Ecclesiastical grows 11% in half year as UK and Ireland COR tumbles to 84.2%

Money

Ecclesiastical Insurance achieved £18m of underwriting profit on UK and Ireland business in the first half of 2024 as its combined operating ratio improved substantially to 84.2% from 106.6% in the same period of 2023.

The red ink of a £6.5m underwriting deficit for the start of last year had been driven by large losses following a fire at St Mark’s Church in London in January 2023, and a £4.2m deterioration in prior year liability claims.
