    The Board of Management of Munich Reinsurance Company intends to propose to the Annual General Meeting a dividend of €24.00 per share for the 2025 financial year (consensus: €21.86). The Supervisory Board is to decide on the Board of Management’s dividend planning once the final business figures are available for 2025. The dividend payment is subject to the resolution of the Annual General Meeting.

    In addition, the Board of Management has resolved to purchase own shares amounting to a maximum value of €2,250mn (excluding incidental expenses) in the period from 29 April 2026 until the Annual General Meeting on 29 April 2027 at the latest. The repurchased shares are to be retired. The share buy-back programme is subject to the approval of the Praesidium and Sustainability Committee of the Supervisory Board.
