Hiscox (ISIN BMG4593F1389) was trading at EUR 21.65 at Lang & Schwarz on October 6, 2026 at 2:11 p.m. CEST, down 1.05 percent versus the EUR 21.88 prior close on October 5, 2026. The move gives investors a clear same-day reference while the London-listed insurer remains between its current market levels.
October trading stays below the prior close
The Lang & Schwarz quote places Hiscox EUR 0.23 below its prior close, a decline calculated against the EUR 21.88 reference value. The daily move is separate from the London quotation, which is denominated in pence and follows its own exchange session.
At the primary listing, Hiscox was last at GBp 1,836.00 on October 6, 2026 at 1:18 p.m. BST. The same quote set gives a 52-week range of GBp 1,288.00 to GBp 1,966.44, leaving the share below its yearly high while remaining above its yearly low.
Interim results set the latest company marker
Hiscox identifies August 5, 2026 as the date for its 2026 interim results presentation and describes the outlook for 2026 as positive. The investor page also states that the group has over 3,000 staff across 13 countries and 31 offices.
The company operates across specialty insurance and reinsurance, with products ranging from small business and home insurance to insurance-linked securities. That breadth matters for interpreting the share price because Hiscox combines retail insurance with London Market and reinsurance activities rather than relying on one premium stream.
London listing keeps the benchmark in pence
Global Banking and Finance Review identifies Hiscox as HSX.L on the London Stock Exchange and assigns the company the ISIN BMG4593F1389. Its market page also lists an August 5, 2026 update on Hiscox lifting its annual retail growth forecast.
The finance quote places Hiscox market capitalization at GBP 5.9 billion on October 6, 2026. For investors comparing screens, the euro reference price, the pence-denominated London quote and the market value should be read as separate fields rather than combined into one daily performance figure.
Stock remains tied to the EUR 21.88 base
Hiscox stock was trading at EUR 21.65 at Lang & Schwarz on October 6, 2026 at 2:11 p.m. CEST, with the EUR 21.88 prior close dated October 5, 2026 and a daily change of minus 1.05 percent. The further course of trading is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of Hiscox stock.
