A specialist analytical research company focussed on providing independent and confidential opinions on reinsurers' financial strength, suitability and likely longevity.
Independent and Cost Effective
We are independent of brokers, insurers and the rating agencies. Apart from the cost benefits of using our service to achieve a ‘best practice’ all year round approach, our longstanding clients have found that our independent, wide-ranging and specialist perspective provides broader insights into market sentiment and intelligence across their reinsurance panels than can be consistently achieved in-house. Our client base ranges from large highly-rated cedants to much smaller groups, which testifies to the value we add for any size or type of reinsurance buyer.
Confidential, Interactive and Connected
The independence of our business model and the confidential nature of our relationships with clients allows full and frank discussion of counterparties with our clients, dealing with concerns as they arise. This interaction with our clients, who are actively placing reinsurance in the market and collecting on their claims, enhances our own insights adding extra value to our analysis.
Analytical Expertise
Drawing on our decades of experience in insurance credit analysis, gained within the reinsurance market and at rating agencies, and our comprehensive market intelligence and insights, we grade reinsurers according to an A to D scale, supplemented with concise commentaries. Over the years we have helped our clients maximise their pick of the most creditworthy counterparties, minimise exposure to many that have either gone into run-off, transferred their portfolios to the run-off market, or withdrawn from reinsurance as a segment, and also some that have proven reluctant to pay claims.
