For this purpose, foreign reinsurers must submit to the SFC certain information of the authorized underwriting agencies and keep it updated, under penalty of their registry cancellation in the REACOEX.
Furthermore, underwriting agencies that are authorized in their country of origin to act as reinsurance brokers, shall apply for registration in the REACOEX as a foreign reinsurance broker.
