RenaissanceRe creates new Bermuda sidecar
RenaissanceRe has formed a new sidecar purposed to provide collateralized capacity from third party investors to Renaissance Reinsurance, the principal Bermuda-based reinsurance subsidiary of RenaissanceRe Holdings.
Fibonacci Reinsurance, a special purpose insurer, or sidecar, domiciled in Bermuda, has raised $140 million in capital from third party investors and RenaissanceRe Medici Fund.
It has issued participating notes which will be listed on the Bermuda Stock Exchange.
