CedeOS

Leakage Analytics

Premium Leakage Analytics — Quantify and Recover Reinsurance Revenue.

CedeOS identifies reinsurance premium leakage prospectively — by policy, by treaty clause, by cedant — before submission.

The Condition

The error-to-discovery gap is 3 to 18 months. At 18 months, recovery is 40 cents on the dollar.

ERROR OCCURS← 3–18 month gap →DISCOVERYRECOVERY
Day 1Month 3–18Month 18–24 · 40–60¢ recovery

WITH CEDEOS: Detection same day. Before submission. Full recovery.

01

Cession rate errors

Treaty says 70% quota share. One cedant submits at 65% across 400 policies. The 5% delta accumulates for 14 months before detection at annual reconciliation.

Detection: 14 months post-error · Recovery: contested at 40–60 cents

02

Treaty application errors

Motor fleet exclusion in the treaty schedule. Three policies classified as 'commercial motor' in the bordereaux but 'fleet' in the policy system. The mismatch is invisible in aggregate.

USD 100K–200K typical accumulated exposure · Recovery contested at 40–60 cents

03

Reinstatement calculation errors

Treaty reinstatement calculated on original annual premium. Mid-year endorsement changes the basis. System uses post-endorsement figure. Error compounds every quarter.

Multi-million KES accumulated · Typically identified at renewal · No prospective detection mechanism

Scenarios reflect common leakage patterns across African and Asian reinsurance programmes. Financial figures based on treaty structure analysis and industry benchmarks. Specific client validation in progress.

The Cost

The leakage is not visible in aggregate. It lives in the rows.

Error categories invisible to manual review

Detected only at row level

Methodology: 2.5% × $50M GWP = $1.25M recoverable per year. Industry benchmark validated against African and Asian treaty programme structures.

Projected Recovery

The exposure is quantifiable before the first submission.

A single pilot assessment — one quarter of bordereaux data validated against applicable treaty clauses — surfaces leakage across five error categories that manual reconciliation cannot detect at the row level.

$1.25M

Annual recoverable leakage

Methodology: 2.5% × $50M GWP. Industry benchmark validated against East African and Asian treaty programme structures. Pilot validation in progress.

The Mechanism

Four analytics panels. Every error quantified, cited, and documented.

Portfolio Leakage Rate

Aggregate leakage across all cedants as a percentage of GWP. Trended quarterly. Benchmarked against target. The CFO metric.

Error Category Breakdown

Five error categories quantified: cession rate, treaty application, exclusion misclassification, reinstatement calculation, aggregate breach. Per-category exposure in local currency and USD.

Cedant-Level Exposure

Every cedant ranked by total leakage exposure. Drilldown to policy level. Treaty clause citation for every error. The conversation starter for cedant reviews.

Recovery Documentation

For every error identified: the incorrect value, the correct value, the governing clause, the financial impact. Exportable as audit-ready evidence pack per cedant.

Two Modes

Prospective detection. Retrospective recovery.

Prospective (Going Forward)

  • Row-level validation before any figure enters the accounts
  • Five error categories checked on every row
  • Caught at ingestion, before submission
  • Full recovery — zero dispute

Timeline: Same day · Recovery: 100%

Retrospective (Historical Portfolio)

  • Historical bordereaux re-validated against current treaty rules
  • Carrier-by-carrier exposure quantified
  • Recovery documentation generated automatically
  • Supports dispute evidence with clause citation

Timeline: First pilot week · Recovery: 40–90% depending on gap

How it works

From ingestion to recovery documentation. Five steps.

01

Ingestion

Bordereaux ingested in any format. Normalised, currency-converted, confidence-scored.

02

Treaty Rule Extraction

Applicable treaty clauses identified per row. Cession rates, exclusions, retention limits indexed.

03

Row-Level Validation

Every row checked against every applicable rule. Five error categories. Clause-cited discrepancies.

04

Leakage Quantification

Each error quantified in local currency and USD. Aggregated by cedant, error type, and treaty period.

05

Recovery Documentation

Audit-ready evidence pack per cedant. Incorrect value, correct value, governing clause, financial impact.
