Axis Capital Group, PartnerRe merger creates fifth-largest global reinsurer - 1 views

  •  
    The $11 billion merger of Bermuda-based PartnerRe Ltd. and Axis Capital Holdings Ltd. accelerates the trend of offshore reinsurers combining to remain competitive. The stock-swap deal announced Jan. 25 is the third in as many months in a sector hit by pricing pressure from an ongoing influx of private equity capital and strong competition among traditional reinsurers. The combination will create the fifth-largest reinsurer in the world. PartnerRe shareholders will own 51.6% of the combined company, for which a name has not yet been chosen, and Axis shareholders will own 48.4%. This mega-deal is expected to close in the second half of this year. The transaction follows Dublin-based XL Group P.L.C.'s Jan. 9 proposed acquisition of Bermuda-based Catlin Group Ltd. in a $4.1 billion deal and Bermuda-based RenaissanceRe Holdings Ltd.'s Nov. 24, 2014, acquisition of Bermuda-based Platinum underwriters Holdings Ltd. in a $1.9 billion deal. "I think it is absolutely a trend and I think, ultimately, it's all driven by the same factors," said Cliff Gallant, San Francisco-based analyst at Nomura Securities Co. Ltd. "There is a lot of pressure in reinsurance; prices are coming down and the product is changing. I expect that the wave is building and that we'll definitely see more M&A activity." Meyer Shields, managing director at Keefe, Bruyette & Woods Inc. in Baltimore, said: "This is a trend, it is accelerating and I don't think we're anywhere near done with this sort of announcement." "After a relative calm of several years, it seems the floodgates have opened for consolidation in Bermuda," Amit Kumar, New York-based vice president and senior analyst of insurance at Macquarie Capital (USA) Inc., wrote in an analyst note that also cited the RenRe/Platinum and XL/Catlin deals. Axis Capital CEO Albert Benchimol, who will head the combined entity, said in an interview: "I feel very confident that with the increased scale of the organ

Choosing Your Health Care - 1 views

  •  
    You may still have the chance to renew your existing health insurance plan or buy a new plan with the open enrollment which ran from November 15, 2014 until February 15, 2015. Axis Capital Holding Group Ltd, a group of insurance companies with branches in Europe, America, Singapore and Jakarta, Indonesia with their main office located at Bermuda has collected some tips for you to review and consider. Old-timer For those who already have their healthcare insurance or Health Management Organization (HMO) but are considering whether to renew it or not, you may consider which company has the best coverage. You may ask your potential insurer the following questions: 1. Will your drug prescription be covered? 2. Will I have to pay each time I see the doctor or go to the hospital for consultation? 3. What will my monthly premium be for 2015? If you have any questions about what changes your plan may make to your coverage in 2015, contact your insurer directly. Once you have taken the time to review any changes to your insurance plan, if you decide you want to keep the same plan, and your household income has not changed, you don't have to do anything. Your plan will be automatically renewed. However, you may want to spend some time looking at plan choices to see if there is a better plan to meet the needs of you and your family. If you qualified for reduced premiums last year, we recommend you log into www.healthcare.gov to update and double-check your income information, as that will ensure you receive the correct tax credit amounts. Newbie In browsing for the best insurance plan, you should also get an assessment which health insurance suited you the most. Think about how often you will be using your insurance coverage, how many times you get a check-up, whether you go see a certain specialist, your drug intake, whether you need specific therapy or which hospital or clinic you often go to. Here are the three factors that may

Utility bills, tuition, grocery bills, and business/professional expenses will also continue despite disability and loss of income.
