About Munich Re America


We are known today as Munich Reinsurance America, Inc., but you may remember us as "American Re-Insurance Company" or "American Re" along with the American Eagle and diamond symbols. All of these names and symbols represent the same entity and the products and services offered throughout its history.

With statutory surplus of $4.2 billion, superior reinsurance capacity, and some of the industry’s strongest insurance financial strength ratings, Munich Reinsurance America, Inc. offers the stability, financial security and expertise our clients depend upon. We are a core member of the Munich Re Group, one of the world’s leading reinsurers, which has been meeting the reinsurance needs of its clients since 1880.

We have been serving insureds and self-insured entities since 1917. In 1996 Munich Reinsurance Company acquired American Re and in September 2006 our name changed to Munich Reinsurance America, Inc., a powerful statement of commitment to the U.S. market.

Today, Munich Re America is one of the leading reinsurers in the U.S., offering superior products and expert services focused on our clients and part of the preeminent brand in worldwide reinsurance.
