Abstract

It has been said that insurance is the last of the financial services to accept radical change. Yet there has been a fundamental shift in the geographical location and in the organization of the reinsurance industry in the last six years. Global environmental risks are partly responsible for this change. increased weather volatility and catastrophic risks are difficult to diversify using traditional insurance practices.
