Guy Carpenter won a competitive tender with Pool Re that will see its reinsurance broking contract renewed for three years, with an option to run to five.
The announcement comes as Pool Re seeks to modernise its treaty arrangements, which represents the most fundamental structural shift it has seen during its thirty-year lifespan.
Pool Re’s reinsurance is estimated to underpin around 90% of the commercial property terrorism cover in Great Britain, protecting over £2trn of assets.
Tom Clementi, CEO of Pool Re, commented: “The reinsurance that Pool Re buys is a fundamental part of our effort to find proactive ways to return risk to the market which is, in turn, a pre-condition of the unlimited financial support we continue to receive from HMT. Our reinsurance programme, which is the largest terrorism reinsurance programme in the world and has included two groundbreaking ILS deals, is core to our strategy and we are delighted to have reappointed Guy Carpenter as our reinsurance broker. Guy Carpenter has significant skills and experience in this area and will continue to be an important partner for us.”
Paul Moody, CEO of Guy Carpenter, UK, added: “We are delighted to be able to continue our long partnership with Pool Re which has seen the company achieve so much with the support of our Terrorism and Public Sector focused Practices. The next few years will once again be pivotal for Pool Re and we are proud that they have chosen to work with Guy Carpenter on this next phase of their journey.”
Pool Re’s reinsurance covers property damage arising from CBRN attacks; property damage arising from cyber-triggered terrorist losses and conventional terrorist acts; and non-damage BI.
