Reinsurance Pricing and Structuring
Prime Re Academy is pleased to invite you to attend its workshop in Zurich, Switzerland in September 2018. Focus will be set on the following topic:
Reinsurance Pricing and Structuring
In the wake of the Solvency II implementation, reinsurance is acquiring increasing importance and it is therefore equally important for solvency practitioners as well as endeavoring reinsurance actuaries to master the fundamental risk transfer concepts and the respective actuarial techniques. This Prime Re Academy workshop teaches the participants the theoretical knowledge they need to price and structure reinsurance programs and it enables them to put this acquired know-how into practice on the spot.
In the course of the workshop we shall design increasingly complex reinsurance treaties and price them in Excel®. Please bring along your personal laptops. In particular, we will consider:
• Fundaments and purpose of reinsurance
• Proportional reinsurance and non-proportional reinsurance
• Experience and exposure rating
• Long tail lines of business
• Expenses and risk loadings
• Reinsurance optimization
It is the ideal jumpstart for actuaries facing their first renewal.
The workshop takes place successively to the workshop “Reinsurance Underwriting”, therefore, the relating workshops can be combined at a reduced fee.
