Exceptional returns

With a range of tools to optimize & consolidate closed books, exceptional returns paired with prudent risk-management can be achieved.

Company Acquisition

During a Company Acquisition, Montagne takes over the entire life insurance entity including the insurance portfolio, customer interaction, legal entity, staff, systems, current processes, contracts and liabilities & assets. This allows the selling party to focus on their core business and free up capital.

Composite Reinsurance

Montagne offers a range of risk transfer options. A life or non-life reinsurance allows the seller to keep their customer interaction whilst offloading particular risks of reinsured portfolio.

Portfolio Transfer

In a Portfolio Transfer, Montagne offers to take over the customer interaction as well as the assets and liabilities of the closed books and merge them with existing systems and staff to create synergies. This approach is focused on specific portfolios within the life insurance company that the insurance company may wish to sell and typically leads to faster transitions freeing up capital for the seller in a timely fashion

We help sellers to free up capital from legacy books to support their growth agenda. At the same time, we generate value by efficiently consolidating closed books. Value generation for each book is highly individualized, but general levers are:

01
