Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated (NYSE: RGA), a
leading global life and health reinsurer, announced today that Ruby
Reinsurance Company (Ruby Re), a Missouri-domiciled third-party
life reinsurance company, has successfully closed a second round of

round includes capital commitments from AllianceBernstein L.P. (AB)
