A closer look at what is happening inside the business
An insurer's statements are read with the industry's own questions: premiums, claims, investment income, capital and reserves.
Is premium growth healthy?
Premium growth and revenue engine
▲Net insurance premium reached 2,325 bn VND, with net insurance premium growth at 12.6% year on year. The premium retention ratio was 89.5%, so growth is not being achieved through an aggressive reinsurance shift.
Top-line momentum confirms the thesis, especially as net insurance revenue moves in the same direction as premium.

Is underwriting profitable?
Underwriting quality and claims pressure
◆The combined ratio was 102.0%, still above technical-profit territory. However, claims did not deteriorate sharply (-0.8 ppt), so the read is weak but stabilizing.
Underwriting is a qualifying layer: it needs more improvement before confirming a positive thesis.
- CLAIMS BURDEN
- 34.0% -0.8 ppt
- DIRECT EXPENSE BURDEN
- 68.1% +0.2 ppt
- CLAIM EXPENSES
- 784.9bn None
- DIRECT UNDERWRITING EXPENSES
- 1,673.4bn None
- INSURANCE COMMISSION EXPENSE
- 444.9bn None
- CLAIM RESERVE MOVEMENT
- 50.8bn None
Investment income and profit mix
▼Financial profit contributed 48.2% of PBT and changed -4.7 ppt year on year. Financial expense burden was 0.1%, so investment income is a quality support layer for ROE.
For a non-life insurer, this contribution zone is healthy when underwriting is not fully replaced by investment income.

- INSURANCE GROSS PROFIT

Are capital and reserves adequate?
Capital, reserves and balance-sheet strength
▲Equity to assets was 37.9%, giving the non-life model a healthy capital buffer. Liquid investments to assets stood at 77.1%, giving the balance sheet room to absorb claims volatility.
Capital is a supportive context layer here, not the main story.
- EQUITY TO ASSETS

In summary
Research synthesis
What this reporting period is showing
Signals remain mixed, so the investment conclusion should synthesize rather than assert one dominant story.
The sections remain inconsistent: underwriting improved as claims burden fell 0.8 ppt to 34.0%; investment income plays a supporting role with financial profit at 153.3bn; premium remains stable with retention at 89.5% and premium growing 12.6%; capital structure with equity to assets at 37.9% is a capital buffer to cross-check.
The story is not yet clear, so monitor further before taking a firm view. Data across ABI's sections remains limited, so we will monitor more reporting cycles before making a firmer assessment.
What to verify next
Questions for the next period
Watch whether the claims burden around 33.8% stabilizes or eases in coming periods, as claims remain a key driver of underwriting profit.
Watch whether liquid investments — currently 77.1% of total assets — maintain their share, as liquidity is the balance sheet’s main support.
Watch whether net premium growth (+13.2% in the latest year) is sustained, as premium growth is an insurer’s main revenue engine.
