Bermuda
Delivering an innovative new structure legally and profitably takes specialist knowledge and a strong understanding of how regulators work. Our deep insights into the Bermuda Monetary Authority helped ensure the new Incorporated Segregated Accounts Company was legally compliant and commercially effective for Resolution RE Ltd.
Designed to hold assets to support collateral of Resolution Re Ltd, the reinsurance operation of the Resolution Life Group, a global insurer focused on the acquisition, reinsurance and management of portfolios of life insurance policies. With US$74 billion in assets under management (as at 2022) and US$4.8 billion in equity capital deployed, our work co-designing and forming the platform helps support Resolutions commitment to forward-thinking life insurance solutions.
Sarah Demerling, partner in Bermuda said: "We’re thrilled to play a part in Resolution’s innovative work. Our deep understanding of the insurance industry paid dividends when it came to designing a platform fit for purpose, and our close working with the regulator helped to deliver it quickly and compliantly - expert legal advice with a commercial emphasis are an important part of our DNA here at Walkers.”
Led by partners Sarah Demerling and Adam Bathgate, with strong support from associate Amelia Oatley.
