    Doo,

    The high AUD does affect the EPS in the short term but to counter this, Qbe has been buying mainly US & European insurance companies and taking advantage of the currency situation.

    More so, the latest acquisiton of Balboa should settle in the next few months (USD$700 million) which will be paid for in AUD from the underwritten DRP/BSP program so in the long run when the AUD does normalize, Qbe's acquisition would like like even better value.
