Bespoke Treaty and Facultative reinsurance, underwritten with conviction on behalf of rated reinsurers — for select reinsurance brokers and cedants.
We work by relationship and by conviction — with brokers and cedants we choose, and risks we believe in. That is deliberate. It is how the work stays good.
Asten Re — the reinsurance capacity house of ELAM Reinsurance Group
We price by hand, bind with conviction, and put the security of rated paper behind every line.
Asten Re underwrites bespoke Treaty and Facultative reinsurance on behalf of rated reinsurers, across a select range of classes. We hold the pen — assessing, pricing and binding each risk within an agreed appetite — which means decisions made by senior people, quickly, with the security of rated balance sheets behind the limit. We work where we know the risk best: the MENA region and the markets around it, first with the reinsurance brokers who place with us, and with select cedants directly — always by relationship.
We assess each risk by hand, and bind only what we believe in.
Our capacity is backed by rated reinsurers; their balance sheets stand behind every line.
Holding delegated authority, we decide close to the risk — and answer quickly.
