Random Insurance Term.
Registered InsurerThe registration of a reinsurer is significant in determining whether an insurer can obtain full credit with regulators for the transfer of insurance liabilities to a reinsurer. Any reinsurer not under the regulatory control of a Canadian insurance regulator (is not licensed) is deemed unregistered and the primary insurer must cover any liabilities transferred to this unregistered reinsurer.
Note: Registration (corporate), should not be confused with Licensing (operations).
