Chubb chairman and CEO Evan Greenberg said: “Our exceptional underwriting performance was driven by strong P&C premium revenue growth, excellent current accident year underwriting margins with a record combined ratio of 83.3%, favourable prior period reserve development, and a moderate level of catastrophe losses.
“As I look ahead, we remain confident in our ability to continue the pattern of growth in revenue and earnings, and, in turn, drive double-digit EPS growth.”
