The “Nuts & Bolts” Of Treaty Reinsurance: Non-Proportional Treaty Reinsurance

Programme Highlights

Although many insurers in Asia still place their core reinsurance on a Proportional basis, there is a continuing global trend towards the use of Non-Proportional Reinsurance, whether on a Facultative or Treaty basis. Through practical exercises and lectures during this 3-day programme, participants will acquire detailed technical and practical knowledge of how the different forms of Non-Proportional Reinsurance can be structured and used in the reinsurance market, and most importantly, the thought processes behind such practices.
