A dividend of EUR 1.73 per share proposed by the Vienna Insurance Group (VIG) Managing Board and Supervisory Board was approved during the Annual General Meeting, which represents a 12% increase on the previous year’s dividend, VIG said in a statement.

According to the statement, the dividend policy specifies the previous year’s dividend as the minimum dividend and sets out a continuous increase in the dividend depending on the development of the operating result.

CEO Hartwig Löger presented the Group’s 2025 results, which came from strong growth and high profitability across all countries, as well as the new Group strategy “evolve28”. As the clear market leader in Central and Eastern Europe, the Group thus plans to continue its dynamic growth for the years 2026 to 2028.

The outlook for the 2026 financial year is also extremely positive: against the backdrop of the Group’s high resilience and diversification, VIG’s management has the ambition to achieve a result before taxes within a range of EUR 1.25 to EUR 1.3 billion for the financial year 2026, excluding the Nürnberger acquisition.
