The role of the international reinsurance broker

Abstract

The title of my paper is "The Role of the International Reinsurance Broker". Some of you may be surprised that Reinsurance Brokers lead a separate existence from Insurance Brokers and indeed many Reinsurance Brokers are offshoots of major Insurance broking houses. However there is a small but distinguished band of Brokers who specialize in Reinsurance, and it is their role, in the context of the risk of earthquake, I propose to examine.
