REINSURANCE GROUP OF AMERICA, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Business
Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated (“RGA”) is an insurance holding company that was formed on December 31, 1992. RGA and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is engaged in providing traditional reinsurance, which includes individual and group life and health, disability and critical illness reinsurance. The Company also provides financial solutions, which includes longevity reinsurance, asset-intensive products (primarily annuities), financial reinsurance, capital solutions and stable value products.
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2023 (the “2022 Annual Report”).
In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023.
Consolidation
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of RGA and its subsidiaries and all intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Entities in which the Company has significant influence over the operating and financing decisions but are not required to be consolidated are reported under the equity method of accounting.
Standards Issued and Implemented
In the first quarter of 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”): ASU 2018-12, Financial Services – Insurance (Topic 944): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts (“ASU 2018-12”). ASU 2018-12 updates certain requirements for the accounting for long-duration insurance contracts.
Cash flow assumptions and measuring liability for future policy benefits – ASU 2018-12 requires the Company to review its cash flow assumptions at least annually and update, if necessary, with the impact recognized in net income in the period of the change. The liability for future policy benefits includes required adjustments at the cohort level to cap the net premium ratio at 100% and eliminate negative reserves.
Upon adoption, an adjustment was recorded to retained earnings as a result of capping the net premium ratio at 100% and eliminating negative reserves on certain issue year cohorts.
Discount rate – The discount rate assumption is prescribed by ASU 2018-12 as an upper-medium (low credit risk) fixed-income yield and is required to be updated every quarter. The change in the liability as a result of updating the discount rate assumption is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”).
Upon adoption, an adjustment was recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) as a result of remeasuring in force contract liabilities using the current upper-medium grade fixed income instrument yields as of the date of transition. The adjustment reflects the difference between discount rates locked-in at contract inception versus current discount rates at transition.
Deferred policy acquisition costs and similar balances – Deferred policy acquisition costs (“DAC”) and other capitalized costs such as unearned revenue should be amortized on a constant level or straight-line basis over the expected term of the contracts.
Upon adoption, an adjustment was recorded to AOCI for the removal of cumulative adjustments to DAC associated with unrealized investment gains and losses previously recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
Market risk benefits – Market risk benefits, which are contracts or contract features that provide protection to the policyholder from capital market risk and expose the Company to other-than-nominal capital market risk, are

Table of Contents

measured at fair value. The periodic change in fair value is recognized in net income with the exception of the periodic change in fair value related to the liability’s instrument-specific credit risk, which is recognized in OCI.
Upon adoption, an adjustment was recorded to retained earnings for the difference between the fair value and carrying value of the contracts at the transition date, excluding changes in the instrument-specific credit risks, and an adjustment to AOCI for the cumulative effect of changes in the instrument-specific credit risk between contract issue date and transition date.
Change in Certain Segment Allocations
Investment income for each segment has been adjusted to reflect the impacts of adopting ASU 2018-12 and due to an update to the Company’s internally developed economic capital model. Internal excess capital charges, included in each segment’s policy acquisition costs and other insurance expenses, were also updated as a result of adopting ASU 2018-12 and updates to the Company’s internally developed economic capital model. These changes did not impact the recognition or presentation of investment income or policy acquisition costs and other insurance expenses in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Significant Accounting Polices Update
The Company’s significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2 – “Significant Accounting Policies and Pronouncements” of the 2022 Annual Report. The significant accounting policies discussed below have been updated to reflect the impact of adopting ASU 2018-12.
Liability for Future Policy Benefits
Utilizing the net premium model, a liability for future policy benefits for life and long-term health business is established to meet the estimated future benefits to be paid on assumed life and health reinsurance in force less the present value of estimated future new premiums to be collected. The liability is estimated using the Company’s mortality, morbidity, and persistency assumptions that reflect the Company’s historical experience, industry data, cedant specific experience, and discount rates based on the current yields of upper-medium grade fixed income instruments. These assumptions vary with the characteristics of the reinsurance contract, the year the risk was assumed, age of the insured and other appropriate factors. The Company reviews actual and anticipated experience compared to the assumptions used to establish policy benefits on a quarterly basis and will update those assumptions if evidence suggests that they should be revised. The Company expects to complete its annual review and any necessary updates of cash flow assumptions used to calculate the liability for future policy benefits during the third quarter of each year. Updates may occur in other quarters if information becomes available during the quarter that indicates an assumption update is necessary.
Liabilities for future benefits for annuities in the payout phase have been established in an amount adequate to meet the estimated future obligations on policies in force using expected mortality, discount rates and other assumptions. These assumptions vary with the characteristics of the plan of insurance, year of issue, age of insured, and other appropriate factors. The mortality assumptions are based on the Company’s historical experience, industry data and cedant specific experience.
A deferred profit liability is established when the insurance benefit extends beyond the period in which premiums are collected, and the gross premium exceeds the net premium. The deferred profit liability is amortized in proportion to insurance in force for traditional life insurance and expected future benefits for annuity contracts. The deferred profit liability is included in the liabilities for future policy benefits, and the amortization of the deferred profit liability is recognized as a reduction in claims and other policy benefits.
For the purpose of calculating the liability for future policy benefits, the Company’s reinsurance contracts for its Traditional business are grouped into annual cohorts based on the effective date of the reinsurance contract. The annual groupings are further disaggregated based on:
How the reinsurance contracts are priced and managed;
Geographical locations;
Underlying currency of the contract;
Ceding company and other factors.
Given the unique risks and highly customized nature of the Company’s financial solutions business, reinsurance contracts for the Financial Solutions business are not aggregated with other contracts for the purpose of calculating the liability for future policy benefits.
Each quarter, the Company updates its estimate of cash flows expected over the entire life of a group of contracts using actual historical experience and current future cash flow assumptions. These updated cash flows, discounted using the original contract issuance discount rates, are used to calculate the revised net premium ratio, as of the beginning of the current reporting period. The present value of these updated cash flows is compared to the carrying amount of the liability as of that same date, before updating cash flow assumptions, to determine the current period change in the liability’s estimate. This current period change in the liability is a component of the liability remeasurement gain or loss. In subsequent periods, the revised net
9

Table of Contents

premium ratio is used to measure the liability for future policy benefits, subject to future revisions. The Company also reviews actual and anticipated experience compared to the assumptions used to establish the liability for future policy benefits on a quarterly basis. If evidence suggests that the assumptions should be revised, the cumulative effect of the change is reflected in future policy benefits remeasurement (gains) losses in the current period. The Company has elected to lock-in claims expense assumptions at contract inception and those assumptions are not subsequently reviewed or updated.
The discount rates used to measure the liability are based on upper-medium grade fixed-income instruments (A rated credit) with similar tenor to the expected liability cash flows. The discount rate assumption is updated quarterly and used to remeasure the liability at the reporting date, with the resulting change reflected in other comprehensive income (loss). For unobservable discount rates, the Company uses estimates consistent with fair value guidance, maximizing the use of relevant, observable market prices and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.
The Company utilizes the discount rate curve at contract inception for purposes of interest accretion and updating the net premium ratio. Interest accretion is recognized in claims and other policy benefits on the condensed consolidated statements of income. The locked-in discount curve at contract inception for contracts entered into after the adoption of ASU 2018-12 (i.e., January 1, 2021 and after) is based on the average upper-medium grade fixed-income instrument yields during the first calendar year of the reinsurance contract. The locked-in discount rates at contract inception for contracts that were effective prior to the adoption of ASU 2018-12 (i.e., prior to January 1, 2021) are the discount rate assumptions used prior to the adoption of ASU 2018-12, which were based on estimates of expected investment yields.
Included in the liability for future policy benefits are unpaid claims related to long-duration contracts and an accrual for incurred but not reported losses (“IBNR”). The Company’s IBNR accrual related to long-duration contracts is determined using case-basis estimates and lag studies of past experience. The time lag from the date of the claim or death to when the ceding company reports the claim to the Company can vary significantly by ceding company, business segment and product type, but generally averages around 3 months. Incurred but not reported claims are estimates on an undiscounted basis, using actuarial estimates of historical claims expense, adjusted for current trends and conditions. These estimates are continually reviewed and the ultimate liability may vary significantly from the amount recognized. Claims payable for incurred but not reported losses for long-duration contracts are included in the liability for future policy benefits on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2018-12, unpaid claims and IBNR related to long-duration contracts were included in other policy claims and benefits. Upon adoption of ASU 2018-12, the Company revised prior period amounts to conform to the current period’s presentation. See Note 2 – “Impact of New Accounting Standard” for additional information.
Interest-Sensitive Contract Liabilities and Policyholder Account Balances
Liabilities for future benefits on interest-sensitive life and investment-type contract liabilities are carried at the accumulated contract holder values without reduction for potential surrender or withdrawal charges. The Company reinsures asset-intensive products, including annuities and corporate-owned life insurance. The investment portfolios for these products are segregated for management purposes within the general account of the respective legal entity. The liabilities under asset-intensive insurance contracts or reinsurance contracts reinsured on a coinsurance basis are included in interest-sensitive contract liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Asset-intensive contracts principally include individual fixed annuities in the accumulation phase, single premium immediate annuities, with no significant life contingency, equity-indexed annuities, individual variable annuities, corporate-owned life, and interest-sensitive whole life insurance contracts. Interest-sensitive contract liabilities are equal to (i) policy account values, which consist of an accumulation of gross premium payments; (ii) credited interest less expenses, mortality charges, and withdrawals; and (iii) fair value adjustments relating to business combinations. Liabilities for immediate annuities are calculated as the present value of the expected cash flows, with the locked-in discount rate determined such that there is no gain or loss at inception.
Equity-indexed annuity contracts reinsured by the Company allow the contract holder to elect an interest rate return or an equity market component where interest credited is based on the performance of common stock market indices, such as the S&P 500 Index®, the Dow Jones Industrial Average, or the NASDAQ. The equity market option is considered an embedded derivative, similar to a call option, which is reflected at fair value on the condensed consolidated balance sheets in interest-sensitive contract liabilities. The fair value of embedded derivatives is computed based on a projection of future equity option costs using a budget methodology, discounted back to the balance sheet date using current market indicators of volatility and interest rates. Changes in the fair value of the embedded derivatives are included as a component of interest credited on the condensed consolidated statements of income (loss).
The Company reviews its estimates of actuarial liabilities for interest-sensitive contract liabilities and compares them with its actual experience. Differences between actual experience and the assumptions used in pricing these guarantees and benefits and in the establishment of the related liabilities result in variances in profit and could result in losses. The effects of changes in such estimated liabilities are included in the results of operations in the period in which the changes occur.
Market Risk Benefits
10

Table of Contents

Market risk benefits are contracts or contract features that both provide protection to the contract holder from other-than-nominal capital market risk and expose the Company to other-than-nominal capital market risk. Market risk benefits are measured at fair value using an option-based valuation model based on current net amounts at risk, market data, Company experience, and other factors. Changes in fair value are recognized in net income each period with the exception of the portion of the change in fair value due to a change in the liability’s instrument-specific credit risk, which is recognized in other comprehensive income.
Market risk benefits include the following contract features on certain annuity products that provide minimum guarantees to policyholders:
Guaranteed minimum income benefits (“GMIB”) provide the contract holder, after a specified period of time determined at the time of issuance of the variable annuity contract, with a minimum level of income (annuity) payments. Under the reinsurance treaty, the Company makes a payment to the ceding company equal to the GMIB net amount-at-risk at the time of annuitization.
Guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefits (“GMWB”) guarantee the contract holder a return of their purchase payment via partial withdrawals, even if the account value is reduced to zero, provided that the contract holder’s cumulative withdrawals in a contract year do not exceed a certain limit. The initial guaranteed withdrawal amount is equal to the initial benefit base as defined in the contract (typically, the initial purchase payments plus applicable bonus amounts).
Guaranteed minimum accumulation benefits (“GMAB”) provide the contract holder, after a specified period of time determined at the time of issuance of the variable annuity contract, with a minimum accumulation of their purchase payments even if the account value is reduced to zero. The initial guaranteed accumulation amount is equal to the initial benefit base as defined in the contract (typically, the initial purchase payments plus applicable bonus amounts).
Guaranteed minimum death benefits (“GMDB”) provides the beneficiary a guaranteed minimum amount upon the death of the contract holder, regardless of the account balance.
The fair values of the GMIB, GMWB, GMDB and GMAB contract features are reflected in market risk benefits and are calculated based on actuarial and capital market assumptions related to the projected cash flows, including benefits and related contract charges over the lives of the contracts. These projected cash flows incorporate expectations concerning policyholder behavior, such as lapses, withdrawals and benefit selections, and capital market assumptions such as interest rates and equity market volatilities. In measuring the fair value of GMIBs, GMWBs, GMABs and GMDBs, the Company attributes a portion of the fees collected from the policyholder equal to the present value of expected future guaranteed minimum income, withdrawal and accumulation and death benefits (at inception). The changes in fair value are reported in market risk benefits remeasurement (gains) losses. Any additional fees represent “excess” fees and are reported in other revenues. These variable annuity guaranteed living and death benefits may be more costly than expected in volatile or declining equity markets or falling interest rate markets, causing an increase in market risk benefit liabilities.
Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs
Costs of acquiring new business, which vary with and are directly related to the production of new business, have been deferred to the extent that such costs are deemed recoverable from future premiums or gross profits. Such costs include commissions and allowances as well as certain costs of policy issuance and underwriting. Non-commission costs related to the acquisition of new and renewal insurance contracts may be deferred only if they meet the following criteria:
Incremental direct costs of a successful contract acquisition
Portions of employees’ salaries and benefits directly related to time spent performing specified acquisition activities for a contract that has been acquired or renewed
Other costs directly related to the specified acquisition or renewal activities that would not have been incurred had that acquisition contract transaction not occurred
DAC related to traditional life and interest-sensitive contracts are grouped by contract type and issue year into cohorts for consistency with the groupings used in estimating the associated liability. DAC is amortized on a constant level basis for the grouped contracts over the expected term of the related contracts to approximate straight-line amortization. The constant level basis used is based on the number of policies or policy face amount of the risk assumed in the reinsurance contract. The constant level bases used for amortization are projected using mortality and actuarial assumptions for policyholder behavior that are based on the Company’s experience, industry data and other factors and are consistent with those used for the liability for future policy benefits. Changes in assumptions are reflected in DAC amortization prospectively, and actual experience relating to number of policies reinsured will likely differ from the experience previously estimated.
Amortization of DAC is included in policy acquisition costs and other insurance expenses.

Reinsurance Ceded Receivables
The Company generally reports retrocession activity on a gross basis. Amounts paid or deemed to have been paid for reinsurance are reflected in reinsurance ceded receivables and other. Reinsurance ceded receivables related to long-duration contracts are estimated using mortality, morbidity, and persistency assumptions that are similar to the liability for future policy benefits ceded. The discount rate used to measure the ceded receivable is based on the current yields of an upper-medium grade fixed income instrument. Similar to the liability for future policy benefits, ceded receivables are grouped into annual cohorts based on the effective date of the reinsurance contract.
NOTE 2 IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARD
As discussed in Note 1, the Company adopted ASU 2018-12 during the first quarter of 2023. The updated guidance materially changed how the Company accounts for its long-duration insurance contracts. Below is a summary of the impact of adopting ASU 2018-12:
For the liability for future policy benefits, the net transition adjustment recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is related to the difference in the discount rate used prior to the adoption of ASU 2018-12 and the discount rate at January 1, 2021, and the removal of shadow adjustments previously recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the impact of unrealized gains and losses that were included in the expected gross profits amortization calculation as of the transition date of $8,593 million, pretax.
At transition, the Company identified certain cohorts in its Traditional segments where the present value of future expected benefits and expenses exceeded the sum of existing benefit reserve and the present value of future gross premiums, resulting in a decrease to retained earnings, net of reinsurance (and a corresponding increase in the liabilities for future policy benefits and reinsurance recoverable) of approximately $1,462 million, pretax. See “Impact of Adoption by Segment” for the transition impact by reportable segment.
At transition, the Company identified certain cohorts, primarily longevity swaps, where the present value of future premiums exceeded the present value of future benefits resulting in a negative liability. The elimination of the negative liability at transition resulted in a decrease to retained earnings (and a corresponding increase in the liabilities for future policy benefits) of $284 million, pretax. See “Impact of Adoption by Segment” for the transition impact by reportable segment.
For DAC, the Company removed shadow adjustments previously recorded in AOCI in the amount of $114 million, pretax, for the impact of unrealized gains and losses that were included in the pre-ASU 2018-12 expected gross profits amortization calculation as of the transition date. See “Impact of Adoption by Segment” for the transition impact by reportable segment.
For market risk benefits, the transition adjustment of $45 million, pretax, recognized in AOCI relates to the cumulative effect of changes in the instrument-specific credit risk between contract issue date and transition date. The remaining difference of $(72) million, pretax between the fair value and carrying value of the market risk benefits at transition, excluding the amounts recorded in AOCI, was recorded as an adjustment to retained earnings as of the transition date. See “Impact of Adoption by Segment” for the transition impact by reportable segment.

The calculation of common equivalent shares does not include the impact of stock awards with a conversion price that exceeds the average stock price for the earnings period as the result would be antidilutive. The calculation of common equivalent shares also excludes the impact of outstanding performance contingent awards as the conditions necessary for their issuance have not been satisfied as of the end of the reporting period.

The Company reviews actual and anticipated experience compared to the assumptions used to establish policy benefits on a quarterly basis and will update those assumptions if evidence suggests that they should be revised. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, there were no material changes to the Traditional business assumptions. The Company expects to complete its annual review and any necessary updates of cash flow assumptions used to calculate the liability for future policy benefits during the third quarter of each year. Updates may occur in other quarters if information becomes available during the quarter that indicates an assumption update is necessary.
The following tables provide the balances of and changes in the Company’s liability for future policy benefits for long-duration reinsurance contracts for its Traditional business, which primarily consists of individual life, group life and critical illness reinsurance for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (dollars in millions):

Significant assumptions used to compute the liability for future policy benefits for the Traditional business include mortality, morbidity, lapse rates and discount rates (both accretion and current). The Company updated the underlying market data used to determine the current discount rate resulting in changes to the discount rate assumption used to measure the net liability for future policy benefits each period. The Company’s Traditional business actual-to-expected variances and the effects of changes in discount rate assumption for the six months ending June 30, 2023 and 2022, are summarized in the tables below:

The Company reviews actual and anticipated experience compared to the assumptions used to establish policy benefits on a quarterly basis and will update those assumptions if evidence suggests that they should be revised. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, there were no material changes to the Financial Solutions business assumptions. The Company expects to complete its annual review and any necessary updates of cash flow assumptions used to calculate the liability for future policy benefits during the third quarter of each year. Updates may occur in other quarters if information becomes available during the quarter that indicates an assumption update is necessary.
The following tables provide the balances of and changes in the Company’s liability for future policy benefits, including the deferred profit liability related to the longevity business, for its Financial Solutions business, which primarily consists of longevity reinsurance, asset-intensive products, primarily annuities and financial reinsurance for the six months ending June 30, 2023 and 2022 (dollars in millions):

Incurred claims associated with prior periods are primarily due to the development of short-duration business claims for prior years being different than were anticipated when the liabilities for unpaid claims were originally estimated.  These trends have been considered in establishing the current year liability for unpaid claims.

Fair Value Measurement
See Note 13 – “Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities” for information about fair value measurement of assets and liabilities, except for market risk benefits.
Market risk benefits are classified within Level 3 on the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of market risk benefits is monitored through the use of attribution reports to quantify the effect of underlying sources of fair value change, including capital market inputs based on policyholder account values, interest rates and short-term and long-term implied volatility from period to period.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were no material changes made to the inputs in the market risk benefit calculations, and nonfinancial assumptions were unchanged.

NOTE 10 REINSURANCE CEDED RECEIVABLES AND OTHER
Retrocession reinsurance treaties do not relieve the Company from its obligations to direct writing companies. Failure of retrocessionaires to honor their obligations could result in losses to the Company. Consequently, allowances would be established for amounts deemed uncollectible. The Company regularly evaluates the financial condition of the insurance companies from which it assumes and to which it cedes reinsurance. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, no allowances were deemed necessary.
Two major reinsurance companies account for approximately 77% of reinsurance ceded receivables and other as of June 30, 2023. Retrocessions are arranged through the Company’s retrocession pools for amounts in excess of the Company’s retention limit. As of June 30, 2023, all rated retrocession pool participants followed by the A.M. Best Company were rated “A- (excellent)” or better. The Company verifies retrocession pool participants’ ratings on a quarterly basis. For a majority of the retrocessionaires that were not rated, security in the form of letters of credit or trust assets have been posted. In addition, the Company performs annual financial reviews of its retrocessionaires to evaluate financial stability and performance.
Included in the total reinsurance ceded receivables and other balance are $157 million and $183 million of claims recoverable, of which $12 million and $16 million were in excess of 90 days past due, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Also included in the total reinsurance ceded receivable and other is a deposit asset on reinsurance of $1.5 billion and $1.6 billion as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Allowance for Credit Losses and Impairments Fixed Maturity Securities Available-for-Sale
As discussed in Note 2 – “Significant Accounting Policies and Pronouncements” of the Company’s 2022 Annual Report, allowances for credit losses on fixed maturity securities are recognized in investment related gains (losses), net. The amount recognized represents the difference between the amortized cost of the security and the net present value of its projected future cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate implicit in the fixed maturity security prior to the allowance for credit losses. Any remaining difference between the fair value and amortized cost is recognized in OCI.
The following tables present the rollforward of the allowance for credit losses in fixed maturity securities by type for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (dollars in millions):

Unrealized Losses for Fixed Maturity Securities Available-for-Sale
The Company’s determination of whether a decline in value necessitates the recording of an allowance for credit losses includes an analysis of whether the issuer is current on its contractual payments, evaluating whether it is probable that the Company will be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the security and analyzing the overall ability of the Company to recover the amortized cost of the investment.
The following tables present the estimated fair value and gross unrealized losses for the 6,456 and 6,441 fixed maturity securities for which an allowance for credit loss has not been recorded as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and the estimated fair value had declined and remained below amortized cost (dollars in millions). These investments are presented by class and grade of security, as well as the length of time the related fair value has continuously remained below amortized cost.

The Company did not intend to sell, and it was not more likely than not that it would be required to sell, the securities outlined in the tables above, as of the dates indicated. However, unforeseen facts and circumstances may cause the Company to sell fixed maturity securities in the ordinary course of managing its portfolio to meet certain diversification, credit quality and liquidity guidelines. Changes in unrealized losses are primarily driven by changes in risk-free interest rates and credit spreads.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company modified two mortgage loans for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty providing interest only payments and a maturity extension. The total recorded investment before allowance for credit losses for the modified loans were $17 million as of June 30, 2023. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company restructured three mortgage loans to interest only payments, one of which was paid in full as of December 31, 2022. The total recorded investment before allowance for credit losses for mortgage loans that were modified and met the criteria of Troubled Debt Restructuring (“TDR”) was $77 million as of June 30, 2022.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company converted two mortgage loans in the total amount of $36 million to owned properties through foreclosure-type transactions. The Company had one mortgage loan in the amount of $7 million that was on a nonaccrual status as of June 30, 2023. The Company had no mortgage loans that were on a nonaccrual status as of June 30, 2022. The Company did not acquire any impaired mortgage loans during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
Policy Loans
The majority of policy loans are associated with one client. These policy loans present no credit risk as the amount of the loan cannot exceed the obligation due to the ceding company upon the death of the insured or surrender of the underlying policy. The provisions of the treaties in force and the underlying policies determine the policy loan interest rates. The Company earns a spread between the interest rate earned on policy loans and the interest rate credited to corresponding liabilities.
Funds Withheld at Interest
As of June 30, 2023, $3.6 billion of the funds withheld at interest balance is primarily associated with two clients. For reinsurance agreements written on a modco basis and certain agreements written on a coinsurance funds withheld basis, assets equal to the net statutory reserves are withheld and legally owned and managed by the ceding company and are reflected as funds withheld at interest. In the event of a ceding company’s insolvency, the Company would need to assert a claim on the assets supporting its reserve liabilities. However, the risk of loss to the Company is mitigated by its ability to offset amounts it owes the ceding company for claims or allowances against amounts owed to the Company from the ceding company.
Limited Partnerships and Real Estate Joint Ventures
The carrying values of limited partnerships and real estate joint ventures as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are as follows (dollars in millions):

Fair Value Hedges
The Company designates and reports certain foreign currency swaps to hedge the foreign currency fair value exposure of foreign currency denominated assets as fair value hedges when they meet the requirements of the general accounting principles for Derivatives and Hedging. The gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to a change in foreign currency and the offsetting gain or loss on the related foreign currency swaps as of June 30, 2023 and 2022 were as follows (dollars in millions):

Cash Flow Hedges
Certain derivative instruments are designated as cash flow hedges when they meet the requirements of the general accounting principles for Derivatives and Hedging. The Company designates and accounts for the following as cash flow hedges: (i) certain interest rate swaps, in which the cash flows of assets and liabilities are variable based on a benchmark rate; (ii) certain interest rate swaps, in which the cash flows of assets are denominated in different currencies, commonly referred to as cross-currency swaps; (iii) certain interest rate swaps, in which floating rate assets are converted to fixed rate assets; and (iv) forward bond purchase commitments.
The following table presents the components of AOCI, before income tax, and the condensed consolidated income statement classification where the gain or loss is recognized related to cash flow hedges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (dollars in millions):

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were no material amounts reclassified into earnings relating to instances in which the Company discontinued cash flow hedge accounting because the forecasted transaction did not occur by the anticipated date or within the additional time period permitted by the authoritative guidance for the accounting for derivatives and hedging.
Hedges of Net Investments in Foreign Operations
The Company uses foreign currency swaps and foreign currency forwards to hedge a portion of its net investment in certain foreign operations against adverse movements in exchange rates. The following table illustrates the Company’s net investments in foreign operations (“NIFO”) hedges and the gains (losses) deferred in OCI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (dollars in millions):

Foreign currency swaps$— $$— $
Foreign currency forwards(21)38 (21)22
Total$(21)$39 $(21)$23 
The cumulative foreign currency translation gain recorded in AOCI related to these hedges was $189 million and $210 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. If a hedged foreign operation was sold or substantially liquidated, the amounts in AOCI would be reclassified to the condensed consolidated statements of income. A pro rata portion would be reclassified upon partial sale of a hedged foreign operation. There were no sales or substantial liquidations of net investments in foreign operations that would have required the reclassification of gains or losses from AOCI into investment income during the periods presented.
Non-qualifying Derivatives and Derivatives for Purposes Other Than Hedging
The Company uses various other derivative instruments for risk management purposes that either do not qualify or have not been elected for hedge accounting treatment. The gain or loss related to the change in fair value for these derivative instruments is recognized in investment related gains (losses), net, except where otherwise noted.

(1)Includes initial margin posted to a central clearing partner for financial instruments and excludes the excess of collateral received/pledged from/to the counterparty.
The Company may be exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to derivative financial instruments. Generally, the credit exposure of the Company’s derivative contracts is limited to the fair value and accrued interest of non-collateralized derivative contracts in an asset position at the reporting date. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had credit exposure of $14 million.
Derivatives may be exchange-traded or they may be privately negotiated contracts, which are referred to as over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives. Certain of the Company’s OTC derivatives are cleared and settled through central clearing counterparties (“OTC cleared”) and others are bilateral contracts between two counterparties. The Company manages its credit risk related to OTC derivatives by entering into transactions with creditworthy counterparties, maintaining collateral arrangements and through the use of master netting agreements that provide for a single net payment to be made by one counterparty to another at each due date and upon termination. The Company is only exposed to the default of the central clearing counterparties for OTC cleared derivatives, and these transactions require initial and daily variation margin collateral postings. Exchange-traded derivatives are settled on a daily basis, thereby reducing the credit risk exposure in the event of non-performance by counterparties to such financial instruments.

NOTE 13 FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
Fair Value Measurement
General accounting principles for Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures define fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. These principles also establish a three-level fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Active markets are defined through various characteristics for the measured asset/liability, such as having many transactions and narrow bid/ask spreads.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or market standard valuation techniques and assumptions that use significant inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the related assets or liabilities and include those whose value is determined using market standard valuation techniques described above. Prices are determined using valuation methodologies such as discounted cash flow models and other similar techniques that require management’s judgment or estimation in developing inputs that are consistent with those other market participants would use when pricing similar assets and liabilities.
For a discussion of the Company’s valuation methodologies for assets and liabilities measured at fair value and the fair value hierarchy, see Note 6 – “Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report.
See Note 8 – “Market Risk Benefits” for information about fair value measurement of market risk benefits.

Changes in Level 3 Assets and Liabilities
Assets and liabilities transferred into Level 3 are due to a lack of observable market transactions and price information. Transfers out of Level 3 are primarily the result of the Company obtaining observable pricing information or a third-party pricing quotation that appropriately reflects the fair value of those assets and liabilities.
For further information on the Company’s valuation processes, see Note 6 – “Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report.
The reconciliations for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) are as follows (dollars in millions):

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements
The Company has certain assets subject to measurement at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, in periods subsequent to their initial recognition if they are determined to be impaired. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not have any material assets that were measured at fair value due to impairment.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments Carried at Other Than Fair Value
The following table presents the carrying values and estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments, which were not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (dollars in millions). For additional information regarding the methods and significant assumptions used by the Company to estimate these fair values, see Note 6 – “Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report. This table excludes any payables or receivables for collateral under repurchase/reverse repurchase agreements and other transactions. The estimated fair value of the excluded amount approximates carrying value as they equal the amount of cash collateral received/paid.

NOTE 14 INCOME TAX
On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“the Act”) was enacted in the U.S. The Act includes law changes relating to tax, climate change, energy and health care. In particular, for tax years ending after December 31, 2022, the Act imposes a 15% minimum tax on adjusted financial statement income for “applicable corporations” with average financial statement income exceeding $1 billion for the previous 3-year period ending in 2022 or after. Based on the current guidance, the Company is not an applicable corporation for 2023. The Act also imposes a 1% excise tax on stock buybacks of a publicly traded corporation. The Act is not expected to have a material impact to the Company’s tax expense.
The effective tax rate for the three and six months ending June 30, 2023, was 21.7% and 25.2% on pre-tax income. The tax rate differed from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to income earned in jurisdictions with tax rates greater than the U.S. statutory tax rate, and adjustments to the valuation allowance. These increases were partially offset with benefits received from tax credits generated during the year.
The effective tax rate for the three and six months ending June 30, 2022, was 27.7% and 26.8%. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, differed from the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily due to income in jurisdictions with tax rates higher than the U.S., tax basis adjustments, adjustments to the valuation allowance and foreign tax credits.

The Company anticipates that the majority of its current commitments will be invested over the next five years; however, these commitments could become due any time at the request of the counterparties. Bank loans and private placements are included in fixed maturity securities available-for-sale.
The Company has an immaterial liability, included in other liabilities, for expected credit losses associated with unfunded commitments as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Funding Agreements
Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines
The Company is a member of the FHLB and, through membership, has issued funding agreements to the FHLB in exchange for cash advances. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $1.3 billion of FHLB funding agreements outstanding. The Company is required to provide collateral in excess of the funding agreement amounts outstanding, considering any discounts to the securities posted and prepayment penalties.
Funding Agreement Backed Notes
The Company’s Funding Agreement Backed Notes (“FABN”) program allows RGA Global Funding, a special-purpose, unaffiliated statutory trust, to offer its senior secured medium-term notes to investors. RGA Global Funding uses the net proceeds from each sale to purchase one or more funding agreements from the Company. As of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $900 million of FABN agreements outstanding and are included within interest-sensitive contract liabilities.

Contingencies
Litigation
The Company is subject to litigation and regulatory investigations or actions from time to time. Based on current knowledge, management does not believe that loss contingencies arising from pending legal, regulatory and governmental matters will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. However, in light of the inherent uncertainties involved in future or pending legal, regulatory and governmental matters, some of which are beyond the Company’s control, and indeterminate or potentially substantial amount of damages sought in any such matters, an adverse outcome could be material to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows for any particular reporting period. A legal reserve is established when the Company is notified of an arbitration demand, litigation or regulatory action or is notified that an arbitration demand, litigation or regulatory action is imminent, it is probable that the Company will incur a loss as a result and the amount of the probable loss is reasonably capable of being estimated.
Other Contingencies
The Company indemnifies its directors and officers as provided in its charters and by-laws. Since this indemnity generally is not subject to limitation with respect to duration or amount, the Company does not believe that it is possible to determine the maximum potential amount due under this indemnity in the future.
Guarantees
Statutory Reserve Support
Certain RGA subsidiaries have committed to provide statutory reserve support to third parties, in exchange for a fee, by funding loans if certain defined events occur. Such statutory reserves are required under the U.S. Valuation of Life Policies Model Regulation (commonly referred to as Regulation XXX for term life insurance policies and Regulation A-XXX for universal life secondary guarantees). In addition, certain subsidiaries have also committed to provide capital support to a third party, in exchange for a fee, by agreeing to assume real estate leases in the event of a severe and prolonged decline in the commercial lease market. Upon assumption of a lease, the Company would recognize a right to use asset and lease obligation. As of June 30, 2023, the Company does not believe that it will be required to provide any funding under these commitments as the occurrence of the defined events is considered remote. The following table presents the maximum potential obligation for these commitments as of June 30, 2023 (dollars in millions):

NOTE 17 SEGMENT INFORMATION
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 2 – “Significant Accounting Policies and Pronouncements” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report. The Company measures segment performance primarily based on profit or loss from operations before income taxes. There are no intersegment reinsurance transactions and the Company does not have any material long-lived assets.
The Company allocates capital to its segments based on an internally developed economic capital model, the purpose of which is to measure the risk in the business and to provide a basis upon which capital is deployed. The economic capital model considers the unique and specific nature of the risks inherent in the Company’s businesses. As a result of the economic capital allocation process, a portion of investment income is attributed to the segments based on the level of allocated capital. In addition, the segments are charged for excess capital utilized above the allocated economic capital basis. This charge is included in policy acquisition costs and other insurance expenses.

Overview
The Company is among the leading global providers of life reinsurance and financial solutions, with $3.5 trillion of life reinsurance in force and assets of $89.0 billion as of June 30, 2023. Traditional reinsurance includes individual and group life and health, disability, and critical illness reinsurance. Financial Solutions includes longevity reinsurance, asset-intensive reinsurance, capital solutions, including financial reinsurance and stable value products. The Company derives revenues primarily from renewal premiums from existing reinsurance treaties, new business premiums from existing or new reinsurance treaties, fee income from Financial Solutions business and income earned on invested assets.
Historically, the Company’s primary business has been traditional life reinsurance, which involves reinsuring life insurance policies that are often in force for the remaining lifetime of the underlying individuals insured, with premiums earned typically over a period of 10 to 30 years. To a lesser extent, the Company also reinsures health business typically reinsured for one to three years. Each year, however, a portion of the business under existing treaties terminates due to, among other things, lapses or voluntary surrenders of underlying policies, deaths of insureds, and the exercise of recapture options by ceding companies. The Company has expanded its Financial Solutions business, including significant asset-intensive and longevity risk transactions, which allow its clients to take advantage of growth opportunities and manage their capital, longevity and investment risk.
For its traditional business, the Company’s profitability largely depends on the volume and amount of death- and health-related claims incurred and the ability to adequately price the risks it assumes. While death claims are reasonably predictable over a period of many years, claims become less predictable over shorter periods and are subject to significant fluctuation from quarter to quarter and year to year. For longevity business, the Company’s profitability depends on the lifespan of the underlying contract holders and the investment performance for certain contracts. Additionally, the Company generates profits on investment spreads associated with the reinsurance of investment type contracts and generates fees from financial reinsurance transactions, which are typically shorter duration than its traditional life reinsurance business. The Company believes its sources of liquidity are sufficient to cover potential claims payments on both a short-term and long-term basis.
As is customary in the reinsurance business, clients continually update, refine, and revise reinsurance information provided to the Company. Such revised information is used by the Company in preparation of its condensed consolidated financial statements and the financial effects resulting from the incorporation of revised data are reflected in the current period.
In the first quarter of 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”): ASU 2018-12, Financial Services – Insurance (Topic 944): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts (“ASU 2018-12”). ASU 2018-12 updates certain requirements for the accounting for long-duration insurance contracts. See Note 2 – “Impact of New Accounting Standard” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Segment Presentation
The Company has geographic-based and business-based operational segments. Geographic-based operations are further segmented into Traditional and Financial Solutions businesses. The Company allocates capital to its segments based on an internally developed economic capital model, the purpose of which is to measure the risk in the business and to provide a consistent basis upon which capital is deployed. The economic capital model considers the unique and specific nature of the risks inherent in RGA’s businesses.
As a result of the economic capital allocation process, a portion of investment income is credited to the segments based on the level of allocated capital. In addition, the segments are charged for excess capital utilized above the allocated economic capital basis. This charge is included in policy acquisition costs and other insurance expenses. Segment investment performance varies with the composition of investments and the relative allocation of capital to the operating segments.
Segment revenue levels can be significantly influenced by currency fluctuations, large transactions, mix of business and reporting practices of ceding companies, and therefore may fluctuate from period to period. Although reasonably predictable over a period of years, segment claims experience can be volatile over shorter periods. See “Results of Operations by Segment” below for further information about the Company’s segments.

Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the application of accounting policies that often involve a significant degree of judgment. Management, on an ongoing basis, reviews estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of financial statements. If management determines that modifications in assumptions and estimates are appropriate given current facts and circumstances, results of operations and financial position as reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements could change significantly.
Management believes the critical accounting policies relating to the following areas are most dependent on the application of estimates and assumptions:
    Premiums receivable;
Deferred policy acquisition costs;
    Liabilities for future policy benefits and incurred but not reported claims;
    Valuation of investments, allowance for credit losses and impairments to specific investments;
    Valuation of embedded derivatives and market risk benefits; and
    Income taxes.
A discussion of each of the critical accounting policies may be found in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies.” The critical accounting polices related to Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs, estimating the Company’s Liability for Future Policy Benefits and Valuation of Embedded Derivatives and Market Risk Benefits presented below have been updated to reflect the adoption of ASU 2018-12.
Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs
ASU 2018-12 simplified the accounting for deferred policy acquisition costs by eliminating the requirement to test deferred policy acquisition costs for impairment or recoverability, an interest component is no longer accrued, and the requirement to adjust deferred policy acquisition costs for unrealized gains and losses (i.e., “shadow adjustments”) has been eliminated. ASU 2018-12 also clarified that deferred policy acquisition costs should only include costs that have been incurred and estimates of future contract renewal costs shall no longer be included, and capitalized costs should be amortized using a simplified method that approximates straight line amortization. As a result of these simplifications, the Company no longer considers the accounting for deferred policy acquisition costs to be a critical accounting policy.
Liabilities for Future Policy Benefits and Incurred but Not Reported Claims
The liability for future policy benefits is estimated using the Company’s mortality, morbidity, and persistency assumptions that reflect the Company’s historical experience, industry data, cedant specific experience, and discount rates based on the current yields of upper-medium grade fixed income instruments (A rated credit). These assumptions vary with the characteristics of the reinsurance contract, the year the risk was assumed, age of the insured and other appropriate factors.
The liability for annuities in the payout phase is calculated using expected mortality, discount rates and other assumptions. These assumptions vary with the characteristics of the plan of insurance, year of issue, age of insured, and other appropriate factors. The mortality assumptions are based on the Company’s experience as well as industry experience and standards.
For the purpose of calculating the liability for future policy benefits, the Company’s reinsurance contracts for its Traditional business are grouped into annual cohorts based on the effective date of the reinsurance contract. The annual groupings are further disaggregated based on:
How the reinsurance contracts are priced and managed;
Geographical locations;
Underlying currency of the contract;
Ceding company and other factors.
Given the unique risks and highly customized nature the Company’s financial reinsurance business, reinsurance contracts for the Financial Solutions business are not aggregated with other contracts for the purpose of calculating the liability for future policy benefits.
With the exception of claim expense assumptions, the Company reviews actual and anticipated experience compared to the assumptions used to establish policy benefits on a quarterly basis and will update those assumptions if evidence suggests the assumptions should be revised. The Company expects to complete its annual review and any necessary updates of the cash flow assumptions used to calculate the liability for future policy benefits during the third quarter of each year. Updates may occur in
68

Table of Contents

other quarters if information becomes available during the quarter that indicates an assumption update is necessary. The Company has elected to lock-in claims expense assumptions at contract inception and those assumptions are not subsequently reviewed or updated.
The discount rates used to estimate the liability are based on upper-medium grade fixed-income instruments (A rated credit) with similar tenor to the expected liability cash flows. The discount rate assumption is updated quarterly and used to remeasure the liability at the reporting date, with the resulting change reflected in other comprehensive income (loss). For unobservable discount rates, the Company uses estimates consistent with fair value guidance, maximizing the use of relevant, observable market prices and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.
Valuation of Market Risk Benefits and Embedded Derivatives
The Company reinsures certain annuity products that contain terms that are deemed to be market risk benefits or embedded derivatives, primarily variable annuities with guaranteed minimum benefits and equity-indexed annuities.
Variable annuities with guaranteed minimum benefits have been identified as market risk benefits. Market risk benefits are contracts or contract features that both provide protection to the contract holder from other-than-nominal capital market risk and expose the Company to other-than-nominal capital market risk. Market risk benefits are measured at fair value using an option-based valuation model based on current net amounts at risk, market data, Company experience, and other factors. Changes in fair value are recognized in net income each period with the exception of the portion of the change in fair value due to a change in the liability’s credit valuation adjustment (“CVA”), which is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss).
The Company reinsures certain annuity products that contain terms that are deemed to be embedded derivatives, primarily equity-indexed annuities and variable annuities with guaranteed minimum benefits. The Company assesses each identified embedded derivative to determine whether it is required to be bifurcated under the general accounting principles for Derivatives and Hedging. If the instrument would not be reported in its entirety at fair value and it is determined that the terms of the embedded derivative are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics of the host contract, and that a separate instrument with the same terms would qualify as a derivative instrument, the embedded derivative is bifurcated from the host contract and accounted for as a freestanding derivative. Such embedded derivatives are carried on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value with the host contract.
Additionally, reinsurance treaties written on a modified coinsurance or funds withheld basis are subject to the general accounting principles for Derivatives and Hedging related to embedded derivatives. The majority of the Company’s funds withheld at interest balances are associated with its reinsurance of annuity contracts, the majority of which are subject to the general accounting principles for Derivatives and Hedging related to embedded derivatives. Management believes the embedded derivative feature in each of these reinsurance treaties is similar to a total return swap on the assets held by the ceding companies.
The valuation of the various embedded derivatives requires complex calculations based on actuarial and capital markets inputs and assumptions related to estimates of future cash flows and interpretations of the primary accounting guidance continue to evolve in practice. The valuation of embedded derivatives is sensitive to the investment credit spread environment. Changes in investment credit spreads are also affected by the application of a credit valuation adjustment (“CVA”). The fair value calculation of an embedded derivative in an asset position utilizes a CVA based on the ceding company’s credit risk. Conversely, the fair value calculation of an embedded derivative in a liability position utilizes a CVA based on the Company’s credit risk. Generally, an increase in investment credit spreads, ignoring changes in the CVA, will have a negative impact on the fair value of the embedded derivative (decrease in income).

Three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to three months ended June 30, 2022
The increase in income for the three months ended June 30, 2023, was primarily the result of:
An increase in net investment income attributable to an increase in the average invested asset base and higher interest rates earned on new investments.
A $20 million decrease in the investment related losses associated with the changes in the fair value of embedded derivatives on modco/funds withheld treaties for the three month period ended June 30, 2023, compared to a decrease of $56 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2022.
A decrease in other revenue, which was the result of a recapture fee received in the prior year related to a U.S. Capital Solutions transaction.
Six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to three months ended June 30, 2022
The increase in income for the six months ended June 30, 2023, was primarily the result of:
An increase in net investment income attributable to an increase in the average invested asset base and higher interest rates earned on new investments.
A $17 million improvement in investment related losses associated with changes in the fair value of embedded derivative on modco/funds withheld treaties for the six month period ended June 30, 2023, compared to a decrease of $89 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2022.
Favorable claims experience in the U.S. and Latin America and Asia Traditional segment during the six month period ended June 30, 2023. The unfavorable experience in the prior period, included in future policy benefits remeasurement (gains) losses, was primarily attributable to higher than expected claims as a result of COVID-19 incurred in the first quarter of 2022.

Table of Contents

Foreign currency fluctuations can result in variances in the financial statement line items. Foreign currency exchange fluctuations decreased income before taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, by $4 million and $17 million, respectively, primarily due to the weakening of the Canadian Dollar compared to the U.S. dollar. Unless otherwise stated, all amounts discussed below are net of foreign currency fluctuations.
Premiums and business growth
The increase in premiums in the first six months of 2023 is primarily due to a single premium pension risk transfer (“PRT”) transaction completed in the first quarter of 2023. The PRT single premium was offset by an increase in reserves. The remaining increase in premiums for the three and six months end June 30, 2023, is attributable to organic growth on existing treaties and new business production, measured by the face amount of life reinsurance in force, of $168.8 billion and $215.7 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Consolidated assumed life reinsurance in force increased to $3,479.6 billion as of June 30, 2023, from $3,380.9 billion as of June 30, 2022, due to new business production and changes in foreign exchange rates.
Net investment income and investment related gains (losses), net
The increase in net investment income is primarily attributable to an increase in the average invested asset base and interest rates earned on new investments, partially offset by a decrease in variable investment income associated with joint venture and limited partnership investments:
The average invested assets at amortized cost, excluding spread related business, totaled $35.8 billion and $34.9 billion in 2023 and 2022, respectively.
The average yield earned on investments, excluding spread related business, was 4.42% and 4.63% for the three month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 4.56% and 4.96% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease in yield for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023, compared to the prior year is attributable to lower variable investment income associated with joint ventures and limited partnerships.
The average yield will vary from period to period depending on several variables, including the prevailing risk-free interest rate and credit spread environment, prepayment fees and make-whole premiums, changes in the mix of the underlying investments and cash and cash equivalents balances. Variable investment income from joint ventures and limited partnerships will also vary from period to period and is highly dependent on the timing of dividends and distributions on certain investments. Investment income is allocated to the operating segments based upon average assets and related capital levels deemed appropriate to support segment operations.
The decrease in investment related losses, net is primarily attributable to the following:
Changes in the fair value of embedded derivatives associated with modco/funds withheld treaties increased (decreased) by $(20) million and $17 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30 2023, respectively, compared to decreases of $56 million and $89 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022, respectively.
The Company uses various derivative instruments such as interest rate swaps, credit default swaps and foreign exchange forwards for risk management purposes that either do not qualify or have not been elected for hedge accounting treatment. Changes in the fair value of these instruments are included in investment related gains (losses), net. During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023, the fair value of these instruments decreased by $93 million and $124 million, respectively, compared to decreases of $114 million and $200 million during the first three and six months of 2022. See Note 12 – “Derivative Instruments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
The effective tax rate was 21.7% and 25.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to 27.7% and 26.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. See Note 14 – “Income Tax” for additional information on the Company’s consolidated effective tax rate.

Impact of certain derivatives and market risk benefits
The Company recognizes in consolidated income any changes in the fair value of embedded derivatives on modco or funds withheld treaties and equity index annuities (“EIAs”). In addition, the Company recognizes the changes in fair value of market risk benefits associated with guaranteed minimum benefit riders in market risk benefits remeasurement gains (losses). The Company utilizes freestanding derivatives to minimize the income statement volatility due to changes in the fair value of market risk benefits associated with guaranteed minimum benefit riders.

Results of Operations by Segment
U.S. and Latin America Operations
The U.S. and Latin America operations consist of two major segments: Traditional and Financial Solutions. The Traditional segment primarily specializes in the reinsurance of individual mortality-risk, health and long-term care and to a lesser extent, group reinsurance. The Financial Solutions segment consists of Asset-Intensive and Capital Solutions. Asset-Intensive within the Financial Solutions segment includes coinsurance of annuities and corporate-owned life insurance policies and to a lesser extent, fee-based synthetic guaranteed investment contracts, which include investment-only, stable value contracts. Capital Solutions within the Financial Solutions segment primarily involves assisting ceding companies in meeting applicable regulatory requirements by enhancing the ceding companies’ financial strength and regulatory surplus position through relatively low risk reinsurance and other transactions. Typically, these transactions do not qualify as reinsurance under GAAP, due to the low-risk nature of the transactions, therefore only the related net fees are reflected in other revenues on the condensed consolidated statements of income.
The following table summarizes income before income taxes for the Company’s U.S. and Latin America operations for the periods presented:

Income before income taxes for the second quarter is slightly lower than prior year due primarily to a recapture fee earned on a terminated Capital Solutions transaction in the second quarter of 2022 and unfavorable claims experience in the U.S. Traditional lines of business. The increase in income before income taxes for the first six months of 2023 was primarily the result of increases in investment related gains due to changes in the fair value of the embedded derivatives associated with modco/funds withheld treaties within Financial Solutions, favorable changes in the fair value of market risk benefits for Asset Intensive business and favorable claims experience in the U.S. Traditional lines of business, partially offset by lower variable investment income and a recapture fee earned on a terminated capital solutions transaction in the second quarter of 2022.

The decrease in income before income taxes in the second quarter for the U.S. and Latin America Traditional segment was primarily due to unfavorable claims experience period over period within the U.S. Individual Mortality business, partially offset by favorable claims experience in both Group and Latin American business. The increase in income before income taxes for the first six months was the result of favorable claims experience across all lines, driven in large part by COVID-19 claims in the first quarter of 2022.
Revenues
The increase in net premiums was primarily due to organic growth as well as new business treaties. The segment added new life business production, measured by face amount of life reinsurance in force, of $35.6 billion and $32.7 billion during the second quarter of 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $69.7 billion and $72.2 billion during the first six months of 2023 and 2022, respectively. Also contributing to the increase in net premiums was the recapture of a retrocession treaty, effective April 1, 2023, which resulted in a reduction in ceded premium in the second quarter of 2023.
The decrease in net investment income during the six months ended June 30, 2023, was primarily due to a decrease in variable investment income associated with investments in real estate joint ventures and investments in limited partnerships and private equity funds as compared to the same period in 2022.
Benefits and expenses
The increase in future policy benefits remeasurement losses during the second quarter was attributable to less favorable claims experience relative to the prior-year quarter, primarily in the U.S. Individual Mortality business, as well as the impacts of in-force management actions that improve the long-term value of the business. The decrease in future policy benefits remeasurement losses and the loss ratio for the first six months of 2023 was attributable to favorable claims experience, predominantly related to COVID-19 claims, in the first quarter of 2022.
The decrease in policy acquisition costs and other insurance expenses as a percentage of net premiums is less than 1% and is primarily due to varying allowance levels within coinsurance type arrangements and the mix of new business between coinsurance versus yearly renewable term.

The increase in income before income taxes for the U.S. and Latin America Financial Solutions segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, was primarily due to the change in the fair value of embedded derivatives on funds withheld at interest associated with treaties written on a modco or funds withheld basis and market risk benefits.
The book value of the invested asset base supporting asset-intensive transactions decreased to $22.7 billion as of June 30, 2023, from $23.8 billion as of June 30, 2022.
The decrease in the asset base was primarily due to $1.8 billion in net run off of existing in force transactions, partially offset by $0.6 billion from new transactions.
As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, $3.9 billion and $4.3 billion, respectively, of the invested assets were funds withheld at interest, of which greater than 90% was associated with two clients.
As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the amount of reinsurance assumed in capital solutions transactions, as measured by pre-tax statutory surplus, risk based capital and other financial structures was $25.6 billion and $24.1 billion, respectively.

Impact of certain derivatives and market risk benefits
The Company recognizes in consolidated income any changes in the fair value of embedded derivatives on modco or funds withheld treaties and equity indexed annuities (“EIAs”). In addition, the Company recognizes the changes in fair value of market risk benefits associated with guaranteed minimum benefit riders. The Company utilizes freestanding derivatives to minimize the income statement volatility due to changes in the fair value of market risk benefits associated with guaranteed minimum benefit riders.
Income from the asset-intensive business tends to be volatile due to changes in the fair value of certain derivatives, including embedded derivatives associated with reinsurance treaties structured on a modco or funds withheld basis, embedded derivatives associated with the Company’s reinsurance of EIAs, and changes in the fair value of market risk benefits associated with guaranteed minimum benefit riders. Fluctuations occur period to period primarily due to changing investment conditions including, but not limited to, interest rate movements (including risk-free rates and credit spreads), implied volatility and equity market performance, all of which are factors in the calculations of the fair value of the assets and liabilities.
The following table summarizes the asset-intensive results and quantifies the impact of these embedded derivatives and market risk benefits for the periods presented. Revenues before certain derivatives, benefits and expenses before certain derivatives, and income before income taxes and certain derivatives should not be viewed as substitutes for GAAP revenues, GAAP benefits and expenses, and GAAP income before income taxes.

Embedded Derivatives Modco/Funds Withheld Treaties – Represents the change in the fair value of embedded derivatives on funds withheld at interest associated with treaties written on a modco or funds withheld basis. The Company’s utilization of a credit valuation adjustment did not have a material effect on the change in fair value of these embedded derivatives for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
The change in fair value of the embedded derivatives related to modco/funds withheld treaties, increased (decreased) income before income taxes by $(19) million and $(75) million for the second quarter and $19 million and $(124) million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease in income for the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, was due to wider credit spreads. The increase in income for the six months ended June 30, 2023, was due to tightening credit spreads and the decrease in income for the six months ended June 30, 2022, was due to wider credit spreads.

Market Risk Benefits – Represents the impact related to market risk benefits, which consist of guaranteed minimum benefits associated with the Company’s reinsurance of variable and equity-indexed annuities, including the associated free standing derivatives (interest rate swaps, financial futures and equity options), purchased by the Company to substantially hedge the market risk benefit. The change in fair value of the market risk benefits, net of the changes in the associated free standing derivatives, decreased income before income taxes by $11 million and $25 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, due to increasing interest rates and equity markets. The decrease in income of $32 million and $33 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, was due to increasing interest rates.
Equity-Indexed Annuities Represents changes in the liability for equity-indexed annuities in excess of changes in account value. The change in fair value of embedded derivative liabilities associated with equity-indexed annuities increased (decreased) income before income taxes by $(2) million and $28 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The increase in 2022 was due to increasing interest rates which has the impact of lowering the fair value of the liability. The increase in income before income taxes was $5 million and $44 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, due to an increase in risk free interest rates which has the impact of lowering the fair value of the liability.
Discussion and analysis before certain derivatives and market risk benefits
The changes in derivatives and market risk benefits discussed above are considered unrealized by management and do not affect current cash flows, crediting rates or spread performance on the underlying treaties. Fluctuations occur period to period primarily due to changing investment conditions including, but not limited to, interest rate movements (including benchmark rates and credit spreads), implied volatility and equity market performance, all of which are factors in the calculations of fair value. Therefore, management believes it is helpful to distinguish between the effects of changes in these derivatives and market risk benefits as the primary factors that drive profitability of the underlying treaties are investment income, fee income (included in other revenues) and interest credited.
Income before income taxes and certain derivatives and market risk benefits increased by $29 million and $25 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the same periods in 2022, primarily due to higher investment income, net in coinsurance and funds withheld portfolios due to increases in interest rates.
Revenue before certain derivatives and market risk benefits increased by $36 million and $198 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the same periods in 2022. The increase in the second quarter of 2023 was primarily due to higher investment income, net in coinsurance and funds withheld portfolios, due to an increase in interest rates. The increase in the first six months of 2023 was primarily due to net premiums from a single premium PRT transaction, which is offset by a corresponding increase in reserves.
Benefits and expenses before certain derivatives and market risk benefits increased by $7 million and $173 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the same periods in 2022. The increase in the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to the establishment of liabilities for future policy benefits associated with a single premium transaction.
Canada Operations
The Canada operations are primarily engaged in traditional reinsurance, which consists mainly of traditional individual life reinsurance, and to a lesser extent creditor, group life and health, critical illness and disability reinsurance. Creditor insurance covers the outstanding balance on personal, mortgage or commercial loans in the event of death, disability or critical illness and is generally shorter in duration than traditional individual life insurance. The Canada Financial Solutions segment consists of longevity and capital solutions.

The increase in income before income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2023, was primarily due to higher investment related gains (losses). The increase in income before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2023, was primarily due to more favorable claims experience in the individual mortality line of business as compared to the same period in 2022, higher investment related gains (losses), net and lower policy acquisition costs and other insurance expenses.
Revenues
The decrease in net premiums is due to foreign currency fluctuations. Excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, premiums increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to organic growth.
The segment added new life business production, measured by face amount of life reinsurance in force, of $11.2 billion and $12.8 billion for the second quarter of 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $22.0 and $25.5 billion during the first six months of 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Benefits and expenses
Loss ratios for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, are consistent with the ratios of the same period in 2022.

Europe, Middle East and Africa Operations
The Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) operations include business primarily generated by offices in France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Middle East, the Netherlands, Poland, South Africa, Spain and the United Kingdom (“UK”). EMEA consists of two major segments: Traditional and Financial Solutions. The Traditional segment primarily provides reinsurance through yearly renewable term and coinsurance agreements on a variety of life, health and critical illness products. Reinsurance agreements may be facultative or automatic agreements covering primarily individual risks and, in some markets, group risks. The Financial Solutions segment consists of reinsurance and other transactions associated with longevity closed blocks, payout annuities, capital management solutions and financial reinsurance.

The decrease in income before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to decreased net premiums.
Revenues
The decrease in net premiums for the first six months of 2023 was due to foreign currency fluctuations. Excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, business volume on new and existing treaties increased in the first six months of 2023.
The segment added new life business production, measured by face amount of life reinsurance in force, of $36.6 billion and $45.1 billion during the second quarter of 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $66.7 billion and $95.6 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Benefits and expenses
The increases in the loss ratios for the second quarter and first six months of 2023 were primarily due to a decrease in premiums and claims provisions related to the earthquake in Turkey. In addition, the increase in the loss ratio for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was due to worsening mortality experience primarily in the UK and South Africa.

The increases in income before income taxes for the first three and six months of 2023 were primarily due favorable claims experience related to closed longevity blocks, partially offset by decreased net premiums.
Revenues
The decrease in net premiums was primarily due to an increase in the ceded premium on a closed block longevity transactions.
The increase in net investment income was primarily related to higher yield and higher income associated with unit-linked policies which fluctuate with market performance and are offset by an increase in interest credited related to the unit-linked liabilities.
The decrease in investment related losses for the second quarter was attributable to fluctuations in the fair market value of CPI swap derivatives due to changes in future inflation expectations. The increase in investment related losses for the six months ended June 30, 2023, was attributable to higher investment related losses on fixed-income securities.
Benefits and expenses
The decrease in claims and other policy benefits is the result of favorable longevity experience and an increased level of external retrocession coverage on closed block longevity transactions.

The increase in income before income taxes is primarily due to higher net investment income and a decrease in investment related losses. The invested asset base supporting asset-intensive transactions increased to $15.1 billion as of June 30, 2023, from $10.7 billion as of June 30, 2022. The increase in the asset base compared to June 30, 2022, was primarily due to approximately $2.8 billion in additional assets from recently executed transactions and net organic growth of $1.6 billion from existing in-force blocks. The amount of reinsurance assumed from client companies, as measured by pre-tax statutory surplus, risk based capital and other financial reinsurance structures was $1.1 billion and $0.9 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Fees earned from this business can vary significantly depending on the size, complexity and timing of the transactions and, therefore, can fluctuate from period to period.
Revenues
The decrease in net premiums during the second quarter of 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 is the result of lower contributions from single premium asset-intensive transactions. The increase in net premiums for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022 is attributable to new asset-intensive business, partially offset by lower contributions from single premium asset-intensive transactions.
The increase in net investment income is due to a growing asset base and increased yields due to an increase in interest rates.
The decrease in investment related gains (losses), net during the quarter ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022 is the result of favorable fluctuations in the fair value of credit derivatives of $35 million from tightening credit spreads and gains due to investment activity of $29 million. The decrease in investment related gains (losses), net for the first six months of 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, is attributable to favorable fluctuations in the fair value of credit derivatives of $103 million from tightening credit spreads.
Expenses
The decrease in claims and other policy benefits during the second quarter of 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 is the result of lower contributions from single premium asset-intensive transactions. The increase in claims and other policy benefits and interest credited in the first six months of 2023 as compared to 2022 is attributable to new asset-intensive business, partially offset by lower contributions from single premium asset-intensive transactions.
Corporate and Other
Corporate and Other revenues primarily include investment income from unallocated invested assets, investment related gains and losses and service fees. Corporate and Other expenses consist of the offset to capital charges allocated to the operating segments within the policy acquisition costs and other insurance income line item, unallocated overhead and executive costs, interest expense related to debt, and the investment income and expense associated with the Company’s collateral finance and securitization transactions and service business expenses. Additionally, Corporate and Other includes results from certain wholly-owned subsidiaries that, among other activities, develop and market technology, and provide consulting and outsourcing

The increase in loss before income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2023, is primarily due to a decrease in net investment income, increase in investment related gains (losses), net and an increase in other operating expenses and interest expense. The increase in loss before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2023, is attributable to an increase in other operating expenses and interest expense.
Revenues
The decrease in net investment income for the three month period ended June 30, 2023, was attributable to lower yields, primarily due to limited partnerships partially offset by a higher unallocated invested asset base.
The increase in investment related gains (losses), net for the three month period ended June 30, 2023, was primarily attributable to net losses on sales of fixed maturity securities in the second quarter of 2022.
Expenses
The increases in other operating expenses for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023, were primarily attributable to an increase in incentive compensation expense.
The increases in interest expense for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023, were primarily attributable to an increase in outstanding debt compared to prior periods.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
The Company believes that cash flows from the source of funds available to it will provide sufficient cash flows for the next twelve months to satisfy the current liquidity requirements of the Company under various scenarios that include the potential risk of early recapture of reinsurance treaties, market events and higher than expected claims. The Company performs periodic liquidity stress testing to ensure its asset portfolio includes sufficient high quality liquid assets that could be utilized to bolster its liquidity position under stress scenarios. These assets could be utilized as collateral for secured borrowing transactions with various third parties or by selling the securities in the open market if needed. The Company’s liquidity requirements have been and will continue to be funded through net cash flows from operations. However, in the event of significant unanticipated cash requirements beyond normal liquidity needs, the Company has multiple liquidity alternatives available based on market conditions and the amount and timing of the liquidity need. These alternatives include the sale of invested assets subject to market conditions, borrowings under committed credit facilities, secured borrowings, and if necessary, issuing long-term debt, preferred securities or common equity.
Current Market Environment
The Company’s average investment yield, excluding spread related business, for the three months ended June 30, 2023, was 4.42%, 21 basis points below the same period in 2022 primarily due to decreased variable investment income from real estate

joint ventures and limited partnerships, partially offset by increased yield from the increased interest rates. The average yield will vary from year to year depending on several variables, including the prevailing risk-fee interest rate and credit spread environment, prepayment fees and make-whole premiums, changes in the mix of the underlying investments and cash and cash equivalents balances. Variable investment income from joint ventures and limited partnerships will also vary from year to year and is highly dependent on the timing of dividends and distributions on certain investments. Gross unrealized gains on fixed maturity securities available-for-sale increased from $0.6 billion at December 31, 2022, to $0.7 billion at June 30, 2023. Additionally, gross unrealized losses decreased from $7.3 billion at December 31, 2022, to $6.6 billion at June 30, 2023.
The Company continues to be in a position to hold any investment security showing an unrealized loss until recovery, provided it remains comfortable with the credit of the issuer. The Company does not rely on short-term funding or commercial paper and to date it has experienced no liquidity pressure, nor does it anticipate such pressure in the foreseeable future.
The Company projects its reserves to be sufficient, and it would not expect to write down deferred acquisition costs or be required to take any actions to augment capital, even if interest rates remain at current levels for the next five years, assuming all other factors remain constant. While the Company has felt the pressures of sustained low interest rates and volatile equity markets and may continue to do so, its business and results of operations are not overly sensitive to these risks. Mortality and morbidity risks continue to be the most significant risk for the Company. Although management believes the Company’s current capital base is adequate to support its business at current operating levels, it continues to monitor new business opportunities and any associated new capital needs that could arise from the changing financial landscape.
The Holding Company
RGA is an insurance holding company whose primary uses of liquidity include, but are not limited to, the immediate capital needs of its operating companies, dividends paid to its shareholders, repurchase of common stock and interest payments on its indebtedness. The primary sources of RGA’s liquidity include proceeds from its capital-raising efforts, interest income on undeployed corporate investments, interest income received on surplus notes with RGA Reinsurance Company (“RGA Reinsurance”), RGA Life and Annuity Insurance Company (“RGA Life and Annuity”) and Rockwood Reinsurance Company (“Rockwood Re”) and dividends from operating subsidiaries. As the Company continues its growth efforts, RGA will continue to be dependent upon these sources of liquidity. The following tables provide comparative information for RGA (dollars in millions):

See Item 15, Schedule II – “Condensed Financial Information of the Registrant” in the 2022 Annual Report for additional financial information related to RGA.
The undistributed earnings of substantially all of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries have been reinvested indefinitely in those non-U.S. operations, as described in Note 9 – “Income Tax” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2022 Annual Report. As U.S. Tax Reform generally eliminated U.S. federal income taxes on dividends from foreign subsidiaries, the Company does not expect to incur material income taxes if these funds are repatriated.
RGA endeavors to maintain a capital structure that provides financial and operational flexibility to its subsidiaries, credit ratings that support its competitive position in the financial services marketplace, and shareholder returns. As part of the Company’s capital deployment strategy, it has in recent years repurchased shares of RGA common stock and paid dividends to RGA shareholders, as authorized by the board of directors.
On February 25, 2022, RGA’s board of directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $400 million of RGA’s outstanding common stock. The authorization was effective immediately and does not have an expiration date. In connection with this authorization, the board of directors terminated the stock repurchase authority granted in 2019. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, RGA repurchased 722,774 shares of common stock under this program for $100 million.

Table of Contents

The pace of repurchase activity depends on various factors such as the level of available cash, an evaluation of the costs and benefits associated with alternative uses of excess capital, such as acquisitions and in force reinsurance transactions, and RGA’s stock price.

In August 2023, RGA’s board of directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.85 per share. All future payments of dividends are at the discretion of RGA’s board of directors and will depend on the Company’s earnings, capital requirements, insurance regulatory conditions, operating conditions, and other such factors as the board of directors may deem relevant. The amount of dividends that RGA can pay will depend in part on the operations of its reinsurance subsidiaries. See Note 4 – “Equity” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information on the Company’s share repurchase program.
Debt
Certain of the Company’s debt agreements contain financial covenant restrictions related to, among others, liens, the issuance and disposition of stock of restricted subsidiaries, minimum requirements of consolidated net worth, maximum ratios of debt to capitalization and change of control provisions. The Company renewed its syndicated credit facility in the first quarter of 2023. Under the terms of the new facility the Company is required to maintain a minimum consolidated net worth, as defined in the debt agreements, $5.8 billion effective with the June 30, 2023, covenant calculations. Also, consolidated indebtedness, calculated as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, cannot exceed 35% of the sum of the Company’s consolidated indebtedness plus adjusted RGA Inc’s shareholders’ equity. A material ongoing covenant default could require immediate payment of the amount due, including principal, under the various agreements. Additionally, the Company’s debt agreements contain cross-acceleration covenants, which would make outstanding borrowings immediately payable in the event of a material uncured covenant default under any of the agreements, including, but not limited to, non-payment of indebtedness when due for an amount in excess of the amounts set forth in those agreements, bankruptcy proceedings, or any other event that results in the acceleration of the maturity of indebtedness.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $4.9 billion and $4.0 billion, respectively, in outstanding borrowings under its debt agreements and was in compliance with all covenants under those agreements. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the average interest rate on long-term debt outstanding was 5.06% and 4.71%, respectively. The ability of the Company to make debt principal and interest payments depends on the earnings and surplus of subsidiaries, investment earnings on undeployed capital proceeds, available liquidity at the holding company, and the Company’s ability to raise additional funds.
The Company enters into derivative agreements with counterparties that reference either the Company’s debt rating or its financial strength rating. If either rating is downgraded in the future, it could trigger certain terms in the Company’s derivative agreements, which could negatively affect overall liquidity. For the majority of the Company’s derivative agreements, there is a termination event should the long-term senior debt ratings drop below either BBB+ (S&P) or Baa1 (Moody’s) or the financial strength ratings drop below either A- (S&P) or A3 (Moody’s).
The Company may borrow up to $850 million in cash and obtain letters of credit in multiple currencies on its revolving credit facility that matures in March 2028. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had no cash borrowings outstanding and no issued, but undrawn, letters of credit under this facility.
On June 8, 2023, the Company issued 6.0% fixed rate senior notes due 2033 with a face amount of $400 million and will be used to repay upon maturity the $400 million 4.70% Senior Notes that mature on September 15, 2023. Capitalized issuance costs were $4 million.
On March 23, 2023, Chesterfield Reinsurance Company, a subsidiary of RGA, issued 7.125% Surplus Notes due 2043, with a face amount of $500 million. Capitalized issue costs were approximately $6 million.
Based on the historic cash flows and the current financial results of the Company, management believes RGA’s cash flows will be sufficient to enable RGA to meet its obligations for at least the next 12 months.

Credit and Committed Facilities
On March 13, 2023, The Company entered into a new syndicated revolving credit facility with a five year term and an overall capacity of $850 million. The new facility replaced the existing $850 million syndicated revolving credit facility, which was scheduled to mature in August 2023. See Note 13 – “Debt” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2022 Annual Report for further information about these facilities.
The Company has obtained bank letters of credit in favor of various affiliated and unaffiliated insurance companies from which the Company assumes business. These letters of credit represent guarantees of performance under the reinsurance agreements and allow ceding companies to take statutory reserve credits. Certain of these letters of credit contain financial covenant restrictions similar to those described in the “Debt” discussion above. At June 30, 2023, there were approximately $57 million of outstanding bank letters of credit in favor of third parties. Additionally, in accordance with applicable regulations, the Company utilizes letters of credit to secure statutory reserve credits when it retrocedes business to its affiliated subsidiaries. The Company cedes business to its affiliates to help reduce the amount of regulatory capital required in certain jurisdictions, such as the U.S. and UK. The Company believes the capital required to support the business in the affiliates reflects more realistic expectations than the original jurisdiction of the business, where capital requirements are often considered to be quite conservative. As of June 30, 2023, $791 million in letters of credit from various banks were outstanding, but undrawn, backing reinsurance between the various subsidiaries of the Company.
Cash Flows
The Company’s principal cash inflows from its reinsurance operations include premiums and deposit funds received from ceding companies. The primary liquidity concerns with respect to these cash flows are early recapture of the reinsurance contract by the ceding company and lapses of annuity products reinsured by the Company. The Company’s principal cash inflows from its invested assets result from investment income and the maturity and sales of invested assets. The primary liquidity concerns with respect to these cash inflows relates to the risk of default by debtors and interest rate volatility. The Company manages these risks very closely. See “Investments” below.
Additional sources of liquidity to meet unexpected cash outflows in excess of operating cash inflows and current cash and equivalents on hand also includes drawing funds under a revolving credit facility, under which the Company had availability of $850 million as of June 30, 2023. The Company also has $745 million of funds available through collateralized borrowings from the FHLB as of June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2023, the Company could have borrowed these additional amounts without violating any of its existing debt covenants.
The Company’s principal cash outflows relate to the payment of claims liabilities, interest credited, operating expenses, income taxes, dividends to shareholders, purchases of treasury stock, and principal and interest under debt and other financing obligations. The Company seeks to limit its exposure to loss on any single insured and to recover a portion of benefits paid by ceding reinsurance to other insurance enterprises or reinsurers under excess coverage and coinsurance contracts (See Note 2 – “Significant Accounting Policies and Pronouncements” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2022 Annual Report). The Company performs annual financial reviews of its retrocessionaires to evaluate financial stability and performance. The Company has never experienced a material default in connection with retrocession arrangements, nor has it experienced any difficulty in collecting claims recoverable from retrocessionaires; however, no assurance can be given as to the future performance of such retrocessionaires nor to the recoverability of future claims. The Company’s management believes its cash and cash equivalents along with its current sources of liquidity are adequate to meet its cash requirements for the next 12 months.

Cash Flows from Operations – The principal cash inflows from the Company’s reinsurance activities come from premiums, investment and fee income, annuity considerations and deposit funds. The principal cash outflows relate to the liabilities associated with various life and health insurance, annuity and disability products, operating expenses, income tax payments and interest on outstanding debt obligations. The primary liquidity concern with respect to these cash flows is the risk of shortfalls in premiums and investment income, particularly in periods with abnormally high claims levels.
Cash Flows from Investments – The principal cash inflows from the Company’s investment activities come from repayments of principal on invested assets, proceeds from maturities of invested assets, sales of invested assets and settlements of freestanding derivatives. The principal cash outflows relate to purchases of investments, issuances of policy loans and settlements of freestanding derivatives. The Company typically has a net cash outflow from investing activities because cash inflows from insurance operations are reinvested in accordance with its asset/liability management discipline to fund insurance liabilities. The Company closely monitors and manages these risks through its credit risk management process. The primary liquidity concerns with respect to these cash flows are the risk of default by debtors and market disruption, which could make it difficult for the Company to sell investments.
Financing Cash Flows – The principal cash inflows from the Company’s financing activities come from issuances of RGA debt and equity securities, and deposit funds associated with universal life and other investment type policies and contracts. The principal cash outflows come from repayments of debt, payments of dividends to shareholders, purchases of treasury stock, and withdrawals associated with universal life and other investment type policies and contracts. A primary liquidity concern with respect to these cash flows is the risk of early contractholder and policyholder withdrawal.
Contractual Obligations
There were no material changes in the Company’s contractual obligations from those reported in the 2022 Annual Report.
Asset / Liability Management
The Company actively manages its cash and invested assets using an approach that is intended to balance quality, diversification, asset/liability matching, liquidity and investment return. The goals of the investment process are to optimize after-tax, risk-adjusted investment income and after-tax, risk-adjusted total return while managing the assets and liabilities on a cash flow and duration basis.
The Company has established target asset portfolios for its operating segments, which represent the investment strategies intended to profitably fund its liabilities within acceptable risk parameters. These strategies include objectives and limits for effective duration, yield curve sensitivity and convexity, liquidity, asset sector concentration and credit quality.

The Company’s asset-intensive products are primarily supported by investments in fixed maturity securities reflected on the Company’s balance sheet and under funds withheld arrangements with the ceding company. Investment guidelines are established to structure the investment portfolio based upon the type, duration and behavior of products in the liability portfolio so as to achieve targeted levels of profitability. The Company manages the asset-intensive business to provide a targeted spread between the interest rate earned on investments and the interest rate credited to the underlying interest-sensitive contract liabilities. The Company periodically reviews models projecting different interest rate scenarios and their effect on profitability. Certain of these asset-intensive agreements, primarily in the U.S. and Latin America Financial Solutions operating segment, are generally funded by fixed maturity securities that are withheld by the ceding company.
The Company’s liquidity position (cash and cash equivalents and short term investments) was $2.8 billion and $3.1 billion at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Liquidity needs are determined from valuation analyses conducted by operational units and are driven by product portfolios. Periodic evaluations of demand liabilities and short-term liquid assets are designed to adjust specific portfolios, as well as their durations and maturities, in response to anticipated liquidity needs.
See “Securities Borrowing, Lending and Repurchase/Reverse Repurchase Agreements” in Note 11 – “Investments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information related to the Company’s securities borrowing, lending and repurchase/reverse repurchase programs. In addition to its security agreements with third parties, certain RGA’s subsidiaries have entered into intercompany securities lending agreements to more efficiently source securities for lending to third parties and to provide for more efficient regulatory capital management.
The Company is a member of the FHLB and holds $65 million of FHLB common stock, which is included in other invested assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company has entered into funding agreements with the FHLB under guaranteed investment contracts whereby the Company has issued the funding agreements in exchange for cash and for which the FHLB has been granted a blanket lien on the Company’s commercial and residential mortgage-backed securities and commercial mortgage loans used to collateralize the Company’s obligations under the funding agreements. The Company maintains control over these pledged assets, and may use, commingle, encumber or dispose of any portion of the collateral as long as there is no event of default and the remaining qualified collateral is sufficient to satisfy the collateral maintenance level. The funding agreements and the related security agreements represented by this blanket lien provide that upon any event of default by the Company, the FHLB’s recovery is limited to the amount of the Company’s liability under the outstanding funding agreements. The amount of the Company’s liability for the funding agreements with the FHLB was $1.3 billion at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, which is included in interest-sensitive contract liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The advances on these agreements are collateralized primarily by commercial and residential mortgage-backed securities, commercial mortgage loans, and U.S. Treasury and government agency securities. The amount of collateral exceeds the liability and is dependent on the type of assets collateralizing the guaranteed investment contracts.
Investments
Management of Investments
The Company’s investment and derivative strategies involve matching the characteristics of its reinsurance products and other obligations. The Company seeks to closely approximate the interest rate sensitivity of the assets with estimated interest rate sensitivity of the reinsurance liabilities. The Company achieves its income objectives through strategic and tactical asset allocations, applying security and derivative strategies within asset/liability and disciplined risk management frameworks. Derivative strategies are employed within the Company’s risk management framework to help manage duration, currency, and other risks in assets and/or liabilities and to replicate the credit characteristics of certain assets.
The Company’s portfolio management groups work with the Enterprise Risk Management function to develop the investment policies for the assets of the Company’s domestic and international investment portfolios. All investments held by the Company, directly or in a funds withheld at interest reinsurance arrangement, are monitored for conformance with the Company’s stated investment policy limits as well as any limits prescribed by the applicable jurisdiction’s insurance laws and regulations. See Note 11 – “Investments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the Company’s investments.

Investment Yield
The following table presents consolidated average invested assets at amortized cost, net investment income, investment yield, variable investment income (“VII”), and investment yield excluding VII, which can vary significantly from period to period (dollars in millions). The table excludes spread related business. Spread related business is primarily associated with contracts on which the Company earns an interest rate spread between assets and liabilities. To varying degrees, fluctuations in the yield on other spread related business is generally subject to corresponding adjustments to the interest credited on the liabilities.

Investment yield decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, in comparison to the same periods in the prior year, primarily due to decreased variable income from limited partnerships and real estate joint ventures, partially offset by increased yield from the recent increase in interest rates.
Fixed Maturity Securities Available-for-Sale
See “Fixed Maturity Securities Available-for-Sale” in Note 11 – “Investments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for tables that provide the amortized cost, allowance for credit losses, unrealized gains and losses and estimated fair value of these securities by type as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Important factors in the selection of investments include diversification, quality, yield, call protection and total rate of return potential. The relative importance of these factors is determined by market conditions and the underlying reinsurance liability and existing portfolio characteristics. As of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, approximately 94.3% of the Company’s consolidated investment portfolio of fixed maturity securities were investment grade.
The Company owns floating rate securities that represent approximately 7.6% and 7.4% of the total fixed maturity securities as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. These investments have a higher degree of income variability than the other fixed income holdings in the portfolio due to fluctuations in interest payments. The Company holds floating rate investments to match specific floating rate liabilities primarily reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as collateral finance notes, as well as to enhance asset management strategies.
The largest asset class in which fixed maturity securities were invested was corporate securities, which represented approximately 64.3% and 64.2% of total fixed maturity securities as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. See “Corporate Fixed Maturity Securities” in Note 11 – “Investments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for tables showing the major sector types, which comprise the corporate fixed maturity holdings as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s investments in Canadian government securities represented 6.7% and 6.9%, respectively, of the fair value of total fixed maturity securities. These assets are primarily high quality, long duration provincial strip bonds, the valuation of which is closely linked to the interest rate curve. These assets are longer in duration and held primarily for asset/liability management to meet Canadian regulatory requirements.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s investments in Japanese government securities represented 5.4% and 4.8%, respectively, of the fair value of total fixed maturity securities. These assets are primarily long duration government bonds matching the liability profile of the Company’s Japanese business.
The Company references rating agency designations in some of its investments disclosures. These designations are based on the ratings from nationally recognized statistical rating organizations, primarily Moody’s, S&P and Fitch. Structured securities held by the Company’s insurance subsidiaries that maintain the NAIC statutory basis of accounting utilize the NAIC rating methodology. The NAIC assigns designations to publicly traded as well as privately placed securities. The designations assigned by the NAIC range from class 1 to class 6, with designations in classes 1 and 2 generally considered investment grade (BBB or higher rating agency designation). NAIC designations in classes 3 through 6 are generally considered below investment grade (BB or lower rating agency designation). If no rating is available from a rating agency or the NAIC, then an internally developed rating is used.
The quality of the Company’s available-for-sale fixed maturity securities portfolio, as measured at fair value and by the percentage of fixed maturity securities invested in various ratings categories, relative to the entire available-for-sale fixed maturity securities portfolio, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was as follows (dollars in millions):

The Company’s ABS portfolio primarily consists of CLOs, aircraft and single-family rentals. The principal risks in holding ABS are structural, credit, capital market and interest rate risks. Structural risks include the securities’ cash flow priority in the capital structure and the inherent prepayment sensitivity of the underlying collateral. Credit risks include the adequacy and ability to realize proceeds from the collateral. Credit risks are mitigated by credit enhancements that include excess spread, over-collateralization and subordination. Capital market risks include general level of interest rates and the liquidity for these securities in the marketplace.
The Company’s CMBS portfolio primarily consists of large pool securitizations that are diverse by property type, borrower and geographic dispersion. The principal risks in holding CMBS are structural and credit risks. Structural risks include the securities’ cash flow priority in the capital structure and the inherent prepayment sensitivity of the underlying collateral. Credit risks include the adequacy and ability to realize proceeds from the collateral. The Company focuses on investment grade rated tranches that provide additional credit support beyond the equity protection in the underlying loans. These assets are viewed as an attractive alternative to other fixed income asset classes.

Table of Contents

The Company’s RMBS portfolio includes agency-issued pass-through securities and collateralized mortgage obligations. Agency-issued pass-through securities are guaranteed or otherwise supported by the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, Federal National Mortgage Association, or the Government National Mortgage Association. The principal risks inherent in holding RMBS are prepayment and extension risks, which will affect the timing of when cash will be received and are dependent on the level of mortgage interest rates. Prepayment risk is the unexpected increase in principal payments from the expected, primarily as a result of owner refinancing. Extension risk relates to the unexpected slowdown in principal payments from the expected. In addition, non-agency RMBS face credit risk should the borrower be unable to pay the contractual interest or principal on their obligation. The Company monitors its mortgage-backed securities to mitigate exposure to the cash flow uncertainties associated with these risks.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $6,602 million and $7,319 million, respectively, of gross unrealized losses related to its fixed maturity securities. The Company monitors its fixed maturity securities to determine impairments in value and evaluates factors such as financial condition of the issuer, payment performance, compliance with covenants, general market and industry sector conditions, current intent and ability to hold securities, and various other subjective factors. Based on management’s judgment, an allowance for credit losses in the amount that fair value is less than the amortized cost is recorded for securities determined to have expected credit losses.
Mortgage Loans
The Company’s mortgage loan portfolio consists of U.S., Canada and UK based investments primarily in commercial offices, light industrial properties and retail locations. The mortgage loan portfolio is diversified by geographic region and property type as discussed further under “Mortgage Loans” in Note 11 – “Investments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Most of the mortgage loans in the Company’s portfolio range in size up to $30 million, with the average mortgage loan investment as of June 30, 2023, totaling approximately $10 million.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s recorded investment in mortgage loans, gross of unamortized deferred loan origination fees and expenses and allowance for credit losses, were distributed geographically as follows (dollars in millions):

Allowance for Credit Losses and Impairments
The Company’s determination of whether a decline in value necessitates the recording of an allowance for credit losses includes an analysis of whether the issuer is current on its contractual payments, evaluating whether it is probable that the Company will be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the security and analyzing the overall ability of the Company to recover the amortized cost of the investment. See “Allowance for Credit Losses and Impairments” in Note 2 – “Significant Accounting Policies and Pronouncements” of the Company’s 2022 Annual Report for additional information. The table below summarizes investment related gains (losses), net related to allowances for credit losses and impairments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (dollars in millions).

Table of Contents

The change in allowance for credit losses on fixed maturity securities for the three months ended June 30, 2023, was primarily related to reversals on securities that were disposed of. The change in allowance for credit losses on fixed maturity securities for the six months ended June 30, 2023, was primarily related to the March 2023 banking crisis. The change in allowance for credit losses on fixed maturity securities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, was primarily related to high-yield securities. The increase in mortgage loan allowance for credit losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, was primarily due to growth in the asset base and updated model assumptions that take into account economic factors.
See “Unrealized Losses for Fixed Maturity Securities Available-for-Sale” in Note 11 – “Investments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for tables that present the estimated fair value and gross unrealized losses for securities that have estimated fair values below amortized cost by class and grade, as well as the length of time the related estimated fair value has remained below amortized cost as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company classified approximately 10.9% and 10.8%, respectively, of its fixed maturity securities in the Level 3 category (refer to Note 13 – “Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information). These securities primarily consist of private placement corporate and asset-backed securities.
See “Securities Borrowing, Lending and Repurchase/Reverse Repurchase Agreements” in Note 11 – “Investments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information related to the Company’s securities borrowing, lending and repurchase/reverse repurchase agreements.
Funds Withheld at Interest
For reinsurance agreements written on a modified coinsurance basis and certain agreements written on a coinsurance basis, assets equal to the net statutory reserves are withheld and legally owned and managed by the ceding company and are reflected as funds withheld at interest on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. In the event of a ceding company’s insolvency, the Company would need to assert a claim on the assets supporting its reserve liabilities. However, the risk of loss to the Company is mitigated by its ability to offset amounts it owes the ceding company for claims or allowances against amounts owed by the ceding company. Interest accrues to the total funds withheld at interest assets at rates defined by the treaty terms. The Company is subject to the investment performance on the withheld assets, although it does not directly control them. These assets are primarily fixed maturity investment securities and pose risks similar to the fixed maturity securities the Company owns. To mitigate this risk, the Company helps set the investment guidelines followed by the ceding company and monitors compliance. Ceding companies with funds withheld at interest had an average financial strength rating of “A” as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Certain ceding companies maintain segregated portfolios for the benefit of the Company.
Other Invested Assets
Other invested assets include lifetime mortgages, derivative contracts, FHLB common stock, unit-linked investments, and real estate held for investment. See “Other Invested Assets” in Note 11 – “Investments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a table that presents the carrying value of the Company’s other invested assets by type as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments to protect the Company against possible changes in the fair value of its investment portfolio as a result of interest rate changes, to hedge against risk of changes in the purchase price of securities, to hedge liabilities associated with the reinsurance of variable annuities with guaranteed living benefits and to manage the portfolio’s effective yield, maturity and duration. In addition, the Company utilizes derivative financial instruments to reduce the risk associated with fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company uses exchange-traded, centrally cleared, and customized over-the-counter derivative financial instruments.
See Note 12 – “Derivative Instruments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a table that presents the notional amounts and fair value of investment related derivative instruments held as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
The Company may be exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to derivative financial instruments. Generally, the credit exposure of the Company’s derivative contracts is limited to the fair value and accrued interest of non-collateralized derivative contracts in an asset position at the reporting date. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had credit exposure of $14 million.
The Company manages its credit risk related to over-the-counter derivatives by entering into transactions with creditworthy counterparties, maintaining collateral arrangements and through the use of master agreements that provide for a single net payment to be made by one counterparty to another at each due date and upon termination. As exchange-traded futures are affected through regulated exchanges, and positions are marked to market on a daily basis, the Company has minimal exposure

to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties. See Note 12 – “Derivative Instruments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information regarding the Company’s derivative instruments.
The Company holds $930 million and $868 million of beneficial interest in lifetime mortgages in the UK, net of allowance for credit losses, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Investment income includes $8 million and $9 million in interest income earned on lifetime mortgages for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $18 million and $19 million in interest income earned on lifetime mortgages for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Lifetime mortgages represent loans provided to individuals 55 years of age and older secured by the borrower’s residence. Lifetime mortgages are comparable to a home equity loan by allowing the borrower to utilize the equity in their home as collateral. The amount of the loan is dependent on the appraised value of the home at the time of origination, the borrower's age and interest rate. Unlike a home equity loan, no payment of principal or interest is required until the death of the borrower or sale of the home. Lifetime mortgages may also be either fully funded at origination, or the borrower can request periodic funding similar to a line of credit. Lifetime mortgages are subject to risks, including market, credit, interest rate, liquidity, operational, reputational and legal risks.
New Accounting Standards
Changes to the general accounting principles are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of accounting standards updates to the FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM.
See Note 2 – “Impact of Adoption of New Accounting Standard” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information on the Company’s adoption of ASU 2018-12 on January 1, 2023.

Market risk is the risk of fluctuations in the value of financial instruments as a result of absolute or relative changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, equity prices or commodity prices. To varying degrees, the Company products and services, and the investment activities supporting them, generate exposure to market risk. The market risk incurred, and the Company’s strategies for managing this risk, vary by product.  As of June 30, 2023, there have been no material changes in the Company’s economic exposure to market risk or the Company’s Enterprise Risk Management function from December 31, 2022, a description of which may be found in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2022, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk,” filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
ITEM 4.  Controls and Procedures
The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) during the quarter ended June 30, 2023, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1.  Legal Proceedings
The Company is subject to litigation and regulatory investigations or actions from time to time. Based on current knowledge, management does not believe that loss contingencies arising from pending legal, regulatory and governmental matters will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. However, in light of the inherent uncertainties involved in future or pending legal, regulatory and governmental matters, some of which are beyond the Company’s control, and indeterminate or potentially substantial amount of damages sought in any such matters, an adverse outcome could be material to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows for any particular reporting period. A legal reserve is established when the Company is notified of an arbitration demand, litigation or regulatory action or is notified that an arbitration demand, litigation or regulatory action is imminent, it is probable that the Company will incur a loss as a result and the amount of the probable loss is reasonably capable of being estimated.
ITEM 1A.  Risk Factors
There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report.

(1)RGA repurchased 351,431 shares of common stock under its share repurchase program in June 2023. The Company net settled issuing 2,455, 25,141 and 2,227 shares from treasury and repurchasing from recipients 752, 12,106 and 633 shares in April, May and June 2023, respectively, in settlement of income tax withholding requirements incurred by the recipients of equity incentive awards.
On February 25, 2022, RGA’s board of directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $400 million of RGA’s outstanding common stock. The authorization was effective immediately and does not have an expiration date. In connection with this authorization, the board of directors terminated the stock repurchase authority granted in 2019. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, RGA repurchased 722,774 shares of common stock under this program for $100 million.
The pace of repurchase activity depends on various factors such as the level of available cash, an evaluation of the costs and benefits associated with alternative uses of excess capital, such as acquisitions and in force reinsurance transactions, and RGA’s stock price.
ITEM 5.  Other Information
