Munich Re expects to report a profit of £180m for Q3, down from £780m in the same period last year.
In the third quarter, Munich Re registered COVID-19-related losses totalling about £722m in reinsurance. The losses were attributable to various business lines, such as insurance for major events and other property-casualty lines, and the life and health business.
Losses from severe hurricanes and wildfires in the US, as well as those from the Beirut port explosion, have also generated above-average losses for a single quarter.
Munich Re will publish detailed information on its quarterly figures on 5th November 2020.
