Aviva plc investor and
analyst briefing on Health business
Aviva plc ("Aviva" or the "Group")
is today hosting an 'In Focus' investor and analyst briefing on its
Health business. The event, which commences at 10:00am (BST), will
be hosted by Charlotte Jones, Group CFO, and presented by Doug
Brown, CEO, Insurance, Wealth & Retirement, and Steve Bridger,
Managing Director, Health.
Health is a core component of
Aviva's strategy as it accelerates growth in capital-light areas,
grows customer numbers and serves more of their needs. It plays a
critical role as part of Aviva's insurance proposition, because of
the fundamental, and increasing, importance of health to all of
Aviva's customers and to the whole UK population.
The UK health market is experiencing
strong and sustained growth, which is set to continue.
Aviva is the number three player,
with leading products and a high-performing business that is
delivering strong growth and profitability.
Aviva is confident in the future for
this business, and aims to deliver £100m of Health operating profit
by 2026, underpinned by continued top-line growth and maintaining
strong underwriting profitability.
Presentation arrangements
Today's presentation and analyst
Q&A will be live-streamed on www.aviva.com,
and a recording will be made available on the website shortly after
the event. Analysts are invited to attend in person. Presentation
slides will be released on Aviva's website shortly before the
