25.04.25 22:06:24 | Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft (MUV2.DE): Among the Best German Dividend Stocks to Buy Now | ![]() |
We recently published a list of 10 Best German Dividend Stocks To Buy Now. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft Aktiengesellschaft in München (XETRA:MUV2.DE) stands against other best German dividend stocks to buy now. At the end of January this year, Germany’s government significantly slashed its GDP growth forecast for 2025 to just 0.3% from the prior estimate of 1.1%. German economy minister Robert Habeck expressed concern, highlighting stagnation despite some positive signs like rising credit demand. This revision is in line with projections from other institutions like the IMF and Bundesbank. Germany’s economy shrank by 0.2% in 2024, following a 0.3% decline in 2023. The government pointed to stagnant growth plans, geopolitical uncertainties, and structural issues such as labor shortages and weak investment. While the country faces challenges, there is hope for better growth by 2026. Similarly, Germany’s Ifo Institute has also cut its 2025 growth forecast to just 0.2%, pointing to sluggish consumer spending and hesitancy among companies to invest. While a slight improvement to 0.8% is expected next year, the outlook remains shaky due to political uncertainty and possible US trade policies. Despite some recovery in purchasing power, consumer confidence is still low, and industries are feeling the pressure from weak demand and growing global competition. Ifo also warned that US tariffs on European goods could pose a serious threat to German exports. According to the Association of German Banks, a stronger recovery is not likely until 2026, when growth could reach 1.4%. The outlook has worsened, especially after the U.S. announced a 25% tariff on imported cars, causing a major blow to German automakers. Corporate investment is also expected to stay sluggish, with even the projected 3.5% increase in 2026 falling short of previous post-crisis rebounds. Still, experts say that strong reforms and a more competitive tax policy from the next government could help turn things around sooner. Jari Stehn, Chief European Economist at Goldman Sachs Research, shed some light on the German economy and commented back in December 2024: “Even though industrial production is down significantly over the last few years, the amount of value added has actually been much more stable. German companies have been able to respond by moving out of relatively low-margin production in chemicals or paper, and so on, into higher value production. I think the way forward essentially is for German companies to continue to do that.” Story Continues With that outlook in mind, individuals who want to diversify their portfolios and add income-generating stocks to their investment mix can invest in some stable German dividend stocks. Our Methodology For this article, we used the iShares DivDAX® UCITS ETF (DE) to filter out German dividend stocks. The ETF aims to replicate the performance of an index comprising 15 high dividend yield stocks selected from the 30 largest and most actively traded companies on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange’s Prime Standard segment. From this fund, we focused on picking prominent stocks with positive investor sentiment, stable yields, and strong dividend policies. The list below is ranked in ascending order of dividend yield as of April 21. Why are we interested in the stocks that hedge funds pile into? The reason is simple: our research has shown that we can outperform the market by imitating the top stock picks of the best hedge funds. Our quarterly newsletter’s strategy selects 14 small-cap and large-cap stocks every quarter and has returned 373.4% since May 2014, beating its benchmark by 218 percentage points (see more details here).Is Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft Aktiengesellschaft in München (MUV2.DE) the Best German Dividend Stock To Buy Now? A close-up of a signed policy document from an insurance-reinsurance company. Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft Aktiengesellschaft in München (XETRA:MUV2.DE) Dividend Yield as of April 21: 3.33% Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft Aktiengesellschaft in München (XETRA:MUV2.DE), based in Munich and founded in 1880, is a global insurance and reinsurance company. Its plans include policies from life, health, and property reinsurance to specialty coverage like cyber, agriculture, and natural catastrophes. Munich Re is one of the best German dividend stocks to invest in, with a dividend yield of 3.33% as of April 21. On March 24, Goldman Sachs raised the price target on Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft Aktiengesellschaft in München (XETRA:MUV2.DE) from €562 to €573, but downgraded the stock from Buy to Neutral. Munich Re’s stock has climbed about 20% since September 2024, outperforming the broader market. While analysts at Goldman Sachs still see strong earnings and capital return potential, the current valuation looks a bit stretched, and with earnings estimates now matching market expectations, there is not much room left for surprise gains. Munich Re reported a net profit of €5.7 billion in 2024, beating its annual targets for the fourth year in a row. The company’s performance continues to outpace its peers, both in earnings and in shareholder returns. Since launching its Ambition 2025 strategy back in 2021, the share price has essentially doubled, crossing €500 in 2024. Munich Re also plans to increase its dividend to €20 per share and has approved a new €2 billion share buyback, €500 million more than last year, pending shareholder approval. Overall, MUV2.DE ranks 9th on our list of best German dividend stocks to buy now. While we acknowledge the potential of German stocks as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some deeply undervalued dividend stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns, and doing so within a shorter time frame. If you are looking for a deeply undervalued dividend stock that is more promising than MUV2.DE but that trades at 10 times its earnings and grows its earnings at double digit rates annually, check out our report about the dirt cheap dividend stock.

21.04.25 06:19:08 | Is Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft Aktiengesellschaft in München's (ETR:MUV2) Recent Stock Performance Tethered To Its Strong Fundamentals? | ![]() |
Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München (ETR:MUV2) has had a great run on the share market with its stock up by a significant 19% over the last three months. Since the market usually pay for a company’s long-term fundamentals, we decided to study the company’s key performance indicators to see if they could be influencing the market. In this article, we decided to focus on Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München's ROE. Return on Equity or ROE is a test of how effectively a company is growing its value and managing investors’ money. In simpler terms, it measures the profitability of a company in relation to shareholder's equity. We check all companies for important risks. See what we found for Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München in our free report. How To Calculate Return On Equity? Return on equity can be calculated by using the formula: Return on Equity = Net Profit (from continuing operations) ÷ Shareholders' Equity So, based on the above formula, the ROE for Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München is: 17% = €5.7b ÷ €33b (Based on the trailing twelve months to December 2024). The 'return' refers to a company's earnings over the last year. That means that for every €1 worth of shareholders' equity, the company generated €0.17 in profit. Check out our latest analysis for Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München Why Is ROE Important For Earnings Growth? So far, we've learned that ROE is a measure of a company's profitability. Based on how much of its profits the company chooses to reinvest or "retain", we are then able to evaluate a company's future ability to generate profits. Generally speaking, other things being equal, firms with a high return on equity and profit retention, have a higher growth rate than firms that don’t share these attributes. A Side By Side comparison of Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München's Earnings Growth And 17% ROE At first glance, Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München seems to have a decent ROE. Even when compared to the industry average of 17% the company's ROE looks quite decent. Consequently, this likely laid the ground for the impressive net income growth of 25% seen over the past five years by Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München. However, there could also be other drivers behind this growth. Such as - high earnings retention or an efficient management in place. Next, on comparing with the industry net income growth, we found that Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München's growth is quite high when compared to the industry average growth of 10% in the same period, which is great to see. Story Continues XTRA:MUV2 Past Earnings Growth April 21st 2025 Earnings growth is a huge factor in stock valuation. It’s important for an investor to know whether the market has priced in the company's expected earnings growth (or decline). By doing so, they will have an idea if the stock is headed into clear blue waters or if swampy waters await. Is Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München fairly valued compared to other companies? These 3 valuation measures might help you decide. Is Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München Efficiently Re-investing Its Profits? Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München has a three-year median payout ratio of 35% (where it is retaining 65% of its income) which is not too low or not too high. So it seems that Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München is reinvesting efficiently in a way that it sees impressive growth in its earnings (discussed above) and pays a dividend that's well covered. Besides, Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München has been paying dividends for at least ten years or more. This shows that the company is committed to sharing profits with its shareholders. Upon studying the latest analysts' consensus data, we found that the company's future payout ratio is expected to rise to 45% over the next three years. However, the company's ROE is not expected to change by much despite the higher expected payout ratio. Conclusion On the whole, we feel that Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München's performance has been quite good. Specifically, we like that the company is reinvesting a huge chunk of its profits at a high rate of return. This of course has caused the company to see substantial growth in its earnings.

Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft Aktiengesellschaft in München's (ETR:MUV2) periodic dividend will be increasing on the 6th of May to €20.00, with investors receiving 33% more than last year's €15.00. Despite this raise, the dividend yield of 2.7% is only a modest boost to shareholder returns. Check out our latest analysis for Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München's Payment Could Potentially Have Solid Earnings Coverage Even a low dividend yield can be attractive if it is sustained for years on end. Based on the last payment, Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München was paying only paying out a fraction of earnings, but the payment was a massive 150% of cash flows. While the business may be attempting to set a balanced dividend policy, a cash payout ratio this high might expose the dividend to being cut if the business ran into some challenges. Over the next year, EPS is forecast to expand by 23.3%. If the dividend continues on this path, the payout ratio could be 40% by next year, which we think can be pretty sustainable going forward.XTRA:MUV2 Historic Dividend March 1st 2025 Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München Has A Solid Track Record The company has an extended history of paying stable dividends. Since 2015, the dividend has gone from €7.25 total annually to €15.00. This works out to be a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 7.5% a year over that time. Companies like this can be very valuable over the long term, if the decent rate of growth can be maintained. The Dividend Looks Likely To Grow The company's investors will be pleased to have been receiving dividend income for some time. Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München has impressed us by growing EPS at 18% per year over the past five years. A low payout ratio and decent growth suggests that the company is reinvesting well, and it also has plenty of room to increase the dividend over time. In Summary In summary, while it's always good to see the dividend being raised, we don't think Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München's payments are rock solid. While Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft in München is earning enough to cover the payments, the cash flows are lacking. We would be a touch cautious of relying on this stock primarily for the dividend income. Companies possessing a stable dividend policy will likely enjoy greater investor interest than those suffering from a more inconsistent approach. At the same time, there are other factors our readers should be conscious of before pouring capital into a stock.

26.02.25 06:58:34 | Munich Re faces $1.3 billion in claims from Los Angeles inferno | ![]() |
By Tom Sims and Alexander Hübner FRANKFURT - Germany's Munich Re (MUV2.DE) expects about 1.2 billion euros ($1.26 billion) in claims resulting from the Los Angeles wildfires, it said on Wednesday, representing the biggest loss reported so far by a single European reinsurer for the January catastrophe. The wildfires killed more than two dozen people and destroyed or damaged more than 16,000 structures, charring an area bigger than Paris. "They were clearly the most substantial wildfire losses in the history of the insurance industry," Munich Re said. Munich Re, the world's largest reinsurer, said that its estimate was a high degree of uncertainty because the losses were complex. Analysts have estimated insurance claims across the industry could total $45 billion. Hannover Re, another German reinsurer, has said that it could face claims claims amounting to 700 million euros. Fitch, the credit ratings company, has said that European insurers had reduced exposure to California after a spate of fires in 2017 and 2018 but would still be "materially affected" by the 2025 fires because of their scale. Munich Re provided the estimate as part of its fourth-quarter earnings report, which showed a 2.5% fall in net profit, slightly worse than analysts had expected. Fourth-quarter net profit was 979 million euros, down from 1 billion euros a year earlier and short of a 1.02 billion euro analyst consensus provided by the company. Despite the hit from the fires, Munich Re expects net profit for 2025 to rise to 6 billion euros from 5.7 billion euros in 2024.
