(64)The protection of the interests of insured persons is a general objective of the prudential framework that should be pursued by supervisory authorities at every stage of the supervisory review process, including in cases of breaches or likely breaches of requirements by insurance or reinsurance undertakings that could give rise to the withdrawal of authorisation. That objective should be pursued before and after the withdrawal of authorisation, and consideration should be given to any legal implications for insured persons that could result from that withdrawal.
