Portuguese term or phrase: CESSÃO/CEDER (in this context)
"A RESSEGURADA compromete-se a ceder e a RESSEGURADORA obriga-se a aceitar e a garantir, com obediência às disposições deste contrato, os riscos que resultem do seguro de Assistência contratado pela RESSEGURADA com os seus Segurados, de acordo com as Condições Gerais, Especiais e Particulares, que se juntam em anexo e que se consideram como fazendo parte integrante deste contrato."
...
"EXTENSÃO DA CESSÃO

As cessões efectuar-se-ão de acordo com as Condições Especiais e Particulares das apólices emitidas pela RESSEGURADA a favor dos seus Segurados."
In this specific case, is "assignment" the best translation, or does this refer to the granting of insurance cover?

assignment/to assign
Explanation:
It remains assignment Aoife, can't be granting as ceder implies a transfer of sorts (in this case of rights).
