EUREKO has announced the suppression of 2500 jobs by 2010

The financial crisis has not spared the leading Dutch insurer EUREKO who announced the suppression of 2500 jobs up to 2010, that is, 10% of its labour force.
This restructuring plan comes within the framework of cost-reducing measures designed to yield annual savings of 300 million EUR (423 million USD).
As a reminder, the group reported 2.1 billion EUR (2.9 billion USD) in losses in 2008. Life insurance went down by 12% at 4.54 billion EUR (6.4 billion USD) and non-life insurance's technical results have shrunk by 32% at 172 million USD (242 million USD).
