WHAT DOES REINSURE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Reinsurance

Reinsurance is insurance that is purchased by an insurance company from one or more other insurance companies directly or through a broker as a means of risk management, sometimes in practice including tax mitigation and other reasons described below. The ceding company and the reinsurer enter into a reinsurance agreement which details the conditions upon which the reinsurer would pay a share of the claims incurred by the ceding company. The reinsurer is paid a "reinsurance premium" by the ceding company, which issues insurance policies to its own policyholders. The reinsurer may be either a specialist reinsurance company, which only undertakes reinsurance business, or another insurance company. For example, assume an insurer sells 1,000 policies, each with a $1 million policy limit. Theoretically, the insurer could lose $1 million on each policy – totaling up to $1 billion. It may be better to pass some risk to a reinsurer as this will reduce the ceding company's exposure to risk. There are two basic methods of reinsurance: ▪ Facultative Reinsurance, which is negotiated separately for each insurance policy that is reinsured.
