Hannover Re completes its conversion to an SE
Hannover, 19 March 2013: Hannover Re has completed its conversion to a
European Company, Societas Europaea (SE). With the entry in the commercial
register of Hannover County Court the transformation to the new legal form
came into effect today. The company thus bears the name Hannover Rück SE.
The company's registered office continues to be in Hannover.
'The new legal form underscores our international business operations and
serves as a visible external expression of our corporate self-image as a
European group with worldwide activities', Chief Executive Officer Ulrich
Wallin explained.
Following the Annual General Meeting's approval of the transformation in
May of last year, the negotiations with the Special Negotiating Body
comprised of employee representatives were brought to a successful
conclusion in January 2013. This put in place the necessary conditions for
implementing the change of legal form as planned in the first quarter of
2013.
The company's brand identity remains unaffected by the conversion to
Hannover Rück SE; it will continue to trade under the name Hannover Re.
