Our capital structure consists not only of equity

Use of hybrids, securitisations etc. lowers cost of capital and levers RoE

• Equity capital is by far the most expensive form of capital. Therefore, we make optimal use of equity substitutes:
  • Conventional reinsurance/retrocession on an opportunistic basis (i. e. use of other reinsurers' capital)
  • Alternative capital market transactions
  • Hybrid capital

Competitive advantage through low cost of capital (WACC)

Senior bond not recognised as regulatory capital

Leverage ratios support HR's excellent ratings S&P's view on Hannover Re

Hannover Re: the somewhat different reinsurer

Source: Standard & Poor's rating report of Hannover Re as of 14 October 2020

1) Fixed charge coverage: EBITDA divided by sum of interest expenses and interest on operating lease (S&P definition)

2) Financial leverage: calculated as debt & hybrid capital, pension and operating lease commitments as of economic capital available (S&P definition)

Several levels of protection provide more NatCat capacity and thus create additional earnings at a defined risk appetite

As at March 2021

We pioneered in transferring risks into capital markets via securitisations Equity Substitutes

Transactions in m. USD if not otherwise stated

1) In m. EUR 2) Index-linked securitisation

• 3) Aggregate XL cover (P&C) 4) Credit-linked floating rate note
• 5) Index-linked swap
• In 1994 Hannover Re pioneered the first securitisation of natural catastrophe risks (Kover) followed by further transactions (K2-K6 & K-Cessions)
• In 1998 we started with the first-ever transfer of acquisition costs from L&H business to the capital market ( "L" deals, L1-L7)

An above-average rating has numerous benefits although we might not (yet) get paid for it

• We have a better showing of business than the average player
• Access to all lines of business
• We enjoy a highly diversified, high quality book of business

We are on virtually all broker lists, with cedents often demanding specific R/Is

We get very high allocations when we quote for business

• >90% vs. some 50% for a Bermuda start-up

We create lower capital charges for our cedents

• "AA" range S&P capital charge on reinsurance recoverables = 0.8% ("A" = 1.4%, BBB = 3.1%)
• As an above-average rated R/I, we "minimise" our cedents' cost of capital

Our cost of financing in the capital markets is lower

• Hybrid bonds trade at tighter spreads
• Better conditions for LoCs and credit lines

Capital adequacy ratio remains well above targets Increase in SCR driven by strong business growth in 2020

Eligible Own Funds Solvency Capital Requirements (SCR) Excess capital

1) Includes deduction for minority shareholdings of EUR 653 m.

2) Includes the use of the volatility adjustments

3) Minimum Target Ratio Limit 180%

• Development of the Solvency II ratio Increase in eligible own funds despite Covid-19 losses due to positive earnings incl. new business value
  • SCR grows at slightly higher rate, mainly due to business growth but also due to lower interest rate level and higher market volatilities

• Solvency II ratio above threshold throughout 2020 proves effectiveness of volatility management2)

Strong capital generation despite Covid-19 impacts Solvency II ratio declines but remains at high level

Solvency II movement analysis

Figures in m. EUR. SCR – Solvency Capital Requirements according to Solvency II internal model

1) Model changes (pre-tax) in terms of own funds relate to the calculation of technical provisions. A number of minor model changes, with each of them having a rather small impact, affect the SCR.

2) Operating earnings and assumption changes (pre-tax). The own funds increase includes the L&H new business value of EUR 778 m. The SCR increases due to strong business growth.

3) Changes due to movements in foreign exchange rates, in particular the depreciation of the US Dollar, lower interest rates, increased credit spreads and changes in other financial market indicators (pre-tax).

4) Incl. tax payments and changes in deferred taxes

5) Incl. dividend payments and changes in foreseeable dividends. The hybrid bond with call date in 2020 has been replaced.

High-quality capital base with 87% Tier 1 Unutilised Tier 2 provides additional flexibility

• Returns from alternative investments almost compensate for lower ordinary income from fixed-income securities (partially from inflationlinked bonds due to lower inflation)
• Realised gains include disposal of parts of listed-equity portfolio as well as some reallocations due to regular portfolio adjustments
• Stable depreciation of direct real estate investments; impairments of private equity and high yield funds as well as real estate funds slightly higher, but on very moderate level
• Decrease in valuation reserves due to significantly higher minimal-risk yield curves, credit spreads on corporates rather stable; higher valuations in alternative investments

Details on reserve review by Willis Towers Watson

• The scope of Willis Towers Watson's work was to review certain parts of the held loss and loss adjustment expense reserve, net of outwards reinsurance, from Hannover Rück SE's consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS as at each 31 December from 2009 to 2015, and the implicit redundancy margin, for the non-life business of Hannover Rück SE. Willis Towers Watson concludes that the reviewed loss and loss adjustment expense reserve, net of reinsurance, less the redundancy margin is reasonable in that it falls within Willis Towers Watson's range of reasonable estimates.
• Life reinsurance and health reinsurance business are excluded from the scope of this review.
• Willis Towers Watson's review of non-life reserves as at 31 December 2015 covered 98.2%/98.1% of the gross and net held non-life reserves of €22.8 billion and € 21.8 billion respectively. Together with life reserves of gross €3.7 billion and net €3.4 billion, the total balance sheet reserves amount to €26.6 billion gross and €25.2 billion net.
• The results shown in this presentation are based on a series of assumptions as to the future. It should be recognised that actual future claim experience is likely to deviate, perhaps materially, from Willis Towers Watson's estimates. This is because the ultimate liability for claims will be affected by future external events; for example, the likelihood of claimants bringing suit, the size of judicial awards, changes in standards of liability, and the attitudes of claimants towards the settlement of their claims.
• The results shown in Willis Towers Watson's reports are not intended to represent an opinion of market value and should not be interpreted in that manner. The reports do not purport to encompass all of the many factors that may bear upon a market value.
• Willis Towers Watson's analysis was carried out based on data as at evaluation dates for each 31 December from 2009 to 2015. Willis Towers Watson's analysis may not reflect development or information that became available after the valuation dates and Willis Towers Watson's results, opinions and conclusions presented herein may be rendered inaccurate by developments after the valuation dates.
• As is typical for reinsurance companies, the claims reporting can be delayed due to late notifications by some cedants. This increases the uncertainty in the estimates.
• Hannover Rück SE has asbestos, environmental and other health hazard (APH) exposures which are subject to greater uncertainty than other general liability exposures. Willis Towers Watson's analysis of the APH exposures assumes that the reporting and handling of APH claims is consistent with industry benchmarks. However, there is wide variation in estimates based on these benchmarks. Thus, although Hannover Rück SE's held reserves show some redundancy compared to the indications, the actual losses could prove to be significantly different to both the held and indicated amounts.
• Willis Towers Watson has not anticipated any extraordinary changes to the legal, social, inflationary or economic environment, or to the interpretation of policy language, that might affect the cost, frequency, or future reporting of claims. In addition, Willis Towers Watson's estimates make no provision for potential future claims arising from causes not substantially recognised in the historical data (such as new types of mass torts or latent injuries, terrorist acts), except in so far as claims of these types are included incidentally in the reported claims and are implicitly developed.
• In accordance with its scope Willis Towers Watson's estimates are on the basis that all of Hannover Rück SE's reinsurance protection will be valid and collectable. Further liability may exist for any reinsurance that proves to be irrecoverable.
• Willis Towers Watson's estimates are in Euros based on the exchange rates provided by Hannover Rück SE as at each 31 December evaluation date. However, a substantial proportion of the liabilities is denominated in foreign currencies. To the extent that the assets backing the reserves are not held in matching currencies, future changes in exchange rates may lead to significant exchange gains or losses.
• Willis Towers Watson has not attempted to determine the quality of Hannover Rück SE's current asset portfolio, nor has Willis Towers Watson reviewed the adequacy of the balance sheet provisions except as otherwise disclosed herein.
• In its review,Willis Towers Watson has relied on audited and unaudited data and financial information supplied by Hannover Rück SE and its subsidiaries, including information provided orally. Willis Towers Watson relied on the accuracy and completeness of this information without independent verification.
• Except for any agreed responsibilities Willis Towers Watson may have to Hannover Rück SE, Willis Towers Watson does not assume any responsibility and will not accept any liability to any person for any damages suffered by such person arising out of this commentary or references to Willis Towers Watson in this document.
