Question 20
Quota share
In terms of a quota share treaty, the reinsurer is bound to accept a fixed proportion of every
risk. The risk is shared on a proportional basis between the cadent and reinsurer. The share
of the different parties involved in the government is expressed as a percentage.
The reinsurer will pay 100% - 60%
= 40% *80000
= 32000
Section B: false / true
1.1 False – re-insurance does not assure that the buyer of insurance will charge the same
premium for the same risk.
- The purpose of reinsurance is to spread risk and increases the financial stability
of insurers.

amount when the percentage of the loss is greater than 75% and the loss is should
between the insured and the insurer when the percentage of the loss is less than 75% of
the loss percentage of the loss calculation.
Total sum / total value * 100/ 1= 100000/125000* 100/1= 80%
False because the percentage of the loss is 80% which is greater than 75%.
The insurer would pay the full amount of the loss which is 50000 not 40000.
1.3 False: this principle applies to policies of indemnity contribution is where the insured
has more than one policy. In force for the same risk, each insurer pays its share of risk
and the insured does not profit.
1.4 True: pooling makes more and reliable predictions which results in smaller deviations
from expectations in terms of possible losses.
- Pre- requisite for insurance is insurable interest.
1.5 False: insurable interest must be present at the inception or at the insurance of the
policy and not when a claim is lodged.
- Insurable interest is the legally recognised relationship between the insured and
the financial loss he or she suffers.
1.6. True: it is a policy of exclusion where by anything that is not specifically excluded will be
covered under all risks insurance.
