Reinsurance giant Swiss Re has acquired Champlain Reinsurance Company (Champlain Re), a Swiss based run-off reinsurance captive of Alcan Holdings Switzerland AG, a member of Rio Tinto Alcan, in a legacy transaction.
Champlain Re’s remaining reinsurance liabilities consist mainly of General Liability and Workers’ Compensation exposures of the Rio Tinto Alcan Group.
The risks held by the captive emanate from Continental Europe, the US and Canada.
