What it owns
What Reinsurance Group of America reports owning in its annual reports to the SEC: buildings, land and equipment, real estate and locations, investments, intangible assets and inventory, at the end of its latest fiscal year and a year before.
The Company’s corporate headquarters is located at an owned site in Chesterfield, Missouri. In addition, the Company leases office space in various locations throughout the world. The Company believes that its existing facilities, including both owned and leased, are in good operating condition and suitable for the conduct of its business.
General American Reinsurance, a reinsurance division formed in 1973 by General American Life Insurance Company (GA), was the forerunner to RGA. By 1993, GA's reinsurance division had grown its life reinsurance in force to $114.7 billion. General American acquired the life reinsurance business of National Reinsurance of Canada, later renamed General American Life Reinsurance Company of Canada, thereby establishing its first international office; the Canadian business became RGA Life Reinsurance Company of Canada after RGA's initial public offering (IPO).
Incorporated in 1992 in the state of Missouri, Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated (RGA) was formed as a holding company for RGA's U.S. and Canadian reinsurance businesses. RGA was taken public by IPO in 1993 on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: RGA), with General American retaining a 65% share.
MetLife acquired General American in 2000, including its interest in RGA, and after 8 years of ownership, MetLife spun RGA off to become a fully independent company.
RGA's products and services include life reinsurance, living benefits reinsurance, group reinsurance, health reinsurance, financial solutions, facultative underwriting, and product development. "CBInsights".

Risk factors and legal proceedings
The risks Reinsurance Group of America names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Feb 20, 2026: 37 risks under these headings, as written.18
Risks Related to Our Business
We make assumptions when pricing our business relating to mortality, morbidity, lapsation, investment returns, expenses and other factors, and significant deviations in experience compared to our initial expectations could negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Our business, results of operations and financial condition have been, and may continue to be, adversely affected by epidemics and pandemics and responses thereto.
Acquisitions and significant transactions involve varying degrees of risk that could affect our profitability.
Our insurance subsidiaries are highly regulated, and changes in these regulations could negatively affect our business.
A downgrade in our ratings or in the ratings of our insurance subsidiaries could adversely affect our ability to compete.
The availability and cost of collateral, including letters of credit, asset trusts and other credit facilities, as well as regulatory changes relating to the use of captive insurance companies, could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Changes in equity markets, interest rates and volatility affect the profitability of variable annuities with guaranteed living benefits that we reinsure, which may have a material adverse effect on our business and profitability.
RGA is an insurance holding company, and our ability to pay principal, interest and dividends on securities is limited.
Our international operations involve inherent risks.
We rely significantly on third parties for various services, and we may be held responsible for obligations that arise from the acts or omissions of third parties.
We operate in a highly competitive and dynamic industry and competition and other factors could adversely affect our business.
The other 26 risks
Weak conditions in global capital markets and the economy, as well as inflation, may materially adversely affect our business and results of operations.
We could be subject to additional income tax liabilities.
Changes in accounting standards may adversely affect our reported results of operations and financial condition.
Our risk management policies and procedures could leave us exposed to unidentified or unanticipated risk, which could negatively affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
The failure in cyber or other information security systems, including a failure to maintain the security, confidentiality, integrity or privacy of sensitive data residing on such systems, as well as the occurrence of unanticipated events affecting our disaster recovery systems and business continuity planning, could impair our ability to conduct business effectively.
The development and adoption of artificial intelligence and its use and anticipated use by us or by third parties on whom we rely, may increase the operational risks discussed above or create new operational risks that we are not currently anticipating, which may otherwise adversely impact us.
Restrictions on the use of personal data and “big data” techniques could adversely affect our reputation and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Managing key employee attraction, retention and succession is critical to our success.
Catastrophic events could adversely affect our business, financial condition and operations.
Litigation and regulatory investigations and actions may result in financial losses or harm our reputation.
Risks Related to Our Investments
Adverse capital and credit market conditions and access to credit facilities may significantly affect our ability to meet liquidity needs, access to capital and cost of capital.
Difficult conditions in the global capital markets and the economy generally may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If our investment strategy is unsuccessful, we could suffer losses.
Interest rate fluctuations and economic disruptions could negatively affect the income we derive from the difference between the interest rates we earn on our investments and interest we pay under our reinsurance contracts.
The liquidity and value of some of our investments may become significantly diminished.
We could be forced to sell investments at a loss to cover policyholder withdrawals, recaptures of reinsurance treaties or other events.
Defaults, downgrades or other events impairing the value of our fixed maturity securities portfolio may reduce our earnings.
The defaults or deteriorating credit of other financial institutions could adversely affect us.
Defaults on our mortgage loans or the mortgage loans underlying our investments in mortgage-backed securities and volatility in performance of our investments in real estate related assets may adversely affect our profitability.
Our valuation of fixed maturity and equity securities and derivatives include methodologies, estimations and assumptions that are subject to differing interpretations and could result in changes to investment valuations that may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
The determination of the amount of allowances and impairments taken on our investments is highly subjective and could materially affect our financial condition or results of operations.
Our investments are reflected within the consolidated financial statements utilizing different accounting bases and accordingly we may not have recognized differences, which may be significant, between cost and fair value in our consolidated financial statements.
Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock
We may not pay dividends on our common stock.
Certain provisions in our articles of incorporation and bylaws, in Missouri law and in applicable insurance laws, may delay or prevent a change in control, which could adversely affect the price of our common stock.
Issuing additional shares may dilute the value or affect the price of our common stock.
The occurrence of various events may adversely affect the ability of RGA and its subsidiaries to fully utilize any net operating losses (“NOLs”) and other tax attributes.
Legal proceedings
The Company is subject to litigation in the normal course of its business. The Company currently has no material litigation. A legal reserve is established when the Company is notified of an arbitration demand or litigation or is notified that an arbitration demand or litigation 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.
