ZURICH--Zurich Insurance Group AG (ZURN.VX) Thursday said it aims to boost profitability in some of its businesses over the coming three years, but will consider selling those that underperform.

"We recognize we are very strong in some areas but we lack scale or profitability in others," chief executive officer Martin Senn said in a statement Thursday, ahead of an investor day presentation.

It will review its portfolio of businesses, improving the profitability of some while either turning around or exiting those that are underperforming, Mr. Senn said.

The Swiss insurer reiterated that it remains on track to achieve some, but not all, of its targets set for 2010-2013.
