A practical approach to end-to-end Solvency II reporting in Databricks
Summary
Solvency II reporting connects data, actuarial reserving, capital calculation, quantitative reporting templates (QRTs), the ORSA, approvals, and disclosure, but fragmented systems make readiness and cross-process questions difficult to manage. The described Databricks implementation provides a governed workflow and control tower around existing actuarial and capital suites, automating ingestion checks, data-quality review, reconciliation, orchestration, reporting, and audit trails. It uses MLflow-managed reserving models alongside engines such as Prophet, RAFM, and Igloo, while narrow-scope AI agents can investigate QRT mismatches, suggest remediation, route questions, and support human review. An LLM can draft an ORSA from current numbers, while scenario analysis assesses doubling a cyber book over 12 months; reviewers retain decision authority. The workflow is presented as easier to monitor and investigate.
Context
Solvency II reporting is distributed across systems, teams, data sources, and locations. This fragmentation makes it difficult to maintain one governed view of reporting readiness, resolve late feeds and data-quality failures, reconcile QRTs, manage approval blockers, and answer scenario questions that span data, models, capital calculations, and reporting outputs.
Approach / What changed
Databricks acts as the governed data, orchestration, and reporting layer around existing actuarial and capital modeling suites. The workflow combines automated ingestion and quality checks, a control tower, QRT reconciliation, model orchestration, approvals, audit trails, ORSA drafting, scenario analysis, and narrow-scope AI assistance, while leaving final decisions with actuarial, regulatory, and business reviewers.
Takeaways
Databricks is positioned as an orchestration and governance layer around existing suites such as Prophet, RAFM, and Igloo, rather than as a replacement for them.
The workflow supports freshness, completeness, ownership, customizable data-quality rules, row disposition decisions, and reconciliation checks between QRTs.
AI agents can investigate mismatches, suggest remediation, draft ORSA content, route questions, and provide alternative review perspectives, but reviewers retain decision and approval authority.
