The disposal is reportedly expected to generate an immaterial impact on its Solvency II position and a capital loss of approximately €20 million after taxes and minorities with no impact on the adjusted net result.

The transaction is anticipated to be completed by the first half of 2025, subject to obtaining the necessary authorisations from the competent authorities.

PwC acted as the sole financial advisor and also provided vendor assistance services to Generali, while PJS Law (Dentons) acted as the legal advisor.
