Sustainability
Sustainable management
Profit and value creation are indispensable prerequisites for sustainable development in the interests of our clients, shareholders, staff and business partners. Hannover Re consequently strives to be one of the three most profitable reinsurers in the world. Our operations are thus guided primarily by profitability considerations and we concentrate on attractive segments of reinsurance business.
Responsible underwriting and careful risk management are essential for safeguarding Hannover Re's business quality in the long term and for maintaining and increasing the company value. In the past the Hannover Re share often represented one of the stocks with the highest dividend yield in the reinsurance industry.
Hannover Re minimises business, liability and reputational risks that could have a detrimental effect on its commercial activities by defining company-wide guidelines, such as the Code of Conduct. They help our staff to successfully master the often complex ethical and legal challenges encountered as part of their day-to-day work.
Successful, responsible and above all sustainable business management forms the basis for playing a positive role in society. It also establishes the foundation that enables our company to continuously foster and advance its staff and support projects that are in the public interest.
