Taiwanese insurers are facing difficult questions about the damage of recent swings in the local currency. Regulators may have a partial solution: letting firms change how they calculate the value of foreign currency assets.

Regulators will also streamline registration process for offshore share sales, according to the rules. (Reporting by Beijing and Shanghai newsroom; Editing by Aidan Lewis)
