SCOR, ahead of its targets

SCOR has presented an intermediate report ahead of its strategic plan "Optimal Dynamics" (2013-2016) targets.

The scheme, focused on growth, solvency and profitability, shows, at the end of the first half of 2014, results higher than forecasts with:

• a return on equity (ROE) exceeding the target of 1000 basis points above risk-free rate at three months
• a solvency ratio at 231% for 2014
• a dividend distribution rate at 44% in 2013.

For Denis Kessler, CEO of the group, SCOR "demonstrates [with those results] its adaptability to a difficult economic, regulatory and financial environment and carries on with the strenghtening of its position of world's top reinsurer.
