Re Finance is a two-day program designed for insurer and reinsurer professionals, attorneys, and regulatory staff to learn about the fundamentals of property and casualty (re)insurance financial analysis and reporting. The program is also useful as a refresher, or an introductory case study for financial analysts. This is a perfect course for those who work for or with P&C reinsurance companies and wish to grasp the underlying accounting process. You’ll leave with a thorough grasp of the fundamental concepts of property and casualty reinsurance accounting and reporting.
Attendees will:

  • Learn differences in the various accounting systems;
  • Develop a working knowledge of key financial and accounting terms;
  • Analyze and interpret comparative financial statements;
  • Compute and interpret financial ratios;

The course's case study teaches the practical application of the basic financial analysis concepts and reviews financial tools that enable professionals to make more informed decisions when dealing with financial issues.
