Strong six months for FBD
Earlier this month, FBD Holdings plc recorded a strong showing for the first six months of 2018, revealing a profit before tax of €18 million.
This was announced in the group’s half-yearly report, for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
Gross Written Premium has increased by 1% to €192 million in 2018 – some €2 million higher than 2017 figures. The company has put this rise down to strong customer retention, combined with increased new business in Consumer, Commercial and Farm aspects of the firm.
FBD Holdings recorded a half-year annualised return on equity of 12% for the past six months.
The firm’s net profit before tax has seen a considerable increase of 54.6% over last year, recording a figure of €18.4 million – compared to €11.9 million in 2017.
