Amendments Processing for (Re)insurance Undertakings
The Central Bank of Ireland plays a role in assessing any proposed amendments to an undertaking's approved business model, and in processing changes to master data held on our systems. This section highlights the changes that may be required in the normal course of business.
The Request Changes outlined below are processed exclusively via the Central Bank of Ireland Portal.
A small number of these Request Changes are straightforward and do not require any accompanying documentation (these changes are marked with an asterisk in the list below).
The other Request Changes are subject to supervisory scrutiny and require the submission of accompanying documents and/or additional information. If you are unclear about the process for a particular change, or the supporting documentation that should accompany your request, please discuss this with your regular supervisory contact.
