What We Do

At Berkshire Hathaway Life we specialize in large transactions and offer unparalleled retrocession capacity. We have the financial strength to accept exceptionally large and long-term liabilities and the corporate structure to execute transactions quickly.

We work with clients around the globe, specializing in risks associated with life and health. We help insurance and reinsurance companies, banks and pension schemes reduce their exposure to a wide range of risks, each with a custom-made solution.

With the security, financial strength and unequaled risk evaluation attributes of the Berkshire Hathaway Reinsurance Group, we are able to take on unique risks that are eschewed by the traditional market. Our distinctive business model enables us to make decisions quickly.

We work with our clients to deliver custom-design solutions that meet their individual needs. We don’t design products or cookie-cutter solutions. No two transactions are the same.

“We intend to continue our practice of working only with people whom we like and admire. This policy not only maximizes our chances for good results, it also ensures us an extraordinarily good time.”
~Warren Buffett
