Munich Re deals with all aspects of claims on the spot The insurance groups VICTORIA/D.A.S. and Hamburg- Mannheimer/DKV announce that they will merge under the name of ERGO Versicherungsgruppe AG. ERGO, which belongs to Munich Re, is now represented in more than 30 countries Munich Re pools its international health insurance and reinsurance expertise in a new business segment: Munich Health. With the introduction of the new brand, Munich Re redefines its position in the reinsurance markets With overall losses amounting to some US$ 380bn, 2011 becomes the costliest natural catastrophe year to date. After the terrible earthquake in Japan on 11 March 2011, Munich Re invites internationally recognised experts to assess the event. 25 May

11 Blockchain Complete new digital way to make reinsurance business New challenges for IT Compliance: Cross Border Data Transfer Internal Control System Transparency Deleting Unnecessary Data.. 25 May

12 Blockchain + Programming language = Smart contracts { if HAS_EVENT_X_HAPPENED() is true: send(party_a, 1000); } Contracts will be written as software in source code, digitally signed, executed by the network using a cryptocurrency. Programmability: blockchain stores not only currency transactions but software programs, so called smart contracts, that control assets and money, they follow the encoded rules and enforce them, based on trusted data feeds and digital signatures. "Crop insurance. One can easily make a financial derivatives contract (...) using a data feed of the weather (...). If a farmer in Iowa purchases a derivative that pays out inversely based on the precipitation in Iowa, then if there is a drought, the farmer will automatically receive money and if there is enough rain the farmer will be happy because their crops would do well. This can be expanded to natural disaster insurance generally. Source: Ethereum Whitepaper: 25 May
