MUNICH (dpa-AFX) - German insurer Allianz (AZSEY.PK) reported an operating profit of 2.5 billion euros in the third quarter 2012 due to a better-than-expected performance across all segments, especially in asset management. Net income for the third-quarter was 1.4 billion euros.
The company expects the 2012 full year operating profit to exceed 9 billion euros, assuming a normal business development during the remainder of the year.
The company said that net income growth will be comparatively lower because of further balance sheet strengthening including investment de-risking and restructuring activities, as already seen in the first nine months of 2012.
The company said that it will publish full results for the third quarter on November 9.
