I. OVERVIEW OF KEY GROUP DATA FOR THE FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 2011 (in accordance
with IFRS)

The Vienna Insurance Group earned a total of EUR 4.7 billion premiums written
(consolidated) in the first half-year 2011, up 3.1 percent compared to first
half-year 2010.

The Group profit (before taxes, consolidated) amounted to EUR 282.2 million in
the first half-year 2011. This represented a sharp 10.4 percent increase
compared to first half-year 2010.

The Group combined ratio after reinsurance (excluding investment income) came in
at 97.1 percent for the first half-year of 2011, following 98.3 percent for
first half-year 2010.

The Vienna Insurance Group held investments of approximately EUR 29.0 billion
(incl. bank balances) as at 30 June 2011, and posted a financial result of EUR
554.2 million.


II. OUTLOOK

For many years, the management of Vienna Insurance Group has aspired to minimise
volatility in premiums and profit while ensuring a strong capital base for the
Group. Continuing this successful and durable strategy, Vienna Insurance Group
expects an increase in profit (before taxes) of about 10 percent and a low
percentage growth of premium. Moreover, the Group has set itself the target of
holding the combined ratio at about 97 percent. The prerequisite is, however,
that the economic and legal framework will not deteriorate significantly and
that damage caused by natural disasters will not develop dramatically.
