  • Premiums are up 4.6%, supported by the Non-Life tariff updates and by the positive performance of the Life business. In Non-Life lines, there is noteworthy performance in the Accident & Health line (+6.4%) and a significant improvement in Auto (+4.4%). The General P&C business is up less (+1.1%) due to the slowdown of the Agro business in Brazil and the depreciation of the real. In Life Savings, premiums are up 8.2%, supported by the business in IBERIA and OTHER LATAM. Life Protection is up 6.8% with notable growth in Mexico and Spain. By market, IBERIA, LATAM and reinsurance continue performing positively. At constant exchange rates, premiums are up 6.1%, with Non-Life and Life up 5.7% and 7.3% respectively.
  • The net result, whichstands at €654 million, is up 39%, based on the following developments:
    1. The relevant improvement in Non-Life technical profitability from both underwriting measures and tariff adjustments.
    2. The relevant contribution of the Non-Life financial result, which reached €576 million (€567 million the previous year), before the goodwill writedowns, supported by portfolio yields.
    3. The large contribution of the Life business, both Savings and Protection, especially in LATAM and IBERIA. The Life Protection combined ratio continues at an excellent level (85.4%), slightly up due to an increase in acquisition expenses in the business in Brazil.

    1. Following prudent criteria, at September,the Group recorded a €90 million provisional impact for the goodwill writedown in Verti Germany, based on the
      current context of the Auto market in this country. This estimate will be updated at year-end according to interest rates and business plans. In 2023, a €75 million goodwill writedown in the United States was recorded.
    2. The recognition of extraordinary income (€35 million), from various tax
      adjustments, most of which resulting from the declaration of partial unconstitutionality of Royal Decree-Law 3/2016. In 2023, €46.5 million in extraordinary income was recorded from the arbitration of the end of the Bankia alliance.
  • The Non-Life combined ratio improves 2 p.p. to 94.8% supported by tariff adjustments
    and a more benign weather and catastrophic context than 2023, which had a more than €100 million impact from the earthquake in Turkey. General P&C reaches an excellent 81.1%, (-6.0 p.p.), with exceptional improvements in IBERIA, BRAZIL and NORTH AMERICA. The Auto combined ratio improves 1.7 p.p. to 104.2%, with strong reductions in NORTH AMERICA, BRAZIL and OTHER LATAM, while the recovery process in IBERIA is more gradual, with a relevant improvement in the quarter. The Auto combined ratio is currently below 100% in many markets. The Accident & Health combined ratio stands at 99.8%.
  • Shareholders' equity is up 4.5%, reaching over €8.4 billion,from the result contribution. The €194 million improvement in net unrealized gains and losses on the investment portfolio offset the negative currency conversion differences which stand at €193 million.
  • Net realized gains have had a€35.1 million impact on results (€22.3 million in 2023).
