What follows is Synpulse’s latest market assessment report, evaluating prominent outwards reinsurance systems. This will give clients a high-level understanding of the nuances involved, before identifying the best-fit solution for their business through a comprehensive evaluation process.

Over the past five years, the outwards reinsurance system (ORS) market has witnessed a significant transformation. The emergence of the "new generation" solution providers has disrupted the status quo, bringing forth advanced IT modernity and user-friendly platforms. While established providers boast extensive functionality, they often lag in technical modernity and usability.

In a market brimming with diverse options, selecting the right outwards reinsurance solution is of paramount importance. This in-depth study evaluates different outwards reinsurance systems across 12 crucial categories, spanning business capabilities, IT-related factors, and other essential aspects. Since publishing the report initially in 2022, Synpulse has gone on to become the implementation partner of the UK based outwards reinsurance system provider, Cenata, in December 2023. Cenata’s outwards reinsurance system, CenataSure, was one of the best performing systems across all categories in the assessment and since, has further impressed with new functionalities and successful client integrations.

Additionally, upon republishing, we have added a revision note which highlights any minor changes in the market since the time it was last published.
