As one of the world's leading catastrophe reinsurers, PartnerRe has a Business Unit dedicated strictly to the underwriting of worldwide catastrophe contracts. This unit, under central management, operates out of two locations, one in Bermuda and the other in Zurich. In Bermuda, contracts are underwritten for our U.S., Canadian, U.K., and Irish clients. In Zurich, underwriting services are carried out for our clients in all other markets around the world.

PartnerRe's Catastrophe business is characterized by two distinguishing strategic decisions. First, our global reach and superior financial strength allow us to build a highly diversified portfolio that is consistent with the Group's strategy of diversification. Secondly, since our establishment, we have invested significant financial and intellectual capital in developing proprietary catastrophe models. The CatFocus® suite of models developed by our Research Department, when combined with our deep underwriting experience, distinguishes our process of risk selection and provides value to our clients.
