CREDIT & BOND
Our Credit & Bond reinsurance business will offer pro rata and excess of loss solutions for all traditional Trade Credit and Bond classes mainly emanating from Europe and Latin America. Our substantial capacity and our expertise will be available to all specialty credit insurance companies and to all bond operations with dedicated and specialized staff.

ENGINEERING
Provides coverage for all types of civil construction risks and risks associated with erection, testing and commissioning of machinery and plants during the construction stage. This line of business also includes operational risks for machinery, plant and equipment, electronic equipment and business interruption. We write engineering business on a proportional and non-proportional treaty basis as well as on a facultative basis.

GENERAL LIABILITY, SPECIALTY LIABILITY AND MOTOR LIABILITY
We will underwrite a motor and general liability excess of loss portfolio across all European markets with an emphasis on intermediate and upper layers of programs. Specialty liability lines with an intermediate loss development tail will be entertained for ceding companies with well-defined portfolios and specialized underwriting teams. Pro rata acceptances will be considered in exceptional cases.

PROPERTY CATASTROPHE REINSURANCE
Our property catastrophe reinsurance business provides protection for most catastrophic losses that occur in Europe. We frequently cover the perils of windstorm, earthquake, flood, tornado, hail and fire. Coverage for other perils may be negotiated on a case-by-case basis. Protection under property catastrophe treaties is provided on an occurrence basis with limited reinstatements. Our approach is to use the most detailed data to analyze exposures in order to provide quotations.  We can provide significant capacity to support our pricing.  

PROPERTY PER RISK TREATY REINSURANCE
As ceding companies de-emphasize proportional structures in Europe, we are willing to provide significant capacity for per risk excess of loss programs.  The subject business can include residential, commercial and industrial property risks. We provide coverage for the perils of fire, explosion, collapse, riot, vandalism, hurricane and windstorm, tornado, flood and earthquake.   Other perils can be covered on a case by case basis.

PROPORTIONAL TREATY REINSURANCE
AXIS will be requesting event limits in order to participate on proportional treaty reinsurance contracts. Proportional treaty reinsurance may contain significant risk of accumulation of exposures, both to natural and other perils. Our underwriting process explicitly recognizes these exposures. Natural perils, such as hurricane and windstorm, earthquake and flood, are analyzed through our catastrophe modelling systems.  We maintain our strict profitability targets for both quota share and surplus share structures.
