Qatar General Insurance and Reinsurance shares are presently listed at QR72.81 a share on NASDAQ under AGRI. HE Sheikh Khalifa bin Jassim Al-Thani, chairman of Qatar General Insurance and Reinsurance, attributed the downturn to unrealized losses stemming from the revaluation of investment properties and the reclassification of the group’s investments in Algeria. These investments transitioned from being classified as investment in associates to financial assets valued at fair value through other comprehensive income. Despite encountering these challenges, the chairman underscored the company’s unwavering commitment to enhancing operational efficiency and executing its strategic plan. Qatar General Insurance and Reinsurance witnessed a 9% increase in insurance premiums and an improvement in insurance underwriting results, which surged to QR153 million. In light of the financial outcomes for 2023, the board of directors has proposed to abstain from distributing dividends for the year.
