Non-bank financial services provider Contact Financial Holding (CFH) has posted a 12% increase in consolidated total operating income of EGP2.8bn ($51m) in 2025, compared to 2024.

The Group’s growth was driven by exceptional results from the insurance division and a strong performance in the financing division, CFH said in a statement.

Revenue momentum remained robust throughout 2025, CFH said. Insurance revenue increased by 58% y-o-y to EGP2.9bn, driven by a 46% increase in Gross Written Premiums (GWPs) to EGP3.3bn, supported by the ramp-up of new products and increased cross-selling across both Sarwa Insurance and Sarwa Life.

Moreover, the strong top-line performance resulted in the division’s operating income rising by 15% y-o-y to EGP562m. However, profitability was affected by higher claims and increased operating expenses, with net income reaching EGP148m, down by 21% y-o-y.

Sarwa Life recorded a 49% y-o-y increase in GWPs to EGP1.88bn, while Sarwa Insurance posted a 42% y-o-y increase to EGP1.45bn, highlighting the growing contribution of insurance within Contact’s integrated financial services ecosystem.
