📊 Risk Management Services

At Island Re, we view risk management not just as a service, but as a strategic partnership. Our goal is to help our cedents navigate the increasingly complex global risk landscape, protect their capital, and achieve sustainable growth.

Strategic Pillars of Risk Management

Our comprehensive approach combines advanced analytics, deep market expertise, and innovative capital solutions to enhance your overall enterprise risk management (ERM) framework.

1. Advanced Risk Analytics & Modeling

We move beyond standard models to provide a granular view of your exposure.

  • Tail Risk Assessment: Identifying and quantifying low-frequency, high-severity events that pose the greatest threat to your capital base.
  • Peril Specific Modeling: Utilizing proprietary and vendor models to assess exposure to natural catastrophes (CAT), cyber risk, and emerging hazards.
  • Portfolio Optimization: Analyzing the correlation and diversification of your ceded portfolio to maximize coverage efficiency and minimize frictional costs.

2. Capital and Solvency Solutions

Effective risk transfer is about optimizing your capital structure to meet regulatory demands and stakeholder expectations.

  • Solvency II/Bermuda Solvency Capital Requirement (BSCR) Support: Providing solutions structured to optimize your regulatory capital position and improve solvency ratios.
  • Stress Testing and Scenario Analysis: Conducting rigorous simulations to evaluate your balance sheet resilience under various market and catastrophic scenarios.
  • Capital Efficiency Review: Structuring reinsurance treaties (Quota Share, Excess of Loss, etc.) that provide the most efficient capital relief for your retained risks.

3. Emerging and Specialty Risk Expertise

The risk landscape is constantly evolving. We specialize in helping clients manage risks where historical data is sparse or non-existent.
