Did you know, for example, that without the support of the reinsurance industry many goods and services that we take for granted would simply not be available? Or that peak risks consist of earthquakes or storms in industrialised countries with high insurance density.
This App include brief definitions of the following insurances: space, product liability, agricultural, casualty, credit, business interruption, accident, engineering, directors’ and officers’ liability, natural hazards, aviation, marine, life & health, motor, property and third party liability. It also summarises the two main forms of traditional insurance such as facultative reinsurance and treaty insurance and the importance of the diversification of risks.
So the App covers all the basics of the business. Touching on the reinsurance business model, emerging risks, underwriting, risk management and volatility. The App uses audio, graphics, videos and animations to bring the story of reinsurance alive.
