JPMorgan upgraded Hiscox to Overweight from Neutral with a price target of 1,300 GBp, up from 1,200 GBp. The analyst remains positive on European Insurers in spite of continued underperformance over 2023 to date. The firm sees “numerous attractions” including a 7% total capital return, the potential for positive surprise on margins and top-line growth. JPMorgan shifted the stocks on its Analyst Focus List, adding Aviva and Hannover Re and removing Swiss Re and Prudential. It tells investors to focus on capital return as well as reinsurance and restructuring stories.
