Munich Re closed the 2015 financial year with a net profit of 3.1 billion EUR (3.4 billion USD). The German reinsurer thus reached its target, even if its income was slightly down by 3% compared to 2014.
Premiums income reached 50.4 billion EUR (55.1 billion USD), an increase of 3%. For its part, the operating income increased by 20%, reaching 4.8 billion EUR (5.2 billion USD).
Despite the fragile economic environment of 2015 marked by persistently low interest rates, the leaders of the German group consider these results as encouraging.
From a remuneration of 7.75 EUR (9.42 USD) in 2014, the dividend paid to shareholders will increase to 8.25 EUR (9.01 USD) per share, that is an increase of 6.45%.
