REINSURING SMALL
REGIONAL COMPANIES
November 12, 2007
The Ceding Company's Perspective
Larry Seymour, FCAS
SO YOU WANT TO BUY
SOME REINSURANCE…
How, What, Where, When, Why…
Multiline, CAT’s, Terrorism, Clash,
Baskets, Reinstatements…
Uggghhhh!
FINDING A BROKER OR
OTHER REINSURANCE
INTERMEDIARY
A broker …
Has been there, done that
Knows the current market conditions
Know your book and which reinsurers like it
Knows the contract wording
BROKER CLIENT
DISCUSSIONS
Why buy reinsurance?
What is your risk tolerance?
Is capacity an issue?
What limit, what retention?
Probability of ruin?
Structure: Quota Share,Excess?
Combined lines treaty?
Carve out LOB's (WC, umbrella, etc)?
TRANSPARENCY
Consider the potential bias of a product
based on "commissions"
Am I paying too
much or buying too
much?
Go broker shopping every X years
The broker universe is smaller than you
think
Be fair and never burn a bridge
DATA IS KING
There is no such thing as too much data
There is no such thing as too much data
There is no such thing as too much data
DATA DATA DATA
Provide all data requested by
Broker
Premiums, losses, rates
changes, LCM's
Loss ratios, frequency, severity
Large losses, CAT’s
Proforma's, terrorism take up
rates
Loss development triangles
THE DATA MUST HAVE’S…
WC -->
Class code, hazard group, zip code, location
Property -->
Exposures by location address
Liability -->
Limits profiles
Umbrella -->
Excess, monoline, auto exposed
Auto -->
Type of use, weight, limits
OTHER ITEMS TO SHARE
WITH YOUR BROKER…
Exposure rate or experience rate?
The "but for" exclusions, runoff business
New endeavors, new lines, new states,
new agents
1 in 100; 1 in 250; 1 in 500?
LAKE WOBEGON SYNDROME
(GARRISON KEILLOR)
The place where every kid is above
average
Every insurance company is also above
average
Convince your broker why you are
above, above average
DEAL WITH THE FACTS
But don’t be afraid to be an optimist
Above the hurricane I'm sure the sun is shining
UNDERWRITING AUDITS
Develop relationships with reinsurers
Confirm your u/w standards
Confirm consistency
Resolve unanswered questions
Eye to eye contact with the price setter
LET THE NEGOTIATIONS
BEGIN…
Explore various retentions, layers,
exclusions, etc.
Contract wording has value as well
ROL (Rate On Line)
A simple way to compare quotes
11/6/2015
21
WHICH QUOTE IS BETTER?
Ex: $100M DWP:
5.0M xs 1.0M @ 6% DWP
5.0M xs 1.5M @ 5% DWP
Should you pay an extra $1.0M to drop
down to a $1.0M attachment?
Do you expect 2 losses > $1.5M per
year?
WHAT ABOUT
REINSTATEMENTS?
is always better, right?
Just like lunch, there is no such thing as
a free reinstatement
Get quotes with and without to determine
the value
WHAT ABOUT
CONTRACT LANGAUGE?
Reinsurers exclude areas they have seen
problems
Nuclear, Pollution, Pharmaceuticals, War
Special acceptances
Incidental exposures
Time per occurrence: 72 hours,144 hours?
Terrorism: NBC, Federal backstop
Commutation agreements
A TISKET, A TASKET
WHAT IS A BASKET?
Basket Retention
If a covered loss on a multi-line treaty spans over
Property AND Casualty then it will be subject to
only one retention.
Ex: Fire caused by employee with
customer losses
Find out the cost of this coverage and then
decide.
CARVE IT OUT?
Work Comp or Umbrella can be carved
out of a treaty and handled by a specialty
reinsurer
Occasionally the sum of two treaties can
be less than the whole
Contrary to diversification strategies,
but can work
FIRM ORDER PRICING
Tells the reinsurers the price to play or go home.
If 100% subscribed in a day then price too high.
If 10% subscribed in a week then price too low.
If 90% subscribed in a week, then just about perfect.
FINALLY…
Settle on price,
settle on wording
Sign some contracts
settle on terms,

Appeals of Regional Companies
REGIONAL COMPANIES IN PARTICULAR CAN ENLARGE
their capacity by buying reinsurance
Regional companies need their reinsurers
Loyal buying behaviour/partnership with reinsurers
Predictable casualty results (property could be different due to natural
catastrophes)
Mostly standard lines
Very conservative underwriting approach, few changes
You always deal with the same people
5
VARIOUS CHALLENGES WITH REGIONAL COMPANIES
Data quality often insufficient to do exposure or experience analysis
•
therefore Brokers are important to support company
Vulnerable to natural catastrophes, since focused on one region
•
therefore we need to participate in all program parts to be able to balance our
results
Challenges from:
6
•
Rating Agencies
•
Regulatory
•
Legal + capital issues
HANNOVER RE SPECIFIC CONCERNS / REQUESTS
In umbrella business we need a certain balance (liability vs. premium) to be
able to pay total losses
Lack of umbrella balance can be overcome by writing other parts of the
program
Essential information must be available otherwise our pricing models do not
work
We have to be very creative with regional companies
7
THE HANNOVER RE APPRECIATION FOR REGIONAL COMPANIES
long standing relationships going back to the 70's
8
We regard them to be our core group of clients
We value regional companies as reliable and stable partners and provide consistent pricing
through the cycles
We make every effort to visit existing regional clients regularly even if located in remote areas
We provide special services to regional cedants upon request:
•
Underwriting- and claims audits
•
Peer analysis
•
Have a great understanding of their needs
•
Provide long term commitments
We are member of the NAMIC
We generally write larger lines on regional companies than on national companies
We like regional exposures to balance/ diversify our book of business
We have lower data standards for smaller regional companies than for large national companies
