Put simply, reinsurance is best thought of as “insurance for insurance companies,” a way for a primary insurer to protect against unforeseen or extraordinary losses. It serves to limit liability on specific risks, to increase individual insurers’ capacity and to share liability when losses overwhelm the primary insurer’s resources. It also helps insurers stabilize their business in the face of the wide swings in profit and loss margins inherent in the insurance business.
However, the reinsurance industry is much more complex than one statement, professionals working within the industry are tending to specialise in one area and lose touch with the trends and challenges faced by this global business as a whole. Whether you are new to the industry or need to get back in touch with the dynamics of the industry as a whole, then this reinsurance training course is for you.
This training course is part of our Insurance & Reinsurance Contracts Training Courses collection which covers up to the minute issues and the latest legal developments.
The experienced faculty will demystify all aspects of the reinsurance industry that participants might be new to, unfamiliar with or have lost touch with.
Topics covered include:
This programme has been designed specifically for:
Plus, those who have recently joined the reinsurance industry and suppliers to the industry including software, recruitment and accountancy personnel.
