Chubb Q2 Earnings Driven by Diversified Growth

Chubb Limited reported a strong second quarter for 2025, with core operating earnings per share rising 14% year-over-year to $6.14, surpassing analyst forecasts. The insurer achieved record underwriting income, robust investment returns, and double-digit growth in life insurance income. Net premiums written increased 6.3% to $14.2 billion, while the combined ratio improved to 85.6%, reflecting stronger underwriting margins. Catastrophe losses rose to $630 million pre-tax, but this was offset by performance across diversified global operations. Core operating income reached a record $2.5 billion, and both book value and tangible book value per share posted notable gains. Chubb returned over $1 billion to shareholders via buybacks and dividends, with CEO Evan Greenberg highlighting the company's performance across nearly all lines and regions.
