KBRA releases a report which notes that the global life reinsurance landscape is one of exciting growth that is also tempered by a healthy dose of caution. While it appears that the excess mortality experienced during the pandemic has subsided, growth in asset-intensive reinsurance continues to accelerate which, we believe, is unlocking substantial pools of capital seeking attractive, uncorrelated returns to better address the retirement savings gap. Further, as the retirement savings gap is fueling new business volumes for primary insurers and, in turn, driving demand for asset-intensive (e.g., annuity) reinsurance across geographies, KBRA views this as a global phenomenon, with Bermuda playing a particularly prominent role.
