Reinsurance

Here are three lessons from the most recent renewal cycles that can guide cedents looking to get the best result from their reinsurance placements.

Why have reinsurers' facultative underwriters wait until an insurer has finished its process? Why not consult as experts across an ecosystem? 

Capacity-seekers and capacity-providers are starting to recognize the benefits of an organized digital marketplace with an efficient electronic infrastructure.

IFRS 17 might be a major factor in insurers’ decisions on buying reinsurance, so it's important to understand key issues and start preparing. 

Can the global reinsurance market morph into a new paradigm, allowing a more responsible and sustainable market to emerge?

So-called convergence capital from the insurance-linked securities (ILS) market has become increasingly strategic for reinsurers.

The message is not to lock the door and send everyone home, but the competitors of yesterday may not be the competitors of tomorrow.

That is looking like the wrong question. It's time to reframe the debate and consider the huge potential for gains by reinsurers.
