Martello Re announces closing of $1.3 billion capital raise consisting of $935 million in equity and a $360 million upsize of the Company's credit facility
Dennis Ho , Chief Executive Officer of Martello Re, noted, "This is an exciting milestone for our company. Since launching a little over two years ago, Martello Re has grown rapidly to more than 70 employees and over $23 billion in assets under management. Today, we are one of the largest asset-intensive reinsurers in the industry and can offer insurers a reinsurance partner with industry-leading underwriting, risk management, and asset management capabilities." Ho continued, "We could not have reached this point without the support of our founders MassMutual, Barings, Centerbridge Partners, and Brown Brothers Harriman as well as the dedication and hard work of our exceptionally talented employees. Our company is excited to continue the execution of our long-term strategy of providing life and annuity insurers with a financially strong reinsurance partner that is dedicated to helping them grow their most important business lines."
In addition to continuing to support the company's two existing cedants as a strategic reinsurance partner across a range of product lines, the capital raised will enable Martello Re to provide reinsurance support to additional cedant partners expected to be added in the coming years, and selectively expand into new business lines and geographies over time. As has been done since launch, execution of Martello Re's strategy will continue to be built on a foundation of maintaining exceptional financial strength, prudent risk management, and creating long-term partnerships with the top insurers in the industry.
