European insurer Allianz has announced its three-year financial targets through 2027 after exceeding its key goals for 2024.
Allianz has set four new ambitious group financial targets for the 2024–27 period: an earnings per share compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7–9%; return on equity of at least 17%; solvency II operating capital generation of 24–25 percentage points in 2027; and cumulative net cash remittance of more than €27bn from 2025 to 2027.
The insurer announced these ambitious financial targets at its Capital Markets Day 2024.
It sees operating profit growing from the expected €15.5bn this year to €18.5bn in 2027, reported Reuters.
Allianz plans to expand its customer base by offering advanced protection and retirement solutions while enhancing service delivery.
The company emphasised that its strategy focuses on three key priorities: driving growth by acquiring new customers and boosting retention; enhancing productivity through efficiency initiatives and generative AI; and strengthening resilience with an optimised capital management framework.
