Swiss Re sets up Tokyo securities arm.
(From Insurance Day)
Byline: Symon Ross
THE world's number two reinsurer, Swiss Re, announced yesterday that it has established a licensed securities branch in Japan.
The branch, to be known as Swiss Re Capital Markets (Japan), will begin operations today, the company said.
Opening a Tokyo office will allow the reinsurer to extend its Financial Services Business Group range of tailored capital-market products to its Japanese clients, the firm noted.
"Swiss Re Capital Markets Japan's platform will focus on providing integrated capital and risk-management solutions to meet the increasingly complex needs of our key institutional and targeted corporate clients," said Atsuhito Sakai, managing director, representative and branch manager for Swiss Re in Japan.
Swiss Re Capital Markets Japan's offerings will include risk-transfer products such as asset-backed and insurance-linked securitisation, investment products, derivative instruments, asset and liability management and equity research, said Swiss Re.
