Addition offers business process outsourcing for FTK
The Financial Assessment Scheme (in Dutch: Financieel Toetsingskader/FTK) is the supervisory regime that applies as from 1 January 2007 to the financial position and financial policy of pension funds and insurance companies. Addition Knowledge House (www.addition.nu) offers business process outsourcing for FTK processes using DEX Regulatory Suite.
Pension funds have obligations ranging from a short to a very long duration. The FTK must guarantee that the commitments made on the basis of the pension plan to the participants can be honored. The FTK must therefore ensure that pension funds do not take more risk than they can bear and don't pass on the negative consequences of too much risk to future generations.

DEX Regulatory Suite for FTK
In order to support the FTK process DEX Data Explorers offers DEX Regulatory Suite for FTK. DEX RS generates regulatory reports using the DNB specifications.
DNB has published a datapointmodel containing all definitions of the FTK reports. A datapointmodel is a database which contains all necessary information to generate the reports. DEX RS uses the information in the datapointmodel to generate the reports, validate the outcomes against the DNB validation rules and generate the XBRL interfaces. Since the reports are generated according to the DNB standards the reports are always compliant and conform the latest standards.
Below an example of an FTK report generated by DEX RS is shown.
DEX Data Explorers maintains the definitions of the reports according to the regulator standards. When updates to the standards are submitted, you as a customer will receive an update on the set of reporting definitions.
