According to the Financial Times CGNU is close to concluding a deal for its U.S. property/casualty business to White Mountains Insurance Group, a Bermuda based holding company which operates insurance subsidiaries in the U.S.
The report also indicated that CGNU was prepared to accept a lower offer than it had hoped for, under the £2 billion ($2.8 billion) net asset value, as a consequence of the depressed state of the U.S. p/c market and its desire to transfer all of the business to the buyer.

It will pay €189 million ($160.65 million) for Powszechne Towarzystwo Emerytaine Norwich Union, Poland’s 5th largest pension insurer, and €47.5 million for ($40.38 million) for Norwich Union Towarzystwo Ubezpieczen na Zycie, a life insurer.
