About Reactions
Reactions was born on a kitchen table in London in March 1981. Originally produced as a magazine focusing on the global reinsurance market, it has expanded over the years to cover the whole risk transfer spectrum. Our audience today is executives at insurance and reinsurance companies, brokers, risk managers, and service providers.
Our focus is predominantly on the chain between businesses seeking to lay off risk to insurers, and insurers in turn looking to pass on parts of their risk to reinsurers. As such, we have a heavy focus on the non-life business insurance and reinsurance markets, but we do also cover the personal lines and life markets when the news agenda dictates we should.
Our coverage is a broad as the companies we cover. The modern global insurance and reinsurance company operates in all areas of the industry and parts of the world, and so do we.
We provide up-to-the-minute news and analysis on the trends and companies in property/casualty and property-catastrophe lines. This includes niche specialty lines such as aerospace, marine, energy, and terrorism lines, and specialised forms of distribution such as surplus lines business through managing general agents in the US.
As the industry has evolved, so has Reactions. We were one of the first to comprehensively cover new forms of risk transfer such as insurance-linked securities, and continue to bring you the latest developments from the cutting edge of the convergence between capital markets and the insurance industry.
Reactions will continue to evolve. We have focused more over time on emerging markets as international firms have expanded, bringing you the latest developments from markets such as China, India, Brazil and the Middle East. We also provide subscribers to our service with the latest thinking on emerging risks such as climate change and nanotechnology.
We are the only way you can get truly global comprehensive coverage of the insurance and reinsurance markets in one place. Through our offices in London and New York we can provide you with around-the-clock coverage of news as it breaks, and tell you what it will mean for your business.
