Ακολουθεί η επιστολή που εστάλη στο ΔΝΤ, κατόπιν της τελευταίας επικοινωνίας μαζί τους, όπου γίνεται μια σύντομη περιγραφή του ιστορικού της υπόθεσης και αναφέρονται επιγραμματικά οι προτάσεις επίλυσης του προβλήματος "Ασπίς Πρόνοια", οι οποίες κινούνται γύρω από την χρηματοδότηση του Εγγυητικού Κεφαλαίου, ώστε να αποζημιωθούν γρηγορότερα οι ασφαλισμένοι.

“Association Affected

Persons by Aspis Pronoia”

“Suggestions for resolving the insurance firms “Aspis Pronoia” – “Commercial Value” case”

Three years ago, the authorisations of the insurance firms “Aspis Pronia S.A.” and “Commercial Value S.A.” were withdrawn by PISC decisions nos. 156/2/21.9.2009 and 176/2/25.2.2010 respectively (Government Gazette, Sociétés Anonymes & Limited Liability Companies Issue, 11292/21.9.2009 and 1468/26.2.2010). 

Over one million holders of policies with “Aspis Pronia S.A.” and “Commercial Value S.A.” have lost their savings as well as their insurance benefits, despite the fact that those insurance firms were receiving solvency certificates since 2002 from government regulators, which, at best, exercised poor supervision, if they weren't accomplices in this criminal activity.

The Greek Government is obliged to cover the monetary obligations which are estimated to exceed 650 million euros representing the estimated 250,000 policyholders' codes of Aspis Pronoia and Commercial Value.

The “Association Affected Persons by Aspis Pronoia” (Σύλλογος Ζημιωθέντων από Ασπίς Πρόνοια) was created in order to promote an immediate and sustainable solution, taking into consideration the narrow limits of fiscal discipline that the Greek State needs to undertake.

Thousands of policyholders have already taken legal action against the Greek State in order to claim their compensations.

Our Union has submitted key recommendations to the Ministry of Finance authorities, and especially to the Minister of Finance Mr Stournaras, in order to participate in the process of reforming the already voted laws concerning the case of Aspis Pronoia (3867/2010 and 4002 αρ. 17), which, until nowadays, they are stagnated and not implemented.

The Law 3867/2010 has established the Guarantee Life Fund, which accumulates contributions via deductions from life insurance policies.
According to the same law, the Guarantee Life Fund should compensate the 70% of the liabilities of insurance companies to policyholders.
Due to the fact that the Guarantee Life Fund has started to accumulate contributions from January 2011, the amount gathered is not yet able to compensate policyholders. That is the reason why these policyholders are taking legal action with massive lawsuits against the Greek State.

The best solution for this problem lies in finding a way of loaning the Guarantee Life Fund which is, of course, a trustworthy borrower.
Otherwise, the majority of policyholders will turn against the Greek State and the cost will be paid by the state budget.

We look forward to your prompt assistance in this matter. This prolonged suspense has created enormous problems of survival for thousands of policyholders. We would appreciate a meeting with you in order to present our proposals which we strongly believe can be implemented without cost for the Greek State.
