Aviva (AV): news on Saturday 3 October 2026
+1.7 slightly positive
Coverage was mostly about Aviva's campaign against ghost broking fraud and its response to Ofcom's advertising reforms, which reflects well on it. A small pension buy-in win and a Moderate Buy analyst consensus helped, while another executive departure and a share price decline weighed slightly.
