REINSURANCE GROUP OF AMERICA, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
 
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 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 25, 2022 (the “2021 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, 2022.
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.
2.    Earnings Per Share
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share on net income (in millions, except per share information):
Three months ended March 31,
 20222021
Earnings:
Net income (loss)$(63)$139 
Shares:
Weighted average outstanding shares 67 68 
Equivalent shares from outstanding stock awards1  
Denominator for diluted calculation68 68 
Earnings per share:
Basic$(0.93)$2.04 
Diluted$(0.93)$2.03 
As a result of the net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company is required to use basic weighted average common shares outstanding of 67 million in the calculation of diluted loss per share, since the inclusion of shares for outstanding stock awards would be anti-dilutive to the loss per share calculations.
The calculation of common equivalent shares does not include the impact of stock awards with a conversion price that exceeds the average stock price for the earnings period as the result would be antidilutive. The calculation of common equivalent shares also excludes the impact of outstanding performance contingent awards as the conditions necessary for their issuance have not been satisfied as of the end of the reporting period. Approximately 1.2 million stock awards and approximately 0.2 million performance contingent shares were excluded from the calculation of common equivalent shares during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

(1)Represents net shares issued from treasury pursuant to the Company’s equity-based compensation programs.
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.
On January 24, 2019, RGA’s board of directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $400 million of RGA’s outstanding common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, RGA repurchased 219,116 shares of common stock under this program for $25 million.
On February 25, 2022, RGA’s board of directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $400 million of RGA’s outstanding common stock. The authorization was effective immediately and does not have an expiration date. In connection with this authorization, the board of directors terminated the stock repurchase authority granted in 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, RGA did not repurchase any shares of common stock under this program.
Noncontrolling Interest
In 2022, Papara Financing LLC (“Papara”), a subsidiary of RGA Reinsurance Company, issued nonconvertible preferred interests to an unaffiliated third party. Papara holds investments in mortgage loans on real estate.
The membership interests in Papara consist of (1) common interests, which are held by RGA Reinsurance Company and (2) preferred interests. The preferred interests total $90 million and pay an initial preferred distribution at an annual rate of 2.375% plus three month LIBOR. The applicable rate of interest is reset every five years. Distributions are paid quarterly, if declared by Papara. RGA can call the Papara preferred interests at the issue price beginning five years from the issuance date or upon the receipt of proceeds from the sale of the underlying assets.
The holders of the Papara preferred interests have the option to require redemption upon the occurrence of certain contingent events, such as the failure of Papara to pay the preferred distribution for two or more periods or to meet certain other requirements, including a minimum credit rating. If notice is given upon such an event, all other holders of equal or more subordinate classes of membership interests in Papara are entitled to receive the same form of consideration payable to the holders of the preferred interests, resulting in a deemed liquidation for accounting purposes. The preferred interests are included in noncontrolling interest, and net income attributable to noncontrolling interest was $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

As of March 31, 2022, 1,736,018 share awards at a weighted average strike price per share of $105.02 were vested and exercisable with a remaining weighted average exercise period of 4.5 years.

Allowance for Credit Losses and Impairments Fixed Maturity Securities Available-for-Sale
As discussed in Note 2 – “Significant Accounting Policies and Pronouncements” of the Company’s 2021 Annual Report, allowances for credit losses on fixed maturity securities are recognized in investment related gains (losses), net. The amount recognized represents the difference between the amortized cost of the security and the net present value of its projected future cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate implicit in the fixed maturity security prior to the allowance for credit losses. Any remaining difference between the fair value and amortized cost is recognized in OCI.
The following tables present the rollforward of the allowance for credit losses in fixed maturity securities by type for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 (dollars in millions):

Unrealized Losses for Fixed Maturity Securities Available-for-Sale
The Company’s determination of whether a decline in value necessitates the recording of an allowance for credit losses includes an analysis of whether the issuer is current on its contractual payments, evaluating whether it is probable that the Company will be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the security and analyzing the overall ability of the Company to recover the amortized cost of the investment.
The following tables present the estimated fair value and gross unrealized losses for the 4,136 and 1,862 fixed maturity securities for which an allowance for credit loss has not been recorded as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and the estimated fair value had declined and remained below amortized cost (dollars in millions). These investments are presented by class and grade of security, as well as the length of time the related fair value has continuously remained below amortized cost.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company restructured three mortgage loans to interest only payments as a result of lower occupancy levels. The total recorded investment before allowance for credit losses for mortgage loans, which were modified and met the criteria of Troubled Debt Restructuring (“TDR”), is $77 million as of March 31, 2022. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company did not have any significant loans that were modified and met the criteria of a TDR. The Company had no mortgage loans that were on a nonaccrual status as of March 31, 2022 and 2021. The Company did not acquire any impaired mortgage loans during three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.
Policy Loans
The majority of policy loans are associated with one client. These policy loans present no credit risk as the amount of the loan cannot exceed the obligation due to the ceding company upon the death of the insured or surrender of the underlying policy. The provisions of the treaties in force and the underlying policies determine the policy loan interest rates. The Company earns a spread between the interest rate earned on policy loans and the interest rate credited to corresponding liabilities.

Table of Contents

Funds Withheld at Interest
As of March 31, 2022, $4.4 billion of the funds withheld at interest balance is primarily associated with two clients. For reinsurance agreements written on a modco basis and certain agreements written on a coinsurance funds withheld basis, assets equal to the net statutory reserves are withheld and legally owned and managed by the ceding company and are reflected as funds withheld at interest. In the event of a ceding company’s insolvency, the Company would need to assert a claim on the assets supporting its reserve liabilities. However, the risk of loss to the Company is mitigated by its ability to offset amounts it owes the ceding company for claims or allowances against amounts owed to the Company from the ceding company.
Other Invested Assets
Other invested assets include limited partnership interests, joint ventures (other than operating joint ventures), lifetime mortgages, and derivative contracts. Other invested assets also includes FHLB common stock and unit-linked investments, which are included in Other in the table below. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the allowance for credit losses for lifetime mortgages was not material.

Cash Flow Hedges
Certain derivative instruments are designated as cash flow hedges when they meet the requirements of the general accounting principles for Derivatives and Hedging. The Company designates and accounts for the following as cash flow hedges: (i) certain interest rate swaps, in which the cash flows of assets and liabilities are variable based on a benchmark rate; (ii) certain

interest rate swaps, in which the cash flows of assets are denominated in different currencies, commonly referred to as cross-currency swaps; and (iii) forward bond purchase commitments.
The following table presents the components of AOCI, before income tax, and the condensed consolidated income statement classification where the gain or loss is recognized related to cash flow hedges for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 (dollars in millions):

As of March 31, 2022, approximately $1 million of before-tax deferred net losses on derivative instruments recorded in AOCI are expected to be reclassified to interest expense during the next twelve months. For the same time period, $1 million of before-tax deferred net gains recorded in AOCI are expected to be reclassified to investment income during the next twelve months.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no material amounts reclassified into earnings relating to instances in which the Company discontinued cash flow hedge accounting because the forecasted transaction did not occur by the anticipated date or within the additional time period permitted by the authoritative guidance for the accounting for derivatives and hedging.
Hedges of Net Investments in Foreign Operations
The Company uses foreign currency swaps and foreign currency forwards to hedge a portion of its net investment in certain foreign operations against adverse movements in exchange rates. The following table illustrates the Company’s net investments in foreign operations (“NIFO”) hedges and the gains (losses) deferred in OCI for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 (dollars in millions):

The cumulative foreign currency translation gain recorded in AOCI related to these hedges was $121 million and $137 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. If a hedged foreign operation was sold or substantially liquidated, the amounts in AOCI would be reclassified to the condensed consolidated statements of income. A pro rata portion would be reclassified upon partial sale of a hedged foreign operation. There were no sales or substantial liquidations of net investments in foreign operations that would have required the reclassification of gains or losses from AOCI into investment income during the periods presented.

Non-qualifying Derivatives and Derivatives for Purposes Other Than Hedging
The Company uses various other derivative instruments for risk management purposes that either do not qualify or have not been elected for hedge accounting treatment. The gain or loss related to the change in fair value for these derivative instruments is recognized in investment related gains (losses), net, except where otherwise noted.

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 agreements.

(1)Includes initial margin posted to a central clearing partner for financial instruments and excludes the excess of collateral received/pledged from/to the counterparty.
The Company may be exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to derivative financial instruments. Generally, the credit exposure of the Company’s derivative contracts is limited to the fair value and accrued interest of non-collateralized derivative contracts in an asset position at the reporting date. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had credit exposure of $16 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 three-level fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Active markets are defined through various characteristics for the measured asset/liability, such as having many transactions and narrow bid/ask spreads.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or market standard valuation techniques and assumptions that use significant inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the related assets or liabilities and include those whose value is determined using market standard valuation techniques described above. Prices are determined using valuation methodologies such as discounted cash flow models and other similar techniques that require management’s judgment or estimation in developing inputs that are consistent with those other market participants would use when pricing similar assets and liabilities.
For a discussion of the Company’s valuation methodologies for assets and liabilities measured at fair value and the fair value hierarchy, see Note 6 – “Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s 2021 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 2021 Annual Report.
The reconciliations for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) are as follows (dollars in millions):

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements
The Company has certain assets subject to measurement at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, in periods subsequent to their initial recognition if they are determined to be impaired. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, 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 values and estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments, which were not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 (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 2021 Annual Report. This table excludes any payables or receivables for collateral under repurchase/reverse repurchase agreements and other transactions. The estimated fair value of the excluded amount approximates carrying value as they equal the amount of cash collateral received/paid.

7.    Segment Information
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 2 – “Significant Accounting Policies and Pronouncements” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s 2021 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.

Commitments
Funding of Investments
The Company’s commitments to fund investments as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, are presented in the following table (dollars in millions):
March 31, 2022December 31, 2021
Limited partnership interests and joint ventures$978 $1,031 
Mortgage loans on real estate57 152 
Bank loans and private placements914 768 
Lifetime mortgages90 41 
The Company anticipates that the majority of its current commitments will be invested over the next five years; however, these commitments could become due any time at the request of the counterparties. Bank loans and private placements are included in fixed maturity securities available-for-sale.
The Company has an immaterial liability, included in other liabilities, for expected credit losses associated with unfunded commitments as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Funding Agreements
Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines
The Company is a member of the FHLB and, through membership, has issued funding agreements to the FHLB in exchange for cash advances. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $1.1 billion and $1.4 billion, respectively, of FHLB funding agreements outstanding. The Company is required to provide collateral in excess of the funding agreement amounts outstanding, considering any discounts to the securities posted and prepayment penalties.
Funding Agreement Backed Notes
The Company’s Funding Agreement Backed Notes (“FABN”) program allows RGA Global Funding, a special-purpose, unaffiliated statutory trust, to offer its senior secured medium-term notes to investors. RGA Global Funding uses the net proceeds from each sale to purchase one or more funding agreements from the Company. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $900 million and $500 million, respectively, of FABN agreements outstanding and are included within interest-sensitive contract liabilities.
Contingencies
Litigation
The Company is subject to litigation in the normal course of its business, however, 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
31

Table of Contents

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.
Other Contingencies
The Company indemnifies its directors and officers as provided in its charters and by-laws. Since this indemnity generally is not subject to limitation with respect to duration or amount, the Company does not believe that it is possible to determine the maximum potential amount due under this indemnity in the future.
Guarantees
Statutory Reserve Support
Certain RGA subsidiaries have committed to provide statutory reserve support to third parties, in exchange for a fee, by funding loans if certain defined events occur. Such statutory reserves are required under the U.S. Valuation of Life Policies Model Regulation (commonly referred to as Regulation XXX for term life insurance policies and Regulation A-XXX for universal life secondary guarantees). In addition, certain subsidiaries have also committed to provide capital support to a third party, in exchange for a fee, by agreeing to assume real estate leases in the event of a severe and prolonged decline in the commercial lease market. Upon assumption of a lease, the Company would recognize a right to use asset and lease obligation. As of March 31, 2022, 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 March 31, 2022 (dollars in millions):
Commitment PeriodMaximum Potential Obligation
2034$1,243 
20352,678 
20363,599 
20376,850 
20382,300 
20397,350 
20463,000 
Other Guarantees
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 March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, are reflected in the following table (dollars in millions):

9.    Income Tax
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded income tax expense of $3 million on a pre-tax loss of $60 million, or an effective tax rate of 3.7%. Tax expense was recorded on the pre-tax loss was the result of income in jurisdictions with tax rates higher than the U.S., basis adjustments in foreign jurisdictions and adjustments to the valuation allowance. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recorded income tax expense of $47 million on pre-tax income of $186 million, or an effective tax rate of 25.3%. The effective tax rate was higher than the U.S. statutory income tax rate of 21% primarily as a result of income earned in jurisdictions with tax rates higher than the U.S., global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) and Subpart F income.

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 March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, 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 March 31, 2022, 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 March 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021 (dollars in millions):

13.    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.
DescriptionAnticipated Date of AdoptionEffect 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. 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. Upon adoption, there will be an adjustment to retained earnings as a result of capping the net premium ratio at 100% and eliminating negative reserves on certain issue year cohorts. The Company is currently evaluating this impact but anticipates it will likely result in a material decrease to retained earnings. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the cash flow assumptions amendments on its results of operations and financial position but anticipates they will likely be material.
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 (loss).
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. Upon adoption, there will be an adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a result of remeasuring in force contract liabilities using current upper-medium grade fixed income instrument yields. The adjustment will largely reflect the difference between discount rates locked-in at contract inception versus current discount rates at transition. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this adjustment but anticipates it will likely be material.
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 (loss).
Market risk benefits The Company is required to adopt this guidance on a retrospective basis as of the earliest period presented in the year of adoption. Upon adoption, the Company expects an impact to (1) accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the cumulative effect of changes in the instrument-specific credit risk between contract issue date and transition date and (2) retained earnings for the difference between fair value and carrying value at the transition date, excluding the changes in the instrument-specific credit risk. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these adjustments but anticipates they will likely be material.
Amortization of deferred acquisition costs (“DAC”) and other balances The 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. Upon adoption, the Company expects an adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the removal of cumulative adjustments to DAC associated with unrealized gains and losses previously recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this adjustment but anticipates it will likely result in a material increase to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the other amortization of DAC and other balances amendments on its results of operations and financial position but anticipates they will likely not be material.

Overview
The Company is among the leading global providers of life reinsurance and financial solutions, with $3.5 trillion of life reinsurance in force and assets of $89.8 billion as of March 31, 2022. Traditional reinsurance includes individual and group life
36

Table of Contents

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 life business, the Company’s profitability largely depends on the volume and amount of death- and health-related claims incurred and the ability to adequately price the risks it assumes. While death claims are reasonably predictable over a period of many years, claims become less predictable over shorter periods and are subject to significant fluctuation from quarter to quarter and year to year. For longevity business, the Company’s profitability depends on the lifespan of the underlying contract holders and the investment performance for certain contracts. Additionally, the Company generates profits on investment spreads associated with the reinsurance of investment type contracts and generates fees from financial reinsurance transactions, which are typically shorter duration than its traditional life reinsurance business. The Company believes its sources of liquidity are sufficient to cover potential claims payments on both a short-term and long-term basis.
As is customary in the reinsurance business, clients continually update, refine, and revise reinsurance information provided to the Company. Such revised information is used by the Company in preparation of its condensed consolidated financial statements and the financial effects resulting from the incorporation of revised data are reflected in the current period.
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 2021 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
Although global COVID-19 related deaths have begun to decline, the Company continues to experience increased claim costs as a result of the COVID-19 global pandemic. However, the Company cannot reliably predict the future impact the ongoing pandemic will have on its business, results of operations and financial condition as the impact will depend on, among other factors, the severity of new variants of the virus, vaccination effectiveness, country-specific circumstances, and COVID-19’s indirect impact on mortality and morbidity.
The ultimate amount and timing of claims the Company will experience as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic will depend 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; however, many populations have seen an increase in younger age deaths, particularly in areas where healthcare facilities were unable to provide adequate care. 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. In addition, the Company’s longevity business may act as a modest offset to excess life insurance claims at older ages.
The Company’s COVID-19 projection and financial impact models continue to be updated and refined based on latest external data and the Company’s claim experience to date and are subject to the many variables and uncertainties noted above. The U.S. continues to be the key driver of mortality claim costs followed by Canada and the UK. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company estimates it has incurred approximately $315 million of COVID-19 related life and health claim costs, including amounts incurred but not reported, with approximately $272 million of that amount being associated with the U.S. and Latin America Traditional segment. The Company has maintained the range of COVID-19 mortality claim cost estimates relative to the level of general population deaths for the U.S., UK and Canada although short-term experience may be at the higher end of those ranges, reflecting mortality that is still driven in part by new variants of the virus. 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.
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 the Company’s consolidated Own Risk and Solvency Assessment.

The decrease in income for the three months ended March 31, 2022, was primarily the result of:
As discussed in the “Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic” above, the Company estimates it has incurred approximately $315 million, pre-tax, of COVID-19 related life and health claim costs, including amounts incurred but not reported, with approximately $272 million, pre-tax, in the U.S. and Latin America segment.
Changes in the fair value of embedded derivatives, associated with modco/funds withheld treaties, decreased investment related gains by $33 million for the three month period ended March 31 2022, compared to an increase of $50 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021.
$25 million, pre-tax, of net realized losses, included in investment related gains (losses), net associated with portfolio repositioning compared to $154 million of net realized gains recognized in the prior year.
Foreign currency fluctuations can result in variances in the financial statement line items. Foreign currency exchange fluctuation increased income before taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2022 by $6 million primarily due to a weakening of the Japanese Yen compared to the U.S. dollar. Unless otherwise stated, all amounts discussed below are net of foreign currency fluctuations.
Premiums and business growth
The increase in premiums is primarily due to an increase in new business production, measured by the face amount of life reinsurance in force, of $119.4 billion and $77.9 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Consolidated assumed life reinsurance in force increased to $3,495.1 billion as of March 31, 2022, from $3,428.6 billion as of March 31, 2021, due to new business production offset by lapses and mortality claims.
Net investment income and investment related gains (losses), net
Net investment income is consistent with the comparable period in 2021 as an increase in the average invested asset base was offset by a decrease in yield:
The average invested assets at amortized cost, excluding spread related business, totaled $35.3 billion and $33.4 billion in 2022 and 2021, respectively.
The average yield earned on investments, excluding spread related business, was 5.29% and 5.67% for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Investment income, net for the three-months ended March 31, 2021, benefited from a one-time adjustment of approximately $92 million, pre-tax, to correct the accounting for unrealized gains on certain limited partnerships, for
39

Table of Contents

which the Company uses the equity method of accounting, from AOCI to net investment income. The unrealized gains should have been recognized directly in net investment income in the same prior periods they were reported as earnings by the investees.

The average yield will vary from period to period depending on several variables, including the prevailing risk-free interest rate and credit spread environment, prepayment fees and make-whole premiums, changes in the mix of the underlying investments and cash and cash equivalents balances. Variable investment income from joint ventures and limited partnerships will also vary from period to period and is highly dependent on the timing of dividends and distributions on certain investments. Investment income is allocated to the operating segments based upon average assets and related capital levels deemed appropriate to support segment operations.
The decrease in investment related gains (losses), net is primarily attributable to the following:
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company repositioned select investment portfolios generating net realized losses of $25 million compared to net realized gains of $154 million during the first three months of 2021.
Changes in the fair value of embedded derivatives, associated with modco/funds withheld treaties, decreased investment related gains (losses), net by $33 million for the three month period ended March 31 2022, compared to an increase of $50 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021.
The Company uses various derivative instruments such as interest rate swaps, credit default swaps and foreign exchange forwards for risk management purposes that either do not qualify or have not been elected for hedge accounting treatment. Changes in the fair value of these instruments are included in investment related gains (losses), net. During the three months period ended March 31, 2022, the fair value of these instruments decreased by $90 million, compared to a decrease of $51 million during the first three months of 2021. See Note 5 – “Derivative Instruments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company incurred $12 million of impairments and change in allowance for credit losses on fixed maturity securities compared to $2 million during the first three months of 2021.
Investment related gains (losses), net, for the first three months of 2021 included an adjustment to investments in limited partnerships considered to be investment companies, which should have been recognized in prior periods, of $70 million pre-tax to adjust the carrying value from cost less impairments to the fair value approach, using the net asset value (“NAV”) per share or its equivalent.
The effective tax rate on a consolidated basis was 3.7% tax rate expense on a pre-tax loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 25.3% tax rate expense on pre-tax income for the three months ended March 31, 2021, respectively. See Note 9 – “Income Tax” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the Company’s consolidated effective tax rate.
Impact of certain derivatives
The Company recognizes in consolidated income, any changes in the fair value of embedded derivatives on modco or funds withheld treaties, equity index annuities (“EIAs”) and variable annuities with guaranteed minimum benefit riders. The Company utilizes freestanding derivatives to minimize the income statement volatility due to changes in the fair value of embedded derivatives associated with guaranteed minimum benefit riders.

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

The decrease in loss before income taxes for the U.S. and Latin America Traditional segment was primarily due to improved claims experience of $70 million within the Individual Mortality line of business, as well as higher net investment income.
Revenues
The increase in net premiums was primarily due to organic growth as well as $46 million of new business, $45 million related to the restructuring of a transaction that was previously recognized as a low risk transaction or deposit accounting in Latin America and $31 million related to the partial recapture of a large reinsurance transaction, which had been retroceded to another reinsurer, in the second quarter of 2021. The segment added new life business production, measured by face amount of life reinsurance in force, of $39.5 billion and $28.5 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
The increase in net investment income was primarily due to an increase in variable investment income associated with investments in real estate joint ventures and an increase in realized gains associated with investments in limited partnerships and private equity funds.
Benefits and expenses
The decrease in the loss ratio for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021, was primarily due to favorable non-COVID-19 experience, mainly within the Individual Mortality line of business. Although global COVID-19 related deaths have begun to decline, the U.S. and Latin America segment continued to experience increased claim costs as result of COVID-19 during the period. While the cause of death is not yet available for all claims, the Company estimates that approximately $272 million of claims for the three months ended March 31, 2022, were attributable to COVID-19.
The increase in policy acquisition costs and other insurance expenses as a percentage of net premiums is primarily attributable to the restructure of a transaction in Latin America.

Asset-Intensive Reinsurance
The decrease in income before income taxes for the U.S. and Latin America Financial Solutions Asset-Intensive segment was primarily due to higher investment related losses, net in coinsurance portfolios and the decrease in fair value of the embedded derivatives related to modco/funds withheld treaties.
The invested asset base supporting this segment increased to $23.7 billion as of March 31, 2022, from $23.2 billion as of March 31, 2021.
The increase in the asset base was primarily due to $3.2 billion of new transactions, partially offset by $1.6 billion of retrocessions competed in the second half of 2021, and $1.1 billion of net run off in existing inforce blocks.
As of March 31, 2022 and 2021, $4.4 billion and $3.2 billion, respectively, of the invested assets were funds withheld at interest, of which greater than 90% was associated with two clients.
Impact of certain 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 EIAs 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.

Embedded Derivatives Modco/Funds Withheld Treaties – Represents the change in the fair value of embedded derivatives on funds withheld at interest associated with treaties written on a modco or funds withheld basis. The fair value changes of these embedded derivatives 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 in fair value of these embedded derivatives for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.
The change in fair value of the embedded derivatives related to modco/funds withheld treaties, net of deferred acquisition costs increased (decreased) income before income taxes by $(29) million and $27 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022, was due to higher interest rates of $(31) million and $(26) million of widening credit spreads during the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to the prior period.
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 change in fair value of the embedded derivatives on guaranteed minimum benefits are net of a decrease in investment related gains (losses), net of $13 million and $55 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, associated with the Company’s utilization of a credit valuation adjustment.
The change in fair value of the guaranteed minimum benefits, after allowing for changes in the associated free standing derivatives, decreased income before income taxes by $15 million and $35 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in income for the three months ended March 31, 2022, was primarily due to the $13 million reduction in the credit valuation adjustment which has the impact of increasing the fair value of the guaranteed minimum benefit liability.
Equity-Indexed Annuities Represents changes in the liability for equity-indexed annuities in excess of changes in account value, after adjustments for related deferred acquisition expenses. The change in fair value of embedded derivative liabilities associated with equity-indexed annuities increased income before income taxes by $10 million and $14 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in income for the three months ended March 31, 2022, was due to an increase in risk free interest rates which has the impact of lowering the fair value of the liability.

Table of Contents

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.
Discussion and analysis before certain derivatives
Income before income taxes and certain derivatives was consistent for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021.
Revenue before certain derivatives decreased by $15 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease in the first quarter of 2022 was primarily due to $(33) million change in fair value of equity options associated with the reinsurance of EIAs, partially offset by a $10 million increase in investment income associated with a funds withheld transaction which is retroceded to a third party. Both of these items are substantially offset by a corresponding change in interest credited and other insurance expenses, respectively.
Benefits and expenses before certain derivatives decreased by $15 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease in the current quarter was primarily due to $(29) million higher interest credited associated with the reinsurance of EIAs, partially offset by $10 million increase in other insurance expenses related to a funds withheld transaction which is retroceded to a third party.
Capital Solutions
Income before income taxes for the U.S. and Latin America Capital Solutions’ business for the three months ended March 31, 2022, increased slightly compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. 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.
As of March 31, 2022 and 2021, the amount of reinsurance assumed from client companies, as measured by pre-tax statutory surplus, risk based capital and other financial structures was $23.3 billion and $22.0 billion, respectively.
Canada Operations
The Company conducts reinsurance business in Canada primarily through RGA Canada, which assists clients with capital management activity and mortality and morbidity risk management. The Canada operations are primarily engaged in Traditional reinsurance, which consists mainly of traditional individual life reinsurance, and to a lesser extent creditor, group life and health, critical illness and disability reinsurance. Creditor insurance covers the outstanding balance on personal, mortgage or commercial loans in the event of death, disability or critical illness and is generally shorter in duration than traditional individual life insurance. The Canada Financial Solutions segment consists of longevity and capital solutions.

Interest credited in this segment relates to amounts credited to the contract holders of unit-linked products. This amount will fluctuate according to contract holder investment selections, equity returns and interest rates. The effect on interest credited related to unit-linked products is substantially offset by a corresponding change in investment income.
The increase in operating expenses is due to an increase in transaction related costs.
Asia Pacific Operations
The Asia Pacific operations include business generated by its offices principally in Australia, China, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea and Taiwan. The Traditional segment’s principal types of reinsurance include individual and group life and health, critical illness, disability and superannuation. Reinsurance agreements may be facultative or automatic agreements covering primarily individual risks, and in some markets, group risks. Superannuation is the Australian government mandated compulsory retirement savings program. Superannuation funds accumulate retirement funds for employees, and, in addition, typically offer life and disability insurance coverage. The Financial Solutions segment includes financial reinsurance, asset-intensive and certain disability and life blocks.

Income (loss) before income taxes$(56)$28 $(84)
The decrease in income before income taxes is primarily due to unfavorable fluctuations in the fair value of derivatives. The invested asset base supporting asset-intensive transactions increased to $10.3 billion as of March 31, 2022 from $6.6 billion as of March 31, 2021. The increase in the asset base compared to March 31, 2021, was primarily due to $3.3 billion from recently executed transactions and net organic growth of $0.4 billion from existing inforce blocks. The amount of reinsurance assumed from client companies, as measured by pre-tax statutory surplus, risk based capital and other financial reinsurance structures was $1.3 billion and $1.6 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Fees earned from this business can vary significantly depending on the size, complexity and timing of the transactions and, therefore, can fluctuate from period to period.
Revenues
The decrease in net premiums is attributable to a lower contribution from single premium asset-intensive transactions of $8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021.
The increase in net investment income is due to the increase in the asset base.
The decrease in investment related gains (losses), net is primarily due to unfavorable fluctuations in the fair value of credit derivatives of $(78) million due to widening credit spreads.
Corporate and Other
Corporate and Other revenues primarily include investment income from unallocated invested assets, investment related gains and losses and service fees. Corporate and Other expenses consist of the offset to capital charges allocated to the operating segments within the policy acquisition costs and other insurance income line item, unallocated overhead and executive costs, interest expense related to debt, and the investment income and expense associated with the Company’s collateral finance and securitization transactions and service business expenses. Additionally, Corporate and Other includes results from certain wholly-owned subsidiaries, such as RGAX, and joint ventures that, among other activities, develop and market technology, and provide consulting and outsourcing solutions for the insurance and reinsurance industries. The Company continues to invest in this area in an effort to both support its clients and accelerate the development of new solutions and services to increase consumer engagement within the life insurance industry and hence generate new future revenue streams.

Loss before income taxes$(31)$350 $(381)
The decrease in income before income taxes is primarily due to a decrease in total revenues attributable to the following:
The decrease in net investment income is primarily due to a one-time adjustment recorded in the prior period of $92 million 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 unrealized gains should have been recognized directly in net investment income in the same prior periods they were reported as earnings by the investees. The remaining decrease is attributable to lower investment income on Corporate invested assets primarily due to a lower yield.
The decrease in investment related gains (losses), net is attributable to losses on sales of fixed maturity securities in the first three months of 2022 of $18 million compared to gains of $144 million for the prior year, lower unrealized gains on limited partnerships and changes in allowances and impairments on mortgage loans and available for sale securities. In addition, investment related gains (losses), net, for the first three months of 2021 includes an adjustment to investments in limited partnerships considered to be investment companies, which should have been recognized in prior periods, of $70 million to adjust the carrying value from cost less impairments to the fair value approach, using the net asset value (“NAV”) per share or its equivalent.
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 COVID-19. The Company is currently holding higher cash and cash equivalents levels in response to COVID-19. The Company performs periodic liquidity stress testing to ensure its asset portfolio includes sufficient high quality liquid assets that could be utilized to bolster its liquidity position under stress scenarios. These assets could be utilized as collateral for secured borrowing transactions with various third parties or by selling the securities in the open market if needed. The Company’s liquidity requirements have been and will continue to be funded through net cash flows from operations. However, in the event of significant unanticipated cash requirements beyond normal liquidity needs, the Company has multiple liquidity alternatives available based on market conditions and the amount and timing of the liquidity need. These alternatives include the sale of invested assets subject to market conditions, borrowings under committed credit facilities, secured borrowings, and if necessary issuing long-term debt, preferred securities or common equity.
Current Market Environment
The Company’s average investment yield, excluding spread related business, for the three months ended March 31, 2022, was 5.29%, 38 basis points below the same period in 2021 due to lower variable investment income. 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 decreased from $5.3 billion at December 31, 2021, to $2.2 billion at March 31, 2022, due to tightening credit spreads. Additionally, gross unrealized losses increased from $0.3 billion at December 31, 2021, to $2.1 billion at March 31, 2022.

Table of Contents

The Company continues to be in a position to hold any investment security showing an unrealized loss until recovery, provided it remains comfortable with the credit of the issuer. The Company does not rely on short-term funding or commercial paper and to date it has experienced no liquidity pressure, nor does it anticipate such pressure in the foreseeable future.
The Company projects its reserves to be sufficient, and it would not expect to write down deferred acquisition costs or be required to take any actions to augment capital, even if interest rates remain at current levels for the next five years, assuming all other factors remain constant. While the Company has felt the pressures of sustained low interest rates and volatile equity markets and may continue to do so, its business and results of operations are not overly sensitive to these risks. Mortality and morbidity risks continue to be the most significant risk for the Company. Although management believes the Company’s current capital base is adequate to support its business at current operating levels, it continues to monitor new business opportunities and any associated new capital needs that could arise from the changing financial landscape.
The Holding Company
RGA is an insurance holding company whose primary uses of liquidity include, but are not limited to, the immediate capital needs of its operating companies, dividends paid to its shareholders, repurchase of common stock and interest payments on its indebtedness. The primary sources of RGA’s liquidity include proceeds from its capital-raising efforts, interest income on undeployed corporate investments, interest income received on surplus notes with RGA Reinsurance Company (“RGA Reinsurance”), Reinsurance Company of Missouri, Incorporated (“RCM”) and Rockwood Reinsurance Company (“Rockwood Re”) and dividends from operating subsidiaries. As the Company continues its growth efforts, RGA will continue to be dependent upon these sources of liquidity. The following tables provide comparative information for RGA (dollars in millions):

See Item 15, Schedule II – “Condensed Financial Information of the Registrant” in the 2021 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 2021 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.
On January 24, 2019, RGA’s board of directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $400 million of RGA’s outstanding common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, RGA repurchased 219,116 shares of common stock under this program for $25 million.
On February 25, 2022, RGA’s board of directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $400 million of RGA’s outstanding common stock. The authorization was effective immediately and does not have an expiration date. In connection with this authorization, the board of directors terminated the stock repurchase authority granted in 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, RGA did not repurchase any shares of common stock under this program.
The pace of repurchase activity depends on various factors such as the level of available cash, an evaluation of the costs and benefits associated with alternative uses of excess capital, such as acquisitions and in force reinsurance transactions, and RGA’s stock price.

In April 2022, RGA’s board of directors declared a quarterly dividend of $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 RGA Inc’s 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 indebtedness when due for an amount in excess of the amounts set forth in those agreements, bankruptcy proceedings, or any other event that results in the acceleration of the maturity of indebtedness.
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $3.7 billion, in outstanding borrowings under its debt agreements and was in compliance with all covenants under those agreements. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the average interest rate on long-term debt outstanding was 4.42%. The ability of the Company to make debt principal and interest payments depends on the earnings and surplus of subsidiaries, investment earnings on undeployed capital proceeds, available liquidity at the holding company, and the Company’s ability to raise additional funds.
The Company enters into derivative agreements with counterparties that reference either the Company’s debt rating or its financial strength rating. If either rating is downgraded in the future, it could trigger certain terms in the Company’s derivative agreements, which could negatively affect overall liquidity. For the majority of the Company’s derivative agreements, there is a termination event should the long-term senior debt ratings drop below either BBB+ (S&P) or Baa1 (Moody’s) or the financial strength ratings drop below either A- (S&P) or A3 (Moody’s).
The Company may borrow up to $850 million in cash and obtain letters of credit in multiple currencies on its revolving credit facility that matures in August 2023. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had no cash borrowings outstanding and $21 million in issued, but undrawn, letters of credit under this facility.
On December 13, 2021, RGA Reinsurance issued 4.00% Surplus Notes due in 2051, with a face amount of $500 million. The net proceeds were approximately $494 million and will be used for general corporate purposes.
Based on the historic cash flows and the current financial results of the Company, management believes RGA’s cash flows will be sufficient to enable RGA to meet its obligations for at least the next 12 months.
Credit and Committed Facilities
At March 31, 2022, the Company maintained an $850 million syndicated revolving credit facility in addition to committed letter of credit facilities aggregating $929 million. See Note 13 – “Debt” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2021 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 March 31, 2022, there were approximately $53 million
53

Table of Contents

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 March 31, 2022, $1.7 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 assets result from investment income and the maturity and sales of invested assets. The primary liquidity concerns with respect to these cash inflows relates to the risk of default by debtors and interest rate volatility. The Company manages these risks very closely. See “Investments” below.
Additional sources of liquidity to meet unexpected cash outflows in excess of operating cash inflows and current cash and equivalents on hand also includes drawing funds under a revolving credit facility, under which the Company had availability of $829 million as of March 31, 2022. The Company also has $742 million of funds available through collateralized borrowings from the FHLB as of March 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2022, 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 2021 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, 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
54

Table of Contents

interest on outstanding debt obligations. The primary liquidity concern with respect to these cash flows is the risk of shortfalls in premiums and investment income, particularly in periods with abnormally high claims levels.
Cash Flows from Investments – The principal cash inflows from the Company’s investment activities come from repayments of principal on invested assets, proceeds from maturities of invested assets, sales of invested assets and settlements of freestanding derivatives. The principal cash outflows relate to purchases of investments, issuances of policy loans and settlements of freestanding derivatives. The Company typically has a net cash outflow from investing activities because cash inflows from insurance operations are reinvested in accordance with its asset/liability management discipline to fund insurance liabilities. The Company closely monitors and manages these risks through its credit risk management process. The primary liquidity concerns with respect to these cash flows are the risk of default by debtors and market disruption, which could make it difficult for the Company to sell investments.
Financing Cash Flows – The principal cash inflows from the Company’s financing activities come from issuances of RGA debt and equity securities, and deposit funds associated with universal life and other investment type policies and contracts. The principal cash outflows come from repayments of debt, payments of dividends to 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
There were no material changes in the Company’s contractual obligations from those reported in the 2021 Annual Report.
Asset / Liability Management
The Company actively manages its cash and invested assets using an approach that is intended to balance quality, diversification, asset/liability matching, liquidity and investment return. The goals of the investment process are to optimize after-tax, risk-adjusted investment income and after-tax, risk-adjusted total return while managing the assets and liabilities on a cash flow and duration basis.
The Company has established target asset portfolios for its operating segments, which represent the investment strategies intended to profitably fund its liabilities within acceptable risk parameters. These strategies include objectives and limits for effective duration, yield curve sensitivity and convexity, liquidity, asset sector concentration and credit quality.
The Company’s asset-intensive products are primarily supported by investments in fixed maturity securities reflected on the Company’s balance sheet and under funds withheld arrangements with the ceding company. Investment guidelines are established to structure the investment portfolio based upon the type, duration and behavior of products in the liability portfolio so as to achieve targeted levels of profitability. The Company manages the asset-intensive business to provide a targeted spread between the interest rate earned on investments and the interest rate credited to the underlying interest-sensitive contract liabilities. The Company periodically reviews models projecting different interest rate scenarios and their effect on profitability. Certain of these asset-intensive agreements, primarily in the U.S. and Latin America Financial Solutions operating segment, are generally funded by fixed maturity securities that are withheld by the ceding company.
The Company’s liquidity position (cash and cash equivalents and short term investments) was $3.0 billion at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, 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 $58 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
55

Table of Contents

outstanding funding agreements. The amount of the Company’s liability for the funding agreements with the FHLB under guaranteed investment contracts was $1.1 billion and $1.4 billion at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, which is included in interest sensitive contract liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The advances on these agreements are collateralized primarily by commercial and residential mortgage-backed securities, commercial mortgage loans, and U.S. Treasury and government agency securities. The amount of collateral exceeds the liability and is dependent on the type of assets collateralizing the guaranteed investment contracts.
Investments
Management of Investments
The Company’s investment and derivative strategies involve matching the characteristics of its reinsurance products and other obligations. The Company seeks to closely approximate the interest rate sensitivity of the assets with estimated interest rate sensitivity of the reinsurance liabilities. The Company achieves its income objectives through strategic and tactical asset allocations, applying security and derivative strategies within asset/liability and disciplined risk management frameworks. Derivative strategies are employed within the Company’s risk management framework to help manage duration, currency, and other risks in assets and/or liabilities and to replicate the credit characteristics of certain assets.
The Company’s portfolio management groups work with the Enterprise Risk Management function to develop the investment policies for the assets of the Company’s domestic and international investment portfolios. All investments held by the Company, directly or in a funds withheld at interest reinsurance arrangement, are monitored for conformance with the Company’s stated investment policy limits as well as any limits prescribed by the applicable jurisdiction’s insurance laws and regulations. See Note 4 – “Investments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the Company’s investments.
Portfolio Composition
The Company had total cash and invested assets of $78.6 billion and $81.5 billion as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, as illustrated below (dollars in millions):

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

Investment yield decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2022, in comparison to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to decreased variable income from limited partnerships partially offset by increased variable income from real estate joint ventures, which are included in other invested assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

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, unrealized gains and losses and estimated fair value of these securities by type as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
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 March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, approximately 93.8% and 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 6.3% and 5.3% of the total fixed maturity securities as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, 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 62.8% of total fixed maturity securities as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. See “Corporate Fixed Maturity Securities” in Note 4 – “Investments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for tables showing the major sector types, which comprise the corporate fixed maturity holdings as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s investments in Canadian government securities represented 7.6% and 8.1%, respectively, of the fair value of total fixed maturity securities. These assets are primarily high quality, long duration provincial strip bonds, the valuation of which is closely linked to the interest rate curve. These assets are longer in duration and held primarily for asset/liability management to meet Canadian regulatory requirements.
The Company references rating agency designations in some of its investments disclosures. These designations are based on the ratings from nationally recognized statistical rating organizations, primarily Moody’s, S&P and Fitch. Structured securities held by the Company’s insurance subsidiaries that maintain the NAIC statutory basis of accounting utilize the NAIC rating methodology. The NAIC assigns designations to publicly traded as well as privately placed securities. The designations assigned by the NAIC range from class 1 to class 6, with designations in classes 1 and 2 generally considered investment grade (BBB or higher rating agency designation). NAIC designations in classes 3 through 6 are generally considered below investment grade (BB or lower rating agency designation). If no rating is available from a rating agency or the NAIC, then an internally developed rating is used.
The quality of the Company’s available-for-sale fixed maturity securities portfolio, as measured at fair value and by the percentage of fixed maturity securities invested in various ratings categories, relative to the entire available-for-sale fixed maturity securities portfolio, as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was as follows (dollars in millions):

The Company’s RMBS portfolio includes agency-issued pass-through securities and collateralized mortgage obligations. Agency-issued pass-through securities are guaranteed or otherwise supported by the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, Federal National Mortgage Association, or the Government National Mortgage Association. The principal risks inherent in holding RMBS are prepayment and extension risks, which will affect the timing of when cash will be received and are dependent on the level of mortgage interest rates. Prepayment risk is the unexpected increase in principal payments from the expected, primarily as a result of owner refinancing. Extension risk relates to the unexpected slowdown in principal payments from the expected. In addition, non-agency RMBS face credit risk should the borrower be unable to pay the contractual interest or principal on their obligation. The Company monitors its mortgage-backed securities to mitigate exposure to the cash flow uncertainties associated with these risks.
The Company’s ABS portfolio primarily consists of CLOs, aircraft, and single-family rentals. The principal risks in holding ABS are structural, credit, capital market and interest rate risks. Structural risks include the securities’ cash flow priority in the capital structure and the inherent prepayment sensitivity of the underlying collateral. Credit risks include the adequacy and ability to realize proceeds from the collateral. Credit risks are mitigated by credit enhancements that include excess spread, over-collateralization and subordination. Capital market risks include general level of interest rates and the liquidity for these securities in the marketplace.
The Company’s CMBS portfolio primarily consists of large pool securitizations that are diverse by property type, borrower and geographic dispersion. The principal risks in holding CMBS are structural and credit risks. Structural risks include the securities’ cash flow priority in the capital structure and the inherent prepayment sensitivity of the underlying collateral. Credit risks include the adequacy and ability to realize proceeds from the collateral. The Company focuses on investment grade rated tranches that provide additional credit support beyond the equity protection in the underlying loans. These assets are viewed as an attractive alternative to other fixed income asset classes.
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $2,066 million and $349 million, respectively, of gross unrealized losses related to its fixed maturity securities. The Company monitors its fixed maturity securities to determine impairments in value and evaluates factors such as financial condition of the issuer, payment performance, compliance with covenants, general market and industry sector conditions, current intent and ability to hold securities, and various other subjective factors. Based on management’s judgment, an allowance for credit losses in the amount that fair value is less than the amortized cost is recorded for securities determined to have expected credit losses.
Mortgage Loans on Real Estate
The Company’s mortgage loan portfolio consists of U.S., Canada and UK based investments primarily in commercial offices, light industrial properties and retail locations. The mortgage loan portfolio is diversified by geographic region and property type as discussed further under “Mortgage Loans on Real Estate” in Note 4 – “Investments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Most of the mortgage loans in the Company’s portfolio range in size up to $30 million, with the average mortgage loan investment as of March 31, 2022, totaling approximately $9 million.

See “Allowance for Credit Losses and Impairments” in Note 2 – “Significant Accounting Policies and Pronouncements” of the Company’s 2021 Annual Report and “Mortgage Loans on Real Estate” in Note 4 – “Investments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding the Company’s policy for allowance for credit losses on mortgage loans.
Allowance for Credit Losses and Impairments
The Company’s determination of whether a decline in value necessitates the recording of an allowance for credit losses includes an analysis of whether the issuer is current on its contractual payments, evaluating whether it is probable that the Company will be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the security and analyzing the overall ability of the Company to recover the amortized cost of the investment. See “Allowance for Credit Losses and Impairments” in Note 2 – “Significant Accounting Policies and Pronouncements” of the Company’s 2021 Annual Report for additional information. The table below summarizes investment related gains (losses), net related to allowances for credit losses and impairments for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 (dollars in millions).

The change in allowance for credit losses and impairments on fixed maturity securities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, was primarily related to high-yield securities. The decrease in mortgage loan allowance for credit losses for the three months ended, March 31, 2021 reflects the improved outlook from the COVID-19 pandemic.
See “Unrealized Losses for Fixed Maturity Securities Available-for-Sale” in Note 4 – “Investments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for tables that present the estimated fair value and gross unrealized losses for securities that have estimated fair values below amortized cost by class and grade, as well as the length of time the related estimated fair value has remained below amortized cost as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company classified approximately 9.0% and 8.5%, respectively, of its fixed maturity securities in the Level 3 category (refer to Note 6 – “Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information). These securities primarily consist of private placement corporate and asset-backed securities.
See “Securities Borrowing, Lending and Repurchase Agreements” 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.

Funds Withheld at Interest
For reinsurance agreements written on a modified coinsurance basis and certain agreements written on a coinsurance basis, assets equal to the net statutory reserves are withheld and legally owned and managed by the ceding company, and are reflected as funds withheld at interest on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. In the event of a ceding company’s insolvency, the Company would need to assert a claim on the assets supporting its reserve liabilities. However, the risk of loss to the Company is mitigated by its ability to offset amounts it owes the ceding company for claims or allowances against amounts owed by the ceding company. Interest accrues to the total funds withheld at interest assets at rates defined by the treaty terms. The Company is subject to the investment performance on the withheld assets, although it does not directly control them. These assets are primarily fixed maturity investment securities and pose risks similar to the fixed maturity securities the Company owns. To mitigate this risk, the Company helps set the investment guidelines followed by the ceding company and monitors compliance. Ceding companies with funds withheld at interest had an average financial strength rating of “A” as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Certain ceding companies maintain segregated portfolios for the benefit of the Company.
Other Invested Assets
Other invested assets include limited partnership interests, joint ventures (other than operating joint ventures), lifetime mortgages, derivative contracts, FHLB common stock and unit-linked investments. See “Other Invested Assets” in Note 4 – “Investments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a table that presents the carrying value of the Company’s other invested assets by type as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments to protect the Company against possible changes in the fair value of its investment portfolio as a result of interest rate changes, to hedge against risk of changes in the purchase price of securities, to hedge liabilities associated with the reinsurance of variable annuities with guaranteed living benefits and to manage the portfolio’s effective yield, maturity and duration. In addition, the Company utilizes derivative financial instruments to reduce the risk associated with fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company uses exchange-traded, centrally cleared, and customized over-the-counter derivative financial instruments.
See Note 5 – “Derivative Instruments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a table that presents the notional amounts and fair value of investment related derivative instruments held as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
The Company may be exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to derivative financial instruments. Generally, the credit exposure of the Company’s derivative contracts is limited to the fair value and accrued interest of non-collateralized derivative contracts in an asset position at the reporting date. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had credit exposure of $16 million.
The Company manages its credit risk related to over-the-counter derivatives by entering into transactions with creditworthy counterparties, maintaining collateral arrangements and through the use of master agreements that provide for a single net payment to be made by one counterparty to another at each due date and upon termination. As exchange-traded futures are affected through regulated exchanges, and positions are marked to market on a daily basis, the Company has minimal exposure to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties. See Note 5 – “Derivative Instruments” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information regarding the Company’s derivative instruments.
The Company holds $823 million and $758 million of beneficial interest in lifetime mortgages in the UK, net of allowance for credit losses, as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Investment income includes $10 million and $13 million in interest income earned on lifetime mortgages for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Lifetime mortgages represent loans provided to individuals 55 years of age and older secured by the borrower’s residence. Lifetime mortgages are comparable to a home equity loan by allowing the borrower to utilize the equity in their home as collateral. The amount of the loan is dependent on the appraised value of the home at the time of origination, the borrower's age and interest rate. Unlike a home equity loan, no payment of principal or interest is required until the death of the borrower or sale of the home. Lifetime mortgages may also be either fully funded at origination, or the borrower can request periodic funding similar to a line of credit. Lifetime mortgages are subject to risks, including market, credit, interest rate, liquidity, operational, reputational and legal risks.

ITEM 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk is the risk of fluctuations in the value of financial instruments as a result of absolute or relative changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, equity prices or commodity prices. To varying degrees, the Company products and services, and the investment activities supporting them, generate exposure to market risk. The market risk incurred, and the Company’s strategies for managing this risk, vary by product.  As of March 31, 2022, there have been no material changes in the Company’s economic exposure to market risk or the Company’s Enterprise Risk Management function from December 31, 2021, a description of which may be found in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2021, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk,” filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
ITEM 4.  Controls and Procedures
The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

On January 24, 2019, RGA’s board of directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $400 million of RGA’s outstanding common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, RGA repurchased 219,116 shares of common stock under this program for $25 million.
On February 25, 2022, RGA’s board of directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $400 million of RGA’s outstanding common stock. The authorization was effective immediately and does not have an expiration date. In connection with this authorization, the board of directors terminated the stock repurchase authority granted in 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, RGA did not repurchase any shares of common stock under this program.
The pace of repurchase activity depends on various factors such as the level of available cash, an evaluation of the costs and benefits associated with alternative uses of excess capital, such as acquisitions and in force reinsurance transactions, and RGA’s stock price.

Exhibit 10.1
REINSURANCE GROUP OF AMERICA, INCORPORATED
FLEXIBLE STOCK PLAN
PERFORMANCE CONTINGENT SHARE AGREEMENT
Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated, a Missouri corporation (the “Company”), and <first_name> <last_name> (“Employee”), hereby agree as follows:
SECTION 1
GRANT OF PERFORMANCE SHARES
Pursuant to the Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated Flexible Stock Plan as amended and restated on May 23, 2017 and further amended effective May 19, 2021 (the “Plan”), and pursuant to action of the Committee charged with the Plan’s administration, the Company has granted to Employee, effective March 22, 2022 (the “Date of Grant”), subject to the terms, conditions and limitations stated in this Performance Contingent Share Agreement (this “Agreement”), the Plan and the Company’s Executive Compensation Recoupment Policy (as discussed in Section 6(c)), an award of performance contingent shares with respect to <shares_awarded> shares of Common Stock (the “Target Grant”). The performance contingent shares awarded to Employee in this Agreement are referred to herein as “Performance Shares.”
SECTION 2
TERMS OF GRANT
(a)Performance Period. The performance period for this award is the three (3) year period beginning January 1 of the year of grant and ending December 31 of the second year following the year of grant (i.e., year 3) (the “Performance Period”).
(b)Payment.
(1)Performance Shares Payable In Common Stock. Subject to early termination of this Agreement pursuant to Sections 4 or 5 below, as soon as practicable following the end of the Performance Period, the Company shall determine the Average ROE (as defined in Section 3(c)), BVPS Growth (as defined in Section 3(d)) and rTSR Percentile Ranking (as defined in Section 3(h)) over such Performance Period. The Company shall then adjust the number of Performance Shares constituting the Target Grant as provided in Section 3 to determine the number of Performance Shares earned hereunder. On or after January 1 but no later than December 31 following the last day of the Performance Period, the Company will deliver to Employee one (1) Share of the Company’s Common Stock for each Performance Share earned under this Agreement; provided, however, that any fractional Performance Share shall be paid in cash equal to such fraction of the Fair Market Value of a Share of Common Stock on the date of payment.
(2)Dividend Equivalents. Performance Shares shall not include dividend equivalent payments or dividend credit rights.



    1


SECTION 3
PERFORMANCE CRITERIA AND ADJUSTMENTS
(a)Performance Criteria. The measures and weights for the grant of Performance Shares subject to this Agreement are set forth in a memorandum (the “Memorandum”) provided to Employee by the Company.
(b)Adjustment of Target Grant. As specified in the Memorandum, the number of Performance Shares in the Target Grant will be adjusted at the end of the Performance Period as determined by the Committee as follows:
(1)Fifty percent (50.0%) of the number of Performance Shares in the Target Grant will increase or decrease based upon the Company’s Average ROE over the Performance Period;
(2)Fifty percent (50.0%) of the number of Performance Shares in the Target Grant will increase or decrease based upon the Company’s BVPS Growth over the Performance Period (the adjustments described in Sections 3(b)(1) and 3(b)(2) shall be collectively referred to as the “Initial Adjustments”); and
(3)The final number of Performance Shares in the Target Grant will increase or decrease by multiplying (i) the number of Performance Shares after calculating the Initial Adjustments, and (ii) the rTSR Factor as set forth in the Memorandum.
In no event will Employee be entitled to receive a total number of shares of Common Stock with respect to Performance Shares in excess of 200% of the Target Grant, even if the Company’s Average ROE, BVPS Growth, and/or rTSR Percentile Ranking during the Performance Period exceeds the maximum values established for any such measure(s).
(c)Average ROE. “Average ROE” means the average adjusted operating return, excluding standard adjustments, on equity, excluding AOCI, for the trailing twelve-month period for each of the three years of the Performance Period. Standard adjustments identified are actuarial assumption reviews (e.g., mortality, morbidity, and lapse assumption changes and their impact on reserves and the carrying value of deferred acquisition costs), variable investment income outside of a range of -50% to +50% of income on these investments included in the three-year plan, and integration costs or other adjustments related to merger and acquisition activity.  Standard adjustments represent a positive or negative impact to adjusted operating income. Adjusted operating return on equity is a non-GAAP financial measure.
(d)BVPS Growth. “BVPS Growth” means the average of the annual growth rates in book value per share, excluding AOCI, for each year in the Performance Period. BVPS Growth is a non-GAAP financial measure.
(e)Potential Adjustments. Each of Average ROE and BVPS Growth targets shall be adjusted by the Committee following the date of this Agreement to account for the effects of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Update 2018-12, Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts (LDTI). In addition, each of Average ROE and BVPS Growth may be adjusted by the Committee from time to time following the date of this Agreement to account for the effects of unusual or non-recurring accounting impacts or changes in accounting standards or treatment or any other unusual or extraordinary items as determined by the Committee.
(f)Peer Group. “Peer Group” shall mean group of competitor companies as determined by the Committee from time to time and as provided separately to Employee. If the Committee
    2


determines in its informed judgment that a significant event has occurred that the Committee expects to have, or the Committee determines has had, a substantial effect on the business or Total Shareholder Return (as defined below) of any company in the Peer Group, including by way of example events such as bankruptcies, insolvencies, delisting, and divestitures, mergers, acquisitions, or similar transactions in each case that significantly change the major markets or operational scope of the business, it will remove that peer company from the Peer Group. A company that is removed from the Peer Group before the end of the Performance Period will be excluded from the calculation of rTSR Percentile Ranking.
(g)Total Shareholder Return. “Total Shareholder Return” shall mean total shareholder return as applied to the Company or any company in the Peer Group, determined by comparing the average of the applicable company’s closing stock prices over the 20 trading days immediately preceding the first day of the Performance Period with the average of the applicable company’s closing stock prices over the last 20 trading days of the Performance Period, including dividends (if any) when actually paid on Shares or peer company common stock, as applicable, on a reinvested basis during the applicable period.
(h)rTSR Percentile Ranking. “rTSR Percentile Ranking” shall mean the relative ranking of the Company’s Total Shareholder Return as compared to the Total Shareholder Returns of the Peer Group companies, expressed as a percentile ranking.
SECTION 4
CONDITIONS AND LIMITATIONS ON RIGHT TO RECEIVE
PERFORMANCE SHARES OR COMMON SHARES

(a)Demotion or Transfer. If Employee is demoted or transferred to a position with the Company or any of its Affiliates in which Employee is not eligible to participate in the Plan prior to the expiration of the Performance Period, as determined by the Committee, this Agreement will terminate and be of no further force or effect and the Performance Shares awarded to Employee hereunder shall be forfeited.
(b)Termination of Employment.

(1)Death or Disability. If Employee ceases to be employed by the Company or any of its Affiliates prior to the expiration of the Performance Period due to death or Disability, Employee (or, upon Employee’s death, the legal representative of Employee’s estate or revocable living trust) shall receive a pro rata proportion of the shares of Common Stock that would have been issued to Employee under this Agreement, determined by multiplying such shares by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar months in the Performance Period during which Employee’s employment continued, and the denominator of which is 36. Such pro rata proportion shall be paid to Employee (or, upon Employee’s death, the legal representative of Employee’s estate or revocable living trust) at the same time and in the same manner as specified in Section 2(b) above. Employment for any portion of a calendar month shall be deemed employment for that calendar month. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean disability as defined in any long-term disability plan maintained by the Company or an Affiliate which covers Employee or, in the absence of any such plan, the physical or mental condition of Employee arising during the Performance Period, which in the opinion of a qualified physician chosen by the Company prevents Employee from continuing employment with the Company and its Affiliates.
(2)Retirement. If Employee ceases to be a full-time employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates (as may be determined by the Company or such Affiliate from time to time) at any time during the first year of the Performance Period due to
    3


Retirement, this Agreement will terminate and be of no further force or effect and the Performance Shares awarded to Employee hereunder shall be forfeited, unless otherwise determined by the Committee.
If Employee ceases to be employed by the Company or any of its Affiliates at any time during the second or third year of the Performance Period due to Retirement, Employee (or, upon Employee’s death following Retirement, the legal representative of Employee’s estate or revocable living trust) shall receive the shares of Common Stock that would have been issued to Employee under this Agreement had the Retirement not occurred, payable as set forth in Section 2(b) above; provided, however, that (i) Employee must maintain full-time equivalent employment status (as may be determined by the Company or such Affiliate) through December 31 of the first year of the Performance Period and (ii) if, following any such Retirement, Employee is employed by or associated with an organization that competes with the Company or any of its Affiliates as determined by the Committee, this Agreement will terminate and be of no further force or effect and the Performance Shares awarded to Employee hereunder shall be forfeited, unless otherwise determined by the Committee.
For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” shall mean termination of employment with the Company and its Affiliates after Employee has attained a combination of age and years of service that equals at least sixty-five (65); provided that, (A) Employee has been employed by the Company and its Affiliates for at least five (5) years and (B) the maximum number of years of service credited for purposes of this calculation shall be ten (10).
(3)Other Termination. If Employee’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates is terminated prior to payment of the shares of Common Stock as specified in Section 2(b) above, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, for any reason other than death, Disability or Retirement, this Agreement will terminate and be of no further force or effect and the Performance Shares awarded to Employee hereunder shall be forfeited, unless otherwise determined by the Committee.
SECTION 5
CHANGE OF CONTROL

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if a Change of Control occurs during the Performance Period prior to Employee’s death, Disability, Retirement or other termination of employment, the number of Performance Shares in the Target Grant shall not be adjusted at the end of the Performance Period as provided in Section 3(b) and Employee shall instead be deemed to have earned the number of Performance Shares constituting the Target Grant. The number of shares of Common Stock due following a Change of Control determined in accordance with Sections 1 and 2(b) and this Section 5 (and, upon Employee’s death, Disability or Retirement prior to the end of the Performance Period, Section 4(b)) shall be delivered to Employee (or, upon Employee’s death, the legal representative of Employee’s estate or revocable living trust) at the same time and in the same manner as specified in Section 2(b) above. Section 4(b)(3) shall not apply in the case of involuntary termination of Employee’s employment by the Company or an Affiliate following a Change of Control other than for cause. For purposes of this Section, “cause” shall mean (a) any conduct, act or omission that is contrary to Employee’s duties as an officer or employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates, or that is inimical or in any way contrary to the best interests of the Company or any of its Affiliates, or (b) employment of Employee by or association of Employee with an organization that competes with the Company or any of its Affiliates, in each case as determined by the Committee.

    (b)    Non-assignability. The Performance Shares shall not be transferable by Employee other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution; provided that, Employee may transfer the Performance Shares during his or her lifetime to a revocable living trust of which Employee is grantor, or to another form of trust indenture of which Employee is a grantor or a beneficiary.

    (c)    Recoupment. The awards granted pursuant to this Agreement are subject to the terms and conditions contained in the Company’s Executive Compensation Recoupment Policy (the “Recoupment Policy”), which permits the Company to recoup all or a portion of awards made to certain employees upon the occurrence of any Recoupment Event (as defined in the Recoupment Policy).

(d)     Securities Law Requirements. The Company shall not be required to issue shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement unless and until (i) such shares have been duly listed upon each stock exchange on which the Company’s Common Stock is then registered and (ii) a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to such shares is then effective.

An Employee may from time to time revoke or change any such designation of beneficiary and any designation of beneficiary under the Plan shall be controlling over any other disposition, testamentary or otherwise; provided, however, that if the Committee shall be in doubt as to the right of any such beneficiary to receive shares of Common Stock, the Committee may recognize only receipt of such shares by the personal representative of the estate of Employee, in which case the Company, the Committee and the members thereof shall not be under any further liability to anyone.

    (f)    Changes in Capital Structure.

The issuance of shares of Common Stock for consideration and the issuance of rights with respect to Common Stock shall not be considered a change in the Company’s capital structure. No adjustment provided for in this Section shall require the issuance of any fractional shares.

    5


    (h)    Tax Withholding. Employee must pay, or make arrangements acceptable to the Company for the payment of any and all federal, state and local tax withholding that in the opinion of the Company is required by law.

(k)    Execution. An authorized representative of the Company has signed this Agreement, and Employee has signed this Agreement to evidence Employee’s acceptance of the award on the terms specified in this Agreement and the Plan, all as of the Date of Grant.
(l)    Section 409A. This Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code or an exemption thereunder and shall be construed and interpreted in a manner that is consistent with the requirements for avoiding additional taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no representations that the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Code and in no event shall the Company be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by Employee on account of non-compliance with Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if Employee is determined to be a specified employee within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, any payment on account of termination of employment shall be made on the first payroll date which is more than six months following the date of Employee’s termination of employment to the extent required to avoid any adverse tax consequences under Section 409A of the Code.

STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHT AWARD AGREEMENT

    Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated, a Missouri corporation (the “Company”), and <first_name> <last_name> (“Employee”) hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1
GRANT OF STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHT

    Pursuant to the Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated Flexible Stock Plan, as amended and restated on May 23, 2017 and further amended effective May 19, 2021 (the “Plan”), and pursuant to action of the Committee charged with the Plan’s administration, the Company has granted to Employee, effective March 22, 2022 (the “Date of Grant”), subject to the terms, conditions and limitations stated in this Stock Appreciation Right Award Agreement (this “Agreement”), the Plan and the Company’s Executive Compensation Recoupment Policy (as discussed in Section 8(c)), a stock appreciation right (“SAR”), which is granted with respect to <shares_awarded> shares (each, a “SAR Share”) of Common Stock. The SAR is exercisable as provided in Section 3.

SECTION 2
EXERCISE PRICE PER SAR SHARE

    The “Exercise Price” per SAR Share shall be $106.53 which is the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock as of the Date of Grant.

SECTION 3
EXERCISE OF SAR

    (a)    Right to Exercise. This SAR is exercisable at any time prior to the Expiration Date, but only to the extent vested on the date of such exercise.

    (b)    Terms of Exercise. Upon exercise of any vested portion of the SAR in accordance with this Section 3, Employee or the individual, trust or entity authorized to exercise such SAR as provided herein (collectively, the “Exercisor”) shall be entitled to receive the excess of (i) the Fair Market Value of the specified number of SAR Shares as of the date of exercise (which shall be determined by multiplying the number of SAR Shares being exercised by the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the date of exercise) over (ii) an amount equal to the Exercise Price Per Share multiplied by the number of SAR Shares being exercised. Such excess, if any, shall be paid either (x) in whole shares of Common Stock, the number of which shall be determined using the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock as of the date of exercise, disregarding any fractional shares, or (y) in cash, with such method of payment to be determined by the Committee from time to time.

    (c)    Method of Exercise. The SAR may be exercised in whole or in part by the Exercisor at any time or from time to time in accordance with procedures established by the Committee. As promptly as practicable after such exercise of the SAR, the Company shall issue the number of shares of Common Stock or pay the amount of cash, as applicable, determined pursuant to Section 3(b) above to the Exercisor. Each exercised SAR will be cancelled.

(d) Automatic Exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Fair Market Value of an SAR Share on the Expiration Date or, if applicable, the earlier termination date of the Option in accordance with Section 4(b)(2) (each, a “Covered Termination Event”) exceeds the Exercise
88892


Price, then to the extent the SARs have not theretofore been exercised, expired or otherwise terminated, the Company shall cause the SARs to be automatically exercised immediately prior to its termination on the Expiration Date or, if applicable, following the earlier Covered Termination Event, and to provide for the full Purchase Price and related withholding taxes thereon (as described in Section 8(g)) to be satisfied through a cash payment, except as prohibited by applicable law, through the sale of Common Shares that would otherwise be delivered to the Employee having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the date of exercise, equal to the amount necessary to satisfy the Exercise Price and the withholding taxes thereon; provided, however, if the forgoing method for the payment of the Exercise Price and the withholding taxes thereon is prohibited by applicable law, then the payment of the Exercise Price and related withholding taxes shall be satisfied by withholding Common Shares that would otherwise be delivered to the Employee having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the date of exercise, equal to the amount necessary to satisfy the Exercise Price and the withholding taxes thereon. This Section is intended to constitute a written plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.


SECTION 4
CONDITIONS AND LIMITATIONS ON RIGHT TO EXERCISE SAR

    (a)    Vesting. Subject to paragraph (b) of this Section and subject to Sections 6 and 7, this SAR shall vest in four (4) equal annual installments of 25% commencing December 31 of the year of the Date of Grant.  The SAR must be exercised, if at all, no later than ten (10) years from the Date of Grant (the “Expiration Date”).  The SAR may be exercised in full or in part pursuant to this vesting schedule at any time prior to the Expiration Date.  Upon a partial exercise of this SAR, the number of SAR Shares available for future exercise shall be reduced by the portion of the SAR so exercised.


Date
Cumulative Percentage of
SAR Shares That Are Vested
December 31, 2022
25%
December 31, 202350%
December 31, 202475%
December 31, 2025100%
    (b)    Exercise if No Longer an Employee.

    (1)    Termination. Except as provided in paragraphs (2) or (3) below, the SAR may be exercised only by Employee while serving as an officer or employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates or within 30 days following termination of employment.

    Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee may exercise the SAR following termination only to the extent the SAR was vested and had not been exercised prior to termination, and in no event may the SAR be exercised after the Expiration Date.

    An approved leave of absence shall not constitute a termination for purposes of this Section so long as Employee’s right to re-employment is guaranteed either by statute, local law, contract or pursuant to any Company policy. Where re-employment is not so guaranteed, termination shall be deemed to occur on the first day after the end of such approved period of leave.

    (2)    Disability or Death. Notwithstanding the vesting schedule set forth in Section 4(a) above, if Employee ceases to be employed by the Company or any of its
88892    2


Affiliates prior to the Expiration Date due to Disability or death, the SAR shall become immediately 100% vested with respect to the portion of the SAR not exercised prior to the date of Disability or death, and the SAR may be exercised at any time within five (5) years following the earlier to occur of death or Disability, but in no event later than the Expiration Date. Should this Section 4(b)(2) become operative because of Employee’s death, or should Employee die after Employee’s Disability, then the SAR may be exercised by: (i) a legatee or legatees of Employee under Employee’s last will; (ii) Employee’s personal representative(s) under Employee’s last will or, if Employee died without a will, the executor of Employee’s probate estate; or (iii) the trustee(s) of Employee’s revocable living trust or of a trust indenture of which Employee is a grantor or a beneficiary.

    For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” means disability as defined in any long-term disability plan maintained by the Company or an Affiliate which covers Employee or, in the absence of any such plan, the physical or mental condition of Employee arising prior to the Expiration Date, which in the opinion of a qualified physician chosen by the Company prevents Employee from continuing employment with the Company and its Affiliates.

    (3)    Retirement.     If Employee ceases to be a full-time employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates (as may be determined by the Company or such Affiliate) at any time on or prior to December 31 of the year of the Date of Grant due to Retirement, this Agreement will terminate and be of no further force or effect and the SAR awarded to Employee hereunder shall be forfeited, unless otherwise determined by the Committee.

    Upon Employee’s Retirement following December 31 of the year of the Date of Grant but prior to the Expiration Date, the SAR shall continue to vest following such Retirement as provided in Section 4(a) above and shall remain exercisable as if Employee had continued his or her employment with the Company or its Affiliates following such Retirement, subject to Section 7 below; provided, however, that Employee must maintain full-time equivalent employment status (as may be determined by the Company or such Affiliate) through December 31 of the year of the Date of Grant. Notwithstanding the vesting schedule set forth in Section 4(a) above, upon Employee’s death following any such Retirement referred to in the immediately preceding sentence but prior to the Expiration Date, the SAR shall become immediately 100% vested with respect to the portion of the SAR not exercised prior to Employee’s death. The SAR may be exercised at any time within five (5) years following Employee’s death (but in no event later than the Expiration Date) by: (i) a legatee or legatees of Employee under Employee’s last will; (ii) Employee’s personal representative(s) under Employee’s last will or, if Employee died without a will, the executor of Employee’s probate estate; or (iii) the trustee(s) of Employee’s revocable living trust or of a trust indenture of which Employee is a grantor or a beneficiary. In no event may any portion of this SAR be exercised after the Expiration Date.
For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” shall mean termination of employment with the Company and its Affiliates after Employee has attained a combination of age and years of service that equals at least sixty-five (65); provided that, (A) Employee has been employed by the Company and its Affiliates for at least five (5) years and (B) the maximum number of years of service credited for purposes of this calculation shall be ten (10).
(c)    Dividend Equivalents. SARs shall not include dividend equivalent payments or dividend credit rights.
88892    3


SECTION 5
DELIVERY OF SHARES

    The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any shares of Common Stock, if applicable, upon the exercise of this SAR prior to (a) the admission of such shares to listing on any stock exchange on which the Company’s Common Stock may then be listed, (b) the completion of any registration and/or qualification of such shares under any state or federal laws (including without limitation the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) or rulings or regulations of any governmental regulatory body, which the Company shall determine to be necessary or advisable, or (c) if the Company so requests, the filing with the Company by the Exercisor of a representation in writing at the time of such exercise that it is such Exercisor’s present intention to acquire the shares being purchased for investment and not for resale or distribution.

SECTION 6
CHANGE OF CONTROL

    Notwithstanding the vesting schedule set forth in Section 4(a), upon a Change of Control prior to Employee’s termination, Retirement, Disability or death (as described in Section 4(b)), the SAR shall become immediately 100% vested with respect to the portion of the SAR not exercised prior to the Change of Control (but in no event may Employee exercise any portion of the SAR after the Expiration Date).

SECTION 7
CANCELLATION

     Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement shall be cancelled and the SAR granted hereby shall be forfeited, without any further action by the Committee, as a result of Employee’s Malfeasance. Upon such cancellation, all rights of Employee hereunder shall terminate, irrespective of whether the SAR is otherwise vested, and the shares of Common Stock reserved for use hereunder shall be available for future grant in accordance with the Plan. “Malfeasance” means (1) any conduct, act or omission that is contrary to Employee’s duties as an officer or employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates, or that is inimical or in any way contrary to the best interests of the Company or any of its Affiliates, or (2) employment of Employee by or association of Employee with an organization that competes with the Company or any of its Affiliates, in each case as determined by the Committee.

SECTION 8
MISCELLANEOUS

    (a)    Rights in Shares Prior to Issuance. Prior to issuance of shares of Common Stock in accordance with Section 3, neither Employee nor his or her legatees, personal representatives or distributees (i) shall be deemed to be a holder of any shares of Common Stock subject to this SAR or (ii) have any voting rights with respect to any such shares.

    (b)    Non-assignability. This SAR shall not be transferable by Employee other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution; provided that, Employee may transfer the SAR during his or her lifetime to a revocable living trust of which Employee is grantor, or to another form of trust indenture of which Employee is a grantor or a beneficiary. This SAR may be exercised during Employee’s lifetime only by: Employee; Employee’s guardian, power of attorney, or legal representative; or the trustee of Employee’s revocable living trust or of a trust indenture of which Employee is a grantor or a beneficiary.

    (c)    Recoupment. The awards granted pursuant to this Agreement are subject to the terms and conditions contained in the Company’s Executive Compensation Recoupment Policy
88892    4


(the “Recoupment Policy”), which permits the Company to recoup all or a portion of awards made to certain employees upon the occurrence of any Recoupment Event (as defined in the Recoupment Policy).

    (d)    Designation of Beneficiaries. Employee may file with the Company a written designation of a beneficiary or beneficiaries to exercise, upon Employee’s death, the SAR granted hereunder, subject to all of the provisions of this Agreement. An Employee may from time to time revoke or change any such designation of beneficiary and any designation of beneficiary under the Plan shall be controlling over any other disposition, testamentary or otherwise; provided, however, that if the Committee shall be in doubt as to the right of any such beneficiary to exercise the SAR, the Committee may recognize only an exercise by the personal representative of the estate of Employee, in which case the Company, the Committee and the members thereof shall not be under any further liability to anyone.

    (e)    Changes in Capital Structure. If there is any change in the Common Stock by reason of any extraordinary dividend, stock dividend, spin-off, split-up, spin-out, recapitalization, warrant or rights issuance or combination, exchange or reclassification of shares, merger, consolidation, reorganization, sale of substantially all assets or, as determined by the Committee, other similar or relevant event, then the number, kind and class of shares of Common Stock available for SARs and the number, kind and class of shares of Common Stock subject to outstanding SARs and the exercise price thereof, as applicable, shall be appropriately adjusted by the Committee. The issuance of shares of Common Stock for consideration and the issuance of rights with respect to Common Stock shall not be considered a change in the Company’s capital structure. No adjustment provided for in this Section shall require the issuance of any fractional shares.

    (f)    Right to Continued Employment. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer on Employee any right to continued employment or interfere with the right of an employer to terminate Employee’s employment at any time.

    (g)    Tax Withholding. Employee must pay, or make arrangements acceptable to the Company for the payment of any and all federal, state and local tax withholding that in the opinion of the Company is required by law. Unless Employee satisfies any such tax withholding obligation by paying the amount in cash or by check, the Company will withhold shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding equal to the tax withholding obligation.

REINSURANCE GROUP OF AMERICA, INCORPORATED
FLEXIBLE STOCK PLAN

NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

    Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated, a Missouri corporation (the “Company”), and [«FirstName» «LastName»] (“Employee”) hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1
GRANT OF OPTION

    Pursuant to the Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated Flexible Stock Plan, as amended and restated on May 23, 2017 and further amended effective May 19, 2021 (the “Plan”), and pursuant to action of the Committee charged with the Plan’s administration, the Company has granted to Employee, effective March 22, 2022 (the “Date of Grant”), subject to the terms, conditions and limitations stated in this Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement (this “Agreement”), the Plan and the Company’s Executive Compensation Recoupment Policy (as discussed in Section 8(c)), an option (“Option”) to purchase, at the price specified in Section 2, [«No_of_Options»] shares (each, an “Option Share”) of Common Stock. The Option is exercisable as provided in Section 3.

SECTION 2
OPTION PRICE

    The purchase price per Option Share shall be $106.53 (the “Purchase Price”), which is the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock as of the Date of Grant.

SECTION 3
EXERCISE OF OPTION

    (a)    Right to Exercise. This Option is exercisable at any time prior to the Expiration Date, but only to the extent vested on the date of such exercise.

    (b)    Method of Exercise. The Option may be exercised in whole or in part by Employee or any other individual, trust or entity authorized pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to exercise the Option (collectively, the “Exercisor”) at any time or from time to time in accordance with procedures established by the Committee. As promptly as practicable after such exercise of the Option, the Company shall issue the number of shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 3(c) or, at the option of the Exercisor, pay the amount of cash determined pursuant to Section 3(d) to the Exercisor.

(c)    Terms of Exercise. Upon exercise of any vested portion of the Option in accordance with this Section 3, the Exercisor shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the Purchase Price multiplied by the number of Option Shares being exercised. As promptly as practicable after such exercise of the Option, the Company shall issue the specified number of shares of Common Stock to the Exercisor. Each exercised Option will be cancelled.

(d)    Net Settlement. The Exercisor may, at its sole discretion, exercise an Option by way of “net settlement” as provided in Section 12.1(d) of the Plan. In order to exercise an Option by way of “net settlement,” the Exercisor must provide written notice to the Company and designate the number of Options subject to the “net settlement” election. The Exercisor shall surrender the Option in exchange for a consideration equal to the excess of (i) the Fair Market



Value of the specified number of Option Shares as of the date of exercise (which shall be determined by multiplying the number of Option Shares subject to the Option being exercised by the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the date of exercise) over (ii) an amount equal to the Purchase Price multiplied by the number of Option Shares subject to the Option being exercised (such excess, the “Option Value”). The Option Value (if a positive value) shall be paid in shares of Common Stock. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued is equal to the Option Value divided by the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the date of exercise. Fractional shares will be paid in cash.  Each exercised Option will be cancelled.

If the Exercisor elects to exercise an Option by way of “net settlement,” subject to the requirements of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Act”), and if the Employee is subject to taxation in Canada, the Company hereby agrees that it will elect under Subsection 110(1.1) of the Act, in the prescribed manner, that neither the Company, nor any person not dealing at arm’s length with the Company, will deduct any amount in computing its income for a taxation year in respect of any amount to or for the benefit of Employee for the surrender of rights under this Agreement.

(e) Automatic Exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Fair Market Value of an Option Share on the Expiration Date or, if applicable, the earlier termination date of the Option in accordance with Section 4(b)(2) (each, a “Covered Termination Event”) exceeds the Purchase Price per share of the Option, then to the extent the Option has not theretofore been exercised, expired or otherwise terminated, the Company shall cause the Option to be automatically exercised immediately prior to its termination on the Expiration Date or, if applicable, following the earlier Covered Termination Event, and to provide for the full Purchase Price and related withholding taxes thereon (as described in Section 8(h)) to be satisfied through a cash payment, except as prohibited by applicable law, through the sale of Common Shares that would otherwise be delivered to the Employee having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the date of exercise, equal to the amount necessary to satisfy the Purchase Price and the withholding taxes thereon; provided, however, if the forgoing method for the payment of the Purchase Price and the withholding taxes thereon is prohibited by applicable law, then the payment of the Purchase Price and related withholding taxes shall be satisfied by withholding Common Shares that would otherwise be delivered to the Employee having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the date of exercise, equal to the amount necessary to satisfy the Purchase Price and the withholding taxes thereon. This Section is intended to constitute a written plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

SECTION 4

    (b)    Exercise if No Longer an Employee.

    (1)    Termination. Except as provided in paragraphs (2) or (3) below, the Option may be exercised only by Employee while actually and actively serving as an officer or employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates or within 30 days following termination of employment.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee may exercise the Option following termination of employment only to the extent the Option was vested and had not been exercised prior to such termination, and in no event may the Option be exercised after the Expiration Date.
    
For the purposes of this Agreement, an Employee’s termination of employment shall be deemed to occur on the Employee’s last day of actual and active employment, whether such date is chosen by the Employee, the Company or any of its Affiliates, or otherwise; provided that, an approved leave of absence shall not constitute a termination of employment for purposes of this Section so long as Employee’s right to re-employment is guaranteed either by statute, local law, contract or pursuant to any Company policy. Where re-employment is not so guaranteed, termination of employment of an employee on a leave of absence shall be deemed to occur on the first day after the end of such approved period of leave for the purposes of this Option.

For greater certainty, except as specifically required by statute, no period of notice, if any, or payment in lieu of notice, that is or ought to be given under applicable law or contract to the Employee upon termination of the Employee’s employment that follows or is in respect of a period that follows the Employee’s last day of actual and active employment shall be considered as extending the Employee’s period of employment for the purposes of determining the Employee’s rights under this Option.

The Employee shall have no entitlement to damages or other compensation arising from or related to not receiving any shares of Common Stock or cash which would have been granted or paid to the Employee after the Employee’s last day of active and actual employment. However, nothing herein is intended to limit any statutory entitlements on termination and such statutory entitlements shall, if required, apply despite any language to the contrary.

    (2)    Disability or Death. Notwithstanding the vesting schedule set forth in Section 4(a) above, if Employee ceases to be employed by the Company or any of its Affiliates prior to the Expiration Date due to Disability or death, the Option shall become immediately 100% vested with respect to the portion of the Option not exercised prior to the date of Disability or death, and the Option may be exercised at any time within five (5) years following the earlier to occur of death or Disability, but in no event later than the Expiration Date. Should this Section 4(b)(2) become operative because of Employee’s death, or should Employee die after Employee’s Disability, then the Option may be exercised by: (i) a legatee or legatees of Employee under Employee’s last will; (ii) Employee’s personal representative(s) under Employee’s last will or, if Employee died without a will, the executor of Employee’s probate estate; or (iii) the trustee(s) of Employee’s revocable living trust or of a trust indenture of which Employee is a grantor or a beneficiary.
3



    
For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” means disability as defined in any long-term disability plan maintained by the Company or an Affiliate which covers Employee or, in the absence of any such plan, the physical or mental condition of Employee arising prior to the Expiration Date, which in the opinion of a qualified physician chosen by the Company prevents Employee from continuing employment with the Company and its Affiliates.

    (3)    Retirement. If Employee ceases to be a full-time employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates (as may be determined by the Company or such Affiliate) at any time on or prior to December 31 of the year of the Date of Grant due to Retirement, this Agreement will terminate and be of no further force or effect and the Option awarded to Employee hereunder shall be forfeited, unless otherwise determined by the Committee.

Upon Employee’s Retirement following December 31 of the year of the Date of Grant but prior to the Expiration Date, the Option shall continue to vest following such Retirement as provided in Section 4(a) above and shall remain exercisable as if Employee had continued his or her employment with the Company or its Affiliates following such Retirement, subject to Section 7 below; provided, however, that Employee must maintain full-time equivalent employment status (as may be determined by the Company or such Affiliate) through December 31 of the year of the Date of Grant. Notwithstanding the vesting schedule set forth in Section 4(a) above, upon Employee’s death following any such Retirement referred to in the immediately preceding sentence but prior to the Expiration Date, the Option shall become immediately 100% vested with respect to the portion of the Option not exercised prior to Employee’s death. The Option may be exercised at any time within five (5) years following Employee’s death (but in no event later than the Expiration Date) by: (i) a legatee or legatees of Employee under Employee’s last will; (ii) Employee’s personal representative(s) under Employee’s last will or, if Employee died without a will, the executor of Employee’s probate estate; or (iii) the trustee(s) of Employee’s revocable living trust or of a trust indenture of which Employee is a grantor or a beneficiary. In no event may any portion of this Option be exercised after the Expiration Date.
    
For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” shall mean termination of employment with the Company and its Affiliates after Employee has attained a combination of age and years of service that equals at least sixty-five (65); provided that, (A) Employee has been employed by the Company and its Affiliates for at least five (5) years and (B) the maximum number of years of service credited for purposes of this calculation shall be ten (10).
    (c)    Dividend Equivalents. This Option shall not include dividend equivalent payments or dividend credit rights.

SECTION 5
DELIVERY OF SHARES

    The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any shares of Common Stock, if applicable, upon the exercise of this Option prior to (a) the admission of such shares to listing on any stock exchange on which the Company’s Common Stock may then be listed, (b) the completion of any registration and/or qualification of such shares under any state or federal laws (including without limitation the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) or rulings or regulations of any governmental regulatory body, which the Company shall determine to be necessary or advisable, or (c) if the Company so requests, the filing with the Company by the Exercisor of a representation in writing at the time of such exercise that it is such Exercisor’s present intention to acquire the shares being purchased for investment and not for resale or distribution.

SECTION 6
CHANGE OF CONTROL

    Notwithstanding the vesting schedule set forth in Section 4(a), upon a Change of Control prior to Employee’s termination, Retirement, Disability or death (as described in Section 4(b)), the Option shall become immediately 100% vested with respect to the portion of the Option not exercised prior to the Change of Control (but in no event may Employee exercise any portion of the Option after the Expiration Date).

SECTION 7
CANCELLATION

     Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement shall be cancelled and the Option granted hereby shall be forfeited, without any further action by the Committee, as a result of Employee’s Malfeasance. Upon such cancellation, all rights of Employee hereunder shall terminate, irrespective of whether the Option is otherwise vested, and the shares of Common Stock reserved for use hereunder shall be available for future grant in accordance with the Plan. “Malfeasance” means (1) any conduct, act or omission that is contrary to Employee’s duties as an officer or employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates, or that is inimical or in any way contrary to the best interests of the Company or any of its Affiliates, or (2) employment of Employee by or association of Employee with an organization that competes with the Company or any of its Affiliates, in each case as determined by the Committee.

SECTION 8
MISCELLANEOUS

    (a)    Rights in Shares Prior to Issuance. Prior to issuance of shares of Common Stock in accordance with Section 3, neither Employee nor his or her legatees, personal representatives or distributees (i) shall be deemed to be a holder of any shares of Common Stock subject to this Option or (ii) have any voting rights with respect to any such shares.

    (b)    Non-assignability. This Option shall not be transferable by Employee other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution; provided that, Employee may transfer the Option during his or her lifetime to a revocable living trust of which Employee is grantor, or to another form of trust indenture of which Employee is a grantor or a beneficiary. This Option may be exercised during Employee’s lifetime only by Employee; Employee’s guardian, power of attorney, or legal representative; or the trustee of Employee’s revocable living trust or of a trust indenture of which Employee is a grantor or a beneficiary.

    (c)    Recoupment. The awards granted pursuant to this Agreement are subject to the terms and conditions contained in the Company’s Executive Compensation Recoupment Policy (the “Recoupment Policy”), which permits the Company to recoup all or a portion of awards made to certain employees upon the occurrence of any Recoupment Event (as defined in the Recoupment Policy).

    (d)    Designation of Beneficiaries. Employee may file with the Company a written designation of a beneficiary or beneficiaries to exercise, upon Employee’s death, the Option granted hereunder, subject to all of the provisions of this Agreement. An Employee may from time to time revoke or change any such designation of beneficiary and any designation of beneficiary under the Plan shall be controlling over any other disposition, testamentary or otherwise; provided, however, that if the Committee shall be in doubt as to the right of any such beneficiary to exercise the Option, the Committee may recognize only an exercise by the
5



personal representative of the estate of Employee, in which case the Company, the Committee and the members thereof shall not be under any further liability to anyone.

    (e)    Changes in Capital Structure. If there is any change in the Common Stock by reason of any extraordinary dividend, stock dividend, spin-off, split-up, spin-out, recapitalization, warrant or rights issuance or combination, exchange or reclassification of shares, merger, consolidation, reorganization, sale of substantially all assets or, as determined by the Committee, other similar or relevant event, then the number, kind and class of shares of Common Stock available for Options and the number, kind and class of shares of Common Stock subject to outstanding Options and the exercise price thereof, as applicable, shall be appropriately adjusted by the Committee. The issuance of shares of Common Stock for consideration and the issuance of rights with respect to Common Stock shall not be considered a change in the Company’s capital structure. No adjustment provided for in this Section shall require the issuance of any fractional shares.

    (f)    Right to Continued Employment. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer on Employee any right to continued employment or interfere with the right of an employer to terminate Employee’s employment at any time.

    (g)    Option Not An Incentive Stock Option. This Option is not, and will not be treated as, an Incentive Stock Option under Section 422 of the Code.

    (h)     Tax Withholding. Employee must pay, or make arrangements acceptable to the Company for the payment of any and all federal, state and local tax withholding that in the opinion of the Company is required by law. Unless Employee satisfies any such tax withholding obligation by paying the amount in cash or by check, the Company will withhold shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding equal to the tax withholding obligation.

(i)    Copy of Plan. By signing this Agreement, Employee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and any offering circular related to the Plan.
(j)    Choice of Law; Venue. This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Missouri, without giving regard to the conflict of law provisions thereof. Any legal action arising out of this Agreement may only be brought in the Circuit Court in St. Louis County and/or the United States District Court in St. Louis, Missouri.
(k)    Execution. An authorized representative of the Company has signed this Agreement, and Employee has signed this Agreement to evidence Employee’s acceptance of the award on the terms specified in this Agreement and the Plan, all as of the Date of Grant.
(l)     Language. The parties acknowledge that it is their express wish that this Agreement, as well as all documents, notices and legal proceedings entered into, given or instituted pursuant hereto or relating directly or indirectly hereto, be drawn up in English. Les parties reconnaissent avoir exigé la redaction en anglais de cette convention ainsi que de tous documents exécutés, avis donnés et procedures judiciaries intentées, directement ou indirectement, relativement à la présente convention.
