Facultative Reinsurance
Hannover Re’s Facultative Division was founded on 1st
April 2001. As part of the company’s P&C organisation, its
launch was motivated by the recognition that our written
portfolio requires specific knowledge and expertise in the
relevant lines of business right across the world.
We are constantly refining our organisation in order to
meet and indeed surpass our clients’ expectations.
Currently consisting of 12 local offices, our network spans
the globe. Premium wise, a significant part of our business
is written from Hannover. This enables us to build close
relationships between the underwriters with regional
responsibilities and the specialty lines, hence leading to a
more client- oriented and unified marketing approach.
It is the aim of the Facultative Division to offer our clients
reinsurance solutions for all risks where coverage is needed.
We especially welcome the opportunity to provide tailormade solutions. Particularly where specialty risks are
concerned, we truly believe that reinsurance should be
perceived as a partnership of which the original insured,
the ceding company and the reinsurer should benefit. We
at Hannover Re’s Facultative Division are dedicated to
providing our clients with a high standard of efficient
services, particularly where underwriting expertise and
experience are requested from our partners. For instance,
we introduced centres of competence for dedicated lines of
business and products in which we concentrate our underwriting experience to write lead business.

We are constantly striving to improve our services in our
pursuit of Hannover Re’s goal to become the preferred
partner of our clients.
