Reinsurance is the practice of different insurance companies purchasing multiple insurance policies to share the risk and reduce their loss in case of a calamity. By sharing the risk, insurance companies can provide end-to-end coverage to large enterprises, which is impossible for a single insurer to bear alone.

Automated reinsurance helps leading brands in the insurance industry simplify key processes while reducing operational costs and facilitating seamless audit management. In this blog, we will discuss the top benefits of automated reinsurance to fast-track business growth.

Improves Underwriting Opportunities

With their expansive knowledge across sectors, reinsurers can provide technical advice to large brands, allowing them to initiate new lines of coverage or to write off new risks as they broaden their scope of business and unwriting opportunities.

Provides Financial Growth

Reinsurance allows the cedent to manage their surplus funds efficiently and facilitates rapid financial growth as the premiums ceded to reinsurers does not add to the cedent’s unearned premium reserve, which reduces the cedent’s premium to surplus ratio, enhancing their ability to write more business.

Stabilization

Reinsurance helps smooth the cedent's overall operating results from year to year generated by economic, social and natural forces. It protects the cedent's capital and surplus needed for growth as well as a cedent’s customers, shareholders and to some extent its employees.

Provides Protection Against Catastrophes

Reinsurance protects the cedent against catastrophic losses which are caused due to natural calamities or unforeseen disasters, safeguarding the business interests from large losses.

Simplified Withdrawals

Reinsurance allows the cedent to build risk appetite for brands while simplifying withdrawals from different lines of business and geographies.
