Strategic priorities and market positioning

  • Focus on long-term stability, disciplined cycle management, and technical excellence in underwriting and claims, with an emphasis on franchise growth and margin improvement.

  • Portfolio repositioned to reduce volatile U.S. casualty exposure, increase decorrelation, and strengthen core business units, with ongoing investments in data, technology, and AI readiness.

  • Clear priorities for 2025 and 2026: meet net income targets, increase group resilience, and maintain flexibility to strengthen reserves if performance allows.

  • M&A strategy centers on bolt-on acquisitions to strengthen the core, with readiness for integration and a focus on decorrelated specialty lines.

  • Market outlook remains constructive, with growth opportunities in select areas and a cautious approach to rate declines and market cycles.

Financial targets, capital management, and cost discipline

  • 2026 net income target of USD 4.5 billion, with L&H Re targeting USD 1.7 billion, and a through-the-cycle ROE target above 14%.

  • Sustainable annual share buyback program of USD 500 million to start in 2026, subject to achieving 2025 net income targets and board approval, complementing a dividend policy of at least 7% annual growth.

  • USD 300 million net cost reduction targeted by 2027, with USD 100 million achieved in 2025, driven by simplification, AI investments, and legacy system reductions.

  • Strong solvency position (268% SST), with capital management focused on maintaining a 200–250% range and deploying excess capital through dividends, buybacks, or business growth.

  • Prudent leverage management and capital repatriation support financial flexibility, with buybacks subordinated to dividends and business opportunities.

Business unit performance and portfolio actions

  • Corporate Solutions delivers stable earnings with a combined ratio averaging 90.6% since 2021, supported by external reinsurance and prudent reserving.

  • P&C Re portfolio quality improved, with significant reduction in U.S. casualty exposure and strong reserve levels, including a 10% annual increase in initial loss picks.

  • Life & Health Re fully reviewed, with assumption updates and portfolio actions completed, especially in Australia, Israel, and South Korea; 2026 target increased to USD 1.7 billion.

  • Business actions in unsustainable markets include pausing new business and placing treaties in runoff to ensure long-term profitability.

  • Growth in Life & Health expected globally, with opportunities in mortality outside the U.S., longevity, and financial solutions, while maintaining a focus on in-force book management.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
