The Annual General Meeting of Hannover Re was held on 3 May 2011 at the HCC – Hannover Congress Centrum. Altogether around 800 shareholders, shareholder and bank representatives as well as guests accepted the invitation of the Executive Board and Supervisory Board. This means that a good 76% of the share capital was represented. In his address to the meeting Chief Executive Officer Ulrich Wallin took the opportunity to look back once more on the record 2010 financial year, in which the company again outperformed the previous year with net income after tax of EUR 748.9 million (EUR 733.7 million), in part due to positive non-recurring effects. In the votes that were taken the Annual General Meeting adopted by a large majority the resolutions proposed by the Executive Board and Supervisory Board. Among other things, the meeting elected Dr. Andrea Pollak to succeed Mr. Karl Heinz Midunsky on the company’s Supervisory Board for the remaining term of office.

The results of the voting and the attendance were published on the company’s website following the Annual General Meeting.
