This initiative is underpinned by capacity providers, chiefly led by specialty insurance and reinsurance firm Aspen.
"Coalition Re represents a novel form of reinsurance entity, empowering carriers with profound insights into the cyber risks within their portfolios, transcending beyond mere capacity addition," stated Coalition’s head of insurance, Shawn Ram.
Coalition explains that Coalition Re leverages a detailed bottom-up approach to precisely price non-proportional reinsurance contracts. This enables cedents to acquire a deeper understanding of their cyber policyholders and identify critical risk sources within their portfolios.
In addition, the platform offers an all-encompassing, white-labelled product suite that includes risk mitigation tools and services, currently accessible solely to Coalition’s standalone Active Cyber Insurance policyholders.
Coalition emphasizes that active insurance provides comprehensive support to underlying policyholders before, during, and after a cyber incident, contrasting with traditional policies that lack risk mitigation and response elements.
Aspen’s head of cyber, Bobby Bianconi, highlighted that the Coalition Re solution brings essential clarity to the increasingly complex arena of cyber risk management. “We anticipate a substantial opportunity with this new capacity and the unique cyber risk insights that accompany it. Coalition is exceptionally positioned to deliver these valuable services to cedants,” he affirmed.
Content derived from Coalition’s recent announcement emphasizes the critical need for advanced cyber risk solutions in an era of escalating digital threats.
