The group's operating income is up despite very unfavourable weather related losses, even greater than in the first half of 2016. The group's mutual insurance dynamic and the power of its fundamentals contribute considerably to these strong results.

We are reaping the rewards of our structural efforts, reflected in much higher solvency ratios and the upgrade of our rating into the 'A' category. This first half year also recorded significant financial capital gains, a result of dynamic management of our asset portfolios.
