QBE Insurance Group needs an entity-specific source guide. QBE combines a listed Australian parent with international insurance, reinsurance, captive reinsurance, and regionally organized operating entities. Its US-dollar group reporting despite an Australian domicile and its indicative APRA PCA measure make label and perimeter preservation especially important. The canonical company surface is the QBE Insurance Group profile, while the references archive is the source-card record.
The qualified pack contains 5 cards across 5 source categories and 2 source owners or independently maintained paths. Its latest recorded reporting period is FY2025. Those counts describe evidence coverage, not a score or a claim that every source measures the same thing.

Why This Source Map Is Distinct
Qualifies with a static FY2025 annual report and results release, entity-specific ratings, corporate profile, and ASX support; the HTTP 403 investor landing page was remediated to linked static documents. Together, the cards establish a route from identity and business scope to periodic reporting and capital, regulatory, ratings, exchange, or profile context. They do not merge those source types into one universal measure.
Reading The Source Categories
1. Static annual report
Owner: QBE Insurance Group. Category: Static annual report. Reporting period: FY2025. Entity scope: QBE Insurance Group consolidated. Evidence: Provides audited FY2025 statements, parent/group identity, segment reporting, and operating-entity context. The profile reports more than 13,000 employees and insurance activities in 26 countries. Caution: Investor entry returned HTTP 403; linked static report returned HTTP 200. Preserve group, segment, legal-entity, and US-dollar labels.
2. Full-year results/ASX announcement
Owner: QBE Insurance Group. Category: Full-year results/ASX announcement. Reporting period: FY2025. Entity scope: QBE Insurance Group consolidated and disclosed divisions. Evidence: Gross written premium was US$23,959 million, statutory net profit after tax US$2,157 million, combined operating ratio 91.9%, and indicative APRA PCA multiple 1.87x at 2025-12-31. Caution: HTTP 200; adjusted profit, combined operating ratio, constant-currency growth, and indicative PCA are issuer-defined measures and are not recommendations.
3. Credit ratings
Owner: QBE Insurance Group. Category: Credit ratings. Reporting period: Current table. Entity scope: QBE parent issuer rating and separately named operating insurers. Evidence: Records parent/issuer and operating-insurer ratings by S&P, AM Best, and Fitch, including S&P AA-/stable insurer financial strength and A/stable issuer credit rating in the group summary. Caution: HTTP 200; preserve agency, scale, effective date, rating type, outlook, and rated entity. No recommendation language.
4. Official company profile
Owner: QBE Insurance Group. Category: Official company profile. Reporting period: Current profile. Entity scope: QBE international insurer and reinsurer. Evidence: Supports Sydney headquarters, an international insurer/reinsurer identity, jurisdiction-specific presence in 26 countries, and commercial, personal, specialty, reinsurance, and risk-management activities. Caution: HTTP 200; country presence does not prove a QBE legal insurer is authorized for every product in every market.
5. Exchange/company page
Owner: Australian Securities Exchange. Category: Exchange/company page. Reporting period: Current listing. Entity scope: QBE Insurance Group Limited, code QBE. Evidence: Supports listed-parent and security-code identity. Caution: HTTP 200; current security price and market-cap data are excluded.
Reporting Periods And Company-Specific Facts
The source cards above contain the pack's principal numerical evidence from Static annual report, Full-year results/ASX announcement, Official company profile. Each fact remains inside its complete reporting-period and entity-scope record rather than being detached into a current-value table. Units, currencies, denominators, statutory or non-statutory labels, and issuer-defined terminology must remain exactly as the applicable card records them.
Period discipline matters here. A current profile page, an annual report, a regulatory return, a ratings page, and an exchange record can all be valid while answering different questions. The source date and reviewed date do not replace the underlying reporting period, and group totals cannot be moved to a subsidiary or business line without explicit support.
Entity Boundary
Treat QBE Insurance Group Limited as the ASX-listed parent and QBE as the consolidated group. Keep Australia Pacific, International, North America, QBE Re, captive reinsurers, and each licensed operating insurer mapped to their disclosed segment or legal-entity scope. The guide therefore keeps the parent, consolidated group, operating insurers, brands, branches, joint ventures, and non-insurance businesses separate whenever the dossier identifies those distinctions.
What The Pack Can And Cannot Establish
The pack can establish source ownership, source category, accepted URL, reporting period, reviewed date, and the entity or segment scope stated on each card. It can also support the company-specific facts recorded in the dossier when their labels, units, currencies, denominators, and periods are preserved.
It cannot establish current security value, relative ranking, product suitability, available underwriting capacity, present pricing, placement terms, private treaty terms, or a standalone conclusion about solvency. Issuer-defined measures remain tied to the issuer's methodology and are not automatically comparable with similarly named measures from another insurer.
How To Use This Map
Start with the source category that matches the question. Use annual or full-year reporting for period-specific group facts, regulatory material for the named regulatory perimeter, ratings material for the named rated entity and opinion type, and exchange or corporate-profile material only for identity and public-record context. Then confirm the card's period, entity scope, unit, and caution before carrying any fact into another editorial surface.
