In essence, cushioning the effects of losses for a primary insurer as they transfer to us – the reinsurer – the part of the risk which exceeds their underwriting limit, and which would unduly affect the balance of their retained portfolios. Our value add to Primary Insurers Includes: • Reducing exposure to liquidity problems resulting from a major loss • More homogenous portfolios as risks with high sums insured can be reinsured • Underwriting capacity is strengthened as the reinsured assumes a share of the risks • Increased equity capital as reinsurance frees this risk bound capital REINSURANCE ADVISOR OF THE YEAR Continental Reinsurance Plc.
