Communications that address any of the following shall be transmitted by the General Counsel promptly to the Audit Committee: 1) fraud or other intentional violations of the federal securities laws or regulations; 2) material issues with respect to the accuracy of our financial statements or records; 3) misconduct of senior management or financial management; or 4) weaknesses in our internal accounting or disclosure controls. All other communications to the Audit Committee shall be transmitted to the Audit Committee no later than its next scheduled meeting.

Success in the financial services industry is dependent upon a company's reputation for integrity. RGA created the following website to provide associates with the information and resources they may need to report conduct, activities or behaviors that the associate may believe are inconsistent with applicable laws and regulations, RGA's Principles of Ethical Business Conduct or any of RGA's policies and procedures.

RGA is committed to fostering a company culture that is inclusive, collaborative, and socially responsible. We are strengthened by our diverse workforce and recognize that our employees are our greatest asset.

RGA has long been committed to ensuring equal pay for equal work. To continue that commitment, in 2022, we completed our fifth annual company-wide pay equity study conducted by a third-party consultant, which analyzed the pay of all U.S. employees and all our employees working at non-U.S. locations with more than 50 employees (representing ~90% of RGA’s employees worldwide). 

The study analyzed the average pay of females to males in comparable roles. The results concluded that women at RGA are paid 99.7% of what men are paid, when comparing pay levels for similar roles. In addition, in the U.S., when using the same comparisons, the average non-Caucasian to Caucasian pay ratio was 100.3%.

We are committed to gender pay equity. Where the study shows a statistically significant pay gap at the individual level, further analysis is done and, where appropriate, pay adjustments will be made. We will continue to review pay equity annually and will continue to address any issues that arise.

Shareholders and employees should view these percentages as positive and aligned with RGA’s commitment to diversity and inclusion. Ensuring our compensation practices are equitable, regardless of gender or race, is imperative for our company’s culture and to ensure fair treatment of our employees.
