Pmc Re S.a.l

What Pmc Re S.a.l does

PMC RE S.a.l is a privately held reinsurance brokerage incorporated as a Lebanese joint-stock company (Société Anonyme Libanaise) in Beirut, founded in 2001 by Georges Ferzli. The firm operates as an intermediary placing facultative and treaty reinsurance on behalf of insurance company clients, with stated coverage spanning Lebanon and part of the Gulf region (including Saudi Arabia). Its product surface is broad by brokerage standards: facultative lines cover Property All Risks, Marine, Aviation, Cyber, Professional Indemnity, D&O, Political Violence, Energy, Specie/Fine Art, Clinical Trial Liability, and Contingency, while treaty lines span Property, Marine Cargo/Hull, Casualty, Motor, Travel, Medical, Life, Engineering, Catastrophe, and Extended Warranty.

Revenue mechanics are commission-based: PMC RE earns transaction fees on placements and is paid by connecting cedents to a panel of top-rated reinsurers, without exclusive obligation to any single carrier. The go-to-market is direct enterprise sales — the firm works face-to-face with insurance company clients on program design, technical assistance, and claims handling rather than through digital channels or aggregators. Operations are run by a small team of approximately eight named professionals, supported by external auditor, legal counsel, and banking relationships (including Bank Audi Suisse and Societe Generale Cyprus). No technology platform, AI tooling, or funding history is disclosed; the company's stated competitive basis is its founder's 40+ years of industry experience, independence from any single reinsurer, and a 20+ year track record of claims settlement with no lawsuits filed against the firm.
