The resurgence of reinsurance

Insurers and reinsurers have engaged in a mutually beneficial, if somewhat co-dependent, relationship for centuries. It’s not only a partnership, but also a dance. And while it takes two to tango, reinsurance plays a key role in the well-being of insurers and when managed skilfully provides critical risk management for the long term.

Beneficial and necessary as reinsurance is to the insurer, ceding reinsurance presents insurers an increasingly complex process to manage, away from their core business. Whether the cessions are proportional, nonproportional, inuring covers, treaty or facultative, actually ceding appropriately to each of these types of reinsurance is time consuming and fraught with potential error.

This whitepaper focuses on the resurgence of reinsurance and three important considerations when managing reinsurance, especially during a time of crisis and change.
