Allianz Risk Transfer at a glance
What you can expect from across AGCS
Structured Insurance & CaptiveReinsurance Solutions
Structured insurance programs are tailored solutions, designed to respond to a client’s particular risk management needs. The multi-year and/or multi-line nature of these solutions means the client is able to manage the volatility emanating from partially retained risks efficiently over longer periods. These programs often include profit sharing elements and can also include risks for which traditional insurance is unavailable and/or emerging risks.
Basket aggregate solutions/ Virtual captives
Tailored solution designed to provide stop loss protection excess of an aggregated attachment for retentions across multiple lines of business. Once combined losses within the retentions exceed the basket aggregate attachment, ART pays the difference up to the basket limit. Basket aggregates work well for clients who have, or are considering, sizeable retentions and deductibles for multiple lines. It can also function as a stepping stone for clients who are considering captive formation but are not ready to commit time and capital.
Integrated Solutions
Customized solutions provided on a multi-line basis designed to replace, bundle or complement a client’s existing mono-line program. A key feature is that we can offer a stable premium over a multi-year period in return for a stretched aggregate limit across all risks. Flexible integrated capacity can be utilized at different attachment points depending on client needs and locks in cover over the program term.
Global fronting/captive fronting
ARTCaptive Fronting draws on our considerable experience in insurance program design and management to deliver a range of global fronting solutions. From coordinated standalone local placements to fully integrated InternationalInsurance Programs, we adopt a modular approach to program design to ensure our captive clients are fully covered wherever their business takes them. Our extensive global network comprising Allianz offices and carefully selected partners offers a wealth of underwriting, risk management, policy servicing and claims expertise in 200+ countries and territories. Together we deliver maximum peace of mind in the most flexible, cost-effective and efficient way – and global service excellence backed by the established strength and stability of the Allianz Group.
