Swiss Re AG said Thursday that it has closed a second private sidecar transaction with Dutch pension fund manager PGGM.

The Swiss reinsurer said the latest deal means PGGM made an overall investment of more than $500 million in Swiss Re's sidecar vehicle Viaduct Re Ltd., a special purpose insurer.

PGGM gained access to part of Swiss Re's core natural catastrophe property treaty reinsurance portfolio through Viaduct Re Ltd., Swiss Re said.
