Global Atlantic will use the fund for its investors. It will also use its own balance sheet to support life and annuity reinsurance deals.
Global Atlantic said Ivy II shareholders are set to benefit from its experience in the reinsurance sector, as well as its relations with clients, underwriting capabilities and others.
Furthermore, a KKR subsidiary will act as the investment manager for the assets of Ivy II’s reinsured liabilities.
This will enable investors to take advantage of KKR’s investment expertise and scale.
