Life insurance companies increasingly use reinsurance to build their business, spread risk, finance growth, and achieve critical corporate objectives in todays challenging environment. To meet these needs, Scottish Re offers three categories of life and annuity reinsurance products, which we refer to as Traditional Solutions, Financial Solutions and Acquired Solutions.

TRADITIONAL SOLUTIONS
In our Traditional Solutions business, we reinsure the mortality risk on life insurance policies written by primary insurers. This business is often referred to as traditional life reinsurance. We write our Traditional Solutions business predominantly on an automatic basis with respect to newly written life insurance policies. This means that we automatically reinsure all policies written by a ceding company that meet the underwriting criteria specified in the treaty.

FINANCIAL SOLUTIONS
Our Financial Solutions business offers reinsurance solutions that improve the financial position of our clients by increasing their capital availability and statutory surplus. This business is often referred to as financial reinsurance. These solutions include contracts under which we assume the investment and persistency risks of existing, as well as newly written, blocks of business. The products reinsured include annuities and annuity-type products, cash value life insurance and, to a lesser extent, disability products that are in a pay-out phase.
