Welcome to this press conference after the first 6 months of 2026. Ladies and gentlemen, we have looked into the results of the PZU Group following the first 6 months of our operations this year.

And I must tell you, we have been proud of them. And I rush to tell you why.

And I said, 6 months have proven really demanding. And this demanding character was very much due to geopolitical environment, which had a lot to say as regards the situation on the financial markets, but also it was due to what happened in the Polish market.

We had new tax regulations. We had new regulations of CJEU and regulations concerning the tax rates, plus the very character of the transportation system settlement in Poland.

This notwithstanding, we have proven we are really resilient. Our ecosystem at PZU Group has been resilient.

And thanks to that, we have been able to manage and to have sales secured at PLN 15.7 billion, PLN 0.5 billion almost more year-on-year. We obtained PLN 3 billion net, aROE exceeding the level of 17%.

In parallel to that, we secured a very sound financial standing of PZU. That is our capital position was at 230%, PZU SA at 233%.

Moreover, we took a decision to pay off the dividend equivalent to PLN 4.8. Historically speaking, this has been one of the highest dividend levels ever at PZU Group.

This means we catered to the commitments we had once presented before our shareholders and all stakeholders. In May this year, S&P has made our credit rating stable at A- with a positive outlook.

Importantly, S&P has highlighted as a group, we remain stable capital-wise, and we are very flexible in terms of the growing capital requirements, which are linked to the changing Solvency II entering force as of January 2027. Our Solvency II is at 230%.

It is a bit conservative, but at the same time, it is to be considered a very effective investment portfolio. This is another factor.

And yet another factor is our reinsurance program. What are the sources of the growth in question and the results that we obtained in the first 6 months of 2026.

Well, for the details, we will hear from Maciej Fedyna. We will go through each and every segment of our operations.

Now we'd like to stress our major growth pillars have been group insurance revenue as well as individually continued insurance revenue. There is one factor that I particularly enjoy that is we have been following up on the growth in our individually protected insurance revenue.

Furthermore, we have secured a 30% growth for the last 6 months in assets of external clients. It is a very positive information because in all these factors, we have undertaken very effective actions, and they have brought about some tangible results.

And let me now refer to some of your comments. We have prepared some bits of information on PZU Zdrowie, where we have grown at a 2-digit speed.

Well, you may recall when I joined the Board, I kept stressing investments should remain central for our operations at PZU Group. So let me draw your attention to that.

And happily, after 6 months, we have secured an almost 40% growth in the assets of external clients, which are managed by PZU Group TFI, that is TFI PZU, Pekao TFI and Alior TFI, respectively. Now moving on to PZU Zdrowie.

Have a look. We have managed a revenue growth here.

At the same time, we have concentrated on making our offer as comprehensive as possible and linked to our life insurance scheme. Parallel to that, we have developed our offer in terms of PZU Zdrowie services pillar.

And here, we focus on 2 elements. Number one, expansion of our own medical facilities in a number of 133 medical facilities.

Yesterday, we had a new entry of a 134th facility located this time in Bydgoszcz. Furthermore, we have followed up on our acquisitions in Poland.

And adding to that, we are minded to expand our offer both at PZU Group and at our capital group. One example being the acquisition of Babka Medica plus Boramed, another company.

And we really want to make the best of the potential those 2 companies present. They are especially good at women's health care.

As regards CM Gamma, here, we are happy. We have obtained some Polish expert orthopedics.

Thanks to that, we can guarantee to our customers some most sophisticated treatment options in the area of orthopedics. Our network is well developed.

But if there are any white spots, we intensely search for facilities that we could possibly acquire. One example being CM Osteodex.

This particular facility covers one particular white spot that we had in the past. And that's precisely the line we are minded to pursue in the future as well.

With the overarching goal is to make the access to leading specialists easier and the same holds true for making access to some advanced treatment options. We want the offer for our customers to be as comprehensive, as holistic as possible.

The first 6 months of 2026 have been marked by the constant expansion of our product offer. Examples, PZU Orto Plan, in addition to group life insurance programs.

It makes possible to cover the costs of planned orthopedic surgeries connected to the ramifications of accidents. And this is how we want to make our offer more and more comprehensive.

Now non-life insurance segments. We have supplemented our offer directed at SMEs, expert network for the -- for our insurances, personal accident and business interruption, BI insurance.

This is a segment that has started to play an ever more prominent role in our economy, and that's why we want our customers to have access to modern solutions provided by the PZU Group. We coordinate also the insurance scheme, which is addressed at the nuclear sector and my colleagues are very active in this domain, preparing the offer for our partners.

Let me get back briefly to the investment pillar. Now we managed as many as PLN 139 million assets at ETF PZU.

And let me tell you this. We are especially proud of the fact is that almost PLN 60 million of these assets are connected to long-term saving schemes.

They are both pension products as well as PPK scheme. There is yet another success worth mentioning.

At TFI PZU, they have received the level of more than PLN 130 million. And that's the fact that makes us all very happy.

And I trust it marks a new beginning on the path that we want to pursue. There are some new listings of other ETFs.

And let me take this opportunity to tell you that we are all sellers at PZU. We are all salespeople, and that's why let me encourage you to take advantage of one particular discount at our ETFs purchase them at very favorable conditions.

And the discount will last by the end of the year. So we have discussed pure business, but there is also a whole range of other strategic projects that we have pursued, and they are to boost our effectiveness.

And especially, we concentrate on boosting our effectiveness in terms of technological debt that we incurred in the past. We are very much minded towards an AI strategy, and these steps are intended to make us AI-ready.

The last conference was about our technological platform. Now we speak of forthcoming projects or platforms that will be attached to very particular segments of our operations.

The goal being boosting quality as well as effectiveness in terms of process management. We want our employees to be able to focus solely on customer experience and making our products and services as good as possible.

So how do we scale up AI at PZU? We have already implemented over 30 AI-enabled solutions implemented and over 30 new initiatives under development.

We focus on those domains on the following domains: underwriting and products in the business section. We are about to open a project that will implement a new operating model for business sales.

And in that model, we want to use AI-enabled solutions. In sales and marketing, we intend to use various AI-based components that would increase the quality and efficiency of customer service.

In terms of claims handling, we will soon announce the implementation phase of the new system for claims handling. This system will be AI ready.

Please note that in claims handling, the PZU group handles about 10,500 claims, and we are paying out about PLN 35 million daily. Therefore, in this specific area, we see a great potential for improvement, for improvement of our efficiency.

Lastly, customer service and organizational support. This is another domain in which we want to introduce AI-enabled solutions.

The plan is to, of course, implement new solutions, but I can already share with you some examples of what we have managed to achieve thus far. Last year, at PZU Group, the number of codes generated using artificial intelligence was at 0.

Today, the number of code that is generated using AI tools amounts to 30% of all code written in our company. So we have made a large step forward, but we're very well aware that there is a long way to go.

We have been consistently implementing our strategy to become a regional insurance leader. We are finalizing the acquisition of MetLife Ukraine.

Currently, we are in the process of obtaining the approval of antitrust authority, and we hope to close this deal at the beginning of next year. We also want to simplify the PZU structure in Poland.

As a part of that, we are moving on with implementing the merger plan with LINK4. We hope that the merger will take place in January.

And we hope that we will be able to effectively put to use the multi-brand strategy following the merger. Also in the first half of this year, together with KUKE, KUKE, we have launched a new product.

And this product offers insurance coverage for extraordinary risks related to military activity in Ukraine. So now I'll just give you a brief reminder of our position in Poland and abroad.

We are the leader of the Polish market. In Lithuania, we're #1 as far as non-life insurance goes, and we rank 6 in terms of life insurance.

In Latvia, we are #1 in non-life insurance. In Estonia, we rank 4 for non-life insurance.

In Ukraine, we rank 9 for non-life insurance, and we rank 4 for life insurance. And as I've said before, the closure of MetLife merger is in the pipeline.

Once it's finalized, we will become a leader on the Ukrainian market. After Q1 2026, our market shares are as following: 28.5% in non-life insurance.

And in life insurance we had over 40% as far as regular premiums go. My colleague will -- is about to give you some more detailed numbers.

But before I give him the floor, I would like to highlight our corporate social responsibility initiatives. You can scan this QR code to access the website where you can find more information about PZU's social engagement over the last few decades.

And now I just wanted to highlight a few initiatives that we implemented in the last 6 months. 47,000 children were trained with our support on how to stay safe when close to water.

We have trained 1,800 people in life-saving skills. We have provided 4,000 safety helmets for cyclists.

Also in cooperation with voluntary firefighters, we sponsored over 3,000 smoke detectors in 2026. We also support voluntary mountaineer rescuers.

We also support voluntary firefighters and voluntary lifeguards in Poland. We also support police and other uniform services in our country.

So corporate social responsibility is something that has been present in our group's DNA. I also believe that this is something that makes us stand out against the competition who also can create similar initiatives and open funds that would be dedicated for corporate social responsibility.

So that's all from me. And now I'll give the floor to Maciej, who will give you some hard financial data.

Thank you for your attention. Ladies and gentlemen, it's a great pleasure for me to present such outstanding results yet again.

The CEO has already said that the total net profit in the first half of this year was slightly about PLN 3 billion. This is a very good result.

We are pleased with it. And we like to break down our results into individual quarters.

Although I must admit that it's not always a good idea to compare quarters one-to-one because there are certain weather events or other events that generate variability and the differences among individual quarters. However, one thing is clear from this data.

The PZU Group, thanks to diversification and having a very broad offer for the customers and selling products across many channels is very resilient. And is able to generate very satisfying results.

In the first half of 2026, insurance service result is the strongest component in our results. It amounted to nearly PLN 2.3 billion.

Our operating margin in life insurance, which is the key business indicator for us, amounted to 27.2%. And in second quarter, actually, it was 29.1%.

So it was even higher. We have managed to achieve such good results for the first half of this year.

Despite minor headwinds and slightly worse result on life insurance than in the previous year. In non-life insurance, the combined ratio is at 87.9%.

So it's the same as last year. And in the second quarter, actually, we managed to achieve a combined ratio at 89%.

This is a very good result, especially taking into account that it's the fourth consecutive quarter when the combined ratio is below 90%. Again, the last quarters and last year was not easy.

There were numerous challenges. So this only demonstrates that our company, thanks to a diversified portfolio and multichannel sales stays very resilient, and we can compensate losses in one part of our activity or potential losses with good results in another sector of our activity.

Also, the results that I'm presenting now show that actually, we are quite reliable and our results are predictable. Now the main portfolio, the result on investment portfolio was at PLN 1.4 billion.

So it's very similar to the results that we published last year. And again, given the general volatility of the markets in 2026, this is a very good result.

Interest rates are lower this year than last year. Therefore, the result on investment portfolio is very good given that piece of information.

And there are differences between -- among individual quarters, but that's attributable to those trends and the one-off events that I mentioned. For instance, last time, we did mention the impact of currency exchange rates on our portfolios.

Well, I have prepared a separate slide dedicated to that, so I will discuss it in a moment. But let us now focus on our core activity.

I always say that CFOs are very happy when revenue grow faster than costs, and that's the case. And I always say that the CEO is also happy when this happens.

So we have had a stable growth quarter-on-quarter and year-on-year. How did we achieve this?

Well, we had very good rentability -- sorry, profitability. And Bogdan also mentioned the -- our business strategy.

We keep adjusting our offer to the needs of our customers in both group and individual insurance. We managed to keep the margin above 25%.

It's been the case for some time already, and this is good news. On top of that, we have been developing individual protection insurance, and that's quite important.

The growth dynamic there is at 26%, 27%. So the importance of this offer has been growing in our portfolio, in particular, given the fact that the margins on those -- on this type of insurance is higher than in group insurance.

So the structure of our portfolio is conducive to growth and growing margin. And often, during meeting with investors, we explain why do we have the growth in individual protection insurance.

And during those meetings, we always stress the fact that the product and the offer is being constantly developed and adapted to the needs of our individual customers. That's one thing.

And the second important aspect of it is making the best use of the skills of our sales force. As a result, they are able to target the right customers.

So basically, our sales force has great potential, and we are making effective use of it. And this is already, I believe, a long-term trend that we can boast.

And this makes up the complex margin at 29.2%. Right.

Let me now jump on to discuss non-life insurance and life insurance. And afterwards, we'll discuss the written premium, which is slightly different to the revenue stream from life insurance.

This is what merits one commentary after the first quarter, we said that the motor insurance environment has been demanding, especially when it comes to MOD insurance. It is visible in our results in quarter 2, especially when it comes to COR in motor insurance, and we are trying our utmost to change it because we had the negative result for 1 quarter.

But as we go and read the figures, let me draw your attention to how high the revenue is of insurance because this might be slightly misleading. You may recall last year, we took a decision on shifting some of the products of some segments of our clients from the mass category towards a more individualized customized underwriting process and corporate field.

And that is why we have a switch of written premium in between the said segments. Therefore, the revenue dynamic in the mass segment might look worse.

Had we not taken that decision, yet the decision in question was more than sound from the characteristics of the business process. And the same helps true for the pace of development in corporate insurance.

It would have been slower had it been not for the decision that we took. So this effect is to be blamed for the negative results we obtained in the motor segment.

It would have stayed negative. Still, it would have been significantly better than the result that we see now.

And there is one more comment I wanted to spare. And this is something that we already said on the occasion of discussing our first quarter.

Profitability in motor insurance is at a very satisfactory level. And this is mainly owing to case handling stuff, case handling process, where we kept improving a lot, especially when it comes to the expected value and the expenses overall in the area of case handling.

We concentrate on the scale of improvement and streamlining, which is especially seen in motor TPL. COR stays at 95%.

Why? Is it so high?

And it is in the corporate area below 90%. It will not be seen in MOD, and that's why there is no compensating effect for the very consequences of the price pressure on that market.

Well, that's one side of the coin. The flip side of the coin is some other positives that we have spotted already.

Well, there are voices on the market saying that there is a dichotomy between the medium claim and medium premium is not something good for middle players, and we've been on top of all these things, and we hope for the trend to reverse in the coming months. Now life insurance.

As said, we rejoice a lot the fact that the margin in subsequent segments is very good. But at the same token, we have been very happy about the dynamics in this segment, which had historically not been as robust in our portfolio.

So the margin is better and the pace of development is better. 5.2% of the premium dynamic in group as well as individual continued insurance is something that we need to pay our attention to.

Look at the demographic trends. There are less and less people in Poland.

That's something that's set to stay and will, for sure, produce its ramifications also on our portfolio. And well, this notwithstanding, we have managed to grow at a pace of more than 5%.

Now let us jump on to Slide #28 -- 29, I'm sorry. So far, we've been talking about some metrics and values in line with IFRS Insurance revenue is not something to be equivalent to the written gross premium on the domestic market.

And let me now focus on the non-life insurance part. Have a look at quarter 2, the pace of our growth has improved significantly 6% -- 26% second quarter 2026 when compared to the second quarter of 2025, we have grown significantly in all the segments in question.

So there is a rebound after the previous quarter where we were circulating around 0 now. And the result we discussed is harbinger of what is to expect of insurance revenue in the future.

And now let us get back to the investment result. Quarter 2 saw a very nice profitability in the portfolio equivalent to 5.3%.

Some part of it is due to the changing nature of the financial markets. And another part of it is due to the effects on effects that we see quarter-to-quarter.

One fact being the way you price the properties, you've got maybe either below or above the 0 level. This time, it was in green.

So we are happy about that. But look at the profitability of our main portfolio.

Our result was PLN 700 million, and that's the major contribution to our overall profitability. Our interest rate revenues have been very stable.

That's the effect of stability in our investment strategy, which sees or has seen no revolutions whatsoever. The financial markets remain volatile.

And in that environment, we try to strain every sinew to secure our profitability, not only in the short term, but also in a longer time horizon. And that's something that is well also due to the fact that the markets remain as said, volatile.

You may ask us a question. We've got such a nature of revenue.

So maybe there is some gap to the fair value. Well, everything is to be seen in the valuation of payoffs, and you'll have a chance to look at that on the forthcoming slides.

Treasury debt, 70% debt instruments, 73%. First quarter, we registered evaluations and the valuations when a drop and it's correlated with the uncertainty the knock-on effect of the Persian Gulf crisis.

The second quarter was way more satisfactory here because the interest rates were lower. For the capital instruments, Here, we gained as well on our investment equity funds.

There is an important component, which is related to both cybersecurity and artificial intelligence. These are 2 domains that produced a lot of money in quarter 2.

On average, the return on our main portfolio exceeds or has exceeded 5%. That's something that we can be very happy about.

Anyway, there is no guarantee it will stay the same. Still, this is an important benchmark and may present a very nice contribution in this segment of our operations.

Now let me jump to this slide on solvency. From now on, we'll outline both the official solvency results in accordance with current regulations.

Plus, we will provide you additionally with a simplified calculation such that we'll show you how our daily solvency would look had we taken advantage of the changed Solvency II rules. And the requirements of the changed banking sector.

So the official solvency towards the end of March was at 230%. So an overall very satisfactory result counter to the fact that March presented a very substantial uncertainty on financial markets.

And that instruments ballooned, it had its impact on the valuation of our portfolio. So it's been taken account of and still did not make our results worse.

They could have been even better if it hadn't been for making to solvency calculations merger. Let me comment on that.

We look at our assets in the insurance world. In the case that we expect these assets will be distributed to our shareholders, then we will need to make these assets smaller.

And here, we come at our own funds. The situation is slightly different in the banking sector.

This is more an accounting metric, and that's why own funds are fed not by own result, but with some delay after some decisions have already been taken. Once the profits eventually stay within the bank.

If we consolidate the assets and bear in mind, we are an important shareholder in 2 banks, there is a collision of 2 worlds. On the one hand -- for the time being, we have not seen the emergence of the funds from the banks that will get to us after the dividend is paid up.

And on the other hand, we take into consideration the whole group's results and some funds, which are attributable to the results made by the banks. It's something very painful in the first quarter every year because throughout the period of 5 quarters, banks are not taken into consideration at that calculation.

Later on, the situation is different because the decisions in question have been made at the general assembly of the group. So we missed just the current year data.

So there are no negative impacts on the banks, on the insurance firm. But when we're trying to make those 2 parts merge, some negative consequences might be felt.

This notwithstanding our results are really good. So let us now look at how Solvency II regulations changes, what kind of ramifications it will produce.

If we apply Solvency II directive at the end of 2025, our solvency instead of 239% would amount to 206%. We are not making any predictions regarding our solvency in 2027 because this depends on our balance sheet and also on the regulations that are in force on that date.

For instance, in September this year, the bank buffer will go up by 0.1%. We also have our subordinated debt that matures in the second half of 2027.

This will all have impact on our situation, dividends included. So all these factors will affect our final solvency.

On this slide, we present numbers that we would be reporting had we adopted the new regulations already today. My conclusion from these figures is as follows.

Regardless of the scenario that we used to analyze the situation of PZU Group in the next year, it is clear that our potential to keep our dividend policy unchanged is very high. It's very likely because the group solvency will stay over 200% after the new regulations come into force and in a volatile environment.

And we have already reported that our benchmarks are 190% until Solvency II enters into force and 182% after Solvency II enters into force. And we managed to achieve it.

Moreover, these benchmarks are much higher than recommended by the financial authority. So these figures show that we are on the right track.

And that our business operations and dividends are safe. In the previous meeting, we have already signaled that we have a few measures that we can take if we need -- if the situation worsens.

And what we can do is we can change the risk level in our investment portfolio. We can modify our reinsurance policy.

And as I said, we are having an ongoing conversation with the financial authority regarding the actuarial risk of our insurance products. And these are all 3 independent areas of our involvement and all boils to one important piece of information.

Our dividend policy will stay as it is. It's not threatened in any way.

Also, the PZU Board has some instruments and measures it can take like reorganizing the group. But for now, there is no need to do it inside.

That's all from us, and we're open to taking questions.

Are there any questions in the room?

I represent Citi Handlowy Bank, and I have 2 questions regarding your presentation. The first question is on the non-life insurance and Casco motor insurance.

In particular, the data regarding written premium show that there are some payment issues in the Casco sector. And how do you explain this?

Well, first of all, we have a very good penetration -- market penetration rate. In our case, that ratio is very high, definitely above average, especially compared to TPL.

The price effect in motor own damage has its explanation. Cars are becoming less expensive.

So this translates into reduced some insured. So the premium might actually go down because of the lower value of vehicles.

So that's one part of the explanation. And another part of the explanation is that our market share in the Casco segment is much higher than in TPL.

Therefore, our sensitivity regarding or market phenomena is different in the Casco segment than it is in third-party liability insurance. For this reason, the price pressure in the Casco segment affects the gross written premium, while in TPL, the price sensitivity is less pronounced and our portfolio is growing faster.

I'd like to underline that in both TPL and MOD, we report a growth in the number of customers and the growth in the premium rate. We are trying to optimize the selection of customer groups in both segments.

We're also trying to find a possibility for increasing the premium wherever it's possible. Recently, we have heard some positive news from the market.

But there are also new competitors entering the Polish market, which means that we will have to create our policy having the competition in mind. And we'll continue to do so because this is a foundation of our group's activity.

We offer a broad range of products for a broad range of customer groups. We sell them across many channels.

So we are not aiming at increasing our market share at any cost. Our aim is to cater to the needs of Polish citizens and offer quality products.

My second question regards life insurance. So congratulations on the growth of the gross written premium, especially in individual insurance.

Can you give me more information regarding the structure of the premium? How does it break down into protection and investment?

Part I remember that in previous presentations, you were giving us more details.

Let me answer this way. We are very proud of our growth, and this growth concerns mainly individual protection insurance.

So the growth does not originate from selling investment products or products that are qualified under the Polish regulations as one-off written premium. The numbers that we give are based on IFRS 17 apply to individual protection.

Life insurance products always include some investment component, but it does not affect the growth of the premium that we present. So what we post is the growth of individual protection coverage offered to individual customers.

And the result does not stem from one-off improvement to the product, but from a stable growth and adapting our offer so that it responds best to our customers' needs. This was not something that was our area of specialty, but this has changed, and we are growing intensely.

If there are no more questions in the room, I will read out the questions that we received online. So Trigon, Brokeringhouse, Maciej Marcinowski.

Can you give us a brief comment regarding the competition? You said that PZU has been growing in certain segments.

Unfortunately, the interpreter did not receive that question, and it was read out very quickly. So Maciej has given you the answer regarding the motor sector.

And the changes in the motor sector are caused by reclassification of the products that we carried out within PZU. But we need to pay special attention to the type of contracts that we have with corporate clients in motor insurance.

So usually, those contracts are entered into for a period of 1 year and the price is fixed for 1 year. Now regarding non-motor insurance, I will reiterate what Maciej said, namely to give you the sources of our group's resilience.

We offer, as Maciej has said, many products, and we take advantage of it. So we are successfully selling insurance -- non-motor insurance to mass customers, non-life insurance, there is and in the corporate segment and non-life insurance, well, what happened there was that the market cycle has changed.

So the prices in non-life insurance in the corporate segment have been falling -- sorry, non-motor. The speaker corrects himself.

Maciej, do you have anything to add?

Well, not all product lines are growing at the same pace. In some segments, we reported double-digit growth in SMEs, the growth is well, not in double digits, but we're growing at a pace closer to 10% than 5%.

Crop protection in that segment, actually, we're not growing, and that segment has negatively affected our sales dynamics. We are reporting growth in tourism, travel -- in travel insurance, and we want to grow more.

And we have amazing growth in additional motor insurance. So that was in mass insurance segment.

And now in the corporate insurance, if we examine the dynamics of the entire portfolio, we'll notice that the major role is played by large investments that translate into written gross premium -- gross written premium. And we're overall generally optimistic about the growth that we may expect this year and in the following years.

It seems that the -- there is a good mood among investors in Poland. Therefore, I believe that we need to examine the growth in the corporate sector over a larger time frame than individual quarters.

And with large contracts, we observe an important role that is played by the global reinsurance market. So if the markets are more risk-ready and they value risk, they may estimate the risk value at a lower rate, then it affects the gross written premium.

Also, we must remember that the market share is not our main goal. We just treat it as an indicator of our position.

So we have a healthy attitude towards it. And we focus on our product groups on the margin.

Yes, this is our main area of focus.

Let me pick up on that. Let me pick up on the solvency question, just to disperse any potential doubt.

We haven't mentioned that next year, we'll have the due date of our subordinated debt. And in this context, we have already started working out various scenarios to be able to answer the question, do we really need refinancing?

And if we do, in fact, need refinancing, then what are depends for that in what currency should it be a single event or maybe a more comprehensive program. That's something that we have already started working on that's in the pipeline.

Looking at the market trends, the environment stands at a very good place for whether or not we can obtain financing. Should there be any news in that regard, we'll share it.

In a way, we wanted to point out, we are working on that. We are following up.

And should there be any opportunity for us to take advantage.

We will. Two other outstanding questions regarding solvency and the dividend.

Marcinowski's question. What will be the positive effect of Solvency II after the internal models have been implemented?

Ladies and gentlemen, this is a bit of news. We mustn't share, not because we don't want to boast about that.

And the reason is there is a dialogue in ongoing between ourselves and the regulator, but it hasn't been brought to fruition yet. And it would be highly inappropriate, should we share this kind of information without prior confirmation of whether the figures are sound, checked and whether we may already treat it as something already granted.

So when we can, we will get back to you with a relevant bit of information. The second question is substantial.

This is something that we can confirm now, but we doesn't give you any figure details.

Another question also correlated to the brokerage of this. Last year, we had a growth in single result.

DPS can also grow year-on-year. Our dear CEO, can you have a say on that?

This year, we have -- we will pay a very high dividend. One, two, we've had a track record about the dividend and its annual growth.

We've had very positive 6 months of 2026 already. But as Maciej said, we mustn't compare quarter-on-quarter.

Anyway, the intent of the entire Board is this. The dividend should be paid every single year in a way to make our shareholders happy.

That's the stance of the company. We are mindful of the expectations of our shareholders, and this is our intent to say to pay off the dividend to our shareholders should the conditions be favorable every year.

There is one more outstanding question, a broad one about the market. What is your outlook of the sector in the longer horizon?

Do you see more consolidation coming or maybe new players coming to the field?

Recently, we've had 2 scenarios played out on the market. There have been some consolidations on the market as well.

However, recently, we have seen many new players emerge also in line of the MGA model that is the one that will also make its prominence on the domestic market.

Let me just pick up on that and say -- for the -- for the market consolidation. And in insurance, well, many events have already happened.

Slide 13 will tell you the story that non-life insurance sees 75% of the market in the hands of 4 groups. These are not companies because one group may see or may accommodate more than one company.

But my takeaway is as far as the consolidation level goes, there is not much room left as the market itself is very concentrated. On the life insurance side, the image will present itself in different terms.

On the life insurance part, we would like to have more consolidation coming because the measures are rather low on our market, and the market itself does not grow at the pace we would wish to see. In Poland, this segment has not been an important part of savings portfolio.

Should there be any important events coming, we will definitely communicate them. Anyway, there are some major global players opening up their activities here also in the spirit of MGA.

So we are more than mindful of the trends we are talking about.

Trigon Dom Maklerski, Maciej Marcinowski. Are you in a position to quantify target savings that may be there, thanks to the AI implementation?

Well, we look at it in -- well, this is a process that we pursue twofold. Number one, there is this technological part, but also we would like to expand on our activities based on modern solutions.

Also, we'll look at demography side, namely thanks to automation, we can so to say, respond to certain forecast challenges to come. We must be ready.

We must be ready in terms of our operations to be able to provide as good as possible service and as efficient as possible service in our customers.

Are there any other remaining questions in the room? Yes, there is one.

Let me ask you another question on some strategic outlooks. Are you planning on to review or update the strategy, especially with regard to the revenue stream that may be evolving somewhat different to what you had expected?

Well, we keep focusing on the accomplishment of strategic targets. Indeed, we have revenues in check.

We are perfectly mindful what the assumptions have been as we were working on the strategy a few years back. Anyway, now we work towards the initiatives which are now in the pipeline, which are to pave the way for another strategy emerging for the years post 2027.

We foreground the strategy components such that revenue streams, how we fare vis-a-vis our shareholder commitments. Dividend policy is of importance.

We want to cater to the dividend expectations, notwithstanding the business environment. And we want to make our group, easy group resilient and ready to pay the dividend as per our commitments.

Just to relate to the revenue part of the question, as Maciej said, look at what is going on, on the motor insurance segment. Some time ago, we would have other assumptions for the development of the market.

But now we must be rather neutral towards how the market fares. We must be flexible in order to be able to respond.

If there is something that goes counter our expectations, we can make best use of the robustness of the PZU Group in order to be able to switch the focus of it. Look at what -- how we fare at our core.

That's the fourth quarter of the year, whereby our COR is below 90% level, which means the system we've adopted has proven operational, has worked out. We must also act on scale.

It goes beyond any question. The margin in the motor insurance is delivered on.

And whenever possible, we try to take advantage of what is going on in other segments, too. A quick reminder, ladies and gentlemen, some time ago, the health segment would require a lot of the Board's attention.

Now the situation is different. We have built up our competencies.

We have built up the scale. We have invested in technologies.

Why? Because this is a fast track towards the growth.

And we also keep on responding to the needs of our fellow citizens. Look at investments.

We have developed our investment portfolio. There are new products that we've began to offer, and they've proven successful.

Just to tell you, we can respond ad hoc. In non-life insurance, we must work on effectiveness and the power of our tied agents, the tied agent channel as well as the other channel, well, have already seen a number of initiatives to boost our effectiveness.

Anyway, if our rivals win on price, that's something unacceptable for us, number one. Number two, we must cater to our commitments.

So that's basically the background. And we feel responsible, right?

Because we mustn't allow for any single mistake. Maciej said, we are following up on the market developments.

The model trends look the way they do. We try to compensate working over advantages in other sectors.

So we are mindful of that. We are mindful of the cycles.

But there is another background that we must experiment on. We've got the structural investments.

But bear in mind, these are going to be only one-offs, not something sustainable, but something that we must invest ourselves in. Otherwise, we will miss the chance.

And all the way along, we present the solid position of our group. Look at how our banks performed in the first 6 months of this year.

The situation was very complicated and the banks had plenty of challenges to respond to. They were as big as the ones that we saw in the insurance business.

To wrap up, our power lies at diversification. We are present in diversified segments and our team can react and respond and train everything to take advantage.

We've got lots of things to do to better our effectiveness and the commodity is something that we must pay back as soon as possible.

A question from PKO Securities. What was the solvency ratio if we included the 2% buffer.

Well, obviously, it would go down, but that change would not be significant. We'll present the results for Q3, and then you will see the effect of this 2% buffer because it will already be in force.

There are also other indicators that will improve our solvency. So you will see this for yourself.

And we decided to present data today without speculating on what would be had we adopted a given indicator or complied with regulations that are about to enter into force in the future. So we presented the result and the results in the -- under the current binding regulations.

And in Q3, we will show the results that include that 2% buffer. CEO.

We announced this at our earlier conference. And as we -- in this group always respect our like we stay true to our word.

We'll show it to you in Q3.

There are no further questions online. And just -- so I would like to wish you a nice day and remind you to take a look at our ETF offer.
