0812 GMT - ASR Nederland robust first-half results are likely to drive consensus upgrades, JP Morgan analysts write in a note. The Dutch insurance group's operating results came in 10% ahead of consensus expectations and 6% above the U.S. bank's own estimates, with outperformance across all business segments, they say. The U.S bank anticipates consensus upgrades of around 2% to 3%, including both the positive impact of favorable weather conditions on its nonlife segment and the potential durability of an improved life investment margin. Shares are up 0.4% at 61.32 euros.(najat.kantouar@wsj.com)
