# Risk register

Cover Re SPC Ltd. maintains an extensive risk register: a ledger of known risks, who owns them, what action is being taken on each (avoid, mitigate, or transfer), and how likely and how severe each is. The register is reviewed on a regular cadence to catch new risks as they emerge and to retire ones that no longer apply.

For a pure reinsurance operation, the categories on the register are well established: asset and market risk, interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk, credit and counterparty risk, underwriting risk, reserve risk, catastrophe risk, and operational risk. Underwriting risk and catastrophe risk are typically the largest of these. Operational risk tends to be small.

Re's structure adds a second layer. Because the protocol issues yield-bearing stablecoins backed by collateral that sits behind the reinsurance contracts, the register also covers risks specific to a DeFi-native issuer: smart contract risk, custody and chain-of-control risk, infrastructure and security risk, and the integrity of the data feeds the protocol relies on. These sit alongside the reinsurance categories rather than replacing them.
