Achmea's Annual General Meeting adopted the financial statements for 2024 and approved a dividend payment of EUR 335 million. This is the first year in which the Dutch insurer Achmea reports on the material sustainability aspects of its business operations, in accordance with the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD).

According to the company’s press release, in 2024, Achmea successfully executed its growth strategy and achieved strong financial and non-financial results.

“Based on our cooperative identity and our vision 'Sustainable Living, Together', we work on solutions for customers and social issues. The introduction of the CSRD is a positive development, as it provides more transparency about how companies create value, both financially and socially. In addition, this development enables us, and other companies, to focus even more specifically on increasing social impact. I thank all colleagues, customers and partners for their contribution over the past year and look forward to a sustainable and successful future with confidence”, commented Bianca Tetteroo, Chair of the Executive Board.

Achmea also published the Solvency and Financial Condition Report for 2024, which explains its financial position based on the Solvency II guidelines.

The General Meeting approved the proposal to pay a dividend of EUR 335 million for 2024. Of the total amount of EUR 335 million for 2024, EUR 257 million will be paid out as a stock dividend in the form of newly issued shares (77%) and EUR 78 million in cash (23%). Vereniging Achmea has opted to receive its dividend of EUR 228 million entirely in shares, in line with the statutory objective of this major shareholder.
