In the liability, accident and motor insurance lines, the second-largest segment of Deutsche Rück's portfolio, gross premiums rose by 23.9% to €485.8 million. Gross premium income in property insurance, which accounts for more than two-thirds of Deutsche Rück Group's gross premiums, also grew strongly by 16.5% to €1.4 billion.
