The global financial crisis has forced the need for rapid identification of global systemically important financial institutions (G-SIFIs) and to take the necessary measures to reduce the risk of distress or failure. In these institutions are included the insurers. This paper describes of the methodology of identification of global systemically important insurers (G-SIIs) developed by the IAIS. The assessment methodology is based broadly on that used to identify globally systemically important banks (G-SIBs) but tailored to the insurance industry. The methodology IAIS to suggest that traditional insurance business does not generates or does not amplifies systemic risk. Accordingly, in determining whether an insurer is a  G-SIIs, more emphasis is placed on those insurers who participate in non-traditional and non-insurance activities, such as derivatives trading without hedging purposes.

Mając na uwadze kryteria klasyfikacji banków systemowo ważnych (tzw. SIFI), celem artykułu jest identyfikacja największych banków w skali europejskiej oraz wskazanie na charakter podejmowanego przez nie ryzyka o charakterze systemowym. Badanie zostało przeprowadzone na podstawie sprawozdań finansowych 36 największych banków komercyjnych w Europie. Analizie zostały poddane wskaźniki ryzyka o charakterze systemowym, tj. dźwignia finansowa, płynność, wskaźnik kapitałowy, jakości aktywów, oraz rentowność banków. Uzyskane wyniki pokazały, że na tle wartości średnich dla całej Europy wskaźniki ryzyka największych banków (tzw. SIFI) pozostają na zbliżonym poziomie.

The aim of this article is to identify systemically important banks on a European scale, according the criteria proposed by supervisory authorities. In this study, we discuss the analytical framework for identifying and benchmarking systemically important financial institutions. We selected a group of 36 largest banks in Europe and analyzed their risk indicators, i.e.: leverage, liquidity, capital ratio, asset quality and profitability, as a source of systemic risk. The aim of the study is to find out whether the size of an institution generates higher systemic risk. We find that risk indicators of excessive debt, liquidity, capital adequacy and effectiveness for the largest commercial banks in Europe do not differ from the average across Europe.
