Revenue September 2021

The Group’s consolidated revenue in the first nine months of 2021 reached 19.8 billion euros, with an increase of 3.8 percent, mainly due to the issuing of a multi-year policy in Mexico in June for the amount of 563 million dollars (473 million euros), the favorable development of reinsurance business which grew 14.5 percent, as well as the positive commercial performance of Unit-Linked Life products and some relevant group policies in Spain. At constant exchange rates, revenue would have grown 6.8 percent.

Premiums September 2021

Premiums from direct insurance and accepted reinsurance reached over 16.6 billion euros, with a 7 percent increase, primarily due to the previously mentioned policy in Mexico which provides a larger premium volume and compensates the reduction caused by the fall in exchange rates to the same degree. At constant exchange rates, premiums would have grown 10.3 percent.

Non-Life premiums grew 6.8 percent, primarily from improved issuing in the General P&C and Health lines, which at September went up 19.7 percent and 5.7 percent, respectively, thanks to the positive performance of General P&C in Brazil, Spain, Mexico and Colombia, and of Health and Accident in Spain and Mexico. On the other hand, lower issuing in the Auto line (-4.8 percent) comes primarily from the United States, Italy and Turkey.

By Non-Life business type, General P&C is the most important line, with over 5.1 billion euros in premiums. Auto holds second place, with over 4.0 billion euros. Health and Accident is in third place with over 1.3 billion euros.

Life insurance premiums grew 7.4 percent thanks to improved Life-Savings business, which was supported by higher sales of Unit-Linked products, as well as some relevant group policies in Spain.
