Number of Years with Underwriting Profits

Underwriting Profits Were Common Before the 1980s (40 of the 60 Years Before 1980 Had Combined Ratios Below 100) –

But Then They Vanished. Not a Single Underwriting Profit Was Recorded in the 25 Years from 1979 Through 2003

2010:Q1 data includes $22.5B of

paid-in capital from a holding

company parent for one insurer’s

investment in a non-insurance

business .

The industry now has $1 of surplus for every $0.76 of NPW,close to the strongest claims-paying status in its history.

Drop due to near-record 2011 CAT losses

Recession2-Yr Yield10-Yr Yield

Yields on 10-Year U.S. Treasury Notes have been essentially

below 5% for more than a decade.

Since roughly 80% of P/C bond/cash investments are in 10-year or shorter durations, most P/C insurer portfolios will have low-yielding bonds for years to come.

Despite the Fed’s December 2015 rate hike, yields

remain low though short-

term yields have seen some gains;

Yield curve is flattening.

Slack in the U.S. economy and falling energy prices suggests that inflationary pressures should remain subdued for an extended

period of times

Annual Inflation Rates (%)

Inflation peaked at 5.6% in August 2008 on high energy and commodity crisis. The recession and the collapse of the

commodity bubble reduced inflationary pressures in 2009/10

Inflationary expectations have slipped

(due in part to falling energy

costs) allowing the Fed to

maintain low interest rates

Trump vs. Clinton:Issues that Matter to P/C Insurers

Issue Trump Clinton

Economy Supply Side-Like Philosophy:Lower taxesFaster real GDP

growth; Deficits likely grow as tax cuts are combined with targeted increased spending on Homeland Security, Defense, etc.

Keynesian Philosophy: More government spending on infrastructure, education, social services; Deficits likely increase as tax increases likely difficult to pass

Interest Rates May trend higher with larger deficits; Shift from monetary policy to fiscal focus (tax cuts, government spending)

Status quo at the Fed; Net impact on interest rates unclear

Taxes Favors lower tax rates for corporate and personal income tax rates; Tax code overhaul?

Unlikely to reduce taxes or embark on major overhaul of tax code

International Trade

Protectionist Tendencies (appeal primarily to manufacturing sector)

Has criticized Trans-PacificPartnership but is a realist on international matters

Tort System Doesn’t like trial lawyers butseems to like filing lawsuits

Status Quo

Health Care ACA should be repealed & replaced Incremental Change

The average expenditure on auto insurance now finally exceeds the pre-crisis high of

$842 recorded in 2004, taking a full decade to recover, but on an inflation-adjusted

basis premiums are still below 2004 levels

$ Billions Homeowners insurance NWP continues to rise (up 150% 2000-2015F) despite very little unit

growth during the real estate crash. Reasons include rate increases, especially in coastal

and resumption of home building activity

The Homeowners line will generate about

$4B in new premiums annually through 2016

New home starts plunged 72% from 2005-2009; A net

annual decline of 1.49 million units, lowest since records began

Auto/Light Truck Sales, 1999-2022F

New auto/light truck sales fell to the lowest level since the late 1960s. Forecast for 2014-15 is

still below 1999-2007 average of 17 million units, but a robust recovery is well underway.

Job growth and improved credit market conditions will boost auto sales in

2015 and beyond

Truck, SUV purchases are

especially strong

Yearly car/light truck sales will likely continue at current levels, in part replacing cars that were held onto in 2008-12. PP Auto premium

might grow by 3.5% - 5%.

Political Skepticism About the‘Gig’ Economy

"Many Americans are

making extra money renting

out a spare room, designing

a website ... even driving

their own car. This on

economy is creating

exciting opportunities and

unleashing innovation, but

it's also raising hard

questions about

workplace protections

and what a good job will

look like in the future."

Lemonade: Sour Words About Insurance

114

Daniel Schreiber here, with updates from Lemonade.

I’m thrilled to report that a few days ago, by unanimous vote of our board and shareholders, Lemonade became a Public Benefit Corporation, and was also awarded provisional ‘B-Corp’ certification. Both are firsts for an insurance carrier, and are points of tremendous pride for our team.

Rebuilding insurance as a social good, rather than a necessary evil, is now part of our legal mission. Our Chief Behavioral Officer, Professor Dan Ariely, says that “If you tried to create a system to bring out the worst in humans, it would look a lot like the insurance of today.” Working in partnership with nonprofits, and baking giving-back into our business model, holds the promise of a better insurance experience, and a more valuable insurance company.

In other news, I’m happy to say that we’re putting finishing touches on our product and will be ready to launch in New York within weeks. The final step is for us to get our license, and if all goes to plan, we’ll have that shortly. Be sure to follow us on Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn to stay in the know.

Until next time, Daniel@daschreiber

Direct Independent Agents

Independent agents steadily lost market share from the early 1980s through the early 2000s

across all P/C lines, made some games in the mid-2000s, but then lost share again in the late 2000s.

Loss rate has slowed in in the 2010s. Direct channels include exclusive agency companies, direct marketers and direct sales (e.g., internet)
