Report Says A Prolonged Financial Market Downturn Would Erode Insurers' Surplus Capital Across EMEA


S&P Global Ratings Top 40 Global Reinsurers And Reinsurers By Country: 2021

To bring you the 2021 edition of Global Reinsurance Highlights, S&P Global Ratings sought data on around 118 reinsurance organizations from over 33 countries. As in previous years, the data is based on survey responses from reinsurance organizations worldwide.

To ensure consistency, we requested that respondents complied with clear guidelines on the definition of the financial items required. In addition, S&P Global Ratings attempted to verify the data submitted with reference to publicly available data sources, insofar as this was possible.

Our ongoing aim in producing this data is to provide market participants with an indication of the ongoing reinsurance capacity available in each market. Hence, we try to exclude intragroup reinsurance as far as possible. Companies that have not been able to exclude intragroup reinsurance are highlighted in the footnotes.

One of the challenges has been to separate reinsurance from primary insurance business, especially when reinsurance operation is a division within a company and not a distinct operation. Generally speaking, the premium data relates to a company's reinsurance premiums written but, in some cases, other metrics will include both primary and reinsurance business. These cases can be identified through the footnotes to the tables, although if we do not consider that the metrics provided by the company are representative of the company's reinsurance operations, we have marked the metric as not available (N.A.).

For companies that report in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, we have converted the reported data at year-end exchange rates.

We have endeavored to collect the data underlying each group or entity's combined ratio in order to calculate this metric in a comparable manner. The combined ratios presented in our Global Reinsurance Highlights report have been calculated as: (net losses incurred + net underwriting expenses)/net premiums earned. The combined (loss and expense) ratio of any entity that writes purely life reinsurance has been marked as not meaningful (N.M.), as we do not consider this to be an accurate measure of a life reinsurer's profitability. For groups or entities that write both non-life and life reinsurance business, the combined ratio reflects non-life business only.

The main group and country listing for each entity surveyed is representative of that group or company's total reinsurance business written, whether it be life, non-life, or a combination of both.
