The above table clearly shows how the proportional portfolio was reduced, especially as regards property business. The decrease in life insurance and accident is limited to personal accident business in Italy. Conditions in long-tail non-proportional business remained stable or even improved in some countries. Combined with an upgrade of the S&P rating to AA- they enabled us to realize a significant growth in this segment in different countries.
