INTRODUCTION PROMOTING CLIMATE RESILIENCE CLOSING THE PROTECTION GAP INDUCING POSITIVE SOCIETAL CHANGE GOVERNANCE APPENDIX 2.2 Climate Transition Underwriting At RenaissanceRe, we believe that by actively assuming risk through underwriting we can play an important role in promoting the liquidity and capital necessary to enable the orderly transition of industries, businesses and society towards a lower-carbon economy. In support of this, in 2023, we formalized our climate transition underwriting approach, which is focused on utilizing our climate expertise to help our clients develop risk taking capacity for climate risk mitigation. This should support our aim to identify and address sustainability risks and opportunities to promote sustainable development in line with the UNEP FI PSI.

By fostering partnerships, we believe we can create sustainable solutions to mitigate risks, minimize impacts and strengthen resilience to promote sustainable development for the most vulnerable communities. Jeff Manson, SVP, Head of Global Public-Private Partnerships, RenaissanceRe and Co-Chair of IDF Risk Modelling Steering Group Our Approach Fostering sustainability and resilience through partnership One of the ways that we fulfill our purpose is by providing risk insight and risk capital to successfully manage environmental and social risks and build resilience in vulnerable communities. To achieve this, we collaborate with governments, NGOs and the private sector. We believe that, by working together, we can develop sustainable risk mitigation solutions and promote long-term sustainability for communities around the world. We strive to build partnerships that create shared value for society and our business, while contributing to the UN Sustainable Development Goals. As such, we work with public sector partners to advance our aims of facilitating equitable risk insight, supporting innovative risk transfer solutions and promoting accessible risk capital to our partners, with the ultimate aim of building resilience and promoting sustainable development for all. 27
INTRODUCTION PROMOTING CLIMATE RESILIENCE CLOSING THE PROTECTION GAP INDUCING POSITIVE SOCIETAL CHANGE GOVERNANCE APPENDIX Our Partnerships We proactively seek partnerships to achieve our aim of building resilience and promoting sustainable development.

INTRODUCTION PROMOTING CLIMATE RESILIENCE CLOSING THE PROTECTION GAP INDUCING POSITIVE SOCIETAL CHANGE GOVERNANCE APPENDIX Insurance Development Forum We promote sustainability in the insurance industry through our active participation in the IDF. As a public-private partnership established in 2015, the IDF facilitates collaboration and coordination between the insurance industry, governments and international organizations to promote risk management practices, insurance coverage and financial protection against climate and disaster risks. As co-chair of the IDF’s Risk Modelling Steering Group (RMSG), we strive to enhance global understanding and quantification of natural hazards and disaster risk by leveraging risk analytics capabilities in the reinsurance sector. Through the RMSG, we advocate for open-source risk modeling platforms and data standards to promote widespread dissemination of risk insights that benefit vulnerable countries, agencies and all sectors, while increasing operational efficiencies in risk modeling. The RMSG aims to: • Improve access to open-source risk modeling platforms for vulnerable countries; • Improve data standards; and • Enhance local risk understanding for better decision-making in investment and risk management. We actively play a role in the Global Risk Modelling Alliance (GRMA), which is a collaborative effort between the IDF, V-20 climate-vulnerable countries and the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ). The GRMA aims to provide technical assistance and expertise on model development in climate-vulnerable countries, and is hosted by the InsuResilience Solutions Fund. Our position enables us to provide climate and disaster risk insights, work with officials and local experts, and offer open risk management tools, data, and operational risk finance expertise in regions that are lacking these resources. We support the newly established Global Shield against Climate Risk, which is a collaborative initiative between -20 climate-vulnerable countries, launched at COP27. The Global Shield will leverage the GRMA the G7 and the V in delivering its strategic objectives of providing capacity building and support to climate-vulnerable countries in assessing and managing climate-related risks. We are proud to be a founding member of the Oasis Loss Modelling Framework, sponsored by a collaborative ffort with other industry leaders, which aims to reduce operational costs, increase transparency, and promote e consumer choice, all while promoting equality of access to critical risk information. We also support the development of Open Exposure Data Standards (OED) which provides universal data formats for risk modeling. Improved risk analysis and understanding in the V-20 climate-vulnerable countries opens the door to resilient investment and can reduce the burden on governments by transferring risks to capital and insurance markets that have the capacity and expertise to better bear them.

The DRF promotes the sustainability of our global economy by enabling developing economies to build resilience against natural catastrophes. With over $445M of notional capacity, the DRF is designed to provide efficient risk capital to support the less developed world. In collaboration with others in the Lloyd’s market, we have developed hurricane and earthquake bond and parametric insurance coverage that offers insurance solutions to communities at risk.

INTRODUCTION PROMOTING CLIMATE RESILIENCE CLOSING THE PROTECTION GAP INDUCING POSITIVE SOCIETAL CHANGE GOVERNANCE APPENDIX 6.1 Carbon Footprint Methodology We use the World Resources Institute/World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WRI/WBCSD) Greenhouse Gas Protocol, Revised Edition (the “GHG Protocol”), along with “Compare Your Footprint,” to calculate our Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions estimates, using the most up-to-date emission factors available. For Scope 1 emission estimates, we utilized internal company logs of fixed asset use and invoices received from gas service providers for all company offices. For Scope 2 emission estimates, we utilized invoices received from electricity service providers for all company offices and data centers. For Scope 3 emissions estimates, we analyzed the total expenditure on business travel (2019–2022) and actual travel data (2022), which included road, rail and air transportation. We also applied a benchmark estimate for waste based on the WRAP Green Office: A Guide to Running a More Cost-Effective and Environmentally Sustainable Office, which assumed a waste output of 200kg per person per year as advised by Turley. From 1 July, 2022, we enhanced our carbon accounting processes by shifting from a spend-based approach for measuring the carbon footprint associated with business travel (air, road and rail), aiming to provide a more comprehensive understanding of our environmental impact. Note that as a Bermudan-headquartered company, certain global corporate air travel costs were allocated to our headquarters. The figures provided in this report represent our best estimates for calendar years 2019 to 2022 as of December 31, 2022. These estimates are based on the availability of data and existing methodologies. As the best practices, standards and frameworks in this area continue to evolve, and more accurate and complete data becomes available, these estimates may also evolve and/or change. We continue to refine our internal data collection processes to attempt to more accurately estimate our emissions, and as such, estimates across years may not be directly comparable as we update our internal data collection and collation procedures.
