Aug 21 (Reuters) - Dutch insurer ASR Nederland
 ASRNL.AS  reported a 47% jump in its half-year operating result
on Wednesday, driven by growth across its business segments and
the contribution from recently acquired Aegon Nederland.
    Its operating earnings rose to 677 million euros ($753
million) in the first half of 2024, from 460 million in the same
period last year.
    The group said it was on track to achieve its 2024-2026
financial targets which it raised in late June.
