"Powered by the complementary and industry-leading capabilities of RGA and RenaissanceRe, Langhorne Re is uniquely positioned to provide competitive and flexible solutions that expand RGA's existing client offerings."
Aditya Dutt, president, Renaissance Underwriting Managers, added: "RenaissanceRe's experience with managing third party capital and sophisticated risk management combined with RGA's experience in the life market make this a very attractive partnership. As a result, we expect both clients and policyholders will benefit from our long-term approach and track record of capital stewardship."
