title = "Follow the Fortunes"

content = """
The follow the fortunes (or follow the settlements) doctrine requires reinsurers to follow the cedent's good-faith settlement decisions. It supports efficient claims handling.

**Principle:** If the cedent settles a claim in good faith within policy terms, the reinsurer follows that settlement and pays its share. The reinsurer cannot second-guess reasonable settlement decisions.

**Limits:** Follow the fortunes does not obligate the reinsurer to follow fraudulent, collusive, or clearly unreasonable settlements. The reinsurer's obligation is to the contract, not to bad-faith conduct.

**Practical Impact:** Cedents can settle claims without awaiting reinsurer approval on each detail. Reinsurers rely on cedents' professionalism and reserve the right to challenge clear breaches.
