IAG Targets A$25 Billion Premiums and Over 11 Million Customers by 2030 IAG has outlined its Ambition 2030 plan, targeting more than A$25b in gross written premiums and serving over 11 million customers by 2030.
The group is aiming for a return on equity above 15%, insurance profit above A$2.2b, and high single-digit annual growth in earnings per share under this plan.
Four key pillars underpin the roadmap: customer focus, insurance excellence, modernised operations and talent. These are supported by investment in technology, AI, operational transformation and partnerships, including arrangements with RACQ and RAC that are expected to contribute up to A$3b in premiums and add to earnings per share.
The focus on technology, partnerships and operational efficiency signals that management is concentrating on scale and cost discipline alongside top-line growth targets.
Investors will still want to watch how IAG handles claims inflation, natural disaster exposure and regulatory approvals, which the company highlights as ongoing areas of risk. Declared Dividend • Feb 14

IAG Reportedly Eyes Sale of $4 Billion-Plus Insurance Unit Insurance Australia Group Limited (ASX:IAG) is in focus in the financial services industry amid speculation that the ASX-listed company could be positioning a $4 billion-plus division of the business for sale. While IAG has denied it is on offer or it has formally hired an investment bank, sources believe investment bank Barrenjoey is positioning itself for a role selling IAG's intermediated insurance business. This largely consists of its CGU business, which some estimate could be worth between $4 billion and $5.5 billion. Fuelling the speculation is that IAG separated the unit from the overall IAG business last year, and some think that's in preparation for a sale. The logic is that the earnings margins for that business are lower than for other parts of the company, and for earnings to grow, it needs to increase its broker network.
