WARREN, N.J., Jan. 8, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- The Chubb Corporation (NYSE: CB) expects that its fourth quarter 2015 financial results will be announced on Tuesday, January 26, 2016 after the close of the market. The press release and financial supplement will be available shortly thereafter on Chubb's website at www.chubb.com.

As previously disclosed, on June 30, 2015, Chubb entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with ACE Limited, under which ACE has agreed to acquire Chubb. Completion of the transaction is subject to the satisfaction of a number of closing conditions, including the receipt of required regulatory approvals in several jurisdictions.
