Collaboration, Empowerment and Innovation
Hallmarks of our business and a reason for our success.
Integrated System
We work together to solve some of the world’s most complicated problems. Our work environment is challenging, but it is also welcoming. You are surrounded by some of the brightest people in the industry and there is a strong culture of respect for the contributions that each person makes to the company.
Our integrated system encourages debate and collaboration so that, together, we can reach the best decisions. We ask each other for input and listen to everyone’s ideas, but we also take ownership of our work and accountability for our decisions.
We are passionate about giving back to the communities where we live and work and regularly come together as a team in support of local charitable efforts.

Inclusive culture, teams and communities.
At RenaissanceRe we challenge ourselves to foster an environment where each person feels like they belong and is empowered to contribute to our success. By collaborating together and embracing diverse perspectives, we believe we are better able to fulfill our purpose to protect communities and enable prosperity.
We focus our efforts in three key areas:
Supporting and developing talent.
Empowering diverse, inclusive, and high performing teams.
Building stronger communities.
Sustainability
Making communities more resilient.
From the beginning, we have applied our risk acumen to solve some of the most critical challenges facing society and are determined to shape a positive environment for our people and communities. We are committed to three key goals to deliver on this aim – promoting climate resilience, closing the protection gap and inducing positive social change.
Promoting Climate Resilience
We share our skills and expertise to help the world better manage climate risk. Operationally, we’ve partnered with Climate Impact Partners to provide carbon finance to support innovative projects that reduce global emissions and increase community resilience: rainforest protection in Sierra Leone, reforestation in Kenya and afforestation in Chile.
Closing the Protection Gap
We have a long track record of leadership in applying our risk expertise to increase the economic resiliency of vulnerable communities. Through thought leadership events and industry forums such as the Insurance Development Forum and Sustainable Markets Initiative, we provide sustainable risk mitigation solutions to support those most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change.
Inducing Positive Societal Change
We believe it is important to shape a positive environment for our people and communities. One way that we do this is through corporate social responsibility. Over 75% of our annual giving is employee-led, and we support colleagues in giving to causes that they care about and offer volunteer days as well as a generous employee matching program.
