ASR Nederland's Results Confirm Capital Optionality -- Market Talk

Dow Jones02-18

0928 GMT - ASR Nederland's update is positive, says Keefe, Bruyette & Woods in a research note, after the Dutch insurer released its full-year results. "We believe the update is positive with the group confirming a strong outlook in terms of capital optionality and positive operational momentum across all divisions," analyst Michele Ballatore write. This leaves ASR in a very comfortable position to reduce risk from its Aegon shareholding and to seek value-enhancing opportunities. The group will update its targets and capital management policy on its investor day on Dec. 1, which is viewed as a positive catalyst, he adds. Shares in Amsterdam rise 0.7% to 61.78 euros.
