The business operations of the Group segments remain unchanged: as in the previous years, the activities of the Talanx Group continue to encompass the same five Group segments. Whereas in the previous year several companies had been reallocated to different Group segments as a consequence of alignment with the management approach required by IFRS, only one allocation changed in the year under review: the Luxembourg-based Euro International Reinsurance S.A. was reclassified from the Primary/Casualty Primary Insurance segment to the Non-Life Reinsurance segment.
