Our experience in the direct insurance market has brought to the light the glaring problems that the insurance companies face while providing terms for specialized insurance products. Lack of proper underwriting information to be sent to the reinsurance markets, improper documentation for placing the risk and so on have been some of the areas of concern that the insurance companies have. This was the opportunity that India Insure saw and decided to enter into the Reinsurance broking Space.
Our Journey in the Reinsurance broking space started in April 2006 and since then we have serviced a premium volume of almost USD 25 Mn. We have also had the privilege of having placed one of the largest programs for a Hydro Power Project in India. 80% of the specialty lines of business being done by the Direct Broking team involves Reinsurance placement being done by the Reinsurance team of India Insure.
