AMSTERDAM - Dutch life insurer and pension provider Aegon NV Thursday reported a 43% rise in second quarter net profit, largely as a result of investment gains and lower impairments.

Aegon, which gets most of its earnings from the U.S., said net profit was EUR343 million ($458 million), up from EUR240 million in the same period a year earlier. Underlying profit, which strips out investment results and other volatile items, was EUR514 million, a 7% rise compared with last year.

The Dutch company said it will propose to pay shareholders an interim dividend of EUR0.11 a share.

Like other European insurers, Aegon is shoring up its balance sheet and boosting its capital base as it prepares for the implementation of the so-called Solvency II regime. The company has divested EUR2.4 billion worth of assets since 2010 and is currently considering the sale of assets in Canada and France.
