs the outsourcing of the Group's critical or important operational functions or activities. The policy defines the framework for the outsourcing of critical or important operational functions – contracts on outsourcing in general, when they might be entered into, how they should be maintained and documented, and how to ensure compliance with the applicable outsourcing guidelines. The policy outlines the steps and responsibilities in the process of outsourcing of functions or activities, defining the standards of management and control of such a process. The policy further defines the registering of outsourced operations comprising all contracts considered as outsourced and defines how to document the whole decision-making process, collect the necessary documents and the signing of such contracts. The policy states that each outsourced operation must have an administrator, whose main responsibility is to oversee the outsourced function or activity. By signing the contract, all providers of outsourced services undertake to act in accordance with the applicable law and cooperate with the local supervisor. The company must notify the local regulator of its intention to outsource an operation before entering into the relevant contract.
Each individual Group company is fully responsible for its outsourced functions or activities since its liability to third parties is not transferable to service providers or
In 2020, individual Group companies outsourced some functions to non-Group providers, e.g. Zavarovalnica Sava outsourced its claims handling function. In 2020, the IT function outsourced cyber security to two external providers setting up a SOC17 (24/7). Group companies use their own infrastructure and, for certain functions, such as security and secondary location, rent services with one Group company operating a central infrastructure.
other contractors. Before deciding on the assignment or outsourcing of any task or function, each Group company must assess and document the impact that such outsourcing of tasks or functions will have, ensuring regular conduct of this process in the future. Contracts for the outsourcing of business or functions may only be entered by Group company in compliance with statutory requirements. Re for an indefinite period.

The Sava Insurance Group has in place a transparent and appropriate risk-based governance system.
The Group governance policy sets out the main guidelines for the governance of individual Group companies, as well as the control and supervision of Group companies, taking into account the Group's goals, mission, vision and values. The purpose of the policy is to define the foundation of the Group's system of governance, the basic management rules, rules of corporate governance and a transparent organisational structure with transparent and clear allocation and segregation of roles and responsibilities. Corporate governance is a combination of processes and frameworks used by the management and supervisory boards, including supervisory board committees, for communicating, directing, controlling and monitoring a company's operations in order to achieve the company's goals. The policy was last reviewed and amended in December 2020.
The rules of the Group governance system are subject to regular annual review. This review is the responsibility of the Group's compliance function, which in cooperation with the Group's internal audit function verifies the consistency of the governance policy with other policies within the governance system and with other internal acts, legislation and regulations. When verifying and assessing the effectiveness of the corporate governance framework, the reviewer focuses on the changes in internal and external factors affecting the Group.
The report of the internal audit department on the audit review of corporate governance carried out in January 2018 also supports the position that the Group has in place an adequate system of governance. The internal audit department assessed the corporate governance system as
good, concluding that the corporate governance system, to the extent reviewed, was largely compliant with the Slovenian Companies Act (ZGD-1), the Insurance Act (ZZavar-1), relevant implementing acts and other Solvency II requirements. The system provides for clear segregation of duties in all areas of governance of the Group and its individual companies. All large subsidiaries completed corporate governance audits within a three-year cycle. The internal audit department is planning a corporate governance audit at the Group level in 2022.

The following subsections discuss individual risk categories one by one. The Group regularly measures underwriting, market, credit and operational risks using the Standard Formula, whereas other risks, including operational risk, that are not readily quantifiable are measured by using the methods described in the below sections.

* The percentages given for 2019 differ from those provided in the 2019 Group SFCR. In the 2019 Group SFCR, we calculated the share of each module as a percentage of all risks excluding operational risk; in contrast, in this graph operational risk is included in the sum of all risks.
The Group's main risks in line with the Standard Formula are non-life underwriting and market risks; other risk categories are small. In 2020, non-life underwriting risk chiefly increased on account of portfolio growth and strengthened technical provisions; market risk grew as the result of Vita's inclusion in the Group and a somewhat changed asset allocation in the investment portfolio. Life and health underwriting risks, too, increased in 2020, chiefly as the result of Vita's inclusion in the Group.
In line with the Standard Formula, the Group SCR by risk module also includes the capital requirement for financial institutions treated in accordance with relevant sectoral regulations (Sava Pokojninska Družba and Sava Infond) and the capital requirement for other Group companies (Sava Penzisko Društvo and the associates ZTSR and G2I).

There has been an increase in certain risks due to Covid-19. We have been operating in exceptional circumstances for almost a year and have obtained a better understanding of the risk than at the onset of the pandemic. We identify, monitor, analyse and manage risks on a regular basis. We believe that these risks are well managed by the Group. Below, we set out potential Covid-19-related risks: • We do not expect that Covid-19 will have a significant
another widening of credit spreads on corporate bonds and downgrading of debt securities. There was also an increased volatility in securities markets due to Covid-19.
Cyber risks increased; however, they are well managed due to increased cyber security. A number of measures have already been introduced in this area that will enable us to detect attacks on and malicious activities against the Group's IT systems.
Covid-19 related uncertainty persists in 2021, as it is impossible to assess how long measures for the containment of the spread in Europe will last, and how much of an adverse impact they will have on the economy. We expect that the slower economic growth and ongoing measures restricting movement will impact the Group's business. However, based on the above-listed risks, we do not expect that they will in any way compromise the Group's solvency because risks are well managed and the solvency ratio is high.

Underwriting risk arises from the Group's (re)insurance activities, i.e. the underwriting of (re)insurance contracts, and execution of (re)insurance contracts and transactions directly related to (re)insurance activities. It relates to the risks covered under (re)insurance contracts and associated processes, and arises from the uncertainty related to the occurrence, scope and timing of obligations.
Underwriting risk is generally divided into:
The Group markets all three types of (re)insurance and is consequently exposed to all three risk types. Accepted life reinsurance business of non-Group cedants, including accident reinsurance business, is discussed under health underwriting risk. This is because, due to its annual coverage period and technical basis, such life reinsurance business is similar to accepted accident reinsurance business.
The following chart shows gross premiums written by line of business, separately for EU-based and non-EU based Group companies. The volume of life and health business written in the EU increased after Vita was included in the Group, which resulted in some change in the breakdown of gross premiums written in 2020.

Non-life underwriting risk is divided into:
◊ risk of unexpected increase in claims. Given the Group's portfolio composition, the largest contributors to premium risk include motor vehicle and property (re)insurance (fire and other damage to property, including associated business interruption insurance).
• Reserve risk is the risk that either technical provisions
are insufficient to meet the obligations arising from (re)insurance contracts due to inadequate methods, inappropriate, incomplete and inaccurate data, inefficient procedures and controls or inadequate expert judgement, or misreporting, resulting in unreliable information about a company's financial position. These include:
◊ the risk of data availability and accuracy,
Similar to premium risk, the bulk of reserve risk arises from motor and property business (fire and other damage to property, including associated business interruption insurance), with the largest best estimate provisions owing to the Group's traditional focus on such business.
• Catastrophe risk includes the risk of occurrence of a catastrophic event; such events are rare but their financial impact is too high to simply be covered by otherwise

appropriate premiums and provisions. Catastrophe risk may materialise as an extreme event or a large number of catastrophic events in a short period. The risk also includes an excessive geographical accumulation of risks. The Group's portfolio is geographically relatively well diversified, with risks being slightly more concentrated in Slovenia, which is further addressed by means of the retrocession programme. The capital requirement is relatively high for non-life catastrophe risk because of the aggregation of a large number of such requirements for various smaller natural perils and regions and various manmade catastrophic events.
• Lapse risk is the risk of loss or adverse change in the value of insurance liabilities resulting from changes in the level or volatility of lapse rates. The Group is not materially exposed to this type of risk.
Other underwriting risks, such as economic environment risk and policyholder behaviour risk, may be relevant, but their effect is already indirectly accounted for in the above non-life underwriting risk.
The Group makes quantitative assessments of non-life underwriting risk using the Standard Formula. To this end, it does not apply Group-specific parameters, in accordance with article 104(7) of Directive 2009/138/EC. The Group also makes quantitative assessments of underwriting risk using its own assessment (as part of ORSA). Premium and reserve risks are estimated by using undertaking-specific parameters (hereinafter: USP) and the calculation for the Group applies weighted USP averages of individual Group companies.
The following graph shows the Group's non-life underwriting risk in accordance with the Standard Formula. The share of each risk sub-module is expressed as a percentage of the total of all non-life underwriting risk sub-modules.

As at 31 December 2020, the non-life underwriting risk module increased, chiefly because of the increase in the premium and reserve risk sub-module as the result of a rise in best estimate provisions set aside for FoS claims and Covid-19-related claims in Anglo-Saxon markets as well as due to premium growth. There was also an increase in the catastrophe risk sub-module, chiefly due to a larger volume of business. There was also a minor increase in the lapse risk sub-module owing to larger future expected profits.
In addition to this quantitative risk measurement, individual Group companies monitor their exposures to non-life underwriting risk quarterly using various risk indicators. Certain indicators are also monitored at the Group level. This information allows Group companies or the Group to promptly detect any changes, which in turn allows management to take action in a timely manner.
The following graph shows a breakdown of net premiums earned relating to fire and other damage to property insurance and proportional reinsurance, and to proportional and nonproportional property reinsurance business by region. Most of this income is sourced from South Europe, where the Group's direct insurance companies operate; exposure to Slovenia is predominant. The diversification remains at a similar level to 2019.

The Group does not use special purpose vehicles (SPV) or hedging techniques to mitigate its underwriting risk.
In addition to the above, the Group analyses the impact of various stress tests on the level of risk. In the calculation as at 31 December 2020, we tested the impact of an increase in the volume measure for the premium risk of non-life and not-similar-to-life-technique health insurance business (hereinafter: NSLT health insurance) of 10% on the level of premium and reserving risk and the overall SCR. A 10% increase in the premium volume measure would result in a 4.4 p.p. decrease in the solvency ratio (31 December 2019: 6.3 p.p.).
We also analysed the impact of a 10% increase in the volume measure for the reserving risk of non-life and NSLT health insurance on the level of premium and reserving risk, and on the overall SCR. A 10% increase in the reserving volume measure would result in a 2.9 p.p. decrease in the solvency ratio (31 December 2019: 3.6 p.p.).

The sections below explain risk management in greater detail by each non-life underwriting risk.
The Group seeks to mitigate underwriting process risk by restricting authorisations for mass underwriting, as well as by means of additional training of underwriters and agents, by providing understandable, clear and detailed instructions, and by defining appropriate underwriting limits that are consistent with the business strategy, the risk strategy and the reinsurance programme. In addition, we make special efforts to offer products to appropriate target clients (to prevent mis-selling and/or adverse selection), to accept reinsurance from trusted cedants, and to ensure that appropriate limits are in place for exposure concentration by geographical location and homogeneous risk groups, which maintain favourable risk diversification. Another underwriting process risk is PML error (inaccurate assessment of the Probable Maximum Loss, PML). In order to mitigate this risk, the Group has in place guidelines for PML assessment, requirements that PML assessments are a team exercise, and ensures that the retrocession programme covers PML error.
The Group seeks to mitigate price risk before launching a product by making in-depth market analyses, staying informed (media, competitors, clients), monitoring applicable regulations and associated requirements, and monitoring historical claim trends (for the entire market) and forecasts. In accepted reinsurance underwriting, it is important to know the market and to verify how reliable partners are. The reinsurer may also use special clauses in accepted reinsurance contracts to limit performance volatility, e.g. a sliding scale commission and profit commission, and loss ratio limitations.
The Group monitors claims risk through in-depth assessments of underwriting process risk, by restricting the authorisations
in the underwriting process, and by developing IT support that allows an accurate overview of claims accumulation. For accepted reinsurance, this risk, too, can be managed by means of special clauses in proportional reinsurance contracts, which limit the reinsurer's share of unexpected claims, and by not accepting unlimited layers under non-proportional contracts. Also central to reducing this risk is the annual testing of the appropriateness of reinsurance protection by using a variety of stress tests and scenarios, and setting appropriate retentions.
The Group manages reserve risk by means of robust processes and effective controls as regards the calculation of technical provisions both in accordance with IFRS and Solvency II regulations. In addition, it conducts annual backtesting of the appropriateness of technical provisions, analysing any major reasons for their insufficiency. All experience so gained is then used in the calculation of future technical provisions.
Controls are put in place for the mitigation of each identified risk. These controls ensure data quality and mitigate the risks associated with the calculation of technical provisions. The design and operational effectiveness of controls are reviewed at least annually and whenever a significant change occurs in the process or methods and models used to calculate technical provisions.
• reconciliation of technical provision items with accounting
records,
By documenting and understanding such a process, the Group can identify and describe potential risks, such as the: • risk of data availability and accuracy, • risk of adequacy of methods and assumptions used, • risk of a calculation error, • risk associated with supporting IT systems and tools. It is estimated that lapse risk is less important for the Group, as the vast majority of non-life insurance policies is written for one year and cannot be terminated early without the insurer's consent (except in case of premium default or if the subjectmatter of the insurance policy is no longer owned by the policyholder or has been destroyed due to a loss event). The majority of accepted reinsurance contracts is also written for a period of one year. The risk associated with these contracts is also mitigated by nurturing good business relations with policyholders and cedants and by closely analysing the market situation.
The process by which technical provisions are calculated is subject to periodic approval. Where substantial changes have been made to the process, the methodology or models used in the calculation of technical provisions, a validation is carried out in accordance with the reporting schedule.
The Group manages catastrophe risk by means of a well-designed underwriting process, by controlling risk concentration for products covering larger complexes against natural disasters and fire, by geographical diversification, and by adequate retrocession protection against natural and manmade catastrophes.
To protect against natural catastrophes, the Group has in place

a catastrophe excess-of-loss coverage to protect its retention, separately for Group and non-Group accepted reinsurance. Before the non-proportional protection is triggered, the Slovenian portfolio is protected by proportional covers: a surplus cover providing protection at the level of individual risks (including PML error), and an earthquake quota share cover. This means that if a major event occurs, the Group will suffer a loss equal, at most, to the amount of the priority of the catastrophe excess-of-loss cover plus a reinstatement premium. If the Group makes additional use of the coverage, it is subject to provisions concerning reinstatements, meaning that it would purchase protection for the remaining period of cover. This is a common instrument available in the international reinsurance market at a price that is usually lower than the original cover due to the shorter coverage period. The portfolio is further protected against the risk of a larger frequency of natural catastrophes in Slovenia by an aggregate excess-of-loss cover; therefore, if several events exceed the Group's priority in a year, the Group will suffer a loss lower than the sum of all priorities. The non-Group portfolio is additionally insured through a sublimit in case of a higher catastrophe frequency. It ensures that the Group remains solvent even if several catastrophic events occur in one single year.
The Group also analyses scenarios and their impact on its operations and solvency position. We selected scenarios based on the own risk profile, striving to identify events with a potentially maximum impact on the operations and capital adequacy, and taking into account their probability of occurrence.
Catastrophe risk is a very important risk for the Group. Therefore, as part of the ORSA process, we test natural catastrophe scenarios in terms of their impact on solvency. To date, the following has been tested: an earthquake in Ljubljana with a return period of 1000 years (including default of lead
retrocessionaire), a Kyrill-type hurricane (2007), an Andrewtype hurricane (1990), an earthquake in China, an earthquake in Turkey, the scenario of three catastrophic events in Slovenia in one year (two hail storms and one flood), the impact of two hurricane events in the Caribbean as in 2017 and a scenario of two major Japanese typhoons occurring in one year. As part of man-made disasters, we tested a scenario of terrorist attacks in France. In each of these cases, Group eligible own funds would be impacted by the amount of the claim payment, which would also have an effect on the profit or loss for the year (in which the event happened); nevertheless, the Group would maintain a large surplus of eligible own funds over the SCR. The Group's solvency ratio would remain within the optimal range thanks to reinsurance coverage in place to protect against such events. We are aware that some of these events (e.g. an earthquake in Ljubljana) can have a number of other direct effects on the business, which is why the Group also manages such risks through designing business continuity plans, which include modes and measures for operating in emergency situations. Risk exposure The Group is moderately exposed to life underwriting risk. The Group's main exposure to life underwriting risk is in the European Union. Vita's inclusion in the Group resulted in an increased volume of life business, especially index- and unitlinked business, which significantly changed the composition of the Group's net life insurance premiums earned in 2020. The largest share of 2020 consolidated net life insurance premiums earned no longer relates to business with profit participation but to index- and unit-linked business.
The main life underwriting risks are:

Lapse risk is the risk of an increase or decrease in lapse rates (rate of early termination of contracts) due to surrenders, conversions to paid-up status or premium default. Risk levels depend on the use of adequate statistics, identification of terminations for various reasons in an underwriting year, and economic situation, which, to a certain extent, affect the behaviour of policyholders. Risk levels also depend on competitive insurance products available in the market, and advice provided by insurance intermediaries and financial advisers.
Mortality risk is the risk that the actual mortality of insured persons will turn out to be greater than projected in mortality tables used during premium pricing. Risk levels depend on the use of adequate statistics and identification of insured persons
risk using the Standard Formula. According to the Standard Formula, the exposure to life underwriting risk totalled EUR 38.2 million as at 31 December 2020 (31 December 2019: EUR 28.8 million). The capital requirement for life underwriting risk represented 9.3% (31 December 2019: 8.5%) of the total SCR of all risk modules. As at 31 December 2020, life underwriting risk rose compared to 31 December 2019,
with an increased mortality risk due to health reasons or a risky lifestyle. Life-expense risk is the risk that the actual expenses incurred in servicing life insurance contracts turn out to be greater than projected in pricing. Risk levels depend on the use of appropriate statistics, and an increase in the actual expenses incurred in servicing life insurance contracts. Risk measurement The Group makes quantitative assessments of life underwriting chiefly because of Vita's inclusion in the Group. Lapse risk, specifically mass lapse risk, represented the largest proportion of the Group's undiversified life underwriting risk. Mortality risk and expense risk are also important risk categories, which, similar to lapse risk, increased as at 31 December 2020 compared to 31 December 2019, chiefly because of Vita's inclusion in the Group, whereas the updating of other valuation assumptions also had an upward effect. Other life underwriting risks of the Group are rather small. A comparison of risks is provided in the following breakdown of undiversified risk by life underwriting risk sub-module. The share of each risk sub-module is expressed as a percentage of the total of all life underwriting risk sub-modules.

Undiversified life underwriting risk by risk sub-module21

31 Dec 2019 31 Dec 2020
As we believe that our own risk profile for life insurance does not deviate significantly from the underlying assumptions in the Standard Formula, life underwriting risks in the ORSA are treated as in the Standard Formula.
There is no significant concentration of life underwriting risk at the Group level, as the portfolio is well-diversified in terms of the age of the insured persons, the remaining period of insurance, exposures (of sums insured and sums at risk), and premium payment schedules. The portfolio is also diversified in terms of the percentage of policies lapsed in a period, expenses and mortality, and morbidity rates by product.
The Group manages lapse risk mainly by quarterly monitoring of the number and percentage of policies lapsed, by restricting surrenders where the insurer's approval is required, and by the

systematic prevention of policy rearrangements on the part of intermediaries.
The procedures used to manage mortality risk are: consistent application of underwriting protocols, which specify in detail the deviation from normal mortality risk, regular monitoring of exposures and adequacy of mortality tables used, and appropriate reinsurance protection.
Life-expense risk is managed by the Group by periodic monitoring of the expenses incurred in servicing life insurance contracts, monitoring the macroeconomic situation (e.g. inflation), and appropriately planning the servicing of expenses for the coming years.
Life underwriting risks are also managed by periodically monitoring the life portfolio composition, exposures, premium payment patterns, lapse rates and expenses incurred, as well as by analysing the appropriateness of the modelling of the expected mortality and morbidity, and lapse rates. The
information so obtained allows for timely action in the case of adverse developments in these indicators.
Health underwriting risk includes:
The Group is exposed to both types of health underwriting risk. The majority of the exposure relates to accident insurance, which is classified as NSLT health insurance, while the exposure to SLT health insurance is small.
NSLT health underwriting risks are by their nature very similar to non-life underwriting risks, which are discussed in greater detail in section C.1.1 Non-life underwriting risk of this GROUP SFCR 70

report, and are as such managed by the Group using similar techniques, i.e. by means of a well-designed underwriting process, the control of risk concentration for accident and health insurance products, and an adequate reinsurance protection.
SLT health underwriting risks are by their nature very similar to life underwriting risks, and are therefore managed by the Group using similar techniques. Life underwriting risks are discussed in greater detail in section C.1.2. Life underwriting risk.
The Group makes quantitative assessments of health underwriting risk using the Standard Formula. According to the Standard Formula, the exposure to life underwriting risk totalled EUR 31.6 million as at 31 December 2020 (31 December 2019: EUR 27.9 million) or 7.7% (31 December 2019: 8.2%) of the total SCR of all risk modules. The level of risk under the Standard Formula increased modestly compared to 31 December 2019, chiefly because of Vita's inclusion in the Group. This resulted in increases in the NSLT health and catastrophe risk sub-modules. SLT health underwriting risk increased in 2020 because of a change in morbidity assumptions as insurance contracts are assessed as more profitable, resulting in a higher capital requirement for lapse risk. As at 31 December 2020, the majority of this requirement was also associated with NSLT health underwriting risk, notably premium and reserve risk. The following graph shows the Group's health underwriting risk under the Standard Formula. The share of each risk sub-module is expressed as a percentage of the total of all health underwriting risk submodules.

23 Overview of the basic investment portfolio (the look-through approach is not considered).
Market risk is the risk of loss or adverse change in the financial situation resulting, directly or indirectly, from fluctuations in the level and in the volatility of market prices of assets, liabilities and financial instruments.
Market risks include the following:

24The proportion of each risk sub-module is calculated as a percentage of the total of all risk submodules.
The value of assets included in the calculation of market risk was EUR 1,889.7 million as at 31 December 2020 (31 December 2019: EUR 1,328.1 million). The increase in portfolio investments in 2020 mainly reflects Vita's inclusion in the Group and the parent's non-payment of dividends. Their composition shows that the bulk of the Group's financial investments consists of fixed-rate financial instruments. In addition to portfolio investments, the calculation involves investments of policyholders who bear the investment risk and the related obligations arising from these contracts. The increase as at 31 December 2020 mainly reflects Vita's inclusion in the Group.
The predominance of fixed-income financial instruments reflects the Group's policy that defines asset and liability matching as one of the main objectives of investment management. The Group's investment portfolio shows a relatively high exposure to credit risk.
The Group conducts the quantitative assessment of market risk by using the Standard Formula as well as its own risk assessment. For investments in mutual funds, the Group uses the look-through approach when calculating market risk.

the same level as at 31 December 2019.
Equity risk accounted for 22% of the total undiversified market risk and remained largely unchanged compared to 31 December 2019. Capital requirements arise partly from
The solvency capital requirement for the Group's market risk calculated using the Standard Formula amounted to EUR 120.6 million as at 31 December 2020 (31 December 2019: EUR 76.4 million, representing 29.4% of the total SCR of all risk modules (31 December 2019: 22.5%). In 2020, the increase in the SCR for market risk was primarily impacted by Vita's inclusion in the Group. The increase in property risk also reflects a larger exposure to real-estate funds. The composition of market risk as at 31 December 2020 changed modestly compared to 31 December 2019: there was an increase in spread risk and equity risk, with spread risk still contributing the largest proportion of the risk. Interest rate risk accounted for 3% of the total undiversified capital requirement for market risk. Interest rate remained at portfolio investments and partly from the mutual-fund investments that the Group holds to match the liabilities under life insurance contracts in which policyholders bear the investment risk. The Group matches the assets and liabilities of such policies with the amount of technical provisions pursuant to IFRSs. Due to the Solvency II valuation of obligations arising from such insurance contracts, a shock has a different impact on the level of assets and liabilities, resulting in a mismatch between assets and liabilities in the calculation of equity risk, which leads to an additional capital requirement. The increase in equity risk in 2020 chiefly reflects the inclusion of Vita in the Group (an increase in the value of the Group's direct equity investments and an increase in the value of assets of policyholders who bear the investment risk) and larger investments in alternative funds.

level. The risk mainly relates to property held for own use. Due to the high capital add-on for property risk under the Standard Formula, this risk represents 16% of total undiversified market risk. Most of the increase in risk between 31 December 2020 and 31 December 2019 derives from larger investments in realestate funds.
Spread risk is the largest market risk, accounting for 47% of the total undiversified capital requirement for market risk. This is due to the Group's relatively large exposure to corporate bonds and deposits. Compared to 31 December 2019, the risk increased primarily because of Vita's inclusion in the Group and growth in the fixed-rate portfolios of other Group companies.
Currency risk represents 13% of the undiversified market risk. Both assets and liabilities are exposed to this risk. The Group's exposure to currency risk arises mainly from the reinsurance business of Sava Re, FoS business of Zavarovalnica Sava, Group companies established outside the euro area and the lookthrough approach. Despite the considerable currency match between IFRS assets and liabilities, there is a minor currency mismatch under Solvency II due to differences in the valuation of technical provisions under IFRS and Solvency II, and capital of Group companies not denominated in euros. Most of the increase in this risk at 31 December 2020 compared to 31 December 2019 derives from assets of policyholders who bear the investment risk.
Market risk concentration is nil as at both 31 December 2019 and 31 December 2020.
When assessing the risks associated with the investment portfolio, the Group also regularly monitors other risk and performance measures relating to the investment portfolio:
As part of asset and liability management, the Group and each EU-based Group company quarterly calculate and monitor the following for each asset and liability portfolio:
In addition to the Standard Formula, the Group uses its own solvency model to monitor and assess market risk. The own model only considers financial investments, excluding assets of policyholders who bear the investment risk. These are taken into account like in the Standard Formula. In our own calculation of risk, we assess the following financial risks: equity risk, interest rate risk and credit risk of financial investments. The valuation of equities is conducted by using the capital asset pricing model (CAPM), where, for each equity instrument, a stock index is determined representing market return in the model (relevant economic scenario generators are used as a basis). The own model takes into account all marketable equity securities sufficiently liquid to allow a sufficiently accurate estimation of model parameters using historic data. For other investments, the stresses prescribed by the Standard Formula are used. The own assessment considers interest rate risk of all assets and liabilities. To this end, each currency representing a relatively small proportion of the portfolio is translated into a modelled currency with which it had the most stable exchange rate over the past fiveyear period.25 The own model also supports the assessment of credit risk of financial investments, which also captures market concentration risk and spread risk. In accordance with article 180 of the Delegated Regulation, the Standard Formula assigns a risk factor stress of 0% to certain government bonds,

which – given past market behaviour – actually bear a certain level of risk. Accordingly, this is assessed within the own model, together with other debt securities.
The Group's largest regional concentration is in the EU Member States. The Group's highest single issuer concentration arises from the Republic of Slovenia. Aware of this concentration risk, the Group actively manages it by lowering the maximum exposure limit set in the internal limit system.
Market risks are monitored at the individual Group company and Group levels.
To systematically address material market risks, the Group has in place an asset and liability management policy and an investment risk management policy. The policies define:
The Group's framework for market risk management has been appropriately transferred to and is being used by each Group company.

The Group manages the risks arising from the financial investments portfolio by regularly monitoring and analysing issuers' financial data, monitoring the market prices of financial instruments, and regularly analysing asset and liability management.
The Group companies primarily address asset and liability mismatch by means of matching. If practicable and cost efficient, assets are matched to liability cash flows. Group companies do not use derivative financial instruments for asset and liability matching.
The Group manages equity risk through the diversification of this investment portfolio segment to various capital markets and a limit system that limits the exposure to equities.
Individual Group companies manage currency mismatches through currency overlay and based on IFRS liabilities. The monitoring and management of currency risk is presented in greater detail in the Group's annual report, section 17.6.4.2.1.3 "Currency risk".
To avoid concentration of investments by investment type, issuer, industry, and other similar concentrations, Group companies ensure that their investment portfolios are diversified within the possibilities of their respective capital markets and legal frameworks, in accordance with local insurance regulations and their own internal rules. To avoid risk concentration at the Group level, additional Group-level limits are set by issuer, industry, region and credit rating. Thus, the Group prevents large concentrations within the investment portfolio, and limits any related risk. The Group's portfolio, broken down by these parameters and by rating, is shown in the 2020 annual report of the Sava Insurance Group and Sava Re d.d. in section 17.6.4.2.3 "Credit risk".
In addition, the Group carried out three stress tests on market
risk, applying various parameters that affect the level of the solvency capital requirement for market risk and the level of the Group's eligible own funds, and consequently its solvency position. The following table shows the results of individual stress tests.

26 The materiality threshold is an internal measure linked to the level of the Group's eligible own funds and SCR. The Group's materiality threshold is EUR 11 million based on a calculation as at 31 December 2020.
The first sensitivity test was an increase and decrease in interest rates. We carried out a stress test of interest rate sensitivity by raising and lowering the base curve of the riskfree interest rate for all maturities by 100 basis points. Then, we made a new calculation of eligible own funds and the SCR for all interest-rate-sensitive assets and liabilities. An increase in interest rates of 100 basis points resulted in a decrease in the Group's eligible own funds, as well as a decline in the Group SCR. The impact of the stress test on the solvency ratio is relatively small and comparable with the calculation of the stress test impact as at 31 December 2019. In a stress test, a decrease in interest rates of 100 basis points resulted in an increase in the Group's eligible own funds, as well as to some extent in the Group SCR. The impact on the Group's solvency ratio increased modestly compared to 2019, but remained small.
We also tested the sensitivity to a fall in the value of the Group's equity securities. The test involved a 20% drop in the value of equities at the reporting date. We also evaluated the impact of this change on best estimate provisions, which depends on the level of investments. We calculated the impact of the stress test on the Group's eligible own funds and the SCR. The stress test resulted in a decline in both the Group eligible own funds and the Group SCR, whereas the impact on the Group's solvency ratio remained very small despite the increase compared to 2019.
The impact of a change in property prices on the Group's solvency position was analysed through a stress test assuming a 25% fall in property prices. The calculation was made using the amount of property as at the reporting date. The stress test mainly caused a reduction in the Group's eligible own funds. In addition, there was a drop in the capital requirements of the property risk and currency risk sub-modules. Because eligible own funds decline in line with the Group SCR, the impact of the stress test on the Group's solvency ratio is minor and similar to that at 31 December 2019.
In addition to stress tests, the Group considered a number of scenarios and their impact on its operations and solvency position in the ORSA. We selected scenarios based on the own risk profile, striving to identify events with a potentially maximum impact on the operations and capital adequacy, and taking into account their probability of occurrence. As part of the assessment of market risk, we tested a financial crisis scenario that involved a strong deterioration in economic conditions, assuming a change in interest rates, credit spreads and exchange rates. Such a scenario would have an impact on the Group's eligible own funds that would exceed the Group's materiality threshold.26 This decline in the value of investments would also result in lower capital requirements for market risk and, consequently, a lower Group SCR, which would somewhat alleviate the impact on the solvency position. Despite the significant impacts, the Group will remain solvent even if such an extreme scenario realises. We also tested an inflation scenario, simulating an inflation shock (a 4 p.p. increase in inflation rate, approaching inflation targets over the next years). We calculated the impact on eligible own funds and the Group SCR. The scenario would result in a material fall in the Group's eligible own funds and a marginal drop in the Group SCR. Such a scenario would consequently have a material impact on the Group's solvency ratio, but it would not compromise the Group's solvency owing to the Group's high solvency ratio. designed in accordance with the prudent person principle. All assets are invested in such a way as to ensure the security, quality, liquidity and profitability of the portfolio as a whole. In addition, these assets are localised to ensure their availability. Assets held to cover technical provisions are invested in a manner appropriate to the nature and duration of the (re) insurance liabilities. These assets are invested in the best interest of all policyholders and beneficiaries. Each Group company has in place a limit system based on applicable legislation and its risk appetite. Group companies have in place set exposure limits for specific investment classes and commercial issuers. Exposure to individual commercial and government issuers is monitored at both individual Group company and Group levels. In case of a conflict of interest, each Group company ensures that the investment is made in the best interest of policyholders and beneficiaries.
The Group makes investment decisions that take into account all investment-related risks, not only risks considered in the calculation of its capital requirement. In the optimisation process, strategic asset allocation is defined based on risk appetite and restrictions imposed by local legislation.
Persons responsible for undertaking investment decisions assume and manage investment risk in line with the guidelines set out in the investment risk management policy, which is

Credit risk is the risk of loss or adverse change in the Group's financial position resulting from fluctuations in the credit standing of issuers, counterparties and any debtors to which the Group is exposed.
Credit risk is composed of:
Spread and market concentration risks are discussed and presented in section C.2 Market risk, in accordance with the risk classification and measurement under the Standard Formula. Later in this section, we provide details regarding counterparty default risk.
Counterparty default risk includes losses due to unexpected default or deterioration in the credit standing of counterparties and debtors over the next twelve months. This risk covers risk-mitigating contracts, such as reinsurance contracts, receivables, as well as other credit exposures not covered in the spread risk sub-module of the Standard Formula (cash and cash equivalents and deposits to cedants). Receivables-related credit risk arises from delays in the payment of receivables arising from the Group's primary insurance and accepted reinsurance business, and in the payment of recourse receivables. To avoid such delays, the Group closely monitors policyholders and cedants, and actively collects overdue receivables. Therefore, the Group's exposure to counterparty default risk is low.
The Group makes quantitative assessments of credit risk using the Standard Formula. As mentioned, spread and market concentration risks are assessed within the market risk module, whereas counterparty default risk is assessed in a separate module. This section will set out the results for counterparty default risk, whereas market risk is discussed in section C.2 Market risk.
The Group's solvency capital requirement in accordance with the Standard Formula for counterparty default risk amounted to EUR 25.0 million as at 31 December 2020 (31 December 2019: EUR 25.4 million) or 6.1% (31 December 2019: 7.5%) of the total SCR of all risk modules. The risk as at 31 December 2020 has remained at a similar level to 31 December 2019.
The following chart shows the composition of the counterparty default risk module in accordance with the Standard Formula by risk sub-module. The share of each risk sub-module is expressed as a percentage of the total of all counterparty default risk sub-modules.

Type 1 exposure includes exposures related to reinsurance and co-insurance contracts, cash and cash equivalents, and deposits to cedants. Type 2 exposure includes all receivables of the Solvency II balance sheet not included under type 1 exposure other than tax assets and deferred tax assets.
In addition to the calculation of the solvency capital requirement in accordance with the Standard Formula, the Group uses its own model (in ORSA) to assess credit risk relating to financial investments. This model takes account of spread, migration and default risks for all investments in debt instruments. Closely interrelated, these risks are addressed within a single model in the ORSA and discussed as part of market risk. As regards counterparty default risk related to reinsurers and co-insurers, and deposits to cedants, we believe that the Standard Formula appropriately evaluates the risk and, therefore, made no own calculations for this part. We believe that counterparty default risk related to cash and cash equivalents is manageable, which is why we use a zero capital requirement for them in the ORSA. In our own credit risk calculation, we also consider the diversification effect.
The Group has no significant concentration with counterparty default risk.
To avoid late payments, Group companies closely monitor policyholders, and actively collect overdue unpaid receivables.
Group companies manage the risk associated with reinsurance and co-insurance contract assets by limiting the exposure to any one reinsurer and co-insurer and by entering into contracts with highly-rated partners. Group companies
mainly arrange reinsurance directly with the parent company. Exceptionally, if so required by local regulations, they buy reinsurance from providers of assistance services and local reinsurers. In such cases, local reinsurers transfer the risk to Sava Re, so that the actual exposure to counterparty default risk arising from assets under reinsurance contracts is low.
The Group manages credit risk arising from cash and cash equivalents by means of diversification through a number of banks, with each individual Group company defining its exposure limits to individual issuers.
The Group monitors and reports on credit risk exposure on a quarterly basis, which ensures timely actions. Partner credit ratings are also monitored, with a focus on any indications of their potential downgrade. To this end, the Group has put in place a process for reviewing external credit ratings by the credit rating committee, which operates as part of the risk management committee.
In its review of reinsurer credit ratings as part of the capital adequacy calculation, the Group tested the impact of a onenotch deterioration in reinsurer credit standing. Calculations were made using reinsurers' credit ratings and exposures to them on the reporting date. The stress test results in increased capital requirements for the counterparty default risk submodule and, via minority interests, it increases the Group's eligible own funds. The following table shows the results of a stress test conducted.

The stress test of a one-notch ratings downgrade of reinsurers results in a slight increase in the Group's eligible own funds with an increase in the Group's SCR, which leads to a decline of one percentage point in the solvency ratio of the Group. This decline is very small, so the ratio remained at a similar level to 31 December 2019.

28 Undertaking for collective investment in transferable securities.
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not have sufficient liquid assets to meet its obligations as they fall due, and will have to sell its less liquid assets at a discount or raise new loans. Liquidity risk should be understood as risk arising from short-term cash flows rather than risk arising from long-term mismatch of assets and liabilities.
The Group has substantial monetary obligations (mainly to policyholders), and must therefore adequately manage its cash flows, ensuring an appropriate level of liquidity. Group companies carefully plan and monitor realised cash flows (cash inflows and outflows). Furthermore, they regularly monitor the receivables aging analysis, considering the impact of receivables settlement on their current liquidity position.
Liquidity risk is difficult to quantify and hence is not covered by the Standard Formula. Therefore, the Group does not manage liquidity risk by holding additional capital, but rather centres its approach on monitoring and managing risk.
In accordance with their capabilities, Group companies determine their exposures to liquidity risk by implementing, analysing and monitoring risk measures:
The estimated liquidity requirement of an individual Group company is composed of the estimated normal current liquidity requirement (arising from operations and investment maturity) and a liquidity buffer (estimated based on scenarios).
liquidity buffer represented by this difference, • any other legally required measures. C.4.3 Risk concentration The Group is not exposed to a concentration of liquidity risk, but may, due to the nature of the business, in certain cases still face certain emergency liquidity needs. C.4.4 Risk management The Group defined liquidity risk as one of its key risk exposures in its risk strategy. In order to effectively manage liquidity risk, the Company has also adopted a liquidity risk management policy, which sets out the risk management processes and risk measures, as well as the processes involved in the case of emergency liquidity needs. Due to the nature of liquidity risk, Liquidity requirements are met by allocating funds to money market instruments in the percentage consistent with the estimated normal current liquidity requirement. In this regard, the Group's EU-based insurers maintain liquidity buffers of highly liquid assets accounting for at least 20% of their investment portfolios (category L1A under the ECB methodology, investments in US government bonds, government and supranational issuers rated AAA and AA+, cash and cash equivalents, and money market funds to manage UCITS).28 Other Group companies use cash in bank accounts and short-term deposits as short-term assets for ensuring liquidity. As at 31 December 2020, the EU-based Group insurers held a level of highly liquid assets significantly exceeding the 20% requirement set in the risk strategy: Zavarovalnica Sava 41%, Vita 35% and Sava Re 46%. Extreme liquidity requirements of Group companies not based in Slovenia are attended to by the parent company, since these represent less than 5% of the Group's liquidity.
Group companies conduct assessments of normal current liquidity requirements within a period of up to one year based on projected three-month and weekly cash flows, which take account of the planned investment maturity dynamics and of other inflows and outflows from operations by using historical data from previous monthly and weekly liquidity plans and expectations regarding future performance.
the Group does not manage such risk by holding additional capital, but through an appropriate strategy for ensuring sufficient liquidity. Each Group company also regularly monitors its receivables
ageing analysis, assessing any impact on the current liquidity position.
Based on the above, we believe that the Group's liquidity risk is low and well managed.
Expected profits included in future premiums (hereinafter: EPIFP) that the Group, in accordance with article 260(2) of the Delegated Regulation, calculated as the difference between technical provisions without a risk margin calculated in accordance with Solvency II and a calculation of the technical provisions without a risk margin under the assumption that the premiums relating to existing insurance

and reinsurance contracts that are expected to be received in the future are not received for any reason other than the insured event having occurred, regardless of the legal or contractual rights of the policyholder to discontinue the policy. In the latter calculation, a 100% policy lapse rate is assumed, and for life insurance, all policies are treated as paidup.

Operational risk is the risk of loss arising from inadequate or failed internal processes, personnel or systems, or from external events.
Operational risks are not among the Group's most significant risk exposures. Nevertheless, some are relatively important, in particular:
The Group's major risks also include cyber risks. It is important for the Group to lower this risk, as its realisation can lead to a complete interruption of business and extensive financial damage. This is why the Group regularly upgrades the management of and limits exposure to these risks.
The Group calculates its capital requirements for operational risks by using the Standard Formula at least annually. This calculation of operational risk, however, is only of limited
practical value as the Standard Formula is not based on the actual exposure of the Group to operational risk, but on an approximation calculated mainly based on consolidated premiums, provisions and expenses.
As at 31 December 2020, the solvency capital requirement for operational risk under the Standard Formula amounted to EUR 21.6 million (31 December 2019: EUR 18.1 million, representing 5.3% of the total SCR of all risk modules (31 December 2019: 5.3%). The capital requirement for operational risk increased in 2020, chiefly because Vita's inclusion in the Group.
Group companies and the Group assess operational risk mainly by qualitatively assessing the related probability and financial impact in the risk register, as well as by monitoring some indicators of operational risk. Through regular risk assessments, the Group companies and the Group obtain insight into the actual level of their exposure to these risks. In addition to risk registers maintained by individual Group companies, a register is also maintained at the Group level for risks arising at that level. Risks are assessed in the same way as at the individual Group company level.
The Group is not exposed to significant concentrations of operational risk; there is, however, an increase in risks related to ongoing development projects (e.g. IT risk, risk associated with the new accounting standards and new legal requirements).
Group companies have established processes for identifying, measuring, monitoring, managing and reporting on such risks for the effective management of operational risk. Such processes for operational risk management are also in place at the Group level. Accountability and operational risk management processes are set out in greater detail in the operational risk policy and the risk management rules of the Group.
The internal control system plays a key role in operational risk management, ensuring appropriate control activities and appropriate internal controls integrated into business processes and activities of individual Group companies put in place to mitigate and monitor risk. An adequate implementation of internal controls is the responsibility of individual organisational units in which internal controls are to be carried out.
The chief measures of operational risk management at the individual company and Group levels include:

All major internal controls related to operational risk are included in the risk registers of individual Group companies and the Group. The companies monitor weaknesses and newly introduced improvements in internal controls.
The Group and individual Group companies periodically report on assessed operational risks in risk reports. Risk reports are considered by the risk management committee (if set up in the company), the company's management board, the risk committee (if set up in the company) and the supervisory board. The risk management function and the risk management committee may issue recommendations to the management board for further steps and improvements to operational risk management.

Other material risks of the Group consist of strategic risks and investment contract risks.
Strategic risk is the risk of an unexpected decrease in the Group's or a company's value due to the adverse effects of management decisions, changes in the business and legal environment, and market developments. Such events could have an adverse effect on revenue or capital adequacy.
The Group is exposed to a variety of internal and external strategic risks. In 2020, the Group was exposed to the following key strategic risks:
Strategic risks are by nature very diverse, difficult to quantify and heavily dependent on various (including external) factors. Strategic risks are also not included in the calculation of the solvency capital requirement under the Standard Formula.
Therefore, individual Group companies as well as the Group assess strategic risks qualitatively in the risk register, assessing their likelihood and potential financial severity. In addition, key The Group companies and the Group mitigate individual strategic risks mainly through preventive measures.
Strategic risks are also managed by continually monitoring the realisation of short- and long-term goals of Group companies, and by monitoring regulatory changes in the pipeline and market developments.
strategic risks are evaluated by using qualitative analysis of various scenarios. Based on both analyses combined, we obtain an overview of the extent and change in the exposure to this type of risk. Risk concentration In 2020, the Group was not materially exposed to concentrations of strategic risk; however, these risks were elevated as a result of Covid-19. Risk management have taken steps aimed at mitigating reputation risk, such as setting up fit and proper procedures applicable to key employees, ensuring systematic operations of their respective compliance functions, having in place business continuity plans, developing stress tests and scenarios, and planning actions and response in case risks materialise. Risks related to reputation are also managed through seeking to improve services, timely and accurate reporting to supervisory bodies, and well-planned public communication. A crucial factor in ensuring good reputation and successful performance is the quality of services; therefore, each and every employee is responsible for improving the quality of services and customer satisfaction.
The Group is aware that its reputation is important for realising its business goals and achieving strategic plans in the long term. The risk strategy therefore identifies reputation risk as a key risk. Each Group company must seek to minimise the likelihood of actions that could have a material impact on its reputation or that of the Group. In addition, Group companies
In addition to being managed by the competent organisational units in Group companies, strategic risks are identified and managed by management bodies, risk management committees, risk management functions and the key functions of the risk management system. Strategic risks are additionally identified by the Group's risk management committee. The Group manages and mitigates regulatory risk by continually monitoring the anticipated legislative changes in all countries where Group companies are established or operate, and by assessing their potential impact on the operations of the Group in the short and long term. All Group insurers have established compliance functions to monitor and assess the adequacy and effectiveness of periodic procedures and measures taken to remedy any deficiencies in compliance with the law and other commitments.
Strategic risks also include project risks. The Group systematically monitors the risks for each key project, analysing and managing them to ensure the timely adoption of necessary measures. The risks associated with the Group's key projects are monitored and assessed by project team members as well as other stakeholders, also in the risk register.
The Group is paying increasing attention to risks associated with sustainable development. Sustainable development is among our top priorities in the 2020–2022 strategy period.

29 Insurance Distribution Directive.
30Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR).
Therefore, we have prepared and adopted a sustainable development strategy in cooperation with all Group companies. It provides for the disclosure of non-financial information relating to the environment, social issues, human resources, protection of human rights and anti-corruption policies. The Group adheres to the guidance provided by GRI (Global Initiative Reporting) standards, which cover sustainable development in a comprehensive way, looking at the Company's operations from all perspectives and taking account of all impacts – economic performance, impact on the environment and society at large. In connection with sustainable development, monitoring of sustainability risks and new legislation in the field of sustainability, a sustainability risk working group was set up at the Sava Insurance Group level in 2020 to monitor legislation relating to sustainability risk and developments in this field. The forthcoming amendments to the Solvency II delegated regulation and IDD29 already foresee the integration of sustainability risk into the risk management system. In the coming years, we will continue our efforts to contribute to sustainable development; however, it will be a challenge to monitor risks associated with sustainable development and social responsibility. In addition, we will focus on the effective implementation of SFDR30 regulations. For more information on sustainable development, see the Group's annual report, section 13 "Sustainable development in the Sava Insurance Group".
The Group's investment contracts include assets from annuity-certain contracts, which under accounting standards are classified as investment contracts, and life cycle fund assets relating to supplementary pension insurance of Sava Pokojninska in the accumulation phase. Investment contract assets as at 31 December 2020 totalled EUR 158.8 million (31 December 2019: EUR 151.2 million). For the purpose of calculating capital adequacy, the company Sava Pokojninska is consolidated in accordance with the rules

(SFDR).
applicable to other financial sectors, and is not considered in the modules of the Standard Formula. The risks associated with the company are therefore not discussed as part of underwriting or market risks. The capital requirement for the company Sava Pokojninska was calculated in accordance with sectoral regulations and amounted to EUR 6.3 million as at 31 December 2020 (31 December 2019: EUR 6.0 million).
Based on its investment contract assets and liabilities, the Group is exposed to the risk of not achieving the guaranteed return on the MZS fund. Policyholders under (members of) the supplementary pension insurance business therefore bear the entire investment risk arising out of the two funds, MDS and MUS, and the investment risk above the guaranteed return of the MZS fund. The guaranteed return on MGF is 60% of the average annual interest rate on government securities with a maturity of over one year.
The risk of failing to realise guaranteed returns is managed primarily through an appropriate management of policyholders' assets and liabilities, an appropriate investment strategy, an adequate capital level and provisioning. The Group tests its risk exposure arising out of guaranteed return through stress tests and scenarios as part of its own risk and solvency assessment. We assess that the risk of having to contribute funds in order to deliver the guaranteed return did not change compared to 2019.
Sava Penzisko Društvo only manages assets; funds do not provide a guaranteed return. Therefore, the company is not exposed to the risk arising from investment contracts in case of failure to realise guaranteed return.

The basis for the balance sheet in accordance with Solvency II (hereinafter: Solvency II balance sheet), where assets and liabilities are valued in accordance with the valuation principles set out in articles 174–190 of the ZZavar-1, is the consolidated balance sheet as prepared for Group reporting under the International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU (hereinafter: IFRS balance sheet).
The Group uses the full consolidation method for all its companies in the preparation of the IFRS consolidated financial statements, except for the associates ZTSR and G2I, which have been consolidated using the equity method. For the purpose of the valuation of the Solvency II balance sheet, however, all Group (re)insurance undertakings and all ancillary services undertakings are consolidated in accordance with article 335 1(a) of the Delegated Regulation, the Sava Pokojninska pension company and Sava Infond are included in the consolidation in accordance with article 335 1(e), whereas Sava Penzisko Društvo and the associates ZTSR and G2I are included in accordance with article 335 1(f).
For the purposes of determining the Group's solvency position, assets are stated – in accordance with article 174 of the Slovenian Insurance Act (ZZavar-1) – at amounts for which they could be exchanged between knowledgeable and willing parties in an arm's length transaction.
Liabilities are valued at amounts for which they could be transferred or settled between knowledgeable and willing parties in an arm's length transaction. The value of liabilities is not adjusted with respect to the Group's creditworthiness.
The valuation of assets is conducted in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the EU. If the IFRSs allow for several valuation methods, a method has to be chosen that is consistent with Solvency II principles as set out in the Delegated Regulation and other Solvency II implementing regulations. In other cases of assets and liabilities (apart from technical provisions; TP) the IFRSs provide for valuation consistent with Solvency II principles.
The fundamentals, methods and main assumptions used at the level of the Group in the valuation of the Group's assets, technical provisions (TP) and other liabilities for solvency purposes, are generally no different from those used by any of the Group companies in its own valuation of assets, technical provisions and other liabilities for Solvency II purposes.
The Group holds no material off-balance sheet liabilities that it would be required to account for as contingent liabilities in the Solvency II balance sheet; however, it holds off-balance sheet liabilities arising from commitments for payments into alternative funds.
The reclassification and revaluation of Solvency II balance sheet items is based on the IFRS balance sheet. This section describes the implementation of such reclassifications and revaluations for items where the Solvency II value differs from the IFRS value. For more details on the IFRS valuation, refer to the Group's annual report, section 17.4 "Significant accounting policies". The following tables show the Group's balance sheet as at 31 December 2020 and 31 December 2019. This includes the values of assets and liabilities under the IFRSs (before and after adjustments for the company Sava Pokojninska, Sava Penzisko Društvo and Sava Infond) as well as assets and liabilities in accordance with the valuation principles set out in articles 174–190 of ZZavar-1 (Solvency II balance sheet), taking into account the revaluations and reclassifications of asset and liability items.
In accordance with article 267 of the Delegated Regulation, the Group set up a control procedure to ensure that the estimates used in the valuation of assets and liabilities are reliable and appropriate to ensure compliance with article 174, paragraph 2 of ZZavar-1, and a periodic review procedure to verify that market values and input data are reliable.
Where alternative valuation models are used (in accordance with article 263 of the Delegated Regulation), the following must be ensured:
appropriateness of the valuation approach.

We set out below the individual categories of assets, along with the methods of their valuation.
Goodwill is stated at nil in the Group's Solvency II balance sheet.
Deferred acquisition costs are stated at nil in the Group's Solvency II balance sheet.
The Group has not identified any intangible assets that may be sold separately and for which it cannot prove that there is a market value for identical or similar assets. The value of intangible assets in the Group's Solvency II balance sheet is stated at nil.
The Group accounts deferred tax assets and liabilities in the IFRS balance sheet in line with IAS 12; "Income Taxes".
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are defined based on identified temporary differences. These are differences between the tax value and the carrying amount of assets or liabilities. Temporary differences may be taxable temporary differences, either amounts to be added to the taxable profit in future periods, or amounts to be deducted from the taxable profit in future periods. Deferred taxes are thus recognised as either deferred tax assets or liabilities as a result of accounting for current and future tax implications.
Deferred tax liabilities are income taxes payable in future periods depending on taxable temporary differences. In periods of recognition, they increase income tax expenses and decrease net profit.
As a general rule, the recognition of deferred tax liabilities is mandatory, while deferred tax assets only need to be recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilised.
In the IFRS balance sheet, deferred tax assets and liabilities are accounted for at tax rates at which the management estimates differences will actually be taxed.
In the Solvency II balance sheet, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised based on the IFRS value of deferred tax assets and liabilities plus additional deferred tax assets and liabilities relating to revaluations for the Solvency II balance sheet.
In the Solvency II balance sheet, deferred tax assets and liabilities are accounted for on all revaluations apart from: • the revaluation of the "participations in subsidiaries and associates" item if considered strategic investments, based on which revaluation differences cases are treated
Deferred tax relating to revaluation for the Solvency II balance sheet is accounted for at tax rates applicable in the Republic of Slovenia (19%), where the parent is based which draws up the consolidated accounts.
Pursuant to Solvency II principles, the Group reports a net deferred tax liability resulting from revaluations in the amount of EUR 19.6 million (2019: EUR 28.2 million). The following table provides a detailed overview by item.

In 2020, net deferred tax liabilities in the Solvency II balance sheet fell by EUR 2.9 million. The main impact arises from the revaluation of technical provisions.
Every three years, the Group obtains fair value valuations of its main properties held for own use from independent external property appraisers. In assessing fair value and fair value less costs to sell, certified property appraisers take into account the International Valuation Standards and the International Accounting Standards. The appraisal includes verifying the adequacy of all the methods used for appraising property rights. Depending on the purpose of the valuation and the quantity of available data, a market value appraisal makes use of the market approach and the income approach.
Equipment for the direct transacting of reinsurance business represents an immaterial amount and is stated at the same level in both the Solvency II and IFRS balance sheets. Similarly, the valuation of right-of-use assets is the same in both the Solvency II and IFRS balance sheets.
The methodology is consistent with the methodology used for property, plant and equipment held for own use, which is described in detail in section D.1.5 Property, plant and equipment held for own use. The proprietary holiday facilities constitute a non-material part of assets; therefore, we do not have them appraised by external independent appraisers.
In accordance with article 335(1)(e) of the Delegated Regulation, the data of the EU-based pension and fund management companies (Sava Pokojninska and Sava Infond) was not fully consolidated. Thus, these two companies remained part of the investments in subsidiaries and associates item of the adjusted IFRS balance sheet, valued at their carrying amounts. In the Solvency II balance sheet they are stated in the amount equal to the proportional share of their own funds, i.e. the amount of available capital calculated under sectoral regulations applicable to pension and fund management companies in the Republic of Slovenia.
In accordance with article 335(1)(f) of the Delegated Regulation, no full consolidation was carried out for data of the Group's non-EU-based pension companies (Sava Penzisko Društvo). These companies are included in the investments in subsidiaries and associates item of the adjusted IFRS balance sheet, stated at their carrying amount. On the other hand, they are valued using the IFRS equity method in the Solvency II balance sheet, in accordance with article 13(5) of the Delegated Regulation.
In accordance with article 335(1)(f), the Group values interests in associate companies (ZTSR and G2I) in the Solvency II balance sheet using the IFRS equity method in compliance with article 13(5) of the Delegated Regulation. The value of goodwill and other intangible assets that would be valued at nil under the asset valuation methodology is deducted from the obtained value of the companies.
The item includes equity securities (shares) listed on a stock exchange. These financial instruments are classified as either available for sale or carried at fair value through profit or loss,

in accordance with IAS 39. In the IFRS balance sheet they are valued at fair value (market value).
The valuation methodology for listed shares under Solvency II is consistent with the methodology used for the IFRS balance sheet valuation, as marketable shares are already stated at their market value, rendering a restatement for the purpose of the Solvency II balance sheet redundant.
Equities not listed on a stock exchange are initially recognised at cost. As at the balance sheet date, their value is determined using a model. If the model shows that the cost is too high, an impairment loss is recognised in the amount of the difference between the model value and its cost.
Since unlisted equities represent an immaterial part of the Sava Insurance Group's investment portfolio, they are not stated at fair value in the Solvency II balance sheet but rather at the IFRS balance sheet amount.
For the purposes of the IFRS balance sheet valuation, bonds are measured in accordance with IAS 39. They are measured based on the IAS category into which they are classified.
All bonds, other than bonds classified as held to maturity, are valued in the Solvency II balance sheet in accordance with IAS 39. Bonds classified as held to maturity are revalued to fair value in the Solvency II balance sheet based on their market value as at the reporting date.
Into this item, the Group reclassifies bonds from registers of assets supporting obligations to policyholders who bear the investment risk where the Group provides a guarantee (guaranteed NAVPS) if the investment items for the benefit of life policyholders who bear the investment risk are presented in accordance with IFRSs. If these bonds have been classified as HTM in the IFRS balance sheet and valued at amortised cost, a revaluation to market value is conducted for the purpose of the Solvency II balance sheet.
The Group obtains market prices from the Bloomberg system, the local stock exchange and other markets on which bonds are listed.
In 2020, the Group held no structured notes.
The IFRS value is calculated based on the most recent published net asset value per share (hereinafter: NAVPS). The IFRS value is the market value of investment funds. Notwithstanding their classification, the carrying amount of these funds equals their market value and is calculated using the formula: NAVPS as at the valuation day * number of lots. Details on NAVPS amounts are obtained from asset managers.
The valuation methodology under Solvency II is consistent with the methodology used for the IFRS balance sheet valuation, as investment funds are already stated at their market value, rendering a restatement for the purposes of the Solvency II balance sheet redundant.
Into this item, the Group reclassifies investment funds from registers of assets supporting obligations to policyholders who bear the investment risk where the Group provides a guarantee (guaranteed NAVPS) if the investment items for the benefit of life policyholders who bear the investment risk are presented in accordance with IFRSs.
The value of alternative funds (real-estate and infrastructure funds, private debt funds, private equity funds) for the purpose of IFRS reporting is shown on the basis of the unit value (net asset value per unit) provided by the fund manager or as the value of assets invested. Fund managers generally make valuations by using methods that comply with International Private Equity and Venture Capital Valuation standards, such as discounting of cash flows and the multiples method.
We assume that both approaches used in the IFRS balance sheet are the best approximation for market valuation; therefore, the value of these investments in the Solvency II balance sheet are consistent with the IFRS balance sheet presentation.
These deposits are measured at amortised cost or acquisition cost plus accrued interest.

Valuation in the Solvency II balance sheet is consistent with the methodology used for the IFRS balance sheet. Deposits other than cash equivalents are not subject to revaluation; we estimate that their carrying amount is a reasonable approximation of their market value.
Deposits with an original maturity of up to three months are reclassified in the Solvency II balance sheet from the cash and cash equivalents item to the deposits other than cash equivalents item.
Assets of unit-linked business without financial guarantees are shown in the Solvency II balance sheet under the item "investments for the benefit of life-insurance policyholders who bear the investment risk". If assets relating to insurance contracts where policyholders bear the investment risk with the Group guaranteeing a defined level of return (guaranteed NAVPS) are recorded, in line with IFRS, in the item "investments for the benefit of life-insurance policyholders who bear the investment risk", these are reclassified in the Solvency II balance sheet to other financial investments covering life insurance obligations.
Investments that in the Solvency II balance sheet are included in investments for covering obligations of policyholders who bear the investment risk are valued in the IFRS balance sheet at market value, rendering a revaluation for the Solvency II balance sheet redundant.
HTM bond investments for the benefit of policyholders who bear the investment risk that are reclassified to other financial investments in the Solvency II balance sheet are revalued to market value.
provisions are described in the notes to the Group's financial statements in the annual report section 17.4.24 "Technical provisions".
The reinsurers' share of technical provisions is measured by the actuaries of Group companies. The methodology takes into account the guidelines set out in the underwriting and reserving risk policy.
The Group establishes premium provisions for reinsurance ceded, taking into account reclassifications of items for (1) not-past-due receivables for commission from ceded reinsurance and co-insurance business and (2) accrued liabilities for premiums for ceded reinsurance and coinsurance.
D.1.7 Loans and mortgages Loans and mortgages are initially recognised at their contract value. As at the balance sheet date, they are stated at amortised cost in accordance with the amortisation plan, taking into account the actual interest and principal payments. If payments are not made in accordance with the amortisation plan, amounts must be impaired. The Solvency II balance sheet and the IFRS balance sheet valuations are the same. D.1.8 Reinsurers' share of technical provisions Hereinafter, we will use the term "Solvency II provisions" for technical provisions calculated in line with Solvency II regulations and "IFRS provisions" for technical provisions calculated in line with the International Financial Reporting Standards. The main principles used in calculating IFRS same actuarial methods as for calculating gross provisions. We apply simplifications, calculating the share of the retrocession business based on retrocession data for each homogeneous group and each cohort. Using the share thus obtained, retroceded best estimate provisions (before costs, reclassifications and discounting) are calculated from gross best estimate provisions (before taking into account the costs, future cash flows from premiums and provisions, and without taking into account the time value of money). The currency structure and the time value of money are taken into account in the same way as for gross best estimate provisions. In designing cash flows, historical data on paid claims are used to check for a possible time delay in retrocession payments as opposed to gross disbursements. Adjustments for a counterparty's anticipated default are made on the basis of the amount of the reinsurers' share of technical provisions (for the IFRS balance sheet valuation) being divided according to the credit ratings of counterparties and the probability of default associated with these ratings.
As ceded co-insurance and reinsurance business generates relatively small premium volumes, the reinsurers' share of technical provisions cannot be calculated using the
Under reinsurance contracts, cedants may retain a part of the reinsurance premiums as a guarantee for the payment of future claims, such retained premiums being generally released after one year. These deposits bear contractuallyagreed interest. Deposits to cedants are stated at cost, less any adjustments.
As these investments are short-term, their carrying amount is considered a sufficiently good approximation of their market value. The market value of such deposits is therefore not calculated in the model, whereas the market value for the Solvency II balance sheet is taken to be the IFRS balance sheet value.

Insurance and intermediaries receivables comprise receivables arising out of primary insurance operations (insurance premium receivables), receivables for premiums arising out of assumed co-insurance and reinsurance, recourse receivables and intermediaries receivables.
Receivables are initially recognised based on policies issued, invoices or other authentic documents. At every balance sheet date, the fair value of receivables in the IFRS balance sheet is determined by assessing whether it is doubtful that receivables will be repaid or whether there is objective evidence of their impairment. Allowances are made in line with the adopted methodology (taking into account the age, the phase of the collection procedure, historical data on the percentage of write-offs made and the ratio of collectability) and individual judgement.
Recourse receivables are recognised as assets only if, on the basis of a recourse claim, an appropriate legal basis exists. Even if subrogation is applicable, recourse receivables are recognised only after the debtor's existence and contactability have been verified. Recognition of principal amounts to which recourse receivables relate decreases claims paid. Group companies recognise impairment losses on recourse receivables based on past experience.
The Group eliminates the items of not-past-due insurance receivables and not-past-due receivables for premiums arising out of assumed reinsurance and co-insurance from the item insurance and intermediaries receivables of the Solvency II balance sheet. The Group factors this item in as future cash flows when calculating gross best estimate premium provisions. Since the entire change in premium provisions is disclosed as a reclassification, not-past-due receivables are eliminated in the same way when compiling the Solvency II balance sheet.
Reinsurance and co-insurance receivables are recognised when claims and commission relating to ceded reinsurance and co-insurance are charged to reinsurers (retrocessionaires) or co-insurers. The Group individually assesses receivables in terms of their recoverability or impairment. Allowances for receivables are set based on payment history of individual retrocessionaires. Receivables have a contractual maturity of less than one year.
The Solvency II balance sheet valuation of receivables does not differ from the IFRS balance sheet valuation. The valuation of other receivables in the IFRS balance sheet is the same as the valuation of insurance and intermediaries receivables described in section D.1.10 Insurance and intermediaries receivables.
The Group eliminates from the reinsurance receivables item of the Solvency II balance sheet the two items: not-past-due receivables for commission from the reinsurer's retroceded business and not-past-due receivables for commission from the insurers' ceded reinsurance and co-insurance business. The Group takes these items into account as future cash flows when calculating future cash flows for the reinsurers' share of the best estimate premium provision. Changes in receivables and premium provisions are recognised as reclassifications.
This item comprises receivables for claims and commission of ceded reinsurance and co-insurance business. Measurement for the Solvency II balance sheet is the same as for the IFRS balance sheet as the carrying amount constitutes a sufficient approximation of fair value.
Other receivables include short-term receivables from the government and other institutions, short-term trade receivables, short-term receivables due from employees, short-term receivables due from leasing out premises and equipment, and other short-term receivables.
The Solvency II balance sheet valuation of receivables does not differ from the IFRS balance sheet valuation. The Solvency II and IFRS balance sheet valuation of cash and cash equivalents is the same.
In the IFRS balance sheet, own shares are stated as a contra account in equity. The Group recognises own shares in the amount of their purchase price on a regulated or nonregulated market. Consistent with the provisions of article 36 of IAS 32 "Financial Instruments – Presentation", they are not revalued to fair value even if they are listed on a regulated securities market.
The Solvency II balance sheet presents own shares under assets. Since the parent company's own shares are listed on a regulated market, they are restated at their stock exchange price for the purposes of the Solvency II balance sheet as at the balance sheet date.
Deposits with an original maturity of up to three months are treated in the Solvency II balance sheet in the same way as deposits with longer maturities, and they are therefore reclassified under deposits other than cash equivalents.

Other assets include short-term deferred costs and shortterm accrued income. Short-term deferred costs comprise prepaid costs of insurance, licenses, rent and similar.
Other assets are valued for the purpose of the Solvency II balance sheet following the cash-flow aspect. Items for which the cash flow has already occurred are revalued to nil. Other items are recognised in the Solvency II balance sheet at the same amounts as in the IFRS balance sheet.

The Group establishes the gross premium provision, reclassifying the items of not-past-due premium receivables relating to direct insurance, accepted reinsurance and coinsurance, and accrued commission payables relating to accepted reinsurance and co-insurance business. Specificities of individual companies are taken into consideration.
The valuation of gross technical provisions, including the reinsurers' share thereof, is conducted by the actuarial departments of Group companies. The valuation of the reinsurers' share of the Solvency II provisions (best estimate provisions for accepted business) is described under valuation of assets, in section D.1.8. Reinsurers' share of technical provisions. The methodology follows the guidelines set out in the Group's underwriting and reserving risk policy and complies with applicable actuarial methods.
In the calculation of Solvency II provisions, the Group does not apply the matching adjustment referred to in article 182 of ZZavar-1 (or article 77(b) of Directive 2009/138/EC), the volatility adjustment referred to in article 184 of ZZavar-1 (or article 77(d) of Directive 2009/138/EC), the transitional adjustment of the risk-free interest rate term structure referred to in article 639 (or article 308(c) of Directive 2009/138/EC), or the transitional deduction referred to in article 640 of ZZavar-1 (or article 308(d) of Directive 2009/138/EC).
The Group establishes the following categories of Solvency II provisions:
direct non-life insurance business (provisions for non-life annuities),
Solvency II provisions are equal to the sum of a best estimate and a risk margin. The above-mentioned categories of provisions are described in more detail later in this section.
Claims provisions relate to loss events that have already occurred while the claims are yet to be resolved, whether claims have been reported or not. The best estimate is calculated taking into account the weighted average of all possible scenarios and the time value of cash flows, which means that all cash flows are discounted using risk-free interest rate term structures. The calculation also includes all expenses relating to the period from the date of the loss event to the date when it is accounted for, including any anticipated future recourse receivables from those claims.
Provisions for claims incurred but not yet paid are established based on historic data from previous years and are calculated together for reported claims and claims that have not yet been reported.
Each individual Group insurer calculates best estimate gross claims provisions for each homogeneous risk group using at least two of the following methods:
claims are reported or paid;
The most important assumptions in calculating the best estimate claims provisions (short: BE CP) are:

and, if necessary, adjusted taking into account future expectations and trends in the levels of loss adjustment expenses;
For the most recent accident year (2020), the total average expected ultimate loss ratio is somewhat lower than in the calculation as at 31 December 2019 for the 2019 accident year. This improvement mostly reflects a better loss experience (especially in motor business) due to Covid-19-related measures.
The premium provision refers to loss events that will occur after the valuation date, i.e. during the remaining period of validity of the insurance coverage. It is calculated for those contracts that are active at the date of the calculation and is made up of all estimated future cash flows within the boundaries of insurance contracts (hereinafter: contract

premiums due to early termination of contracts are determined based on the data of the previous year, which, if necessary, is adjusted in accordance with expectations.
The total expected ultimate loss ratio used in the calculation of the best estimate premium provision as at 31 December 2020 is somewhat lower than the one used in the calculation of the best estimate premium provision as at 31 December 2019, which agrees with the expected ultimate loss ratio from the best estimate claims provision calculation as the result of a lower loss frequency primarily in motor business during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Best estimate provisions for annuities stemming from non-life insurance (hereinafter: best estimate provision for non-life annuities) are calculated separately from the best estimate claims provisions for non-life insurance business due to the specific mode of benefit payments. It is separately determined for:
The assumptions used in the calculation of best estimate provisions for reported non-life annuities (whether in the payout phase or not) are:
• expected proportion of loss adjustment expenses in future claim payments: the proportion of loss adjustment expenses as a percentage of future annuity payouts is determined based on historic data relating to the previous accounting year;
The assumptions used in the calculation of best estimate provisions for non-life annuities not yet reported are: • expected number of such annuities determined based on past years, loss events and outlook,
The expected average subsequently reported annuity for the calculation at the end of 2020 was almost at the same level as in 2019.
To the extent that the insurance contract meets all of the following three conditions:
Best estimate provisions for life insurance business are made at the insurance contract level using unified assumptions for individual homogeneous groups of life insurance policies. These are roughly divided into traditional life (endowment, term life, whole life, life annuities), unit-linked life (guaranteed or not, term life or whole life) and similar-to-life-technique health insurance. The calculation is made based on best estimates of future contractual cash flows, including best estimates of all contractual cash flows and of related cash flows such as claims handling costs, administrative expenses and financial income from invested assets covering the obligations arising from insurance contracts. Best estimate claims provisions for life insurance business are calculated separately. • income from investments (investment management charges). For individual contracts, the following needs to be considered: • annual premiums, payment frequency, death benefits, critical illness and maturity benefits; • product technical bases: technical interest rate, mortality and morbidity tables, expenses, • assumptions: the proportion of unrealised mortality and morbidity, lapse rate, future profitability, realised expenses, future inflation. For cash flows estimated until the policy expiry, their present value as at the reporting date is calculated using the risk-
the contract boundary is then assumed to be equal to the valuation date and thus no future premiums are taken into account in the cash-flow projection. The contract is valued as a combination of technical provisions calculated as a whole and best estimate provisions. In the case of a purely unit-linked insurance policy, the contract is valued as technical provisions calculated as a whole for the amount of the value of assets in investment funds, and the difference between expected actual and accrued costs is valued through the establishment of a best estimate provision.
The expected contractual cash flows include:

free interest rate. In respect of the majority of life policies, a separate estimate of the present value of embedded options and guarantees is made, using stochastic economic scenarios or an approximation method. The future dynamic behaviour of policyholders has not been modelled, while future management actions have only been modelled for the calculation of the present value of options and guarantees where it is anticipated that amounts in the fair value reserve will be realised in the event of scenarios if certain investment income – before realising fair value gains – does not meet the required level based on interest guarantees in traditional life policies.
Best estimate provisions for guaranteed payouts upon childbirth are calculated based on the anticipated number and level of payments for written policies. These provisions are calculated based on estimated future payments calculated using the triangle method, taking into account the number of births by policy year and development year or based on analytical formulas. The present value of the cash flows is calculated using the risk-free interest rate.
Best estimate claims provisions for life business are calculated using the method of average claims, making separate estimates for the provision for incurred reported claims and for the provision for incurred but not reported claims (IBNR). Best estimate provisions for incurred reported claims are equal to case provisions. Best estimate provisions for incurred but not reported claims are calculated as the product of the ultimate number of IBNR claims (estimate from the triangle of reported claims) and the average level of IBNR claims. For this purpose, only claims arising from death or critical illness are considered. The average level of IBNR claims is calculated as the average sum at risk for each homogeneous group of policies. The present value of the cash flows is calculated using the risk-free interest rate.
In 2020, all assumptions used were re-evaluated and certain minor changes were made. In some segments, expenses as a percentage of insurance rose as the result of smaller portfolios, and there were minor changes in expected lapse ratios and expected mortality. There have been no significant changes in assumptions in 2020 compared to 2019. Compared to 2019, unit-linked life insurance contracts with interest guarantees were transferred from the line of business "indexlinked and unit-linked insurance" to the line of business "other life insurance".
the "technical" claims provision (for incurred, but not yet settled claims);
Best estimate provisions for accepted reinsurance Calculations are made at the level of lines of business in accordance with annex 1 to the Delegated Regulation, separately for Group and non-Group business (for Group-level balances, after the elimination of intra-Group transactions, only the latter is considered). Due to the negligible volume and the nature of the obligations relating to accepted non-Group life reinsurance business, the methodology for the valuation of these obligations is the same as for non-life and NSLT health insurance; therefore, the obligations arising out of accepted life reinsurance are classified as NSLT health insurance. Best estimate provisions for accepted reinsurance consist of best estimate premium provisions and best estimate claims provisions. The calculation is based on the classification of business by underwriting year. The calculation of best estimate provisions comprises the following steps: • a calculation of the "technical" gross provision, which consists of the best estimate provision for loss events (both incurred and future) relating to business written prior to taking into account the time value of money; • the breakdown of the "technical" gross provision into the "technical" premium provision (for future claims) and "Technical" gross provisions are calculated using the chain-ladder method applied to cumulative paid claims triangles, taking into account the Bornhuetter-Ferguson (hereinafter: BF) modification. In the chain-ladder method, the development factors are selected based on the data from the years reflecting the nature of the portfolio for which the provision is calculated. If, due to extraordinary events, individual factors deviate excessively from the average, they are excluded from the calculation of development factors. The development tail is calculated using an approximation together with one distribution function: Exponential, Weibull, Power, Inverse Power; the R-squared criterion is applied in the selection of the distribution function. The BF prior loss ratio is selected based on the judgement of the actuary and the reinsurance underwriting department. If claims triangles are too dispersed, ultimate losses are assessed based on loss ratios. The expected incurred loss ratio for an underwriting year is set as the selected average of a pre-assessed naive loss ratio set by expert judgment, multi-year averages, information from the reinsurance underwriting department and the IFRS incurred loss ratio (excluding provisions at the portfolio level). For less recent years for which the development is known, greater weight is assigned to the realised ratio, whereas for more recent years, the naive loss ratio is assigned greater weight. For payment development or cash flow, the pattern is applied that is obtained from the triangle development. The joint view summarises the results of all methods, based on which best estimate ultimate losses are selected, which is then

used to calculate technical gross provisions.
Future loss adjustment and administrative expenses relating to contracts written are taken into account through expense ratios.
The basis for the split of cash inflows by currency is the currency composition for the IFRS valuation of the balance sheet. Future cash flows broken down by currency are discounted using the relevant risk-free interest rate term structures.
The most important assumptions underlying the calculation are the selection of an appropriate method for each line of business, which did not change in most lines of business in 2020, and the applied ultimate ratios, especially for the last underwriting year, which is subject to the greatest uncertainty due to unknown losses and unexpired coverage. For non-Group accepted reinsurance business of the most recent underwriting year, the ratio of expected ultimate claims and commissions as a percentage of expected ultimate premiums is somewhat higher year on year, largely due to Covid-19 related claims.
The risk margin, along with best estimate provisions, ensures that the value of the technical provisions is equal to the amount that another insurer would require to take on the liabilities towards policyholders, insured persons and other beneficiaries under the insurance contracts. The risk margin is calculated by determining the cost to insure the amount of eligible own funds equal to the solvency capital requirement necessary to support the insurance obligations during their validity or until their expiry. The rate used in determining the cost to ensure the above-mentioned amount of eligible own funds, being a spread above the relevant risk-free interest rate the risk margin is set as the sum of the risk margins of individual Group (re)insurance companies.
Each Group company takes into account all non-hedgeable risks in the calculation of the mentioned solvency capital requirement. These risks include:
that an insurer would take into account to ensure such eligible own funds, is set at 6%. In accordance with article 340 of the Delegated Regulation, solvency capital requirement (in accordance with article 37(3) of the Delegated Regulation). In the calculation of the solvency capital requirement for each line of business of a company we assume that policies are written only in the segments for which the capital requirement is calculated; also, only in the following risk modules is the capital requirement calculated for each segment:
In accordance with article 58 of the Delegated Regulation, the simplified calculation method is used by Group companies in projecting the solvency capital requirement, specifically level 2 of the hierarchy referred to in article 61 of the "Decision on detailed instructions for the evaluation of technical provisions" is taken into account: The total solvency capital requirement for each future year is calculated based on the ratio of the best estimate in that future year to the best estimate technical provisions as at the valuation date. Should this method prove to be inadequate for any company, level 3 of the hierarchy referred to in article 61 of the "Decision on detailed instructions for the evaluation of technical provisions" should be applied.
For composite insurance companies, the risk margin is calculated separately for life and non-life insurance, and is allocated to individual lines of business so as to adequately reflect the contributions of the lines of business to the
The following tables set out the values of gross best estimate provisions, the reinsurers' share of best estimate provisions and the risk margin as at 31 December 2020 and 31 December 2019 by line of business.

Movements are largely in line with portfolio volume, loss events and claims settlements. Thus, in the motor lines of business, gross best estimate claims provisions remained at roughly the prior-year level despite portfolio growth, due to a favourable loss experience. On the other hand, as the result of an unfavourable loss experience, especially in FoS business, and owing to Covid-19, there was a considerable increase in gross best estimate claims provisions in the lines of business "fire and other damage to property insurance and proportional reinsurance", miscellaneous financial loss and non-proportional property reinsurance.

The increase in best estimate technical provisions is chiefly due to Vita's inclusion in the Group, with further effects from portfolio movements, reclassifications and changes in valuation. The best estimate provision relating to health insurance declined as the result of writing new profitable business.
The increase in technical provisions in the "insurance with profit participation" line of business is largely due to Vita's inclusion in the Group but also a result of portfolio movements because of policy maturities at Zavarovalnica Sava.
The increase in technical provisions in the "index-linked and unit-linked insurance" line of business was mainly driven by Vita's inclusion in the Group, with additional effects from policy maturities and lapses. In this regard, the technical provision for policies that satisfied certain criteria was calculated as a whole. The increase in technical provisions was also partly the result of the reclassification of unit-linked policies with interest guarantees to the "other life insurance" line of business.
Technical provisions in the "other life insurance" line of business increased because of Vita's inclusion in the Group and the mentioned reclassification of unit-linked policies with interest guarantees.
In 2020, the provision for annuities stemming from non-life insurance increased compared to 2019 because of additions to the list of annuities and annuity provisions newly reported in 2020.

The risk margin increased compared to 31 December 2019, largely as the result of the Group's expansion and the increased solvency capital requirement of individual companies, which is the basis for calculating the risk margin.
The main differences in the valuation of technical provisions under Solvency II and IFRS are:
provisions must be sufficient to meet obligations only in the weighted average of all possible scenarios, whereas IFRS provisions must be sufficient in the vast majority of cases. Accordingly, assumptions for IFRS provisions are more prudent. When comparing the most material assumption about the expected ultimate loss ratio for non-life lines of business for the most recent year (where the uncertainty is largest), it stood at 66% for IFRS claims provisions (31 December 2019: 71%) and 58% for Solvency II best estimate claims provisions (31 December 2019: 60%). • Solvency II provisions for non-life insurance take into account the time value of money, whereas the corresponding IFRS provisions are generally not discounted. As interest rates are currently very low, this has no material effect on the difference between IFRS and
Solvency II provisions for this business. The total value of Solvency II provisions of life lines of business is lower than IFRS provisions, but there are more significant differences between individual lines of business. For some lines of business the Solvency II provisions are higher, for others IFRS provisions. The presentation is also affected by the change in the mapping of homogeneous risk groups onto lines of business that came into force in 2020. IFRS provisions for life lines of business take into account the expected present value of future cash flows via the LAT test, but only if it exceeds the current mathematical provision established, which means that, at the time of conducting the LAT test, the present value of potential future life insurance losses is recognised on the liabilities side. By contrast, Solvency II best estimates for life business take into account both expected losses as well as expected profits of life business. Solvency II provisions for life insurance with a savings component, including an interest guarantee and/or profit participation feature, are higher than IFRS provisions because the risk-free interest rate term structure is lower than the interest guarantee. In contrast, Solvency II provisions for risk and unit-linked
life insurance are lower than IFRS provisions as the former takes into account the expected future gains based on mortality, morbidity and expenses.

The level of uncertainty associated with Solvency II provisions has been tested by observing the sensitivity of the provision to key parameters of the calculation. We conducted an analysis on the portfolios of the Group's EU-based companies, separately for best estimate premium and claims provisions for direct business and for best estimate provisions for accepted reinsurance and best estimate provisions for life insurance. The following tables sets out the tested scenarios and their impact on the level of tested provisions.

0.5% | 0.5% |

| Increase in expected mortality rates of 15% | 0.9% | 1.3% |
| Increase in expenses (other than commissions) of 10% and inflation rate of 1% |
1.4% | 1.9% |
| Increase in lapse rate of 50% | 1.8% | 2.3% |
It should be noted that the calculation based on USPs for reserving risk yields lower results for most non-life lines of business than when using the parameters of the Standard Formula, which leads us to conclude that the volatility of the expected outgo and income used in the calculation of best estimate provisions is not high.
Based on analyses, we estimate that the level of uncertainty in the calculation of provisions is low.

Below we provide notes to the valuation of individual components of other liabilities.
Other provisions comprise the net present value of employee benefits, including severance pay upon retirement and jubilee benefits. They are calculated in accordance with IAS 19 using the ratio of the period of service in the company.
The value of other provisions in the Solvency II balance sheet is the same as in the IFRS balance sheet.
Insurance and intermediaries payables comprise payables relating to insurance claims and commissions from own insurance business and payables relating to claims and commissions for accepted (inward) reinsurance and coinsurance business. In the IFRS balance sheet, these are recognised on the accrual basis.
From this item, the Group eliminates not-past-due commission
payables relating to accepted (inward) reinsurance business at the Solvency II balance sheet date. The Group takes this item into account as future cash flows when calculating best estimate premium provisions. Since the change in the premium provision in this part is disclosed as a reclassification, the exclusion of not-past-due payables is disclosed in the same manner in the Solvency II balance sheet.
Solvency II balance sheet valuation of insurance payables differs from the valuation in the IFRS balance sheet in the addition of the expected future commission and future payables for fire brigade charges from contracts that are no longer active as at the reporting date.
Reinsurance payables include premium payables relating to ceded reinsurance business of insurance companies and premium payables relating to retroceded reinsurance business of the reinsurer. In the IFRS balance sheet, these are recognised on the accrual basis by reference to (re)insurance accounts.
As at the balance sheet date, the Group eliminates the following not-past-due payables from the reinsurance payables item of the Solvency II balance sheet: not-past-due premium payables relating to ceded business of insurance companies and not-past-due premium payables relating to retroceded business of the reinsurance company. The Group takes these items into account as future cash flows when calculating future cash flows for the reinsurers' share of the best estimate premium provision. Since the change in the premium provision in this part is disclosed as a reclassification, the exclusion of not-past-due payables is disclosed in the same manner in the Solvency II balance sheet.
The Solvency II balance sheet valuation does not differ from the IFRS balance sheet valuation.
Other trade payables comprise short-term payables to employees for accrued salaries and reimbursement of expenses, tax liabilities, payables to suppliers for operating expenses, and other payables. In the IFRS balance sheet, these are recognised on the accrual basis based on authentic documents.
The Solvency II balance sheet valuation does not differ from the IFRS balance sheet valuation.
Subordinated liabilities include the bond issued by the parent company. Liabilities arising from the issuance of the subordinated bond are stated at amortised cost in the IFRS balance sheet. The value of the subordinated bond recognised upon issuance is the face value, less expenses directly

attributable to the bond issue. Amortised cost is calculated using the first call date when the debt is first redeemable.
The bond was admitted to trading on the regulated market of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange. For the purpose of the Solvency II balance sheet, liabilities arising from the subordinated bond issue are valued at fair value based on prices quoted by Bloomberg.
Other liabilities largely comprise accrued costs (expenses), deferred insurance premiums earned, deferred reinsurance and co-insurance commissions and long-term liabilities from leases that qualify for valuation under IFRS 16.
In this Solvency II balance sheet item, the Group's deferred commissions relating to accepted co-insurance and reinsurance, and deferred technical income arising from policies of the non-life insurance segment are valued at nil. The valuation of other liabilities included in this item in the Solvency II balance sheet does not differ from the IFRS valuation.

The Group uses alternative valuation methods for obtaining the fair value of financial investments for which the Group has no available public market price. Alternative methods represent the valuation at IFRS balance sheet values, the valuation of subsidiaries and associates that are not consolidated under Solvency II and the valuation of real property obtained from independent external property appraisers.
In 2020, the Group held the following financial investments in its portfolio, which were stated at IFRS balance sheet values:
Subsidiaries and associates that are not consolidated under Solvency II include EU-based pension companies and asset management companies (Sava Pokojninska and Sava Infond), non-EU based Group pension companies (Sava Penzisko Društvo) and associates (ZTSR and G2I). The Group recognises EU-based pension companies and asset management companies in the Solvency II balance sheet at the proportionate amount of available capital calculated under sectoral regulations applicable in Slovenia to pension companies and asset management companies. Non-EU based Group pension companies and interests in associates are valued in the Solvency II balance sheet using the IFRS equity method in compliance with article 13(5) of the Delegated Regulation. The value of goodwill and other intangible assets that would be valued at nil under the asset valuation methodology is deducted from the obtained value of the companies.
The Group periodically (generally every three years) obtains fair value valuations of its properties for own use from independent external property appraisers and of its investment properties. The fair value appraisals thus obtained are most representative of the amount for which the appraised properties could be exchanged between knowledgeable parties in arm's length transactions.

Capital management at the Group level is defined in the capital management policy of the Sava Insurance Group and Sava Re d.d., which sets out the objectives and key activities associated with capital management. Capital management is inseparable from the risk strategy, which defines the risk appetite.
The Group's capital management objectives are:
The Group manages its capital to ensure that each Group company has available, on an ongoing basis, sufficient funds to meet its obligations and regulatory capital requirements. The composition of own funds held to ensure capital adequacy must comply with regulatory requirements and ensure an optimal balance between debt and equity capital. The amount of own funds of each Group company and the Group must be sufficient, at all times, to meet the statutory solvency capital requirement, as well as to satisfy the requirements of its target credit rating and other objectives of any Group member or the Group.
An important input element of capital management and business planning is the Group's risk strategy, including the risk appetite set therein. The Group's risk strategy defines levels of capital adequacy as listed in section E.2. Solvency capital requirement and minimum capital requirement. The level of capital adequacy or target capital adequacy for each Group company is determined based on the Group's capital adequacy.
As provided by the risk strategy, all Group subsidiaries must have, on an ongoing basis, a sufficient amount of capital available to meet solvency requirements in line with local law. In addition, Group subsidiaries subject to the Solvency II capital regime must have enough capital to absorb small to medium fluctuations in own funds and the solvency capital requirement due to the Standard Formula methodology and potential small and medium stresses and scenarios materialising.
Every year, Group companies and the Group prepare a financial plan for the next three-year period. The financial plan of the Group and each company must be in line with the risk strategy, meaning that they must ensure the Group's and each company's capital adequacy at an acceptable level.
The Group risk strategy in conjunction with capital adequacy is defined so as to meet regulatory requirements and the requirements of rating agencies, and to ensure that the Group has sufficient excess capital to cover any potential additional capital needs of subsidiaries in the event of a major stress scenario materialising in any of them. To this end, an excess of eligible own funds is determined over the statutory requirement. adjustments to the financial plan are made, if necessary. The planned use of capital duly includes capital consumption items, such as regular dividends, own shares and projects that require additional capital. When allocating capital to business segments, it must be ensured that an adequate return on equity is achieved. For the
The first phase of the annual verification of the potential for capital optimisation and additional allocation of capital includes a review of the results of the most recent calculation of the amount and structure of eligible own funds, and the SCR. A financial plan for the following three-year period and a capital management plan are prepared based on this, including measures required to achieve the target capital allocation.
Eligible own funds, the SCR and consequently the solvency ratio of the Company or the Group are calculated based on three-year projections of financial parameters. Calculations verify the alignment with the risk appetite, whereupon
capital allocated to cover risks, we seek to maximise the ratio of return generated by a particular operating segment tying up capital to the capital allocated to the segment (efficient return-to-risk ratio).

32 The Group did not pay any dividends in 2020 because of the regulator's call for temporary suspension of dividend payouts and to assess potential risks.
As at 31 December 2020, the Group reported an excess of assets over liabilities of EUR 537.3 million (31 December 2019: EUR 495.5 million).
The following is then deducted from basic own funds, i.e. the excess of the Group's assets over its liabilities:
Added to the excess of assets over liabilities are subordinated liabilities as these are part of the Group's basic own funds. As at 31 December 2020, the Group's Solvency II subordinated bonds were valued at EUR 75.7 million.
For the purpose of determining basic own funds, the Group's basic own funds are reduced by the total value of participations in other financial and credit institutions (excluding insurers) exceeding 10% of the Group's own-fund items (paid-up share capital plus capital reserves). Similarly, for the purpose of determining basic own funds, basic own

funds are reduced by the part of the value of all participations in financial and credit institutions that exceeds 10% of the Group's own-fund items (other than those alone exceeding 10% and thus being excluded). As at 31 December 2020, the Group did not have any such exclusions from own funds, the same as at 31 December 2019.
Basic own funds after deductions are obtained in this way. The Group's available own funds are basic own funds after deductions plus the own funds of other financial entities (Sava Pokojninska and Sava Infond), which under ZZavar-1 are not subject to capital requirements under Solvency II.
As at 31 December 2020, the Group had no adjustments for other items in accordance with ZZavar-1, the same as at 31 December 2019.
Ancillary own funds are items that do not constitute basic own funds and that the Company or Group may call up to absorb its losses. They include unpaid share capital or uncalled initial funds, letters of credit and guarantees, and any other legal commitments undertaken by the Group. As at 31 December 2020, the Group held no ancillary own funds, the same as at 31 December 2019.
The following table shows the composition of the Group's own funds.

Total basic own funds after deductions increased by EUR 43.7 million in 2020, which is chiefly the result of Vita's inclusion in the Group, the increase in the value of basic own funds of Zavarovalnica Sava and the parent's suspension of dividend payouts for 2019.

As can be seen from the table, the majority of differences in figures as at 31 December 2020 originate from differences in the valuation of Solvency II technical provisions in (re) insurance undertakings in and outside the European Union, similar to 31 December 2019. The methodology used is detailed in section D.2 Technical provisions.
The Group's minimum capital requirement (MCR) and the Group's SCR are covered by eligible own funds. These own funds must be of an adequate quality. To this end, the Solvency II legislation classifies own funds into three capital tiers based on both permanence and loss absorbency.
Tier 1 funds include own funds that mostly meet the conditions laid down in article 196(1)(1) and 196(1)(2) of ZZavar-1; such items are available to absorb losses at all times (permanent availability) and, in the event of the Group's winding-up, they become available to the holder only after all of the Group's other obligations are met. Considered are features, such as permanence, confirmed absence of redemption incentives and encumbrances.
33 IFRS equity is adjusted for the elimination of the companies Sava Pokojninska, Save Penzisko Društvo and Sava Infond.
The Group includes the following into its tier 1 own funds:
The Group's tier 1 eligible own funds do not include eligible own fund items that are dated or with the subordination feature or subject to early redemption.
Tier 2 funds include own fund items that mostly exhibit the features referred to in article 196(1)(2) of ZZavar-1; in the event of the Group's winding-up, such items become available to the holder only after all of the Group's other obligations are met or paid. Considered are features, such as permanence, confirmed absence of redemption incentives and encumbrances. The Group classifies its subordinated liabilities, subordinated debt with a duration of 20 years and a contractual opportunity to redeem after 10 years, as tier 2 eligible own funds. Subordinated liabilities have the feature of subordination.

Tier 3 funds are own fund items classified as neither tier 1 nor tier 2. They include letters of credit and guarantees that are held in trust for the benefit of insurance creditors by an independent trustee and are provided to the Group by credit institutions. Tier 3 also includes own funds from net deferred tax assets. The Group holds no tier 3 own funds.
The following table includes statutory restrictions as to how the Group's SCR and MCR are to be met.

| Group MCR coverage | min. 80% | max. 20% | not eligible |
Eligible own funds designated to meet the Group SCR are obtained from available own funds by additionally factoring in statutory restrictions. Eligible own funds to meet the Group MCR are obtained from basic own funds after making deductions subject to statutory restrictions.
The following two tables show the amounts of the Group's eligible own funds designated to meet the Group SCR and the Group MCR as at 31 December 2020 and compared to figures as at 31 December 2019. They are classified into the statutory tiers described above.

As at 31 December 2020, the major part of the Group's eligible own funds to cover its SCR and MCR is classified as tier 1 funds and included no ancillary own funds.34 The Group classifies its subordinated liabilities, the subordinated debt issued by Sava Re in 2019, as tier 2 funds. Due to regulatory restrictions, as far as eligible own funds to meet the Group's MCR are concerned, the Group is only permitted to count subordinated liabilities, which include subordinate debt, up to 20% of the Group's MCR.

regulatory transitional arrangements among the disclosed eligible own funds of the Group.
As provided for by article 330(1) of the Delegated Regulation, the parent company has assessed the availability of eligible own funds of associated undertakings at the Group level. No legal or regulatory requirements were found to apply to own fund items such as would restrict the ability of those items to absorb all types of losses Group-wide or restrict the transferability of assets to other Group companies, nor has a time limit been established for the availability of own funds to meet the Group SCR. The Group's subsidiaries and associates held no own fund items referred to in article 330(3) of the Delegated Regulation.
The only item of the Group's non-available own funds is thus minority interests in subsidiaries (insurance undertakings) exceeding the subsidiary's contribution to the SCR calculated based on consolidated data of insurance undertakings in the Group, in the amount of EUR 203 thousand as at 31 December 2020 (31 December 2019: EUR 154 thousand).







The Group calculates its SCR and MCR in accordance with the Solvency II Standard Formula. Solvency is calculated using the accounting consolidation method (first method in accordance with article 377 of ZZavar-1).
The SCR, as calculated based on consolidated figures of insurance undertakings in the Group (hereinafter: consolidated Group SCR), is calculated as the basic solvency capital requirement (BSCR) plus adjustments for the lossabsorbing capacity of technical provisions and deferred taxes plus the capital requirement for operational risk. In accordance with article 336 of the Delegated Regulation, the Group solvency capital requirement is calculated as the sum of the consolidated Group SCR plus the capital requirement for other financial sectors, calculated in accordance with relevant sectoral regulations and capital requirement for residual undertakings of the Group.
The solvency ratio is the ratio of Group eligible own funds to Group SCR.
Compared to the calculation as at 31 December 2019, the calculation as at 31 December 2020 takes into account the amendment to Delegated Regulation 2015/35, which sets out the method of calculating capital adequacy using the Standard Formula, specifically the amendments set out in Delegated Regulation 2019/981 applicable as from 1 January 2020. New parameters have been applied in the calculation of the level of premium and reserve risk for non-life and NSLT health business. The impact of this change on SCR does not exceed the Group's materiality threshold. Nor do other
methodological changes exceed the Group's materiality threshold.
The following table shows individual risk modules along with other Group SCR components, Group eligible own funds and the Group solvency ratio.

Similar to 31 December 2019, as at 31 December 2020, the largest proportion of the Group SCR arose from risks associated with non-life business, which increased mainly because of portfolio growth and the increase in best estimate provisions compared to 31 December 2019. The Group's second-largest risk is market risk, which significantly increased in 2020 as the result of Vita's inclusion in the Group. Other risks, which represent a minor share of the Group SCR, also increased as at 31 December 2020 compared to 31 December 2019, chiefly because of Vita's inclusion in the Group, especially life underwriting risk, health underwriting risk and operational risk. The capital requirement for residual undertakings increased by EUR 3.7 million as at 31 December 2020 compared to 31 December 2019, as the result of the recapitalisation of the company ZTSR. For details regarding
35
changes in individual risk modules, see section C Risk profile.
The Group does not use the simplifications referred to in articles 88–112 of the Delegated Regulation, nor does it use undertaking-specific parameters in the calculation of the Group SCR.
As at 31 December 2020, the Group adjusted the SCR for deferred taxes in the amount of EUR 17.3 million (31 December 2019: EUR 18.3 million). The adjustment for the loss-absorbing capacity of deferred taxes is calculated in accordance with the Delegated Regulation and article 23 of the "Decision on the terms and method of covering losses by reducing technical provisions and deferred taxes". At the individual company and Group levels, adjustments have been made in the amount of
the maximum adjustment for loss absorbency of deferred taxes that may be taken into account without requiring any evidence, i.e. up to the amount of net liabilities for deferred taxes in the Solvency II balance sheet.
The Group makes its catastrophe risk module calculation using certain necessary assumptions about the scenarios on the basis of which calculations are made of the impact of the reinsurance programme.

Solvency capital requirement by risk module as at 31 December 2020
EUR million

As illustrated by the graph, Group eligible own funds markedly exceed the Group SCR, as reflected in the Group's high solvency ratio of 198% as at 31 December 2020 (31 December 2019: 220%).
A major criterion for determining the risk appetite in the Sava Insurance Group's risk strategy is the solvency ratio. In accordance with its capital management policy, the Group is striving – in the long term – to attain its target capital adequacy as set out in its risk strategy. In addition, to maintain its desired credit rating in line with its risk strategy, it maintains a level of capital not lower than the one required for an "A"-range credit rating. It must also have available a sufficient level of eligible own funds to meet potential capital requirements of its subsidiaries if a major scenario were to materialise in any of them. To this end, an excess of eligible own funds is determined over the statutory requirement.
As from 2020 and in line with the risk strategy for 2020– 2022, the internal criteria for the level of the solvency ratio were raised, as illustrated in the following chart. Thus, the acceptable solvency ratio limit is 150%, and the optimum level of capitalisation is in the 218–220% range. Based on this, as at 31 December 2020, the Group is also well capitalised by internal criteria.
In December 2020, the financial projections and the calculation of the Group eligible own funds, the Group SCR and the Group solvency ratio for 2020–2023 were also confirmed. For the period 2020–2023, the Group's solvency ratio is planned at a level in line with the risk strategy.

The capital requirement structure of the standard formula also includes the adjustment for the loss absorbing capacity of technical provisions and deferred taxes. The adjustment reflects the potential compensation of unexpected losses by reducing technical provisions or deferred taxes or a combination of both.
