Evan G. Greenberg, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Chubb Limited, commented: "We had another great quarter which contributed to record six-month results. Per-share core operating income in the quarter was up 9.3% while record year-to-date operating income was up 15.7%. Our P&C underwriting results in the quarter were simply excellent in spite of a higher level of catastrophe losses, highlighted by a published combined ratio of 86.8%, and supported by record ex-CAT current accident year underwriting income of $1.8 billion and a combined ratio of 83.2%. Adjusted investment income topped $1.5 billion, up nearly 26% and a record, and we grew life segment income about 11.5% in constant dollars with international life up over 15%. We produced double-digit premium revenue growth across the globe with strong results in our North America P&C, International P&C, and Life Insurance divisions.
"Commercial P&C underwriting conditions are favorable, with property naturally more competitive and casualty pricing firming in the areas that need it. We see this trend in casualty enduring. Loss-cost inflation in short- and long-tail lines remained steady. Consumer P&C underwriting and growth conditions are quite attractive, and we are growing at a double-digit pace our market-leading high-net-worth personal lines business in North America while we are pursuing a broad set of opportunities in A&H and personal lines across the globe.
"Total company net premiums increased 11.8%, with Global P&C up 11.2% and Life Insurance up 24.5%. Premiums in North America were up 8% and consisted of 12.3% growth in high-net-worth personal insurance and 6.7% growth in commercial, with P&C lines up 8.7% and financial lines down about 3%. For the rest of the world, our premiums were up more than 15.5%, with commercial up 13.3% and consumer up over 19%. Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Continent of Europe were up 32.9%, 13.7%, and 10.8%, respectively.
"In summary, we had a great quarter, and, again, our results reflect the strength, breadth and depth globally of the company. We are confident in our ability to continue growing our operating earnings at a superior rate through P&C revenue growth and underwriting margins, investment income, and life income."
