Assicurazioni Generali SpA (G.MI) raised its dividend after 2018
net profit rose, supported by improving performances across the
company's business segments.
Net profit for the year was 2.31 billion euros ($2.61 billion)
compared with EUR2.11 billion the previous year, the Italian
insurer said Thursday.
The company raised its dividend by 5.9% to EUR0.90 a share.
"Assicurazioni Generali has completed the 2015-18 strategic
plan, exceeding all the targets and successfully concluding its
industrial turnaround," Chief Executive Philippe Donnet said.
Generali's property and casualty operations, as well as its life
segments, reported growing operating results. The asset-management
operations posted a 24% increase in net result.
In November, the insurance giant presented its new business plan
through 2021, aimed at improving earnings and expanding in selected
markets, fueled in part by acquisitions.
