CBR means those re-insurers that do not have any physical presence in India and do re-insurance business with Indian insurance/re-insurance companies.

The regulator said the CBR planning to write re-insurance business should file its information sheet before transacting re-insurance business with any of the Indian insurance/re-insurance firms for the financial year. It said insurers have to do due diligence, scrutinise documents and ensure compliance with the criteria prescribed in these rules Himanshu Tiwari Astrologer Blog
