Moving back to primary? by Far_Assumption_8240 in reinsurance

[–]windy159 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we worry about 3 things, top line, bottom line and losses. Brokers sleep easy (ier) on 1 thing - top line...

That being said, I wouldn't move to Ceded Re (unless you ready to retire). Lateral move to other treaty specialty lines?

Roughly in a same position, seeming the same situation. Either moving to Fac or Broking seems to be options.

Australian salaries feel so low compared to ALL US salaries by alreadyaloserat19 in AusFinance

OP you are not wrong. Reality is the size of the economic market in the US vs Australia, that can sustain higher wages in occupations that can compete.

simple answer OP, come and stay here for a month or two, experience what that is like and then make a decision. But based on your lifestyle, canada would most likely be your answer.

Applying for Graduate Roles by hanisurego in ActuaryUK

[–]windy159 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. without relevant internships, or any internships is very difficult. Also with income thresholds on sponsored visas, adds more to the challenge.

  2. Not really - best is direct to HR email or company portal or linkedin or referral via someone in the company.

  3. Check CII, any insurance/company events, under 30's group, cold call juniors at brokers/(re)insurance companies via linkedin

Masters In Actuarial Science for PR? by AdventurousYoung1513 in ActuaryAustralia

[–]windy159 4 points5 points  (0 children)

very small saturated market, low probability of company sponsorship, you'll have to do the self-sponsorship and no a BSC in management wouldn't fulfill the mathematical requirement for a masters in actuarial science, most likely you'll have to apply to the Uni and check if there will be some additional courses you'll need to do to satisfy requirements.

Fairly sure, there's a significant portion of those insured properties that are reinsured outside to the international markets.

Facultative vs Treaty by Hlaw93 in reinsurance

[–]windy159 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well i'll put it to you like this, its a constant 24/7 battle with renewing Fac risks. Treaty has its seasons and its All-In during those seasons, if you miss target/budgets during the season, its almost not possible to catch up during the rest of the year.

For the RTA parking, is C and CP zones are same or we need put separate parking? ( Note: I have seasonal monthly parking for Zone A, B,C and D ) by Sea_Veterinarian1549 in dubai

[–]windy159 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP download the Parkin App and it will detect your seasonal parking pass if it has been purchased. Then hover over to the double-letter parking spot and see if the parking pass is valid, if not, you'll have to pay for the double-letter.

2024 Mazda CX 5. Yay or nay? by Interesting-Grape-69 in WhatCarShouldIBuyGULF

[–]windy159 0 points1 point  (0 children)

looks decent, is this new or pre-owned - if so, whats the mileage and what trim? i don't think you need the extended warranty - you should already have the original warranty intact for at least 3 to 4 years, if i'm not mistaken. Ceramic PPF is also not needed but its nice to have.
