That’s up 6.2% from the total for those same company’s in 2017.

The property and casualty reinsurers Moody’s tracks reported $181 billion in P&C reinsurance premium revenue, up 5.3%.

A Moody’s team led by Brendan Holmes prepared the reinsurance table for a global reinsurance market review.

The team did not include premium rankings for the new, alternative capital-backed reinsurers, such as Athene.

Life reinsurance accounted for 34.5% of the reinsurance premiums included in the Moody’s report table for 2018, up from 34.3% in 2017.
