Abstract

L'invention concerne un système de compensation et de règlement d'opérations de gestion des risques mis en oeuvre sur un système automatisé utilisé par une pluralité d'utilisateurs, permettant une interaction dynamique entre acheteurs et vendeurs. Le système décrit dans cette invention permet d'assurer la confidentialité et la prise de décision efficace concernant les produits de réassurance. Un premier utilisateur puis un second utilisateur sont authentifiés ((502) et (504)) de manière à pouvoir accéder au système de compensation et de négociation des risques. Le premier utilisateur authentifié peut créer un report (506) auquel est attribué un identifiant de report. Le second utilisateur authentifié peut lire les reports (508). Une réponse à une communication ou à un message peut être produite (510) et un utilisateur authentifié peut décider de l'anonymat de la réponse (512). Si la réponse n'est pas anonyme, un courrier électronique classique est alors envoyé (514). Si la réponse est anonyme, une identité anonyme est attribuée (516) et le message anonyme est alors envoyé (518). La réponse est ensuite lue (520).
