New Version of the Solvency II Tripartite Template (TPT V8.0)

Tue, 25 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0200

On July 7, 2026, FinDatEx published the draft of the Solvency II Tripartite Template (TPT) V8.0 for public consultation. The new version implements changes from the Solvency II 2020 Review and addresses the European Commission’s current efforts to simplify regulatory requirements. The goal is to reduce the operational burden on market participants while providing the information necessary for Solvency II reporting and risk management.

For insurance companies, asset managers, and data providers, TPT V8.0 brings both new requirements and simplifications. In particular, the stricter requirements for issuer identification and the adjustments to the revised Solvency II regime should be reviewed at an early stage to assess their impact on existing data and reporting processes.

TPT V8.0 at a Glance

Draft published: July 7, 2026
Consultation deadline: September 4, 2026
Final validation scheduled: Late September 2026
Voluntary implementation recommended: from early January 2027
Expected mandatory implementation: in Q1 2027

Key changes:
- two new data points
- stricter requirements for LEI data
- removal of 20 data points to simplify the template

New Version 8.0 of the TPT

The draft of TPT V8.0 includes both content enhancements and extensive simplifications. The focus is on aligning with the revised Solvency II regime and reducing the volume of data by eliminating 20 data points that were no longer necessary.

Two New Data Points for the Revised Solvency II Regime

To support the new Solvency II regime, which takes effect in Q1 2027, two new data points have been added to the TPT. These are intended to ensure that insurance companies continue to receive all the information necessary for calculating the Solvency Capital Requirement (SCR) using the standard formula and preparing the Quantitative Reporting Templates (QRTs).

Stricter Requirements for Issuer Identification

A significant change affects the identification of issuers. The requirements for the Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) have been significantly tightened, particularly for listed securities and issuers in the financial sector. This affects fields 47, 48, 50, and 51 of the TPT. This change is intended to enable more precise monitoring of concentration risks, which are in regulatory focus.

For market participants, this means that the quality and completeness of master data will take on even greater importance in the future. Conducting appropriate reviews of data provision and existing processes can help reduce the need for adjustments later.

Removal of 20 Data Points

To simplify regulatory requirements, 20 data points have been removed from the template. Among others, this affects fields related to exposures in a “third quotation currency” (fields 29 and 31), information on the reference interest rate for variable-rate instruments (fields 35 and 36), collateral (field 106), aggregated fund information such as average duration (field 124) and accrued interest (fields 125 and 126), as well as information on convertibles (fields 127 and 128). The former NACE V2.0 field (54) has also been removed, as it has been replaced by field 148 (NACE Rev. 2.1), which was already introduced in V7.0. The complete overview is included in the “Deleted dp” worksheet of TPT V8.0. According to the current state of discussion, the relevant columns are to be completely removed from the standard; meaning there are no plans to continue including the columns without content.

Reducing the data volume can help simplify data provision, validation, and reporting processes in the long term. At the same time, existing interfaces and production pipelines should be reviewed in a timely manner to identify any potential need for adjustments.

Next steps

The public consultation runs through September 4, 2026. Comments may be submitted via email to slv@findatex.eu. The final validation of TPT V8.0 is scheduled for late September 2026. FinDatEx recommends voluntary implementation from early January 2027. Once mandatory implementation takes effect in the first quarter of 2027, only version 8.0 should be used.
