Hannover Re Share

It is part of our company philosophy to present our share as a solid and attractive investment and to continuously increase its value for our shareholders on a sustainable basis. Hence it is our target to keep the costs for raising equity as low as possible.

The continuous increase of earnings per share, supported by our investor-relations activities, is intended to ensure a share-price development outperforming the RBS Global Reinsurance Index over a 3-year period.

The fulfillment of this demand is one of two definitive success criteria within our stock option plan and thus the performance-related remuneration of our executive board and senior management worldwide.
