RGA opened the RGA Global Reinsurance Company Limited, Labuan Branch (RGA Labuan) in 2008 and a Kuala Lumpur co-located office in 2014 to support clients in Malaysia. 

The co-located Labuan Branch provides access to RGA's extensive global underwriting and actuarial expertise, product development and consulting services, and traditional life and health reinsurance / family retakaful and financially motivated reinsurance products.

RGA also owns 30% of Malaysian Life Reinsurance Group Berhad (MLRe). MLRe was the first life reinsurer in Malaysia, established in 1997. It was founded as a joint venture partnership between RGA and the Life Insurance Association of Malaysia (LIAM). By 2007, MLRe is one of the largest life reinsurers in Malaysia and today conducts business with all Malaysian life insurance companies.
