Peer comment(s):

neutral Kim Metzger : Nice definitions of earmark, but I'd say you're really going out on a limb with no definition of ausreserviert and an incomplete sentence.

Quit harrassing me. If you have a better idea, give one. If you have any concrete argument against my answer, give it. Otherwise, stop following me around with your inane comments.

booked out (to xxx if reinsurers) the policies (called xxx)

I can't work if xxx is the dative or the policy names, nor where the company stands in the reinsurance chain> lead or sub-underwriter.

In Austria, ausreserviert also means ausgebucht i.e. booked up.
