OverridePortfolioLayers Method

Updates the terms of one or more reinsurance treaties (or Layers) in a Touchstone Re Portfolio for subsequent portfolio loss analyses.

When you create a reinsurance treaty (or Layer) in a Reinsurance Program, you specify values such as Participation 3 for the layer. When you create a portfolio, you can optionally specify new layer values that apply only during portfolio loss analyses.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
            
class SnippetPortfolioAPIs
{
    private static void OverridePortfolioLayers(int businessUnitSid, int sqlInstanceSid, int portfolioSid, int layerSid)
    {
        ReinsurancePortfolioManagementServiceClient client = new ReinsurancePortfolioManagementServiceClient();
            
        OverridePortfolioLayersRequest request = new OverridePortfolioLayersRequest();
        //Set the BusinessUnitSid property (required property)
        request.BusinessUnitSid = businessUnitSid;
        //Set the SqlInstanceSid property (required property)
        request.SqlInstanceSid = sqlInstanceSid;
        //Set the PortfolioSid property. (required property)
        request.PortfolioSid = portfolioSid;
        //Set the LayerOverrides property. (required property)
        request.LayerOverrides = new List<AIR.Services.Reinsurance.PortfolioManagement.Data.LayerOverride>()
            {
                new AIR.Services.Reinsurance.PortfolioManagement.Data.LayerOverride()
                {
                    InvestmentAmount = 15,
                    LayerSid = layerSid,
                    Participation3 = 20,
                    Participation4 = 25,
                    ParticipationGross = 35,
                    ParticipationNet = 45,
                    PercentAnnualSpread = 18,
                    Premium = 99,
                    PrincipalAmount = 60,
                    ReinstatementPremium = 85
                }
           };
        //Submit the request and get response back
        OverridePortfolioLayersResponse response = client.OverridePortfolioLayers(request);
        //Validate the response.Response is valid if Response.Status.Code is equal to StatusCode.Success
        if (response.Status.Code == StatusCode.Success)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Portfolio Layer Override complete");
