Global brand rankings for Property & Casualty reinsurance 2023

Good brands bring competitive benefit. This is especially true in reinsurance, an industry where partnerships and capabilities are critical to outperformance longer term.

A lens into brand performance

Our 2023 Top 50 global brand rankings for Property & Casualty reinsurance offer insight into overall brand performance.

Rankings have been derived from factors that include the unaided perspectives of insurers and reinsurance brokers as to the best-quality reinsurer brands overall, as well as any distinct preferences for specialist expertise at the line of business level.

As such, we expect these to be relatively stable metrics but also benefit from a relative absence of subjectivity.

Brand strength, as defined, inevitably correlates with the size and scope of client portfolios, although beyond this, significant differences between competing brands are readily apparent.
