Description: “Getting to Woe Some” is a thought-provoking title for Rick Flaspöhler’s recent presentation to the ACLI Reinsurance Executive Round Table in March 2005. Flaspöhler presented the high-level findings of the biennial reinsurance survey, and in his words this industry has gone from “bad to worse.” The reinsurance industry now finds itself in a unique and difficult situation that will require dramatic steps to improve things going forward.

Description: An examination of past Flaspohler Survey data to identify drivers of direct writer satisfaction with reinsurers.
