FAQs
What is Casualty Insurance?
Casualty insurance primarily covers liability and losses resulting from accidents, injuries, or damage to other people or property. Unlike property insurance, which covers losses to the insured’s own property, casualty insurance focuses on the insured’s legal liability for harm caused to third parties. It includes various types of coverage such as: General Liability, Professional Indemnity, Errors and Omissions, Directors and Officers and Auto.
What is reinsurance?
Reinsurance is a financial arrangement where an insurance company (the ‘ceding company’ or ‘primary insurer’) transfers part of its risk portfolio to another insurance company (the ‘reinsurer’). This helps the primary insurer manage risk, stabilize finances, and increase capacity to underwrite more policies.
What makes casualty re/insurance long tail?
Casualty re/insurance is ‘long tail’ because claims often take a long time to be discovered, reported and settled due to their complexity, involving extensive investigation and legal proceedings. This requires insurers to maintain long-term reserves and manage uncertainties arising from evolving legal, economic, and social factors, necessitating careful risk management and pricing strategies.
What is the difference between facultative and treaty?
Facultative reinsurance is individually tailored and assessed for specific high-risk exposures, offering flexibility but being more labour-intensive, while treaty reinsurance covers a standardized portfolio of policies within one or multiple line(s) of business, covering all policies that fall within the agreed-upon criteria, simplifying the process and enhancing efficiency for high-volume, homogenous risks.
