  The two parties had a warm and friendly talk prior to the signing ceremony. Mr. Yuan Linjiang gave an introduction to the development history of China Re Group, saying that China Re is the only local reinsurance group in China. Adhering to “China Re Surnamed Reinsurance”, the Group has achieved fruitful results in the “13th Five-Year” strategy, a solid position in the main channel of reinsurance, a high degree of internationalization, and a stable development of businesses. The onsite signing with China Everbright Group was China Re’s “first signing” this year. The two parties may strengthen cooperation in investment and financing, pro-poor cultural tourism, finance + data + technology and other fields on the basis of consolidating existing bancassurance business and equity cooperation, etc. Mr. Yuan also highlighted the achievements of China Re in actively supporting and serving the building of the national Belt and Road Initiative. After four years of efforts, China Re promoted the establishment of the China Belt and Road Reinsurance Pool in July 2020 and served as its chairman and administrator. The acquisition of the UK’s Chaucer has all the more strengthened China Re’s technical advantages and pricing influence in the specialty field. China Re hopes to give full play to its overseas service network and professional advantages in providing specialty protection services for China Everbright Group’s overseas assets security and overseas investment projects.
