Facultative Reinsurance

Facultative Reinsurance

Installed Capacity Per Risk

Facultative reinsurance is the transfer of all or part of a risk to the reinsurer specific to that risk, outside of contractual agreements. It comes into play when there is a single high-priced facility, an unusual activity, or a risk for which the local market has no appetite.

We prepare the technical file of the risk, present it to the international reinsurance markets and compare the quotes on the basis of price, coverage and reinsurer reliability. After placement, we also handle the slip, certificate and damage notification flow.

  • Risk-based (facultative) capacity provision
  • Direct negotiation with international reinsurers

The decisive factor in facultative placement is not the price, but the correct explanation of the risk.

Key Risks

What We Watch in This Area

  • Terms Incompatibility

    If the main policy and the reinsurance condition do not coincide, the damage remains unreimbursed on the reinsurance side.

  • Capacity Contraction

    The market contracts periodically; Leaving early before renewal is decisive.

  • Missing Risk Information

    A poorly explained risk may increase the quotation or make placement impossible altogether.

How is it determined?

Data Shaping Capacity Search

  • Technical file of the facility: structure class, protection systems, field report
  • Risk appetite of the business line in the international market
  • General and special conditions of the main policy
  • Reinsurer's rating and past payment performance

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Treaty reinsurance covers an entire portfolio with predetermined rules. Facultative reinsurance is established separately for a single risk, with conditions specific to that risk; The reinsurer evaluates the risk individually and is free to accept or reject it.

  • It depends on the complexity of the risk and the completeness of the file. While a few working days will be sufficient for a file with complete technical information, the process may take several weeks for special risks.

  • The claim often comes from the insurance company; He must transfer the part that exceeds his capacity. We carry out the process by taking into account the interests of the insured, and we check that the reinsurance conditions coincide with the main policy.

  • Yes. For high-cost risks, capacity is often shared among several reinsurers; The share and conditions of each are shown separately in the slip. We ensure the coordination between them in case of damage.
