Suncorp buys $1.7 bln reinsurance cover, sees FY26 premium growth of 3%

Suncorp purchased a five-year aggregate reinsurance cover providing up to A$2.4 billion in total protection over the period. The move strengthens the insurer’s risk management and catastrophe protection, but the announcement is largely routine and does not indicate an immediate earnings change. The news is neutral for the stock and likely to have limited near-term market impact.
