Italian investment firm EXOR S.p.A said Tuesday that it has offered to buy PartnerRe in an all-cash deal that values the Bermuda-based reinsurer at $6.4 billion.

“Compared to the all-share combination with AXIS, it provides PartnerRe shareholders with superior value and greater certainty since it is all cash, fully financed, and does not require a capital increase by EXOR nor a vote by its shareholders,” EXOR said in a statement.
