Changes on Munich Re’s Board of Management

Joachim Wenning: New Board member in charge of the Life Division.

In November 2008, the Supervisory Board appoints Joachim Wenning, formerly CEO of New Re in Geneva, to the Munich Re Board of Management, where he assumes responsibility for the Life Division on 1 January 2009. Wolfgang Strassl – whose responsibilities thus far included life reinsurance – focuses his full attention on the Human Resources Division, his broadened responsibilities as Board member in charge of personnel and welfare matters, and the expansion of the rapidly growing International Health field of business.
