Zurich Reports $3.5B H1 2026 Net Income as Beazley Deal Advances
Zurich Insurance Group posted $3.5 billion net income in H1 2026, with business operating profit of $4.8 billion, up 13% year on year. Results benefited from strong P&C and Life performance and a 35% higher net investment result. EMEA profit rose on reserve and investment gains, partly offset by catastrophe losses. The group’s Swiss Solvency Test ratio was 266%. Beazley’s shareholder approval for a GBP 8.1 billion deal moves the acquisition closer to completion.
