  Key Concepts: 
  Indirect coinsurance is a feature of the SAP FS-PM Policy Management component that allows insurers to manage their risk exposure by sharing it with other insurers. This is done by creating a reinsurance agreement between the two insurers, where one insurer agrees to take on a portion of the other insurer’s risk. The insurer taking on the risk is known as the “coinsurer”, while the insurer sharing the risk is known as the “indirect coinsurer”. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to use indirect coinsurance, insurers must first create a reinsurance agreement between themselves and the indirect coinsurer. This agreement should specify the terms of the arrangement, such as how much risk each party will take on and how much each party will be paid for taking on that risk. Once this agreement is in place, insurers can then use the FS-PM Policy Management component to manage their risk exposure by setting up indirect coinsurance agreements with other insurers. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up an indirect coinsurance agreement, it is important to ensure that both parties are aware of their obligations and responsibilities under the agreement. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all parties are aware of any changes or updates to the agreement in order to avoid any misunderstandings or disputes.
