Peak Re successfully completed the issuance of US$350 million Perpetual Subordinated Guaranteed Capital Securities

Peak Reinsurance Company Limited (“Peak Re” or the “Guarantor”), a global reinsurer rooted in Asia, rated A- (Stable) by AM Best and Baa1 (Positive) by Moody’s, has completed the issuance of US$350 million perpetual subordinated guaranteed capital securities (the “Securities”) at a coupon of 5.625 per cent. The Securities are issued by Peak Re (BVI) Holding Limited (the “Issuer”), a wholly‑owned subsidiary of Peak Re, and are unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed by the Guarantor.

The issuance of Securities follows the full redemption on 28 October 2025 of the $250 million perpetual subordinated guaranteed capital securities issued in 2020. The Securities will further strengthen Peak Re’s capital base, enhance underwriting capacity and support Peak Re’s long‑term growth strategy. The hybrid structure provides cost‑efficient capital that complements Peak Re’s conservative balance sheet, supports ratings resilience and preserves financial flexibility across market cycles.

Franz-Josef Hahn, Chief Executive Officer of Peak Re, remarked: “This successful transaction adds durable capital and strengthens our capacity to support clients through the cycle. The strong outcome affirms market confidence in Peak Re and further enhances our resilience as we continue to deliver responsive, sustainable solutions to clients globally.”

Cathy Chen, Chief Financial Officer of Peak Re, said: “We are pleased with the strong demand from a high‑quality and diverse group of investors, including many who supported our inaugural issuance in 2020. With this transaction, we are upsizing our hybrid capital from US$250 million (2020) to US$350 million, broadening our investor base and demonstrating consistent access to international capital markets.”

BNP Paribas, HSBC and Deutsche Bank acted as Joint Global Coordinators, Joint Bookrunners and Joint Lead Managers. ING, MUFG, Société Générale and Standard Chartered Bank acted as Joint Bookrunners and Joint Lead Managers.

This transaction aligns with Peak Re’s commitment to prudent capital management and client‑centric growth. Since its commencement of business in 2012, Peak Re has built a diversified reinsurance platform serving cedents across Life & Health and Property & Casualty lines, supported by disciplined risk selection, robust asset‑liability management and strong governance.
