1. Structure the submission
Capture cedant, insured, class, territory, limits, deductibles, loss history and documents once, with required-field checks determined by the placement type.
Placement
Reinsurance Placement Software
Regure keeps the submission, panel, quote, order, written line, signed line, subjectivity, authority and slip on one deal record. The placement is readable by the firm while it is being worked, not reconstructed after binding. Built for reinsurance brokers, placement teams and underwriting operations.
Why reinsurance placement software needs an operational record
A placement changes market by market. Email records the conversation, spreadsheets record a partial panel, and Word records the slip. The result is three versions of the same transaction and no reliable answer to what is quoted, written, signed, subject to conditions or ready to close.
Regure keeps the submission, panel, quote, order, written line, signed line, subjectivity, authority and slip on one deal record. The placement is readable by the firm while it is being worked, not reconstructed after binding.
The design principle is straightforward: commercial terms, operational state, financial movements, documents and control evidence should not be separate representations of the same deal. They should be views of one governed record. That removes re-keying and makes the answer to a buyer, finance team, auditor or regulator reproducible.
Submission intake and structured risk dataControlled on the transaction, not reconstructed later
Facultative and treaty placement recordsConfigured to the operating model and jurisdiction
Market panel and contact ownershipTraceable from source data to approved output
Operating workflow
How the work moves through Regure
Each stage has an owner, required information, allowed transitions and an audit history. Exceptions are routed rather than hidden in email.
2. Build and approach the panel
Select eligible markets, assign broker ownership, issue controlled packs and record each approach, response, decline reason and follow-up date.
3. Compare terms
Place price, exclusions, warranties, line offered and validity side by side without discarding the original market wording or attachment.
4. Sign and close
Convert the firm order into signed participation, resolve subjectivities, generate the slip and pass the same shares into closing and technical accounting.

Architecture and integration
A modern reinsurance platform does not become another silo
API-first boundaries
Regure can receive submissions, policy transactions, claims and reference data, then publish approved placement, accounting and reporting results. Interfaces use stable identifiers and reconciliation states so failed or duplicate transfers remain visible.
Multi-currency by transaction
Original, deal and settlement currencies remain explicit. Exchange rates are stored with their date, source and purpose, allowing debit notes, credit notes, commission, claims and recoveries to reconcile without overwriting contractual values.
Configurable jurisdictions
Legal entities, offices, permissions, documents, disclosures, approval thresholds and retention rules can vary by jurisdiction while the operating model and reporting taxonomy remain consistent across the group.
Control framework
Controls embedded in the reinsurance workflow
A control is useful when it changes what can happen before the transaction commits, not when it only reports an exception afterward.
Authority limits before firm order
The platform records the applicable rule, responsible role, decision, supporting evidence and timestamp. Authorized exceptions remain explicit and reportable.
Capacity and over-placement warnings
The platform records the applicable rule, responsible role, decision, supporting evidence and timestamp. Authorized exceptions remain explicit and reportable.
Complete decline and response history
The platform records the applicable rule, responsible role, decision, supporting evidence and timestamp. Authorized exceptions remain explicit and reportable.
Slip approval and controlled templates
The platform records the applicable rule, responsible role, decision, supporting evidence and timestamp. Authorized exceptions remain explicit and reportable.
Sanctions evidence at counterparty level
The platform records the applicable rule, responsible role, decision, supporting evidence and timestamp. Authorized exceptions remain explicit and reportable.
Immutable change history
The platform records the applicable rule, responsible role, decision, supporting evidence and timestamp. Authorized exceptions remain explicit and reportable.
Operating model
What changes when the reinsurance record is connected
The business case for reinsurance placement software is not fewer screens. It is fewer breaks between the commercial decision, the contract, the accounting movement and the evidence used to defend them.
One definition of participation
A market’s offered, written and signed positions are different facts and remain different fields. The signed position drives allocation, documents and downstream accounting; earlier positions remain available for placement analysis. Users no longer have to decide which spreadsheet column should be treated as final, and management reporting does not count an indication as bound capacity.
Documents generated from approved data
Slips, endorsements, debit notes, credit notes, statements and bordereaux are produced from the approved transaction state. Templates control presentation, but they do not become a shadow database. If an amount or participant changes, the system records the change, routes approval where required and regenerates the affected output with its version history intact.
Accounting tied to commercial terms
Premium, brokerage, ceding commission, tax, instalments, claims and recoveries refer to the contract terms and participant shares that created them. Finance can trace a balance to the underlying transaction, while brokers and underwriters can see whether a signed deal has been closed, invoiced, settled or left outstanding.
Management information from live work
Pipeline, capacity, renewal, outstanding documentation, aged balances and control exceptions are views of current records. Teams do not stop operating to prepare a management pack. Definitions can still be governed centrally, but every reported figure retains the transactions that make it up.
Buyer evaluation
Questions to ask a reinsurance placement software vendor
Can the system show the transaction at any prior date?
A current value is insufficient for audit, dispute handling and operational learning. Ask whether users can see who changed a term or share, the previous value, the reason, the approval and which documents were valid at that moment. A general activity log is not a substitute for field-level history.
What is configuration, and what requires development?
Test a real change: a new commission basis, approval threshold, output template, currency or reporting field. Establish who can make it, how it is tested, how it is promoted, whether it affects other tenants and how rollback works. This exposes the actual cost and lead time of operating change.
How are exceptions reconciled?
Interfaces, calculations and document generation will encounter incomplete or conflicting records. The important question is whether exceptions have identifiers, owners, status, evidence and a controlled retry path. Silent skips and downloadable error files simply create another manual queue outside the platform.
For a procurement exercise, use a fixed scenario pack across vendors: one new placement with multiple quote revisions, one mid-term change, one participant settling in another currency, one claim crossing an attachment point, one overdue recovery and one renewal with materially changed terms. Require the vendor to complete the chain and show the audit record, not just demonstrate isolated screens.
Implementation
Implement against a real book, not a generic process map
The implementation baseline is a representative set of live or recently completed transactions. Those cases expose the actual terms, documents, exceptions, roles and downstream requirements that a workshop diagram misses.
Discovery and model
Map products, treaty types, currencies, counterparties, approval authorities, templates, accounting events, interfaces and regulatory evidence. Separate genuine variation from historical workarounds.
Configure and prove
Run representative new business, renewal, endorsement, claim and settlement scenarios. Compare calculated values and generated documents with accepted source examples before user acceptance.
Migrate and operate
Move the active records needed for continuity, retain source identifiers, reconcile totals and establish ownership for configuration, data quality, integrations and release approval.
Review the wider platform architecture, security controls and pricing approach, or compare the operational chain across placement, treaty management, closings, bordereaux and recoveries.
Frequently asked questions
Questions buyers ask about reinsurance placement software
What is reinsurance placement software?
reinsurance placement software is an operating system for the reinsurance record: parties, terms, market participation, financial movements, documents, approvals and evidence remain connected from the first submission through settlement and renewal.
Can reinsurance placement software support facultative and treaty business?
Yes. Facultative business is managed risk by risk, while treaty business carries structures, periods, layers, participants, adjustments and performance terms. Both use the same controlled counterparty, document, accounting and audit services.
Does Regure support multiple currencies?
Yes. The deal currency, settlement currency and recorded exchange rate remain explicit. Premium, brokerage, commission, tax, claims and recoveries can therefore be reconciled without replacing the original contractual amount.
Can Regure work with an existing core or finance system?
Yes. Regure can run the reinsurance operation end to end or manage the placement and administration workflow beside an existing policy, general-ledger or data-warehouse system through configured APIs and controlled exports.
How does the platform support audit and compliance?
Every material state change records the actor, time, prior value, new value and supporting document. Permissions, approvals, sanctions evidence, counterparty records and generated documents remain attached to the transaction they governed.
How is implementation scoped?
Implementation starts with a representative book, its documents, approval rules, currencies, market roles and downstream outputs. Configuration is tested against real placements before migration and wider rollout.
