Longevity

Reinsurance that removes longevity risk for insurers and pension scheme trustees, providing clients with certainty and security.

Longevity reinsurance has become a core part of Munich Re’s Life business in the UK. The longevity team has secured and overseen a number of significant longevity transactions in the UK, but also oversees the global reinsurance mandate for longevity and are responsible for Munich Re’s overall approach to reinsuring longevity risk, across all markets and jurisdictions.

At Munich Re, we believe the key to successfully executing a longevity transaction is the combination of specialised knowledge, including actuarial, risk, legal and operational functions, along with strong project management. Our guiding philosophy, both for transacting new deals and managing in-force transactions, is to uphold the highest technical standards, while at the same time being pragmatic, solution-orientated and collaborative.
