ICICI Lombard achieved a profit after tax of Rs. 17 crore (US$ 4 million) in Q1-2006.
ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Company (ICICI Prudential Life) continued to maintain its market leadership among private sector life insurance companies. Life insurance companies worldwide require five to seven years to achieve breakeven, in view of business set-up and customer acquisition costs in the initial years as well as reserving for actuarial liability. While the growing operations of ICICI Prudential Life had a negative impact of Rs. 47 crore (US$ 11 million) on the Bank’s consolidated profit after tax in Q1-2006 on account of the above reasons, the company’s unaudited New Business Achieved Profit (NBAP) for Q1-2006 was Rs. 69 crore (US$ 16 million). NBAP is a metric for the economic value of the new business written during a defined period. It is measured as the present value of all the future profits for the shareholders, on account of the new business based on standard assumptions of mortality, expenses and other parameters. Internationally, life insurance companies in the growth phase are valued as a multiple of their NBAP.
ICICI Venture Funds Management Company announced the first closing of its real estate fund with commitments of US$ 200 million, while the India Advantage Fund continued to perform well and made its maiden distribution to its investors. Prudential ICICI Asset Management Company was the largest private sector mutual fund in India at June 30, 2005 with assets under management of over Rs. 17,000 crore (US$ 3.9 billion).
