Integrated Navigation

Two levels are distinguished in the risk management process:

I - GROUP LEVEL – monitoring the limits and risks specific to the Group

Risk management at this level is supposed to ensure that the PZU Group attains its business objectives in a safe manner appropriate to fit the scale of the risk incurred. The PZU Group provides its subsidiaries with support in the implementation of a risk management system.

Risk management on the Group level includes the introduction of compatible mechanisms, standards and organization of an efficient internal control system (with particular emphasis on the compliance function), the risk management system (especially in the reinsurance area) and the security management system in the PZU Group. It also involves their ongoing monitoring. The PZU Group’s designated personnel cooperates with the Management Boards of entities and managers of such areas as finance, risk, actuarial services, reinsurance, investments and compliance on the basis of mutual cooperation agreements.

In connection with the PZU Group obtaining the status of a financial conglomerate, a risk concentration management system has been implemented. Thanks to that, individual entities execute their business objectives, maintaining their own financial stability and the financial stability of the entire PZU Financial Conglomerate. The system monitors the risk concentration measures and their limits and threshold values. Risk measurement permits identification of the sources of concentration in individual risks at the level of both the PZU Financial Conglomerate and individual regulated entities. It also makes it possible to assess the impact of the concentrations on financial stability. 

II - ENTITY LEVEL – monitoring of limits and risks specific to the entity

Risk management at this level is supposed to ensure that individual PZU Group entities attains their business objectives in a safe manner appropriate to fit the scale of the risk incurred. This is supported by:

  • monitoring of the limits and unique risk categories existing in the given entity,
  • implementation of effective mechanisms and standards,
  • organization of an efficient internal control system (with particular emphasis on the compliance function), the risk management system (especially in the reinsurance area) and the security management system in the PZU Group.

The risk management process consists of the following stages:
