The highest premium increases came from the liability, accident and motor insurance business and the other lines of insurance. In the liability, accident and motor insurance lines, the second-largest segment of Deutsche Rück’s portfolio, gross premiums rose by 23.9% to €485.8 million. Gross premium income in property insurance, which accounts for more than two-thirds of Deutsche Rück Group’s gross premiums, also grew strongly by 16.5% to €1.4 billion.
In life business, the Deutsche Rück Group recorded a 9.7% increase in gross premiums to €84.2 million. In the 2024 financial year, the Deutsche Rück Group expanded its life and health reinsurance business to the markets of the Middle East and North Africa.
“We grew strongly and profitably in all business areas in 2024,” says Frank Schaar, Chief Executive Officer of the Deutsche Rück Group. “Our strategy of gradually and purposefully internationalising our business over the recent years is paying off.”
The Group generated investment income of €74.8 million and achieved a net profit after taxes of €14.5 million (previous year: €12.0 million).
