Dividend

The aim of Generali Deutschland's dividend policy is to have its shareholders constantly participate in the business success of the company. In the years before the financial crisis, the shareholders of Generali Deutschland benefited from the successful business development through continuously rising dividends. In the year 2008, it was possible to keep the dividend at a constant level thanks to the good financial strength of the Group.

For the business year 2009, it was resolved at the General Meeting of May 27, 2010 to pay a dividend of € 2.90 per unit share again. This was based on the persistently good financial strength of the Group and on a substantial increase in Group earnings to € 341 m.
