2. Operating model
Reinsurance redistributes catastrophe, mortality / morbidity, liability, and large-loss risks across insurers and global capital. Toa Reinsurance is important because Japanese primary insurers’ risk capacity is partly shaped by domestic and global reinsurance relationships, including the big three non-life insurers Tokio Marine, MS&AD, and SOMPO HD who cede a portion of catastrophe exposure via natcat reinsurance arrangements.
