Claims process

From notification to settlement — step by step.

  1. 01

    First notification of loss

    Cedant notifies 7Re via the secure portal or by direct contact with the claims team. A claims reference is issued within four working hours. All treaty-relevant information is confirmed at this stage.

  2. 02

    Coverage verification

    7Re confirms treaty applicability, retention, cession percentage and any relevant conditions. The cedant receives written acknowledgement within one working day.

  3. 03

    Document collection

    Cedant uploads claim documents via the portal. Our team reviews for completeness. Missing documents are flagged within 48 hours to avoid settlement delays.

  4. 04

    Assessment and agreement

    Claims are assessed by our technical team. For complex or large losses, we may appoint a loss adjuster working jointly with the cedant's appointed assessor.

  5. 05

    Settlement

    Agreed claims are settled to the cedant's nominated account within the treaty-specified payment period. Shariah-compliant fund accounting applies to all settlements.

Underwriting guidelines

What we look for — transparently stated.

Risk selection

Portfolio quality

We assess the takaful operator's underwriting guidelines, pricing adequacy, and historical loss experience before agreeing treaty terms. Quality matters more than volume.

Shariah

Structural compliance

The cedant's own Shariah governance framework is reviewed at onboarding. We will not accept cession from an operator whose underlying takaful structure is not certified by an SSB.

Data

Data standards

We require at least three years of credible loss experience for treaty renewals and provide a standard bordereaux template to ensure consistent data quality.

Technical support

Expertise available beyond the treaty.

Actuarial

Pricing review support

Our actuarial team can assist cedants in reviewing their own pricing adequacy and catastrophe modelling assumptions. Available on request for treaty cedants.

Shariah

Wording review

We review cedant policy wordings for Shariah compliance issues that may affect the retakaful structure. Provided as part of the treaty onboarding process.

Training

Technical workshops

7Re runs annual technical workshops for cedant teams on retakaful structuring, claims best practices and Shariah governance updates. Open to all active cedants.

Regulatory

Regulatory guidance

Our team tracks regulatory developments across our operating markets and provides cedants with updates that affect retakaful treaty structures or Shariah standards.
