Import Exposures from CEDE Databases

Import > Exposure > CEDE Databases

Clients can now import aggregated exposure data from CEDE databases into Touchstone Re company Exposure Sets. This feature enables clients who license Touchstone Re, but not Touchstone Detailed Loss Analysis, the ability to take advantage of detailed CEDE company exposure data that they may receive in reinsurance submissions when UNICEDE/2 and/or CLF files are not available. The detailed exposure information in the CEDE is aggregated to a resolution that Touchstone Re's aggregate exposure modeling capabilities can use.
