Foundation Re Ltd., a special purpose Cayman Islands class B insurer issued the Class D notes from the $750 million catastrophe bond program and invested the proceeds in high-quality assets within a Regulation 114 trust account, and will swap the total return of that asset portfolio with Delta Reinsurance Ltd.
