FSR, i am skeptical of Bermuda reinsurers. It very hard to tell the difference between the good ones and the bad ones before they go out of business <g>. For an reinsurance company it is easy to make numbers that appear good but we won't know the real liabilities until much later. I have much more confidence in diversified insurers with a longer track record like SwissRe.

Back into reinsurer FSR.

Possible risks with Bermuda insurers have been mentioned here before by Spekulatius. I like FSR because it goes for below stated bv, and I am hoping that its being run by Mark Byrne, son of White Mountain's Jack Byrne, is a positive.
