Resolution Life in potential acquisition talks with Nippon Life

Published 12/10/2024, 05:34 PM

HAMILTON, Bermuda - Resolution Life Group, a global insurer specializing in the management of life insurance policies, is reportedly in the final stages of negotiations regarding a potential acquisition by Japan's Nippon Life. The Bermuda-based company addressed recent media speculation, confirming the ongoing discussions but emphasizing that no deal has been finalized.

The life insurance group, which has been operational since 2003, has a history of deploying significant capital in its sector, with around $19 billion utilized in various acquisitions and management projects to date. Resolution Life has a substantial international presence, with operations spanning across Bermuda, the United Kingdom (TADAWUL:4280), the United States, Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore. The company is known for its focus on policyholder security and delivering benefits within a well-capitalized environment.

Despite the confirmation of talks with Nippon Life, Resolution Life underscored the uncertainty surrounding the outcome of these discussions. The company stated that it cannot guarantee the transaction will proceed and promised to make further announcements when appropriate. Claire Singleton is named as the person responsible for arranging the release of the company's statement.

The announcement also contained forward-looking statements, which inherently carry risks and uncertainties due to their reliance on future events. These statements should not be regarded as guarantees of future performance, and the company does not intend to update the public on any changes to these expectations.

Resolution Life's approach to business has been to prioritize existing customers while selectively pursuing new business growth in strategic markets. The company aims to provide a secure destination for insurers restructuring their operations, and it has managed assets totaling approximately $385 billion, serving the needs of over 13 million policyholders.

As this situation develops, the financial community will be closely monitoring the potential implications of such an acquisition within the life insurance industry. The information regarding the ongoing negotiations is based on a press release statement from Resolution Life Group.
