Coface SA Publishes 2024 Solvency and Financial Condition Report

Coface SA has released its comprehensive Solvency and Financial Condition Report (SFCR) for the financial year 2024, reflecting its commitment to transparency and regulatory compliance under Solvency II requirements.

Overview of the SFCR Publication

The report, approved by the Board of Directors, encompasses both the Group and Compagnie française d’assurance pour le commerce extérieur (the 'Compagnie'). This annual report provides stakeholders with vital insights into the financial health and solvency status of the organization.

Key Highlights from the Report

Several significant points have emerged from the SFCR:
