The economic environment continued to challenge us in 2015. However, UNIQA still managed to record the best earnings before taxes in its history. Based on this fact, it will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to increase the dividend to 47 cents per share.
UNIQA shares are listed in the prime market segment of the Vienna Stock Exchange. After the successful re-IPO in October 2013 and the resulting sharp increase in liquidity, since 2014 UNIQA shares have also been listed in Austria’s leading ATX index.
The UNIQA share price dropped by around 3 per cent during the course of 2015 to €7.53, largely held back by the continuing record low yields. During the same period, Austria’s leading ATX index rose by nearly 11 per cent, and the benchmark index for the European insurance sector, EURO STOXX Insurance, also gained around 20 per cent.
