Boussard & Gavaudan Investment Management LLP (BGIM) increased CCR Re’s Property Cat risks underwriting capacity on a worldwide basis. This third compartment strengthens the relationship with BGIM as reference investor which, for the third consecutive year, renewed their confidence in CCR Re and its underwriting policy.
At the initiative of all stakeholders, 157 Re 21 innovates with a Responsible Investment approach by investing all the sidecar assets in bonds issued by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD). This is the first time that a sidecar uses EBRD bonds. 157 Re thus aims to progressively fulfil the largest possible number of ESG criteria.
Sponsor of 157 Re, CCR Re benefited from the support of its investors, the expertise of Willis Re Securities (acting as structuring and placing agent), France Titrisation (acting as management company), BNP Paribas Securities Services (acting as custodian bank) and Linklaters acting as transaction counsel.
Bertrand Labilloy, Chairman & Chief Executive Officer of CCR Re, comments : «we welcome the renewal and evolution of 157 Re as part of CCR Re’s development that demonstrate again its innovative spirit.»
