Asia Pacific Operations
The Asia Pacific operations include business generated by the Company’s offices throughout Asia and Australia. The Traditional segment’s principal types of reinsurance include individual and group life and health, critical illness, disability and superannuation. Reinsurance agreements may be facultative or automatic agreements covering primarily individual risks, and in some markets, group risks. Superannuation is the Australian government mandated compulsory retirement savings program. Superannuation funds accumulate retirement funds for employees, and, in addition, typically offer life and disability insurance coverage. The Financial Solutions segment includes financial reinsurance, asset-intensive and certain disability and life blocks.

The increase in adjusted operating income before income taxes in 2025 was primarily the result of continuous growth in traditional reinsurance business and increase in future policy benefits remeasurement gains due to favorable underwriting experience and a future policy benefits remeasurement loss in the amount of $109 million recognized in 2024 as result of the Company’s annual assumptions review.
The increase in net premiums was primarily due to continued business growth in the segment.
The segment added new life business production, measured by face amount of reinsurance in force, of $63.0 billion and $60.7 billion during 2025 and 2024, respectively.
The increase in net investment income was due to an increase in investment yield and an increase in invested assets.
The decrease in the loss ratio for 2025 was primarily due to favorable underwriting experience.
During 2025 and 2024, the Company updated its actuarial assumptions which resulted in a net favorable assumption update totaling $1 million in 2025, primarily due to updated mortality assumptions. The 2024 annual assumptions update resulted in a loss of $109 million primarily due to updated lapse assumptions in India and an increase in the Company’s per life retention limit. See Note 5 – “Future Policy Benefits” for more information.

The increase in adjusted operating income before income taxes in 2025 was due to new business growth and an increase in investment income, primarily from new asset-intensive transactions.
The invested asset base supporting asset-intensive transactions increased to $29.4 billion as of December 31, 2025, from $22.2 billion as of December 31, 2024, primarily due to approximately $3.0 billion in additional assets from recently executed transactions and net organic growth of $4.2 billion from existing in force blocks. The amount of reinsurance assumed from client companies, as measured by pre-tax statutory surplus, risk based capital and other financial reinsurance structures was $2.4 billion and $2.1 billion for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Fees earned from this business can vary significantly depending on the size, complexity and timing of the transactions and, therefore, can fluctuate from period to period.
The increase in net investment was due to an increase in yields and invested assets.
The decrease in other revenues was primarily due to lower surrender charges and lapses compared to the prior period.
The increase in total adjusted benefits and expenses was due to the growth of asset-intensive business partially offset by future policy benefits remeasurement gains in the current year compared to future policy benefits remeasurement losses in the prior year.
