UOI profit before tax decline 2% to $22.1m in 9M2024

Still, its insurance revenue rose by 14% to $79.4m.

United Overseas Insurance (UOI) has reported a 2% decrease in its profit before tax for the nine months ended 30 September 2024, totalling $22.1m.

The decline was attributed to a drop in net insurance service and financial results, despite being partially offset by robust investment returns fueled by positive market sentiment.

For the same period, UOI recorded a net insurance service and financial result of $11.8m, a 9% year-on-year decline. This was largely due to increased insurance service expenses, including higher acquisition costs and incurred claims.

Meanwhile, insurance revenue rose by 14% to $79.4m, largely due to a higher release of the contractual service margin for services provided in tandem with overall top line growth.

Moreover, the company’s total comprehensive income after tax surged by 63% to $30.1m, buoyed by higher valuations in the company's equity and bond portfolios, supported by favourable market conditions and recent interest rate cuts.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
