The estimated impact from third-quarter hurricanes is pre-tax, net of retrocessional reinsurance and any reinstatement premiums, the company said.

PartnerRe said that the estimate is made following a preliminary analysis of its exposures, the latest insured industry loss estimates and preliminary information received from specific cedants.

The reinsurer noted “material uncertainty” in the loss estimates,  “given the nature, magnitude and recency of these loss events and the limited claims information received to date.”
