Dear reader,

I recently recorded a podcast, about RGA’s strategy, for our internal communications channel. One of the questions asked was, “What makes RGA different?” Something a manager told me many years ago came to mind. What makes RGA different is that we have heart. We must; otherwise achieving our purpose – making financial protection accessible to all – wouldn’t be possible.

That’s also one of the magnificent things about our long-term strategy. Within that strategy is heart, and how we incorporate that into our client relationships and product development. We listen to our clients, touch hearts, and open minds to come up with solutions that meet their needs.

Throughout this issue of RGActual, you will read about the different ways RGA has heart. Whether it’s through new product innovations we develop with and for clients, or how we, as a company, embrace and promote diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Also highlighted are our EMEA Technovate, Convention A, and Global Perspectives on Suicide webinars, demonstrating our commitment to overall wellness, including enhancing mental health awareness to reduce suicide worldwide. There are also several news items and updates about RGA’s dedication to wellbeing and how we can improve physical health … including the heart.

One of the best parts of RGActual is “How about you?” where we get to hear from you. Please be sure to take a few moments to fill that out. It’s our opportunity to learn and understand what is resonating so we can continue to remain focused and vigilant on making financial protection accessible to all.
