On track for another year of exceptional performance, with strong business momentum and confidence in sustaining high returns.

Premium rate increases year-to-date around 1.5%, with higher increases (4%) outside commercial property and Lloyd's.
Group premium rate increases were -1.5% for the nine months, mainly due to commercial property lines.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.
One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
This is genuinely one of the cleanest and fastest finance apps out there to track the market.
