Our Purpose

Enabling Responsible Risk-Taking

Progress depends on the willingness and ability to take risk.

Insurers accept risk so that businesses can invest, projects can be developed, goods can move across borders, professionals can perform their work and communities can recover after loss. Reinsurance gives insurers the confidence and financial capacity to perform that role.

SID Re exists to make responsible risk-taking more achievable.

Our purpose is to connect risk with the knowledge, structure and capacity required to manage it responsibly.

Through our work, we seek to:
  • Help insurers withstand severe and unexpected losses
  • Strengthen the resilience of insurance portfolios and balance sheets
  • Increase the capacity available for productive economic activity
  • Support the development of specialist and emerging insurance markets
  • Reduce gaps between risks requiring protection and capacity available to insure them
  • Facilitate the movement of expertise and capital across borders
  • Help clients convert uncertainty into informed commercial decisions
  • Support recovery, continuity and renewed economic activity following loss
  • Create sustainable value for clients, capacity partners, shareholders and the wider markets we serve

We believe that the highest purpose of reinsurance is not merely to absorb loss. It is to provide the confidence that allows clients and societies to prepare, act, recover and move forward.
