Global Views on Reinsurance
Global Reinsurance Market Trends
17
Overall in 2017 – most significant year for losses since 2011 -catastrophes amounted to earnings events, as rated balance
sheets emerged flat for the year.
Hurricane Harvey, Irma, Maria combined with EQ in Mexico and Wildfire in California produced industry losses in the range of
USD 80 to 100 billion.
Alternative capital investors were NOT hindered by the losses and brought additional capacity to the market for the renewals.

Headwinds Tailwinds
Intense competition Cession rates increasing
Increasing interest from third party capital Cat losses temporarily stabilize rates
Earnings stabilize but remain under pressure Favorable reserve development, but waning
Excess capacity hinders further improvement Strong risk-adjusted capital
Potential for increased inflation Increase in interest rates
M&A
Although capitalization remains strong and rate deterioration temporarily halted, pressure on margins continues. Over
the intermediate term, returns for some reinsurers will fall short on a risk-adjusted basis. Maintain negative market
outlook.
