AXA Mansard Insurance Plc, a member of the AXA Group has posted gross premium of N13.5 billion and profit after tax of N1.51 billion for the third quarter ended September 30, 2015.

Commenting on the result, the Chief Financial Officer of the company, Mrs. Rashidat Adebisi, said: “In the quarter under review, Profit Before Tax grew by 28 per cent, this was driven by a 55 per cent growth in investment and other income and a three per cent decline in underwriting expense.
“However, gross premium Written declined by 8per cent, this was caused by the non-renewal/delay of certain transactions as a result of the prevailing macro-economic uncertainties. Looking forward, we maintain a positive outlook as the new administration begins to issue polices that would give the economy a positive direction.”
