Fingerprint
Cardif Élet's line mix, and where it stands among the 25 insurers in Hungary on each measure, FY 2025.
Each bar runs from the weakest to the strongest of the insurers in Hungary with that figure in FY 2025; the dot is this insurer, the tick in the middle the median. Combined ratios as shown across the site: after reinsurance where published, else gross. The rose: each petal's area is the line's share of written premium; the dashed ring is a quarter.
