There are good opportunities for Arundo Re despite trade war uncertainty: Deputy CEO, Montador

Although the ongoing tariff war and resulting inevitable higher inflation will undoubtedly impact all lines of insurance and reinsurance business, French reinsurer Arundo Re’s very strong balance sheet will create opportunities for growth, according to the company’s Deputy Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Laurent Montador.

Formerly known as CCR Re, the Arundo Re brand launched in January 2025 and followed the acquisition of a majority shareholding in the reinsurer by a consortium comprised of SMABTP and MACSF.

“While CCR is still a shareholder with a 25% holding, they will leave us either this year or next, so it was absolutely normal to change the name,” Montador told Reinsurance News. “The rebranding is really to focus on our DNA with values such as humanity, solidity, clarity, and vitality. The market has reacted very, very well to this new rebranding.”
