       Disadvantages to Reinsurer:
       Normally, any ceding company resorts to facultative
       reinsurance only for risks which it is not able to
       accommodate in its Treaty arrangements. Hence, the
       Reinsurer, because of other trading connections, may
       be obliged to accept a facultative offer with high loss
       potential.

       Advantages to the ceding company / reinsured /
       insurer :
       i. Increase in gross underwriting capacity,
       ii. Ready market for risks of indifferent quality

       Disadvantages to the ceding company / reinsured /
       insurer :
       i. High administrative costs,
       ii. Time consuming procedure.
       iii. Ceding company cannot assume risk and later

             cannot alter policy conditions, without concurrence
             of reinsurer.
       iv) Risk of omitting to place reinsurance and omission
             to renew.
