CX Reinsurance Company Limited
(partly owned)
On 31 October 2002, Tawa acquired CX RE, formerly called CNA Reinsurance Company Limited, from Continental Casualty Company. From 1977 CX RE underwrote a complex portfolio of US and international insurance risks but ceased underwriting in August 2001. When purchased, CX RE was the largest solvent company run-off in the London market. Since 2002, we have reduced the gross undiscounted liabilities of CX RE by over 75%; one of the most rapid reductions ever seen in the London market. On 21 March 2006, we sold most of our shares in CX RE, retaining 12.65% of the non-voting shares and 49.95% of the voting shares. Tawa Management manages the run-off under a contract running to 2010.
