S.31.01 — Share of reinsurers (including Finite Reinsurance and SPV’s)

General comments:

This section relates to the annual submission of information for groups.

This template shall be filled by the insurance and reinsurance groups where a recoverable is recognised by related insurance undertakings in relation to the EEA or Non–EEA–reinsurer which is not in the scope of the group (even if all contracts with that reinsurer have terminated).

The template collects information on reinsurers and not on separate treaties. All ceded technical provisions, including those ceded under Finite reinsurance (as defined in S.30.03 Column C0060 of Annex II), shall be completed. This also means that if an SPV or a syndicate of Lloyd’s acts as a reinsurer the SPV or the syndicate must be listed.
