SCOR (FR0010411983) continues to execute its multi-year Forward 2026 strategy as a global reinsurer headquartered in Paris. The group positions itself against sector peers such as Munich Re and Swiss Re, with a focus on capital strength and disciplined underwriting in a persistently hard reinsurance market.

Forward 2026 sets long-term targets

SCOR’s Forward 2026 plan defines financial and operational targets through 2026, including growth in selected property and casualty lines and an emphasis on risk-adjusted profitability. The strategy was highlighted in the context of January 2024 P&C renewals, where management pointed to attractive pricing and improved terms in key segments.

In its communications around Forward 2026, SCOR stresses the importance of maintaining a robust solvency ratio and optimizing its capital allocation across reinsurance and insurance solutions. The plan also underlines the group’s ambition to strengthen its position in specialty lines while remaining disciplined in catastrophe exposure and retrocession.

Operational focus on reinsurance and risk solutions

SCOR operates across life and health reinsurance and property and casualty reinsurance, providing risk-transfer and risk-financing solutions to insurance companies worldwide. The group’s business model is built on underwriting expertise, advanced risk modeling and a diversified portfolio by geography and line of business.

Management has repeatedly emphasized that recent renewals have allowed SCOR to grow in preferred lines while maintaining strict underwriting criteria. This includes a focus on contracts with improved terms and conditions, higher attachment points and tighter wordings that respond to lessons learned from past loss events.

What the company sells

SCOR’s core business is reinsurance, not retail insurance products. The group provides life and health reinsurance treaties, property and casualty reinsurance programs and specialty risk solutions such as agricultural, credit and surety, and alternative risk-transfer structures for institutional clients. Revenues stem mainly from premiums and fee income rather than direct consumer sales.
