Hi,
I would like to ask why risk margin is a part of liability instead of own fund when it is said that "Risk margin is the compensation required by the insurer for the fact that they have to raise and hold the capital" ?
It is like in the liability side of the balance sheet, there are 2 things: things that the insurer owe and things that belongs to the insurer. As for me, by thinking that way, the risk margin should belong to the equity right ?
