ECGC Net Retention Ratio
81.9%
Q1 FY26-27
ECGC's net retention ratio was 81.9% for Q1 FY26-27, as reported in IRDAI form NL-20-ANALYTICAL-RATIOS.
What this measures
Net Written Premium as a percentage of Gross Written Premium. Measures how much of the premium volume the insurer retains after ceding to reinsurers. A ratio near 100% means the insurer keeps most risk; a low ratio reflects heavy reinsurance dependence. Neither extreme is categorically better — appropriate retention depends on the insurer's capital position and line of business.
Note: NL-20 analytical ratios. Do not rank without context — a reinsurance-heavy strategy (low retention) may be prudent for catastrophe-exposed lines.
