Reinsurance is a form of insurance arrangement wherein insurance companies offload a portion of their risks to other insurers known as reinsurers. It involves a reinsurer agreeing to shoulder some of the financial liabilities associated with claims arising from an insurance policy issued by the primary insurer. In exchange for this service, the primary insurer pays a premium to the reinsurer, allowing the former to diversify its risk across multiple insurers. This, in turn, plays a crucial role in enhancing the financial resilience of the primary insurer and mitigating the potential impact of significant losses. Reinsurance policies may vary in terms and conditions depending on the specific risks being transferred, tailoring the arrangement to meet the particular requirements of the primary insurer. Primary insurers leverage reinsurance not only to secure additional capital but also to expand their operations or safeguard against unforeseen losses. The reinsurance market involves the participation of reinsurance brokerages, insurers, and reinsurance brokers. The benefits of reinsurance encompass improved financial stability, heightened flexibility, and increased underwriting capacity.
