Net profit was affected by 655 million euros in net impairments due to the current financial markets performance as result of the global Covid-19 pandemic. Consolidated operating result, however, grew 7.6 percent to 1.45 billion euros from 1.35 billion euros last year, thanks to the contribution from the P&C and Asset Management segments. The company noted that the first three months of the year showed a good operating performance and confirmed its solid capital position. Total gross written premiums were 19.16 billion euros, up 0.3 percent from last year's 18.87 billion euros. The results reflected positive development from the P&C segment which offset the decline in the Life segment. In the Life segment, net inflows amounted to 3.1 billion euros, down 25.2 percent.
