What is retrocession in the insurance industry?

  1. A method for calculating premiums

  2. Claim recovery procedures

  3. Ceding a portion of risk to another insurer

  4. A type of policy available to consumers

The correct answer is: Ceding a portion of risk to another insurer

Retrocession in the insurance industry refers to the practice of a primary insurer ceding a portion of the risk it has assumed to another insurer. This is done through an agreement or contract between the two insurers, where the primary insurer pays a premium to the other insurer for taking on a portion of the risk. This option is incorrect because A is not the method used for calculating premiums, B is not the procedure for claim recovery, and D is not a type of policy available to consumers.
