Aviva stock (GB00BPQY8M80) is facing a higher analyst target after RBC Capital Markets lifted its valuation to GBp 790.00 from GBp 780.00 on October 23, 2026, as Yahoo Finance reported. The last euro quote stood at EUR 8.55 at Tradegate on October 23, 2026 at 4:37 p.m. CEST.
RBC raises its valuation target
RBC retained its Outperform rating while increasing the target by GBp 10.00. Against Aviva's London price of GBp 711.20 on October 23, 2026 at 4:51 p.m. BST, the new target lies 11.08 percent above the share price.
The same report identified a counter-factor: higher catastrophe losses in Canada led RBC to cut its 2026 Canadian insurance operating profit forecast by 20.00 percent. RBC reduced its group operating profit forecast for 2026 from GBP 2.57 billion to GBP 2.48 billion.
Wealth profit target reaches GBP 500.0 million
Aviva's Wealth business provides the second investor reference point. In a company briefing dated October 16, 2026, Aviva said it was on track for GBP 280.0 million of operating profit by 2027 and expected more than GBP 500.0 million by 2032.
That ambition gives the valuation debate a longer operating horizon, while the latest London quote remained below the 52-week high of GBp 740.60. The 52-week low was GBp 590.60, and the market capitalization was GBP 21.3 billion on October 23, 2026.

Aviva's interim dividend was GBp 14.00, with payment made on October 15, 2026. The company lists its third-quarter 2026 trading update for November 13, 2026, according to its investor calendar at Aviva.
