VPN Insures Global Organization's Success

Overview The Reinsurance Group of America (RGA) provides underwriting and reinsurance services to clients worldwide from its base in St. Louis. The 250 staff members at headquarters need to communicate with RGA subsidiaries and international offices in Canada, Latin America and Asia Pacific. Managing these communications was complex and expensive for RGA, until the company installed a Virtual Private Network (VPN). A VPN has enabled RGA to reduce communication costs, streamline back office operations, and improve service to partners and clients.
