REINSURANCE GROUP OF AMERICA, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)


1.	~~Business and Basis of Presentation~~

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 ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February ~~27, 2020~~26, 2021 (the ~~“2019~~“2020 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, ~~2020.~~2021.

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.

~~Significant Accounting Policies~~ – ~~Update~~

The Company’s significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2 – “Significant Accounting Policies and Pronouncements” of the 2019 Annual Report. The significant accounting policies discussed below reflect the impact of the adoption of ~~Financial Instruments - Credit Losses~~ ~~on January 1, 2020.~~2. Earnings Per Share

~~Allowance for Credit Losses and Impairments – Fixed Maturity Securities Available-for-Sale~~

Beginning on January 1, 2020, credit losses are recognized through an allowance account. The Company identifies fixed maturity securities that could potentially have an allowance for credit losses by monitoring market events that could impact issuers’ credit ratings, business climates, management changes, litigation, government actions and other similar factors. The Company also monitors late payments, pricing levels, rating agency actions, key financial ratios, financial statements, revenue forecasts and cash flow projections as indicators of credit issues.

The Company reviews all securities on a case-by-case basis to determine whether a decline in value exists and whether an allowance for credit losses or impairment for non-credit losses should be recognized. The Company considers relevant facts and circumstances in evaluating whether a security is impaired due to credit or non-credit components. Relevant facts and circumstances considered include: (1) the reasons for the decline in fair value; (2) the issuer’s financial position and access to capital; and (3) the Company’s intent to sell a security or whether it is more likely than not it will be required to sell the security before the recovery of its amortized cost that, in some cases, may extend to maturity. To the extent the Company determines a security is deemed to be impaired, an allowance is recorded for credit losses and an impairment loss is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) for non-credit losses.

Impairment losses on fixed maturity securities recognized in the financial statements are dependent on the facts and circumstances related to the specific security. If the Company intends to sell a security or it is more likely than not that it would be required to sell a security before the recovery of its amortized cost, less any recorded credit loss, it recognizes an impairment loss in investment related gains (losses), net on the condensed consolidated statements of income for the difference between amortized cost and fair value.

The Company estimates the amount of the credit loss component of a fixed maturity security impairment as the difference between amortized cost and the present value of the expected cash flows of the security. The Company excludes accrued interest from the amortized cost and the present value of the expected cash flows of the security. The present value is determined using the best estimate cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate implicit to the security at the date of purchase or the current yield to

~~Table of Contents~~

accrete an asset-backed or floating rate security. The techniques and assumptions for establishing the best estimate cash flows vary depending on the type of security. The asset-backed securities’ cash flow estimates are based on security-specific facts and circumstances that may include collateral characteristics, expectations of delinquency and default rates, loss severity and prepayment speeds and structural support, including subordination and guarantees. The corporate fixed maturity security cash flow estimates are derived from scenario-based outcomes of expected corporate restructurings or the disposition of assets using security specific facts and circumstances including timing, security interests and loss severity.

The Company writes off uncollectible fixed maturity securities when (1) it has sufficient information to determine that the issuer of the security is insolvent or (2) it has received notice that the issuer of the security has filed for bankruptcy, and the collectability of the asset is expected to be adversely impacted by the bankruptcy.

In periods after an impairment loss is recognized for non-credit loss components on a fixed maturity security, the Company will report the impaired security as if it had been purchased on the date it was impaired and will continue to estimate the present value of the estimated cash flows of the security. Accordingly, the discount (or reduced premium) based on the new cost basis is accreted into net investment income over the remaining term of the fixed maturity security in a prospective manner based on the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows.

~~Impairments – Other Invested Assets~~

The Company considers its cost method investments for impairment when the carrying value of these investments exceeds the net asset value. The Company takes into consideration the severity and duration of this excess when deciding if the cost method investment is impaired. For equity method investments (including real estate joint ventures), the Company considers financial and other information provided by the investee, other known information and inherent risks in the underlying investments, as well as future capital commitments, in determining whether an impairment has occurred.

~~Mortgage Loans on Real Estate~~

Mortgage loans on real estate are carried at unpaid principal balances, net of any unamortized premium or discount and valuation allowances. Interest income is accrued on the principal amount of the mortgage loan based on its contractual interest rate. Amortization of premiums and discounts is recorded using the effective yield method. The Company accrues interest on loans until it is probable the Company will not receive interest, or the loan is 90 days past due. Interest income, amortization of premiums, accretion of discounts and prepayment fees are reported in investment income, net of related expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Valuation allowances on mortgage loans are computed on an expected loss basis using a model that utilizes probability of default and loss given default methods over the lifetime of the loan. Accrued interest is excluded from the calculation of valuation allowances. Within the reasonable and supportable forecast period (i.e. typically two years), valuation allowances for mortgage loans are established based on several pool-level loan assumptions, defaults and loss severity, loss expectations for loans with similar risk characteristics and industry statistics. These evaluations are revised as conditions change and new information becomes available. The model also includes the impact of expected changes in future macro-economic conditions. The Company reverts to historical loss information for periods beyond which it believes it is able to develop or obtain reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions.

A mortgage loan is considered to be impaired when, based on the current information and events, it is probable the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the mortgage agreement. Although all available and applicable factors are considered in the Company’s analysis, loan-to-value and debt service coverage ratios are the most critical factors in determining impairment. Impairments are based on the excess carrying value of the loan over the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate, the value of the loan’s collateral if the loan is in the process of foreclosure or is otherwise collateral-dependent, or the loan’s market value if the loan is being sold.

Any interest accrued or received on the net carrying amount of the impaired loan will be included in investment income or applied to the principal of the loan, depending on the assessment of the collectability of the loan. Mortgage loans deemed to be uncollectible or that have been foreclosed are charged off against the valuation allowances and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the valuation allowances. Changes in valuation allowances are reported in investment related gains (losses), net on the condensed consolidated statements of income.

The Company evaluates whether a mortgage loan modification represents a troubled debt restructuring. In a troubled debt restructuring, the Company grants concessions related to the borrower’s financial difficulties. Generally, the types of concessions include: reduction of the contractual interest rate, extension of the maturity date at an interest rate lower than current market interest rates and/or a reduction of accrued interest. The Company considers the amount, timing and extent of the concession granted in determining any impairment or changes in the specific valuation allowance recorded in connection with the troubled debt restructuring. Through the continuous monitoring process, the Company may have recorded a specific valuation allowance prior to when the mortgage loan is modified in a troubled debt restructuring. Accordingly, the carrying value (after specific valuation

~~Table of Contents~~

allowance) before and after modification through a troubled debt restructuring may not change significantly, or may increase if the expected recovery is higher than the pre-modification recovery assessment.

3.	~~Equity~~

~~On June 5, 2020, the Company completed a public offering~~Table of 6,172,840 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, at a public offering price of $81.00 per share. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $481 million. The Company granted the Underwriters an option to purchase from the Company, within 30 days after the Underwriting Agreement dated June 2, 2020, up to an additional 925,926 shares of common stock at the offering price of $81.00 per share. The Underwriters’ option was not exercised and expired on July 2, 2020. The Company anticipates using the net proceeds of the offering for general corporate purposes.Contents

The changes in the number of common stock issued, held in treasury and outstanding are as follows for the periods indicated:

Common Stock Held in Treasury

Common stock held in treasury is accounted for at average cost. Gains resulting from the reissuance of common stock held in treasury are credited to additional paid-in capital. Losses resulting from the reissuance of common stock held in treasury are charged first to additional paid-in capital to the extent the Company has previously recorded gains on treasury share transactions, then to retained earnings.

In January 2019, RGA’s board of directors authorized a 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. On August 3, 2021, the Company announced the lifting of the existing suspension on share repurchases. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, RGA did not repurchase any shares of common stock under this program. During the first six months of 2020, RGA repurchased 1,074,413 shares of common stock under this program for $153 million. During the first six months of 2019, RGA repurchased 344,237 shares of common stock under this program for $50 million. On May 6, 2020, the Company announced that it has suspended stock repurchases until further notice.

Allowance for Credit Losses and Impairments – Fixed Maturity Securities Available-for-Sale

As discussed in Note 12 – ~~“Business~~“Significant Accounting Policies and ~~Basis~~Pronouncements” of ~~Presentation,”~~the Company’s 2020 Annual Report, allowances for credit losses on fixed maturity securities are recognized in investment related gains (losses), net on the condensed consolidated statements of income. For these securities, the net 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 AOCI.

The following table presents the rollforward of the allowance for credit losses in fixed maturity securities by type for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020~~(dollars~~ (dollars in millions):

The Company has no intention to sell, nor does it expect to be required to sell, the securities outlined in the ~~table~~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 interest rates.

Investment Income and Investment Related Gains (Loss), Net – Accounting Correction

During the first quarter of 2021, the Company reclassified approximately $92 million of pre-tax unrealized gains from AOCI to investment income, net of related expenses associated with investments in limited partnerships and private equity funds for which it utilizes the equity method of accounting. The unrealized gains should have been recognized directly in investment income in the same prior periods they were reported by the investees. In addition, the Company recorded approximately $70 million of pre-tax gains in investment related gains (losses), net, associated with investments in limited partnerships considered to be investment companies in order to adjust the carrying value from cost less impairments to a fair value approach, using the net asset value (“NAV”) per share or its equivalent. Had the adjustments been recorded in the years they were reported by the investees, the Company estimates it would have recognized approximately $102 million, $(2) million, $1 million and $10 million of pre-tax income (loss) in the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

(1)Average recorded investment represents the average loan balances as of the beginning of period and all subsequent quarterly end of period balances.

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, ~~2020, $3.1~~2021, $4.7 billion of the funds withheld at interest balance is associated with ~~one client.~~two clients. For reinsurance agreements written on ~~a modified coinsurance (“modco”)~~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 on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.~~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.

Other Invested Assets

Other invested assets include limited partnership interests, joint ventures (other than operating joint ventures), lifetime mortgages, derivative contracts and fair value option (“FVO”) contractholder-directed unit-linked investments. Other invested assets also ~~includes~~include FHLB common stock, which is included in Other in the table below.

See Note 6 – “Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities” for additional disclosures related to the fair value hierarchy for derivative instruments, including embedded derivatives.

Types of Derivatives Used by the Company

Commonly used derivative instruments include, but are not necessarily limited to: credit default swaps, financial futures, equity options, foreign currency swaps, foreign currency forwards, interest rate swaps, synthetic guaranteed investment contracts (“GICs”), consumer price index (“CPI”) swaps, ~~longevity swaps, mortality swaps~~forward bond purchase commitments, and embedded derivatives.

For detailed information on these derivative instruments and the related strategies, see Note 5 – “Derivative Instruments” of the Company’s ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report.

Summary of Derivative Positions

Derivatives, except for embedded derivatives, ~~and longevity and mortality swaps,~~ are ~~carried on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets~~included in other invested ~~assets or other liabilities, at fair value. Longevity and mortality swaps, which have been discontinued or matured in 2019 are included on the condensed consolidated balance sheets in other~~ assets or other liabilities, at fair value. Embedded derivative assets and liabilities on modco or funds withheld arrangements are included on the condensed consolidated balance sheets with the host contract in funds withheld at interest, at fair value. Embedded derivative liabilities on indexed annuity and variable annuity products are included on the condensed consolidated balance sheets with the host contract in interest-sensitive contract liabilities, at fair value. The following table presents the notional amounts and gross fair value of derivative instruments prior to taking into account the netting effects of master netting agreements as of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019~~2020 (dollars in millions):

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; ~~and~~ (ii) certain interest rate swaps, in which the cash flows of assets are denominated in different currencies, commonly referred to as cross-currency ~~swaps.~~swaps; and (iii) forward bond purchase commitments.

The following tables present 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, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019~~2020 (dollars in millions):

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 qualified 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 in the condensed consolidated statements of income, except where otherwise noted.

A summary of the effect of non-hedging derivatives, including embedded derivatives, on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019~~2020 is as follows (dollars in millions):

Netting Arrangements and Credit Risk

Certain of the Company’s derivatives are subject to enforceable master netting arrangements and reported as a net asset or liability in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company nets all derivatives that are subject to such arrangements.

The Company has elected to include all derivatives, except embedded derivatives, in the table below, irrespective of whether they are subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or a similar agreement. See Note 4 – “Investments” for information regarding the Company’s securities borrowing, lending, and repurchase/reverse repurchase programs.

The following table provides information relating to the netting of the Company’s derivative instruments as of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019~~2020 (dollars in millions):

~~Credit Risk~~(1)Includes initial margin posted to a central clearing partner.

~~The Company had $4 million and no credit exposure related to its derivative contracts, as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.~~ The Company may be exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to derivative financial ~~instruments with a positive fair value.~~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 plus or minus any collateral posted or held by~~date. As of June 30, 2021, the ~~Company.~~Company had credit exposure of $18 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.

6. 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 fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value and describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Company’s Level 1 assets and liabilities are traded in active exchange markets.

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. 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 ~~what~~those other market participants would use when pricing similar assets and liabilities. Additionally, the Company’s embedded derivatives, all of which are associated with reinsurance treaties, ~~and longevity and mortality swaps,~~ are classified in Level 3 since their values include significant unobservable inputs.

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 ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report.

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 ~~2019~~2020 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 ~~which measurement at fair value in~~ periods subsequent to their initial recognition ~~is applicable~~ if they are determined to be impaired. During the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, the Company did not have any material assets that were measured at fair value due to impairment.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following table presents the carrying ~~amounts~~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, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019~~2020 (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 ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report. This table excludes any payables or receivables for collateral under repurchase or 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.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in ~~the~~ Note 2 – “Significant Accounting Policies and ~~Pronouncements~~Pronouncements” in ~~Note 2 of~~ the ~~consolidated financial statements accompanying~~Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the ~~2019~~Company’s 2020 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.

The Company has geographic-based and business-based operational segments. Geographic-based operations are further segmented into traditional and financial solutions businesses. Information related to revenues, income (loss) before income taxes and total assets of the Company for each reportable segment are summarized below (dollars in millions).

Funding of Investments

The Company’s commitments to fund investments as of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019~~2020 are presented in the following table (dollars in millions):

June 30, 2020 December 31, 2019

Limited partnership interests and joint ventures	$	867	$	678
Mortgage loans on real estate	175		199
Bank loans and private placements	541		194
Lifetime mortgages	46		43

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 a liability for expected credit losses associated with unfunded commitments of approximately $1 million and $2 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, which is included in other liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance ~~sheets, associated with unfunded commitments of approximately $1 million as of June 30, 2020.~~sheets.

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.

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.

Statutory Reserve Support

Certain RGA ~~through wholly-owned~~ subsidiaries ~~has~~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, ~~RGA has~~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, ~~RGA~~the Company would recognize a ~~right-of-use~~right to use asset and lease obligation. As of June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, 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, ~~2020~~2021 (dollars in millions):

Commitment Period: Maximum Potential Obligation
2035 2,627
2036 3,408

2037	2,850
2038	2,300
2039	11,350
2046	3,000

RGA has issued guarantees to third parties on behalf of its subsidiaries for the payment of amounts due under certain securities borrowing and repurchase arrangements, financing arrangements and office lease obligations, whereby, if a subsidiary fails to meet an obligation, RGA or one of its other subsidiaries will make a payment to fulfill the obligation. Additionally, in limited circumstances, treaty guarantees are granted to ceding companies in order to provide them additional security, particularly in cases where RGA’s subsidiary is relatively new, unrated, or not of a significant size, relative to the ceding company. Liabilities supported by the treaty guarantees, before consideration of any legally offsetting amounts due from the guaranteed party are reflected on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets in future policy benefits. Potential guaranteed amounts of future payments will vary depending on production levels and underwriting results. Guarantees related to securities borrowing and repurchase arrangements provide additional security to third parties should a subsidiary fail to provide securities when due. RGA’s guarantees issued as of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019~~2020 are reflected in the following table (dollars in millions):


	June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020

Table of 2019 were higher than the U.S. Statutory rate of 21.0% primarily as a result of valuation allowances established on losses in foreign jurisdictions, accrual of uncertain tax positions, and return to provision adjustments. These expenses were partially offset by benefits from differences in bases in foreign jurisdictions and excess tax benefits related to equity compensation.Contents

4011. Reinsurance

~~Table of Contents~~


~~11.~~	~~Reinsurance~~

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. At June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, no allowances were deemed necessary. The Company regularly evaluates the financial condition of the insurance companies from which it assumes and to which it cedes reinsurance.

Retrocessions are arranged through the Company’s retrocession pools for amounts in excess of the Company’s retention limit. As of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, 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 has been posted. In addition, the Company performs annual financial reviews of its retrocessionaires to evaluate financial stability and performance.

The following table presents information for the Company’s reinsurance ceded receivable assets, including the respective amount and A.M. Best rating for each reinsurer representing in excess of five percent of the total as of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 or December 31, ~~2019~~2020 (dollars in millions):

Rollforward of Claims and Claim Adjustment Expenses

The liability for unpaid claims is reported in future policy benefits and other policy claims and benefits on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Activity associated with unpaid claims is summarized below (dollars in millions):

Incurred claims associated with prior periods are primarily due to events, related to long-duration business, which were incurred in prior periods but were reported in the current period, and to a lesser extent, 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.

14. New Accounting Standards


~~14.~~	~~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 Codification™. Accounting standards updates not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

4238



Description			Date of Adoption		Effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements
Standards adopted:
~~Leases~~ This new standard, based on the principle that entities should recognize assets and liabilities arising from leases, does not significantly change the lessees’ recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows from the previous accounting standard. Leases are classified as finance or operating. The new standard’s primary change is the requirement for entities to recognize a lease liability for payments and a right of use asset representing the right to use the leased asset during the term of operating lease arrangements. Lessees are permitted to make an accounting policy election to not recognize the asset and liability for leases with a term of twelve months or less. Lessors’ accounting is largely unchanged from the previous accounting standard. In addition, the new standard expands the disclosure requirements of lease arrangements. Early adoption is permitted.			~~January 1, 2019~~	This guidance was adopted by applying the optional transition method. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position. The adoption of the updated guidance resulted in the Company recognizing a right-to-use asset and lease liability of $55 million included in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
~~Derivatives and Hedging~~ This updated guidance improves the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements and make certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of the hedge accounting in current GAAP related to the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Early adoption is permitted.	~~January 1, 2019~~	This guidance was adopted by applying a modified retrospective approach to existing hedging relationships as of the date of adoption. The adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position. Upon adoption of the guidance, the Company recorded an immaterial adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance was effective and modified some disclosures.
Financial Instruments – Credit Losses This guidance adds to U.S. GAAP an impairment model, known as current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model, that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. For traditional and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, loans and other instruments entities will be required to use the new forward-looking “expected loss” model that generally will result in earlier recognition of allowance for losses. For available-for-sale debt securities with unrealized losses, entities will measure credit losses similar to what they do today, except the losses will be recognized through an allowance for credit losses and adjusted each period for changes in credit risks. Early adoption is permitted.	January 1, 2020			For asset classes within the scope of the CECL model, this guidance was adopted through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings (that is, a modified-retrospective approach). For available-for-sale debt securities, this guidance was applied prospectively. The allowance for credit losses increased when this guidance was adopted to include expected losses over the lifetime of commercial mortgages and other loans, including reasonable and supportable forecasts and expected changes in future economic conditions. The overall impact was an approximate $15 million pre-tax increase in the allowance for credit losses. This increase was reflected as a decrease to opening retained earnings, net of income taxes, as of January 1, 2020. ~~See Note 1 – “Business and Basis of Presentation” for more information.~~
Fair Value Measurement This guidance is part of the FASB’s disclosure framework project and eliminates certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurement, requires entities to disclose new information and modifies existing disclosure requirements. Early adoption is permitted.			January 1, 2020		Certain disclosure changes in the new guidance were applied prospectively in the year of adoption. The remaining changes in the new guidance were applied retrospectively to all periods presented in the year of adoption. As of December 31, 2019, the Company early adopted the guidance that removed the requirements relating to transfers between fair value hierarchy levels and certain disclosures about valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. The Company adopted the remainder of the guidance on January 1, 2020. The adoption of the new guidance was not material to the Company’s financial position.
Reference Rate Reform On July 27, 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (the “FCA”) announced that it intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit London Interbank Offered Rates (“LIBOR”) after December 31, 2021. In addition, separate workstreams are underway in Europe and the U.S. to reform existing reference rates and provide a fall back rate upon discontinuation of LIBOR. During 2019, the Alternative Rates Committee of the Federal Reserve Board proposed the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as an alternative rate to replace U.S. Dollar LIBOR, and the European Central Bank recommended the Euro Short-term Rate (“ESTER”) as the new risk-free rate. Other jurisdictions are conducting similar exercises as well. This ~~new~~ guidance eases the potential burden in accounting for, or recognizing the effects of, reference rate reform on financial reporting. which includes the transition away from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). The ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP modification to contracts and hedge accounting relationships affected by reference rate reform on financial reporting. Under the new guidance, a change in the reference rate for a contract that meets certain criteria will be accounted for as a continuation of that contract rather than the creation of a new contract. The new guidance applies to debt, insurance contracts, leases, derivative contracts and other arrangements.			January 1, 2020		~~This guidance does~~The reference rate reform is not expected to have ~~any~~material accounting consequences. The Company has ~~put together~~established a team that is currently assessing the effects of the discontinuation of LIBOR on existing contracts that extend beyond 2021 (that is, the date when the Financial Conduct Authority intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit LIBOR), by analyzing contractual fallback provisions, evaluating alternative rate ramifications and assessing the effects on current hedging ~~strategies.~~ strategies, systems and operations.



Description	Anticipated Date of Adoption	Effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements
Standards not yet adopted:
Financial Services – Insurance This guidance significantly changes how insurers account for long-duration insurance contracts. The new guidance also significantly expands the disclosure requirements of long-duration insurance contracts. The new guidance is ~~currently~~ effective for annual and interim reporting ~~periods beginning January 1, 2022. The FASB has tentatively agreed to defer the effective date by one year. Upon issuance of a final standard, the new guidance will be effective for annual and interim~~ periods beginning January 1, 2023. Below are the most significant areas of change:	January 1, 2023	See each significant area of change below for the method of adoption and expected impact to the Company’s results of operations and financial position.
Cash flow assumptions for measuring liability for future policy benefits The new guidance requires insurers to review, and if necessary, update the cash flow assumptions used to measure liabilities for future policy benefits periodically. The change in the liability estimate as a result of updating cash flow assumptions will be recognized in net income.		Cash flow assumptions for measuring liability for future policy benefits The Company will likely adopt this guidance on a modified retrospective basis as of the earliest period presented in the year of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this amendment on its results of operations and financial position but anticipates the updated guidance will likely have a material impact.
Discount rate assumption for measuring liability for future policy benefits The new guidance requires insurers to update the discount rate assumption used to measure liabilities for future policy benefits at each reporting period, and the discount rate utilized must be based on an upper-medium grade fixed income instrument yield. The change in the liability estimate as a result of updating the discount rate assumption will be recognized in other comprehensive income.		Discount rate assumption for measuring liability for future policy benefits The Company will likely adopt this guidance on a modified retrospective basis as of the earliest period presented in the year of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this amendment on its results of operations and financial position but anticipates the updated guidance will likely have a material impact.
Market risk benefits The new guidance created a new category of benefit features called market risk benefits that will be measured at fair value with changes in fair value attributable to a change in the instrument-specific credit risk recognized in other comprehensive income.		Market risk benefits The Company will adopt this guidance on a retrospective basis as of the earliest period presented in the year of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this amendment on its results of operations and financial position but anticipates the updated guidance will likely have a material impact.
Amortization of deferred acquisition costs (“DAC”) and other balancesThe new guidance requires DAC and other balances to be amortized on a constant level basis over the expected term of the related contracts.		Amortization of deferred acquisition costs (“DAC”) and other balances The Company will likely adopt this guidance on a modified retrospective basis as of the earliest period presented in the year of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this amendment on its results of operations and financial position but anticipates the updated guidance will likely have a material impact.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 including, among others, statements relating to projections of the future operations, strategies, earnings, revenues, income or loss, ratios, financial performance and growth potential of the Company. Forward-looking statements often contain words and phrases such as “intend,” “expect,” “project,” “estimate,” “predict,” “anticipate,” “should,” “believe” and other similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on the Company. Forward-looking statements are not a guarantee of future performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified. Future events and actual results, performance, and achievements could differ materially from those set forth in, contemplated by or underlying the forward-looking statements.

The effects of the ~~ongoing novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”)~~COVID-19 pandemic and the response thereto on economic conditions, the financial markets and insurance risks, and the resulting effects on the Company’s financial results, liquidity, capital resources, financial metrics, investment portfolio and stock price, could cause actual results and events to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements. Further, any estimates, projections, illustrative scenarios or frameworks used to plan for potential effects of the pandemic are dependent on numerous underlying assumptions and estimates that may not materialize.

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 ~~$80.7~~$88.9 billion as of June 30, ~~2020.~~2021. 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~~The Company’s long-term profitability largely depends on the volume and amount of ~~death-and~~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 ~~capital solutions transactions, such as~~ 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.

~~The COVID-19 Pandemic Impact and Update~~

The ongoing COVID-19 global pandemic and the response to it has caused, and will continue to cause, increases in mortality, morbidity and other insurance risks, as well as significant disruption in the international and U.S. economies and financial markets. The extent to which the Company’s future results continue to be affected by COVID-19 will largely depend on, among other factors, country-specific circumstances, measures by public and private institutions, COVID-19’s impact on all other causes of death and the timing of effective treatments and/or a vaccine for COVID-19. Given these many variables, the Company cannot reliably predict the future impact of the pandemic on its business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, clients’ ability to write new business in this environment may result in a slowdown in the Company’s new business temporarily, however, much of the Company’s premiums and other revenues are contractually recurring for many years to come.

One of the Company’s priorities continues to be the safety and well-being of its employees and clients, as such its business continuity plans are still activated and the actions taken to protect both employees and clients, such as working from home, restricting travel, conducting meetings remotely, and reinforcing the importance of face coverings, good hygiene and social distancing, also continue. The Company’s offices worldwide are at a minimum adhering to local government mandates and guidelines regarding occupancy levels, however in certain situations the Company’s guidelines are more restrictive than those of local governments.

The Company has not currently experienced any significant disruptions to its daily operations, despite most of its workforce continuing to work remotely. Expenses incurred to implement its business continuity plans, including work from home arrangements, are not material and have been more than offset by reduced travel and other expenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. However, COVID-19 may create operational risks and related impacts, which may include a reduction in new business volumes from slower sales, impacts to the Company’s workforce productivity due to travel restrictions, temporary office closures and increased remote working situations, and potential client delays in paying premiums and reporting claims. The Company is heavily reliant on timely reporting from its clients and other third parties. While operational risks, including privacy and cybersecurity risks, are heightened during remote working situations the Company has implemented increased communication related to these risks to all its workforce and continues to monitor its programs, processes and procedures designed to manage these risks.

Given the many variables and uncertainties in the amounts and timing of claims, the Company is unable to reliably predict the ultimate claims it will experience as a result of the pandemic, however an infectious pandemic will negatively impact the profitability of the Company’s life and health business due to increased claims. The variables and uncertainties include age, gender, comorbidities, other insured versus general population characteristics, geography-specific institutional and individual mitigating

actions, medical capacity, and other factors. To date, general population COVID-19 deaths have been heavily concentrated in individuals aged 70 and older and with pre-existing comorbidities. The Company’s insured population has lower exposure to older ages than the general population and covers a generally healthier population due to underwriting and socioeconomic factors of those purchasing insurance.

Following revisions to the Company’s model, based on updated external data and the Company’s claim experience to date, which revised models are subject to the many variables and uncertainties noted above, the financial impact of COVID-19 on the Company is projected to be lower than previous estimates for the same level of general population deaths. The U.S. is expected to continue being the key driver of mortality claim costs, followed by the UK and Canada. Utilizing the Company’s updated model and assuming, beginning in the third quarter, an additional 200,000 U.S future general population deaths, 50,000 future general population deaths in the UK, 10,000 future general population deaths in Canada as well as representative amounts in the Company’s other global markets, the resulting impact on the Company is estimated to be an additional $400 million to $600 million of pre-tax mortality claim costs beginning in the third quarter. These estimates assume that all COVID-19 claims are marginal extra claims and not accelerations of claims. In addition, the Company’s longevity business is expected to act as a modest offset to excess life reinsurance claims and has not been netted from the estimates above. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company estimates it has incurred $300 million of COVID-19 related life and health claim costs, including amounts incurred but not reported, with approximately $240 million of that amount being associated with U.S. Individual Mortality.However, as is normally the case, a more in depth review of claims will occur as clients provide additional information regarding cause of death in subsequent months. In some cases, cause of death may not specifically be identified as COVID-19 related even though such may be the case. The Company did experience a higher incidence of older age death claims in the U.S. during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, and the highest mortality ratios were in states with the highest general population COVID-19 deaths. Additional analysis and information from clients will allow the Company to refine the impact of COVID-19 on current quarter and year to date results.

The global financial markets continue to be in a state of uncertainty due to COVID-19 mandated economic shutdowns and historically large and rapid central bank and fiscal policies meant to offset the economic impact of the pandemic. The economic weakness and uncertainty caused by these events may also adversely affect the Company’s financial performance. 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. The current market environment may result in certain investments being downgraded which can affect conformance with these limits. The Company expects to incur a higher-than-normal level of investment impairments during the remainder of 2020, however it is unable to predict the amount of such impairments. The level of such impairments will depend on broad economic conditions and the pace at which global economies recover from the effects of COVID-19. The Company recognized $34 million of impairment losses and changes in the credit allowance for its available-for-sale fixed maturities for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The net impact to the credit allowance for available-for-sale fixed maturity securities was immaterial for the second quarter as new allowances were offset by sales and improved fair values on previously impaired securities.The valuation allowance on mortgage loans increased by $17 million and $30 million for the three and six month ended June 30, 2020, respectively. During the second quarter the Company recognized $5 million of impairments on limited partnerships. In addition, the Company may experience a short-term decrease in cash flows from its commercial mortgage loan portfolio as it assists borrowers that are affected by the current economic environment. See “Investments” for more information.

The Company’s liquidity is monitored and managed on a daily basis to ensure all current and future liquidity demands can be met, and that it maintains access to liquidity resources to meet even extreme tail risk liquidity needs. In addition, RGA maintains a number of arm’s length arrangements for mobilizing liquidity throughout the group. Like many companies, liquidity is being enhanced by holding more cash received in the course of its normal operating and investing activities. The Company also suspended common stock repurchases until further notice.

~~Key liquidity resources available to the group include:~~

~~Holdings of cash and cash equivalents of $4.3 billion as of June 30, 2020,~~

~~Cash flows from investments, which is approximately $2 billion per year,~~

~~Access to $850 million of cash through the Company’s committed syndicated credit facility, and~~

~~Access to over $500 million of cash through the membership in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines.~~

In order to further enhance its capital and liquidity position, the Company executed two capital market transactions during the quarter. On June 5, 2020, the Company completed an offering of its common stock and received net proceeds of approximately $481 million. On June 9, 2020, the Company completed the offering of $600 million aggregate principal amount of its 3.150% Senior Notes due 2030 (the “Senior Notes”), which will be used to repay the $400 million 5.000% senior notes due 2021 and for general corporate purposes. The public offering price of the Senior Notes was 99.472% of the principal amount, and the Company received net proceeds of approximately $593 million.

~~Additional sources of liquidity for RGA’s operating subsidiaries include near-term reinsurance cash flows, sales of invested assets, and potentially other forms of borrowing.~~

RGA’s operating subsidiaries continue to be well capitalized and the Company continues to monitor its solvency position under multiple capital regimes on a regular basis while considering both its developing experience and economic conditions. In addition, the Company utilizes its internal capital model to assess its ability to meet its long-term obligations under a range of stress scenarios on a consolidated basis. This internal capital model is also used as the capital basis for RGA’s consolidated Own Risk and Solvency Assessment.

The Company’s primary insurance subsidiaries’ financial strength ratings are strong, with all having an S&P rating of AA-, and some of those also having a Moody’s rating of A1, and an A.M. Best rating of A+. In addition, even though the insurance subsidiaries’ various capital ratios and solvency measures may be somewhat weakened due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the economic environment, RGA believes its various subsidiaries would remain financially solvent under such a pandemic scenario. Reinsurance treaties, whether facultative or automatic, generally provide recapture provisions. Most U.S. based reinsurance treaties include a recapture right for ceding companies, generally after 10 years. Outside of the U.S., treaties primarily include a mutually agreed-upon recapture provision. Recapture rights permit the ceding company to reassume all or a portion of the risk formerly ceded to the reinsurer. In some situations, the Company has the right to place assets in trust for the benefit of the ceding company in lieu of recapture. Additionally, certain treaties may grant recapture rights to ceding companies in the event of a significant decrease in RGA Reinsurance Company’s NAIC risk based capital ratio or financial strength rating. The RBC ratio trigger varies by treaty, with the majority between 125% and 225% of the NAIC’s company action level. Financial strength rating triggers vary by reinsurance treaty with the majority of the triggers reached if the specific legal entity’s financial strength rating falls five notches from its current rating of “AA-” to the “BBB” level on the S&P scale. Similar solvency and ratings based on recapture rights exist on treaties with other operating companies. Recapture of business previously ceded does not affect premiums ceded prior to the recapture of such business, but would reduce premiums and insurance liabilities in subsequent periods. Upon recapture, the Company would reflect a net gain or loss on the settlement of the assets and liabilities associated with the reinsurance treaty. In some cases, the ceding company is required to pay the Company a recapture fee.

Globally, regulators are closely monitoring the COVID-19 pandemic and its possible impact on the insurance industry. Various regulators and other authorities have been requiring regulated entities to review their business continuity plans and to address potential pandemic risk in their contingency plans. In addition, some regulators have adopted or are considering adopting measures to provide temporary relief in respect to certain regulatory requirements and also to policyholders. These regulatory initiatives have accompanied a range of measures by governments and central banks, such as interest rate cuts and other measures, in a number of jurisdictions to support and stimulate the economy. The Company expects that regulators and other authorities will continue monitoring the spread and effects of COVID-19 closely over the next few months and adapt their guidance and additional requirements as the situation develops.

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 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

Income taxes.

A discussion of each of the critical accounting policies may be found in the Company’s ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies.”

Consolidated Results of Operations

Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic

The ~~following table summarizes net income~~COVID-19 global pandemic continues to cause increases in the Company’s claims costs, primarily relating to its mortality business. However, the Company cannot reliably predict the future impact of the pandemic on its business, results of operations and financial condition as the impact will largely depend on, among other factors, the impact of new variants of the virus, successful rollout of the vaccination programs globally, country-specific circumstances, measures by public and private institutions, and COVID-19’s impact on all other causes of death. In addition, the Company’s clients’ ability to write new business in this environment may result in a slowdown in new business temporarily; however, much of the Company’s premiums and other revenues are contractually recurring for many years to come.

The ultimate amount and timing of claims the ~~periods presented.~~Company will experience as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic will be dependent on many variables and uncertainties. These variables and uncertainties include those discussed above, in addition to age, gender, comorbidities, other insured versus general population characteristics, geography-specific institutional and individual mitigating actions, medical capacity, and other factors. To date, general population COVID-19 deaths have been heavily concentrated in individuals aged 70 and older and with pre-existing comorbidities. The Company’s insured population has lower exposure to older ages than the general population and covers a generally healthier population due to underwriting and socioeconomic factors of those purchasing insurance.

~~Consolidated income before income taxes decreased $65 million,~~The Company’s COVID-19 projection and ~~$378 million, for~~financial impact models continue to be updated and refined based on updated external data and the ~~three~~Company’s claim experience to date and are subject to the many variables and uncertainties noted above. The U.S. is the key driver of mortality claim costs followed by the UK, India, South Africa and Canada. For the six ~~months~~month period ended June 30, 2020, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2019. The decrease in income for the second quarter of 2020 was primarily due to increased mortality claims in the U.S. and Latin America Traditional segment, some of which are attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic. The unfavorable mortality claims in the U.S. were partially offset by favorable morbidity results across all segments and an increase in income before taxes in the Company’s Financial Solutions business. In addition to increased mortality claims

~~Table of Contents~~

in the U.S. and Latin America Traditional segment, income for the first six months of 2020 reflects unfavorable changes in investment related gain (losses) resulting from changes in the fair value of embedded derivatives on modco or funds withheld treaties within the U.S. segment due to changes in interest rates and credit spreads primarily attributable to the recent disruption in the global financial markets caused by COVID-19. The effect of the change in fair value of these embedded derivatives on income is discussed below. ~~As discussed in “The COVID-19 Impact and Update” above,~~2021, the Company estimates it has incurred ~~$300~~approximately $595 million of COVID-19 related life and health claim costs, including amounts incurred but not reported, with approximately ~~$240~~$352 million of that amount being associated with the U.S. ~~Individual Mortality.~~and Latin America Traditional segment. The Company ~~did~~has updated the range of COVID-19 mortality claim cost estimates relative to the level of general population deaths. The U.S. range was lowered reflecting developing data and go forward expectations. The ranges for the UK and Canada were widened, reflective of our experience as well as the expectation that a ~~higher incidence~~lower number of ~~older age death claims~~COVID-19 general population deaths will result in more variability in the relationship to claims costs. The Company estimates that every additional 10,000 population deaths in the U.S., UK, or Canada as a result of COVID-19 would result in the following corresponding excess mortality claims of approximately:

•$10 million to $20 million in the U.S.;

•$4 million to $8 million in the UK; and

•$10 million to $20 million in Canada.

While the global financial markets have stabilized since the beginning of the pandemic, they continue to be in a state of uncertainty due to COVID-19 mandated economic shutdowns and historically large and rapid central bank and fiscal policies meant to offset the economic impact of the pandemic. The economic weakness and uncertainty caused by these events may also adversely affect the Company’s financial performance. 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. The current market environment may result in certain investments being downgraded which can affect conformance with these limits. The level of potential impairments will depend on broad economic conditions and the pace at which global economies recover from the effects of COVID-19 and the response thereto. See “Investments” for more information.

The safety and well-being of the Company’s employees and clients continues to be a priority. The Company’s business continuity plans remain activated and the actions taken during 2020 to protect both employees and clients, such as working from home, restricting travel, conducting meetings remotely, and reinforcing the importance of face coverings, good hygiene and social distancing, also continue. The Company’s offices worldwide are at a minimum adhering to local government mandates and guidelines regarding occupancy levels; however, in certain situations the Company’s guidelines are more restrictive than those of local governments.

The Company has not experienced any significant disruptions to its daily operations, despite most of its workforce working remotely. However, COVID-19 heightened operational risks and related impacts, which may include a reduction in new business volumes from slower sales, impacts to the Company’s workforce productivity due to travel restrictions, temporary office closures and increased remote working situations, and potential client delays in paying premiums and reporting claims. Similar to other reinsurers, the Company is heavily reliant on timely reporting from its clients and other third parties. The Company continues to emphasize awareness and training regarding operational risks, including privacy and cybersecurity risks, as such risks are heightened during remote working situations. In addition, the Company continues to monitor its programs, processes and procedures designed to manage these risks.

RGA’s operating subsidiaries continue to be well capitalized, and the Company continues to monitor its solvency position under multiple capital regimes on a regular basis while considering both its developing experience and economic conditions. In addition, the Company utilizes its internal capital model to assess its ability to meet its long-term obligations under a range of stress scenarios on a consolidated basis. This internal capital model is also used as the capital basis for RGA’s consolidated Own Risk and Solvency Assessment.

•A one-time adjustment of $162 million, pretax, associated with prior periods that includes $92 million, pretax, to correct the accounting for equity method limited partnerships to reflect unrealized gains in investment income, net of related expenses that were previously included in accumulated other comprehensive income, and a $70 million, pretax, correction reflected in other investment related gains (losses), net to adjust the carrying value of certain limited partnerships from cost less impairments to a fair value approach, using the net asset value (“NAV”) per share or its equivalent.

•$177 million, pretax, of capital gains included in other investment related gains (losses), net associated with portfolio repositioning.

•Changes in fair value of embedded derivatives, associated with modco/funds withheld treaties, increased investment related gains by $66 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2021, compared to a decrease of $229 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2020.

•The increases in investment income and investment related gains (losses), net were partially offset by unfavorable claims, primarily in the EMEA and U.S. and Latin America segments.

•As discussed in the “Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic” above, the Company estimates it has incurred approximately $595 million, pretax, of COVID-19 related life and health claim costs, ~~to COVID-19 or COVID-19 related factors~~including amounts incurred but not reported, with approximately $352 million, pretax, in the U.S. and ~~therefore additional analysis and information from clients will allow the Company to refine the impact of COVID-19 on current quarter and year to date results.~~ Latin America segment.

Foreign currency fluctuations ~~relative to the prior year decreased~~can result in variances in financial statement line items. Foreign currency increased income before ~~income~~ taxes ~~by $6 million in the second quarter and decreased income by $2 million in the first six months of 2020, as compared to the same periods in 2019.~~

~~Consolidated net premiums increased $26 million, or 1%, and 107 million, or 1.9%,~~ for the three and six ~~months~~month periods ended June 30, ~~2020, as~~2021, by $14 million and $18 million, respectively, primarily due to the strengthening of the Great British Pound and Canadian Dollar compared to the ~~same periods~~U.S. Dollar.

Premiums and business growth

The increase in ~~2019,~~premiums during the three and six month period ended June 30, 2021, is primarily due to growth in life reinsurance in force. ~~Foreign currency fluctuations decreased net premiums by $45 million and $78 million in the second quarter and the first six months of 2020, as compared to the same periods in 2019.~~ Consolidated assumed life insurance in force increased to $3,471.7 billion as of June 30, 2021, from $3,457.8 billion as of June 30, 2020, ~~from $3,377.2 billion as of June 30, 2019,~~ due to new business production and in force ~~transactions.~~transactions offset by an increase in lapses and mortality claims in the current period, primarily attributable to the increased claims as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The Company added new business production, measured by face amount of insurance in force, of ~~$116.1~~$220.9 billion, and ~~$70.4~~$210.9 billion during the ~~second quarter of 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $210.9 billion and $149.7 billion during the first~~ six months ofended June 30, 2021 and 2020, ~~and 2019,~~ respectively.

~~Consolidated~~Investment income, net of related expenses and investment related gains (losses), net

The increase in investment income, net of related expenses ~~increased $61 million, or 10.4%, and $75 million, or 6.4%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared~~is primarily attributable to the ~~same periods~~aforementioned accounting correction associated with equity method limited partnerships recorded in ~~2019. The increases are primarily attributable~~the first quarter of 2021, in addition to an increase in the average invested asset ~~base. Investment income is affected by changes in the fair value of the Company’s funds withheld at interest assets associated with the reinsurance of certain EIA products.~~ base and yield:

•The re-measurement of these funds withheld assets decreased investment income by $7 million in the second quarter and decreased investment income by $19 million in the first six months of 2020. The effect on investment income of the EIA's market value changes is substantially offset by a corresponding change in interest credited to policyholder account balances resulting in an insignificant effect on net income.

~~Average~~average invested assets at amortized cost, excluding spread ~~related~~ business, totaled $33.3 billion for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020, were $30~~2021, compared to $30.0 billion ~~a 6.4% increase over~~for the six months ended June 30, ~~2019.~~ 2020.

•The average yield earned on investments, excluding spread related business, was ~~4.07%~~4.64% and ~~4.38%~~4.07% for the ~~second quarter of~~three month period ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, ~~and 2019,~~ respectively, and ~~4.07%~~5.15% and ~~4.43%~~4.07% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, ~~and 2019,~~ respectively. The average yield will vary from quarter to quarter and year to year depending on a number of variables, including the prevailing interest rate and credit spread environment, prepayment fees, make-whole premiums and changes in the mix of the underlying investments and cash balances, and the timing of dividends and distributions on certain investments.

A continued low interest rate environment, in addition to higher cash and cash equivalents balances held by the Company during the COVID-19 pandemic, is expected to put downward pressure on this yield in future reporting periods. 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, including unrealized gains and losses on certain limited partnerships, will also vary from year to year and can be highly variable based on equity-market performance and 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.

•During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company repositioned its portfolio generating capital gains of $23 million and ~~$12~~$177 million, respectively.

•There were no material impairments or changes in allowance for credit losses on fixed maturities during the ~~second quarter~~three months ended June 30, 2021 or June 30, 2020.

U.S. and Latin America Operations

The U.S. and Latin America operations include business generated by ~~its~~the Company’s offices in the U.S., Mexico and Brazil. The offices in Mexico and Brazil provide services to clients in other Latin American countries. 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,~~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 and other longevity type products.~~ 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 ~~their~~the low-risk nature ~~as such~~of the transactions, therefore only the related net fees are reflected in other revenues on the condensed consolidated statements of ~~income.~~income.

The ~~decrease~~increase in income before income taxes in the second quarter of 2021 was the result of a nine percent decrease in claims and other policy benefits in the U.S. Traditional segment, strong performance from Financial Solutions related to both experience gains, an increase in transaction and other fees, as well as higher variable investment income from real estate joint ventures and unrealized gains from investments in limited partnerships. The increase in income before income taxes for the first six months of 2021 is also attributable to the impact of embedded derivatives in U.S. Financial Solutions. Partially offsetting the six month increase were realized capital losses compared to realized capital gains in 2020 and significantly higher claims in U.S. Mortality Markets. The significant increase in claims in the U.S. Mortality Markets during the first six months compared to the same period in 2020 was primarily related to ~~a significant~~an increase in large and non-large claim frequency within the individual mortality ~~business.~~business in the first three months of 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020. While the cause of death is not yet available for all claims, the Company believes the excess claim costs are primarily attributable to ~~COVID-19 or COVID-19 related factors as~~ COVID-19.

~~the Company did experience a higher incidence~~Table of ~~older age death claims in the U.S. during the three months ended June 30, 2020, and the highest mortality ratios were in states with the highest general population COVID-19 deaths.~~Contents

Also, contributing to the six month variance were changes in the value of the embedded derivatives associated with reinsurance treaties structured on a modco or funds withheld basis. The volatility in the financial markets as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, was the primary driver of this change.

Asset-Intensive Reinsurance

The increase before income taxes ~~is affected by~~for U.S. and Latin America Financial Solutions’ Asset-intensive segment for the ~~spread between the investment income and the interest credited on the underlying products.~~

The increase for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020 and 2019, respectively. While these ratios are expected to remain in a predictable range, they may fluctuate from period to period~~2021, was also due to ~~varying allowance levels within coinsurance-type arrangements. In addition,~~ the ~~amortization pattern of previously capitalized amounts, which are subject to the form~~net increase in fair value of the ~~reinsurance agreement and the underlying insurance policies, may vary. Also, the mix~~embedded derivatives.

The invested asset base supporting this segment increased to $26.7 billion as of ~~first year coinsurance business versus yearly renewable term business can cause the percentage to fluctuate from period to period.~~

~~Other operating expenses decreased $8 million, or 21.6%, and $7 million, or 10%, for the three and six months ended~~ June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, from $23.5 billion as ~~compared to the same periods in 2019.~~ of June 30, 2020.

The expense ratio tends to fluctuate only slightly from period to period due to the maturity and scale of this segment.

~~Financial Solutions~~ – ~~Asset-Intensive Reinsurance~~

Asset-Intensive reinsurance within the U.S. and Latin America Financial Solutions segment primarily involves assuming investment risk within underlying annuities and corporate-owned life insurance policies. Most of these agreements are coinsurance, coinsurance with funds withheld ~~or modco. The Company recognizes profits or losses primarily from the spread between the investment income earned and the~~at interest, ~~credited on the underlying deposit liabilities, income~~of which greater than 90% was associated with ~~longevity risk, and fees associated with variable annuity account values and guaranteed investment contracts.~~two clients.

Impact of certain ~~derivatives:~~derivatives

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, as well as embedded derivatives associated with the Company’s reinsurance of equity-indexed annuities and variable annuities 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, the Company’s own credit risk 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, net of related hedging activity, and the primary factors that drive profitability of the underlying treaties, namely investment income, fee income (included in other revenues), and interest credited. These fluctuations are considered unrealized by management and do not affect current cash flows, crediting rates or spread performance on the underlying treaties.

The following table summarizes the asset-intensive results and quantifies the impact of these embedded derivatives 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.

Guaranteed Minimum Benefit Riders – Represents the impact related to guaranteed minimum benefits associated with the Company’s reinsurance of variable annuities. The fair value changes of the guaranteed minimum benefits along with the changes in fair value of the free standing derivatives (interest rate swaps, financial futures and equity options), purchased by the Company to substantially hedge the liability are reflected in revenues, while the related impact on deferred acquisition expenses is reflected in benefits and expenses. ~~The Company’s utilization of a credit valuation adjustment did not have a material effect on the change~~Changes in fair ~~value~~values of ~~these~~the embedded derivatives on guaranteed minimum benefits are net of an increase (decrease) in investment related gains (losses), net of $(8) million and $29 million for the second quarter and $(63) million and $127 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, ~~and 2019.~~respectively, associated with the Company’s utilization of a credit valuation adjustment.

The changes in derivatives 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), credit valuation adjustments, 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 the primary factors that drive profitability of the underlying treaties, namely investment income, fee income (included in other revenues) and interest credited.

The increase was primarily due to a number of new transactions offsetting the termination of certain agreements, as well as organic growth on existing transactions. Fees earned from this business can vary significantly depending on the size of the transactions and the timing of their completion and therefore can fluctuate from period to period.

•At June 30, 2021 and 2020, the amount of reinsurance assumed from client companies, as measured by pre-tax statutory surplus, risk based capital and other financial structures was $22.3 billion and $19.4 billion, respectively.

Other revenues increased by $1 million and decreased by $1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the same periods in 2019. These variances were primarily due to gains and losses related to foreign currency transactions.

Loss ratios for this segment were 85.0% and 78.1% for the second quarter and 84.8% and 78.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increases in the loss ratios were due to less favorable individual life mortality experience as compared to the same periods in 2019.

Overall, while these ratios are expected to remain in a predictable range, they may fluctuate from period to period due to varying allowance levels and product mix. The decreases in the policy acquisition and other insurance expenses as percentage of net premiums was the result of a reduction in creditor business which has higher commission than other businesses. In addition, the amortization patterns of previously capitalized amounts, which are subject to the form of the reinsurance agreement and the underlying insurance policies, may vary.

Other operating expenses were unchanged and increased $1 million, or 6.3%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2019. Other operating expenses as a percentage of net premiums were 3.5% and 3.2% for the second quarter and 3.3% and 3.2% for the six month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

~~Income (loss)~~The increase in income before income taxes ~~increased~~for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021, is primarily due to an increase in total revenues and partially offset by ~~$42~~an increase in other operating expenses.

•The increase in net investment income for the first six months of 2021 includes a reclassification of approximately $92 million ~~and decreased~~of pre-tax unrealized gains on certain limited partnerships, for which the Company uses the equity method of accounting, from AOCI to net investment income.

•The increase in investment related gains (losses), net for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2020, as compared~~2021, includes $27 million and $131 million, respectively, of changes in the carrying value of investments in limited partnerships considered to be investment companies. $70 million of the changes in the carrying value recognized in the first quarter relates to an adjustment to the ~~same periods~~carrying value from cost less impairments to a fair value approach, using the net asset value (“NAV”) per share or its equivalent, which should have been recognized in ~~2019.~~prior periods. The remaining increase in income (loss) before income taxes for the second quarter was primarily due to increases in investment related gains and other revenues, and a decrease in other operating expenses, partially offset by lower investment income. The decrease in income (loss) before income taxes for the first six months was primarily due to an increase in investment related losses and a decrease in other revenue, partially offset by increased investment income and lower other operating expenses.

~~Net investment income decreased by $7 million, or 12.7%, and increased by $8 million, or 8.2%,~~ for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2020, as compared~~2021, is attributable to ~~the same periods in 2019.

~~Net investment related gains (losses) increased by $28 million and decreased by $38 million~~other operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2020, as compared to the same periods in 2019. The increase in the second quarter gains~~2021, was primarily due to an increase in net gains on the sale of fixed maturity securities available-for-sale and other investments of $2 million and an increase in the fair value of equity securities and derivatives hedging interest of $28 million, partially offset by an increase in the valuation allowance on mortgage loans of $7 million which is primarily attributed to the economic uncertainty caused by COVID-19. Decrease in the first six months of 2020 was primarily due to an increase in the allowance for credit losses on fixed maturity securities available-for-sale of $23 million, an increase in the valuation allowance on mortgage loans of $12 million, primarily attributable to the economic uncertainty caused by COVID-19, and decreases in the fair value of fixed maturity securities available-for-sale and derivatives hedging interest rate risk of $21 million, which were offset by $14 million in net gains on the sale of fixed maturity securities and other investments.

Other revenues increased by $7 million and decreased by $18 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the same periods in 2019. The increase in the second quarter was primarily due to favorable foreign exchange rate fluctuation and an increase in the cash surrender value of corporate owned life insurance policies of $5 million. The decrease in the first six months of 2020 was mainly due to a $7 million decrease in the cash surrender value of corporate owned life insurance policies. Additionally, prior year results included a recapture of a collateral finance transaction, which resulted in a $13 million fee paid to the Company. The Company’s RGAx operations contributed $9 million and $16 million to other revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Policy acquisition costs and other insurance expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020, was consistent with the same period in 2019. Policy acquisition costs and other insurance expense increased $1 million, or 1.7%, for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the same period in 2019.

Other operating expenses decreased by $6 million, or 8.0%, and $15 million, or 10.3%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the same periods in 2019.

Interest expense decreased by $1 million, or 2.3%, and was flat for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the same periods in 2019. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to the variability in tax-related interest expense.

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 associated with the pandemic. Given the uncertainty associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and the related volatility in the financial markets, the Company ~~increased its~~continues to maintain a higher cash and cash ~~equivalents to $4.3 billion as of June 30, 2020, compared to $1.4 billion as of December 31, 2019, an increase of $2.9 billion.~~equivalent balance than its historical balances. 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, the Company has multiple liquidity alternatives available based on market conditions and the amount and timing

Table of Contents

of the liquidity need. These alternatives include borrowings under committed credit facilities, secured borrowings, the ability to issue long-term debt, preferred securities or common equity and, the sale of invested assets subject to market conditions.

In order to enhance the Company’s strong capital and liquidity position, the Company executed two capital market transactions during the quarter. On June 5, 2020, the Company completed an offering of its common stock and received net proceeds of $481 million, and on June 9, 2020, completed a senior debt offering and received net proceeds of $593 million.

Current Market Environment

~~The current low interest rate environment in select markets, primarily the U.S., Canada and Europe, continues to put downward pressure on the Company’s investment yield.~~ The Company’s average investment yield, excluding spread business, for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, was ~~4.07%~~5.15%, 31108 basis points ~~below~~higher compared to the same period in ~~2019 due~~2020. The increase in average yield is primarily attributable to ~~lower~~the aforementioned accounting correction associated with equity method limited partnerships and an increase in the average invested asset base and overall yield, primarily attributable to an increase in variable investment income ~~from limited partnerships.~~in the current year. However, the current interest rate environment continues to put downward pressure on the Company’s investment yield. The Company’s insurance liabilities, in particular its annuity products, are sensitive to changing market factors. Gross unrealized gains on fixed maturity securities available-for-sale ~~increased~~decreased from ~~$4.5~~$7.4 billion at December 31, ~~2019~~2020, to ~~$5.9~~$5.8 billion at June 30, ~~2020.~~2021. Similarly, gross unrealized losses ~~decreased~~increased from ~~$110~~$197 million at December 31, ~~2019~~2020, to ~~$448~~$267 million at June 30, ~~2020.~~2021.

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. As indicated above, gross unrealized gains on fixed maturity securities of ~~$5.9~~$5.8 billion remain well in excess of gross unrealized losses of ~~$448~~$267 million as of June 30, ~~2020.~~2021. 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, RCM and Rockwood Re and dividends from operating subsidiaries. Total interest and dividend income increased by $147 million and $342 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the same periods in 2019 primarily due to cash dividends received from

See Item 15, Schedule II – “Condensed Financial Information of the Registrant” in the ~~2019~~2020 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 ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report. As U.S. Tax Reform generally eliminates 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. RGA’s current share repurchase program, which was approved by the board of directors in January 2019, authorizes the repurchase of up to $400 million of common stock. On ~~May 6, 2020,~~August 3, 2021, the Company announced ~~that is has suspended stock repurchases until further notice.~~the lifting of the existing suspension on share repurchases. The pace of repurchase activity depends on

On June 5, 2020, the Company completed a public offering of 6,172,840 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, at a public offering price of $81.00 per share. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $481 million.

The ~~Underwriters’~~underwriters’ option was not exercised and expired on July 2, 2020. The Company ~~anticipates using~~utilized the net proceeds of the offering for general corporate purposes.

In July ~~2020,~~2021, RGA’s board of directors declared a quarterly dividend of ~~$0.70~~$0.73 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 3 – “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 is required to maintain a minimum consolidated net worth, as defined in the debt agreements, of $5.3 billion, calculated as of the last day of each fiscal quarter. 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 consolidated stockholders’ 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 ~~certain other~~ indebtedness when ~~demanded, and~~due for an amount in excess of the amounts set forth in those agreements, bankruptcy proceedings, or any other event ~~which~~that results in the acceleration of the maturity of ~~such other~~ indebtedness.

As of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company had ~~$3.6~~$3.2 billion and ~~$3.0~~$3.6 billion, respectively, in outstanding borrowings under its debt agreements and was in compliance with all covenants under those agreements. As of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the average net interest rate on long-term debt outstanding was ~~4.54%~~4.48% and ~~4.82%~~4.54%, 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.

On June 9, 2020, RGA issued 3.15% Senior Notes due June 15, 2030, with a face amount of $600 million. This security has been registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The net proceeds were approximately $593 million and ~~will be~~were used in part to repay the Company’s $400 million 5.000% senior notes due in the second quarter of 2021, and the remainder ~~will be used for general corporate purposes. Capitalized issue costs were approximately $5 million.~~

On May 15, 2019, RGA issued 3.9% Senior Notes due May 15, 2029, with a face amount of $600 million. This security has been registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The net proceeds were approximately $594 million and were used in part to repay upon maturity the Company’s $400 million 6.45% Senior Notes that mature in November 2019. The remainder will bewas used for general corporate purposes. Capitalized issue costs were approximately $5 million.

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 ~~at the Company’s option,~~ 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 August 2023. As of June 30, ~~2020~~,2021, the Company had no cash borrowings outstanding and ~~$20~~$21 million in issued, but undrawn, letters of credit under this facility.

Table of Contents

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 12twelve months.

Credit and Committed Facilities

At June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company maintained an $850 million syndicated revolving credit facility and certain committed letter of credit facilities aggregating to ~~$879 million.~~$1.1 billion. See Note 13 – “Debt” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the ~~2019~~2020 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, ~~2020,~~2021, there were approximately ~~$51~~$23 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 the 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, ~~2020, $1.4~~2021, $1.5 billion 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

~~Table of Contents~~

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” and “Interest Rate Risk” below.

Additional sources of liquidity to meet unexpected cash outflows in excess of operating cash inflows and current cash and equivalents on hand ~~include selling short-term investments or fixed maturity securities and~~also includes drawing funds under a revolving credit facility, under which the Company had availability of ~~$830~~$829 million as of June 30, ~~2020.~~2021. The Company also has ~~$500~~$419 million of funds available through collateralized borrowings from the FHLB as of June 30, ~~2020.~~2021. As of June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, 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 ~~2019~~2020 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.~~twelve months, despite the uncertainty associated with the pandemic.

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

~~Table of Contents~~

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 stockholders, 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

The Company’s obligation for long-term debt, including interest, increased by $522 million since December 31, 2019, primarily related to the June 2020 issuance of senior notes as previously discussed. The Company’s obligation for collateral financing decreased by $193 million since December 31, 2019, as a result of a repayment during 2020. The Company’s obligation for other investment related commitments decreased by $181 million since December 31, 2019, primarily related to a decrease in the Company’s commitment to fund investments of commercial mortgage loans as well as bank loans and private placements. There were no other material changes in the Company’s contractual obligations from those reported in the ~~2019~~2020 Annual ~~Report.~~Report, except for the following:

•The Company’s contractual obligations associated with interest sensitive liabilities increased from $37.1 billion at December 2020 to $41.7 billion as of June 30, 2021, primarily due to a large asset-intensive transaction completed in the second quarter. The majority of the payments due under these commitments are expected to occur beyond five years.

Table of Contents

•The Company’s contractual obligations associated with limited partnerships and other investment related commitments increased from $1.1 billion at December 2020 to $1.8 billion as of June 30, 2021, primarily due to an increase in new investment opportunities in the current period. The majority of the payments due under these commitments are expected to occur within the next twelve months.

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)~~equivalents and short-term investments) was ~~$4.3~~$3.4 billion and ~~$1.4~~$3.6 billion at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. Given the uncertainty associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and the related volatility in the financial markets, the Company has increased its liquidity position. 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 Other” in Note 4 – “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 ~~$91~~$84 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 under guaranteed investment contracts was ~~$1.9 billion and $1.4~~$1.8 billion at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~

~~Table of Contents~~

~~respectively,~~2020, 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 and to seek 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, security and derivative strategies within an asset/liability management and disciplined risk management framework. 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. ~~For a discussion of the Company’s risk management process see “Market and Credit Risk” in the “Enterprise Risk Management” section below.~~

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 4 – “Investments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the Company’s investments.

Effects of COVID-19

~~The Company’s investment portfolios have been, and may continue~~Credit markets continued to ~~be, adversely affected by~~recover during the ~~recent~~first six months of 2021 following the disruption in the global financial markets caused by the COVID-19 and uncertainty regarding its outcome. Changes in interest rates, increased market volatility or a continued slowdown in U.S. or global economic conditions may also adversely affect the values and cash flows of these assets in future periods. The Company’s corporate fixed income portfolio may be adversely impacted by ratings downgrades, increased bankruptcies and credit spread widening in distressed industries.pandemic. The Company has exposure to some of the asset classes and industries most affected by the COVID-19 pandemic such as commercial mortgage loans, emerging market debt, energy, and airlines; however, the Company’s primary exposure in these asset classes is of high quality assets. The Company had $34 million of impairment losses and changes in the credit allowance for its available-for-sale fixed maturities primarily related to high-yield energy, emerging market, and mezzanine debt securities for the six months ended June 30, 2020. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company also increased its valuation allowance on its commercial mortgage loan portfolio by approximately $30 million to $56 million as result of the negative impact the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the Company’s borrowers. The Company continues to monitor and evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its investment portfolio and is working closely with its borrowers to evaluate any short-term cash flow issues.

Investment yield ~~decreased~~increased for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, in comparison to the same periods in the prior year, primarily due to ~~the effect of a low interest rate environment combined with decreased~~increased variable income from limited partnerships and real estate joint ventures, which are included in other invested assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Investment yield excluding variable investment income decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, in comparison to the same periods in the prior year, primarily due to the continued low interest rate environment.

Fixed Maturity Securities Available-for-Sale

See “Fixed Maturity Securities Available-for-Sale” in Note 4 – “Investments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for tables that provide the amortized cost, allowance for credit losses, ~~(as of June 30, 2020),~~ unrealized gains and losses and estimated fair value of these securities ~~and impairments in AOCI~~ by type as of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

The Company holds various types of fixed maturity securities available-for-sale and classifies them as corporate securities (“Corporate”), Canadian and Canadian provincial government securities (“Canadian government”), residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”), asset-backed securities (“ABS”), commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”), U.S. government and agencies (“U.S. government”), state and political subdivisions, and other foreign government, supranational and foreign government-sponsored enterprises (“Other foreign government”). RMBS, ABS, and CMBS are collectively “structured securities.” As of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, approximately ~~95.1%~~93.9% and ~~95.5%~~94.0%, respectively, of the Company’s consolidated investment portfolio of fixed maturity securities were investment grade.

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. The Company owns floating rate securities that represent approximately ~~5.6%~~5.2% and ~~6.3%~~5.6% of the total fixed maturity securities as of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, 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 ~~62.3%~~63.4% and ~~61.4%~~63.9% of total fixed maturity securities as of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. See “Corporate Fixed Maturity Securities” in Note 4 – “Investments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for tables showing the major ~~industry~~sector types, which comprise the corporate fixed maturity holdings as of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

As of June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company’s investments in Canadian government securities represented ~~9.3%~~8.4% of the fair value of total fixed maturity securities compared to ~~9.0%~~9.1% of the fair value of total fixed maturities as of December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. These assets are primarily high quality, long duration provincial ~~strips,~~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.

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).

The Company’s RMBS portfolio includes agency-issued pass-through securities and collateralized mortgage obligations. ~~A majority of the agency-issued~~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 ~~mortgage-backed securities~~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 ~~mortgage-backed securities~~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.

The Company’s ABS portfolio primarily consists of CLOs, single-family rentals, container leasing, railcar leasing, aircraft and student loans. The principal risks in holding ~~asset-backed securities~~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.

As of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company had ~~$448~~$267 million and ~~$110~~$197 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, securities determined to have expected credit ~~loss~~losses will record an allowance for credit ~~loss~~losses in the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost.

Mortgage Loans on Real Estate

The Company continues to monitor and evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its investment portfolio and is working closely with its borrowers to evaluate any short-term cash flow issues. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company modified the payment terms of one commercial mortgage loan, with a carrying value of approximately $10 million in response to COVID-19. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company modified the payments terms of approximately 52 commercial mortgage loans, with a carrying value of approximately $660 million in response to COVID-19. These loans met the criteria established in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) and were not considered a troubled debt restructuring. In accordance with the CARES Act criteria, these loans were not more than 30 days past due at December 31, 2019, and the modifications included deferral or delayed payments of principal or interest on the loan. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 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):

See “Mortgage Loans on Real Estate” in Note 4 – “Investments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding allowance for credit losses and impairments.

Impairments and Allowance for Credit Losses

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 – Fixed Maturity Securities Available-for-Sale”~~Impairments” in Note 12 – ~~“Business~~“Significant Accounting Policies and ~~Basis~~Pronouncements” of ~~Presentation”~~the Company’s 2020 Annual Report for additional information. The table below summarizes ~~impairment~~investment related (gains) losses, net, for impairments and changes in allowance for credit losses on fixed maturity securities, other impairment losses and changes in the mortgage loan ~~provision~~allowance for credit losses for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019~~2020 (dollars in millions).
