With a profit after tax of DKK 362 million and a combined ratio of 91.5, Tryg reported a solid second quarter result. Thereby, Tryg took another step towards achieving the medium-term target of a return on equity of 20%, corresponding to a combined ratio of 90.

Second quarter of 2011

  • Profit before tax of DKK 487 million against DKK 173 million in the second quarter of 2010. Technical result before tax of DKK 496 million against DKK 394 million in the second quarter of 2010.
  • Premium growth of 3.5% in local currency affected by premium increases and organic growth in Sweden and Finland. Total gross earned premiums were DKK 5,145 million.
  • Combined ratio of 91.5 against 92.5 in the second quarter of 2010, affected by premium increases, claims initiatives and higher costs for weather damage claims.
  • Gross investment return of DKK 456 million, corresponding to a yield of 1.2% (4.8% p.a.).
  • New organisation implemented in May 2011 with a view to strengthening the focus on profitability.

 

First half of 2011

  • Combined ratio of 93.7 against 100.4 in the first half of 2010. The improvement was primarily due to the extraordinarily hard winter in the first quarter of 2010, premium increases and the emerging effect of a number of claims costs and cost reduction initiatives.
