## What is EIOPA AI Statement?

Published in 2025, the EIOPA Statement clarifies how existing insurance law (Solvency II, IDD, GDPR) and the EU AI Act apply jointly to insurance AI use cases such as pricing, underwriting, claims handling, and fraud detection. It emphasises proportionality, fairness across protected classes, governance, transparency to policyholders, and the role of human oversight in significant decisions.

## How does EIOPA AI Statement apply to enterprise AI?

Insurance carriers and brokers in the EU need a written AI policy aligned with EIOPA's expectations. AI vendors selling into insurance should expect their controls to be benchmarked against the Statement.
