NU Online News Service, Nov. 27, 12:43 p.m. – ING Re Group Life, Accident & Health Reinsurance, Minneapolis, says it wants to play a "continuing role as a lead reinsurer" in the group life, disability, accident and health reinsurance businesses.
ING Re reported weak third-quarter results last week, and it announced that, as a result of the Sept. 11 attacks, it would stop reinsuring group personal accident programs and workers' compensation programs against catastrophic losses.
But the company as a whole remains strong, Theresa Wurst, president of the ING Re Group Life unit, writes in a recent memo sent to ING Re clients and brokers.
