Risk management is our strength 

Our business model is based on the combination of primary insurance and reinsurance under one roof. We take on risks worldwide of every type and complexity, and our experience, financial strength, efficiency and first-class service make us the first choice for all matters relating to risk. Our client relationships are built on trust and cooperation.

Munich Re stands for exceptional solution-based expertise, consistent risk management, financial stability and client proximity. In the financial year 2018, Munich Re (Group) achieved a profit of €2,275m on premium income of €49.1bn. It operates in all lines of insurance, with more than 41,000 employees throughout the world.

Reinsurance
With premium income of €31.3bn from reinsurance alone, Munich Re is one of the world's leading reinsurers. We offer a full range of products, from traditional reinsurance to innovative solutions for risk assumption. Especially when clients require solutions for complex risks, Munich Re is a much sought-after business partner. Our roughly 12,000 staff in reinsurance possess unique global and local knowledge. Munich Re attaches great importance to its client service, which regularly receives top ratings.

ERGO
Our primary insurance operations are mainly concentrated in the ERGO Group AG. Worldwide, the Group is represented in over 30 countries and concentrates on Europe and Asia. ERGO offers a comprehensive spectrum of insurance, provision and services. In Germany, ERGO Versicherung AG is one of Germany’s largest providers of property and legal protection insurance. As a specialist in capital-market-oriented insurance, ERGO Vorsorge Lebensversicherung AG is shaping change in the area of private provision and biometric risk products. About 40,000 people work for the Group, either as salaried employees or as full-time self-employed sales representatives. In 2018, ERGO recorded a premium income of €18.7bn.

Asset management
The Group’s worldwide assets of €216.9bn are managed by MEAG. The quality of our asset management proved its worth during the recent financial crisis, which Munich Re weathered with continued financial strength.

A core guiding principle for Munich Re is acting in a far-sighted and responsible manner in the interests of both the Group and society. We have refined our Group-wide corporate responsibility strategy, based on the shared-value approach. This means that, in our business operations, we bring together economic and social progress to counter the most significant global challenges. We are therefore concentrating on mitigating the consequences of climate change; improving access to healthcare for all societal groups worldwide; and increasing risk awareness within our Group, among our staff, clients, shareholders, and in society.

We have the relevant abilities, resources and risk expertise to originate new solutions. In close cooperation with recognised partners, we generate added value through our business solutions and initiatives.

Our voluntary commitments, such as the ten principles of the United Nations Global Compact, the Principles for Responsible Investment, and the Principles for Sustainable Insurance are the foundations of our corporate responsibility approach. In our insurance business and investment management, we proactively embrace environmental and social factors, as well as governance aspects. We have implemented a Group-wide environmental management system, and our operations have been carbon-neutral since 2015. With our social involvement, we fulfil our role as a "good corporate citizen", focusing on projects related to our core business.
