Mr. Chandra said: "It has been a highlight of my career to lead this successful strategic, financial and digital turnaround and transformation of Prosperity culminating in the recently completed acquisition of the Company by funds managed by Elliott Management Corporation ("Elliott"). The Company is well positioned to continue, under Elliott's direction, to build a business that serves policyholders well and creates value for shareholders. I am delighted to be able to pass the leadership baton to Nicholas von Moltke, a talented and experienced leader and manager with a demonstrated track record of success as a key leader during his time at Global Atlantic Financial Group. I look forward to supporting Nick to ensure a smooth leadership transition".

Mark Cicirelli, Chairman of Prosperity and a Portfolio Manager at Elliott, said, "On behalf of the Board and investor group, I want to thank Anurag for his leadership over the past five years in transforming Prosperity and positioning it for long-term growth and financial strength. We have the utmost confidence in Nick's ability to lead the business and build on Prosperity's strong foundation."

Nick von Moltke added: "I am honored and excited by the opportunity to help lead the next phase of Prosperity's development, with Elliott's strong capital support. I have long admired Elliott's record in building high-quality, successful insurance businesses. I look forward to working with the Prosperity Board of Directors and management team to establish Prosperity as a leading participant in the life and annuity industry."

As a Managing Director of Goldman Sachs Reinsurance Group (the predecessor of Global Atlantic) from 2004-13, Mr. von Moltke was a senior executive that began with one small acquisition and grew the business to $15bn in assets and 150 employees before spinning Global Atlantic out of Goldman Sachs as an independent company.
