What we write

Products and structures

The covers below represent Global RE's core appetite in casualty. Risks outside this list can still be reviewed when the scope, data, and wording are clear.

General liability

Capacity for third party bodily injury and property damage exposures where operations, territories, and limits are well defined.

Products liability

Selective participation where product type, distribution territory, recall exposure, and historical experience are understood.

Employers liability

Support for workplace injury liability where employment practices, industry sector, and jurisdiction are clearly described.

Project and contractors liability

Liability exposure connected to construction, engineering, and infrastructure projects, reviewed against contractual risk transfer.

Excess casualty

Higher layer support considered where attachment point, wording, claims environment, and historical severity are appropriate.

Clash and accumulation protections

Treaty structures considered where event definitions and multi-policy loss pathways are clearly mapped.

Underwriting view

How Global RE reviews casualty submissions

Each submission is reviewed through the lens of exposure quality, documentation, contractual wording, claims experience, and the specific controls relevant to the class.

Venue and legal trend

Jurisdiction, court behaviour, statutory environment, and social inflation are reviewed for each material territory.

Limit adequacy

Attachment points and policy limits are compared with historical severity and expected development.

Operational exposure

Activities, subcontracting, product use, and contract risk transfer are considered together.

Reporting cadence

Timely bordereaux and large-loss reporting are important for long-tail portfolio monitoring.

Why cedants place with us

Our approach to casualty risk

Jurisdiction-aware appetite

Venue, legal trend, inflation, and litigation behaviour are reviewed before capacity is sized.

Long-tail discipline

Participation reflects development risk and claims severity, not only headline premium volume.

Contract wording review

Limit structure, exclusions, occurrence language, and aggregation provisions are treated as core underwriting inputs.

Claims environment review

Claims files, settlement practices, defence strategy, and large-loss experience shape the underwriting view.
