The Company maintains a comprehensive reinsurance program to manage risk exposure, reduce earnings volatility, and safeguard capital. By ceding a portion of its underwriting risk to highly rated reinsurers and alternative capital providers, the Company limits the financial impact of catastrophe events. Nevertheless, the Company remains ultimately responsible for policyholder claims should a reinsurer fail to perform.

The Company’s reinsurance strategy includes a mix of quota share and excess of loss (“XOL”) structures, alongside collateralized protection through catastrophe bonds. The Company works with reinsurers rated “A-” (Excellent) or better by A.M. Best, or requires appropriate collateral. Contracts often include provisions allowing for replacement of reinsurers whose financial condition deteriorates.

The Company’s catastrophe reinsurance program supports property risks underwritten by us on behalf of our MGA and third-party MGAs. These risks are protected by program-specific XOL treaties, and in some cases, quota share reinsurance. In addition to the program specific covers, the Company is also protected by a corporate catastrophe cover and participation in the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund (FHCF). This structure is designed to provide protection against severe loss events across the portfolio, covering up to at least a 1-in-250-year return period threshold.

For business written by the Company’s MGA, the Company has strategically retained more risk in recent periods by scaling back proportional reinsurance, reflecting the Company’s confidence in the portfolio’s underwriting performance. The Company’s MGA is primarily covered by standalone catastrophe XOL protection.

Additionally, the Company utilizes collateralized reinsurance through Mountain Re Ltd., a Bermuda-based special purpose insurer. The catastrophe bonds issued through Mountain Re Ltd. provide multi-year per occurrence coverage for a range of perils for business written through the Company’s MGA.
