£10 won't be long off.
That is a big sell. Does that reduce the chances of a special divi? You would have thought SSA would know if one was forthcoming and not sold up.
It is additional reinsurance to protect Beazley in the event of a very large (catastrophic) cyber event e.g. a successful cyber attack on a cloud services provider carried out by a rogue state.
Cat bonds are common in property reinsurance but this is one of the first for cyber reinsurance.
Currently, Beazley and other cyber insurers will often apply a sub-limit on cyber policies for catastrophic losses such as these. Potentially, this may allow Beazley to provide more coverage or transfer the risk.
It's just a further demonstration of Beazleys expertise and capabilities in cyber insurance which is the fastest growing class of insurance, and the biggest class that Beazley writes in terms of GWP.
Great update. I think this is a superb share. Huge growth potential, great brand and as a strategic partner of Coca Cola, it's very secure.
I would like to see an interim.divi introduced at some point in the future to supplement the main divi.
I'm expecting plenty of M&A activity in the general insurance market over the next year or so. It sounds as though the likes of Allianz, AXA, Intact (who own RSA) and Danish Insurer Tryg have money to spend.
I just can't see one of those buying the whole of Aviva when Aviva is more weighted towards life insurance and wealth which they don't have much / any experience in.
IMO this is undervalued regardless of takeover speculation. Happy to hold, take the divi and see what happens. A fall in inflation next year and potentially interest rates should increase sentiment.
Excellent set of results and nice to see the share price rising accordingly.
The business is putting everything in place to become a global leader in this space. Very happy to be invested here, I won't be selling anytime soon.
I'm surprised they didn't snap up NIG from Direct Line instead of it going to RSA. As far as acquisitions go, it would have been fairly easy to integrate given the geographical and product overlap with Aviva's existing commercial brokered general insurance book.
4th trance of the share buyback to start with immediate effect. Hopefully that can be a catalyst for some growth in the SP.
Not sure about the sale of NIG to RSA. Yes it plugs a gap short term and raises capital but it could have been a big growth area with some work and it provided some diversification from basic personal lines household and private car policies.
