Lemonade Announces Successful Renewal of Reinsurance Program
01 Luglio 2024 - 10:30PM
Business Wire
The program, led by Lemonade’s existing
partners, will commence as of July 1, 2024.
Lemonade (NYSE: LMND), the digital insurance company powered by
AI and social impact, announced that its reinsurance program is
being renewed. It was led by the same tier-one carriers as the
expiring treaty and was oversubscribed on all dimensions.
The core of the program is 55% quota share protection, the same
level as in recent years. The variable ceding commissions are
projected to be roughly equivalent or better to those enjoyed under
the outgoing agreements. The program covers all Lemonade businesses
globally.
“Partnering once again with the world’s largest and most
respected reinsurers who have chosen to stake their capital on the
performance of our business is a big deal for Lemonade,” said
Daniel Schreiber, Lemonade CEO and cofounder. “Our program renews
this year on yet better terms than last year, and was once again
oversubscribed. This program allows us to continue to accelerate
our growth in a very capital light mode.”
A year ago, Lemonade formed a new risk-bearing entity, Lemonade
Re, in the Cayman Islands, where some of the retained risk was
held. Similarly, a captive cell was established at a Bermuda
transformer, which has been utilized to retain most of Lemonade’s
windstorm exposure. While windstorm reinsurance capacity was
available, this structure was determined to offer a materially
better cost/benefit profile.
The new program is in effect for a standard 12-month term. The
Company’s financial expectations for Q2 and for the full year 2024,
as communicated in the Q1 ‘24 Lemonade Letter to Shareholders,
remain unchanged.
