Munich Re (MUVGn.DE): 2Q’26 earnings preview

Munich Re reports its 2Q’26 results on August 7. Overall, our Net Result estimate is Andrew Baker, CFA

c.8% above company-collected consensus, primarily driven by a higher P&C Re and andrew.x.baker@gs.com

Munich Re will also report its mid-year renewals. In the January / April 2026

renewals, Munich Re’s risk adjusted price change was -2.5% / -3.1% with overall

premium growth of c.-7.8% / c.-18.5%. The nat cat weighting for July is the highest

of the renewal periods at 35% (vs. 14% in January and 31% in April), which we

believe points to risk-adjusted pricing that looks more like April (-3% to -5%);

however, Munich Re’s discipline in walking away from business that it deems not to

be rate adequate makes forecasting premium growth difficult.
