Gallagher Re #Reinsurance Market Report: Results for Full-Year 2023. Following exceptionally strong profitability in 2023, reinsurers have now fully recouped for weaker profits in 2017-2020. Global #reinsurance dedicated capital totalled $729 billion at full year 2023, a rise of 12% versus the restated full year 2022 base. Growth was driven by both the INDEX companies and non-life alternative capital. Gallagher Re's in-depth analysis of a subset of 16 reinsurers shows the reported combined ratio improved to 88.9% (2022 FY: 94.6%). The underlying combined ratio also continued to improve, to 96% (2022 FY: 98.5%). James Vickers Michael van Wegen https://lnkd.in/epYt5KFd

Blake Evans-Pritchard was present at the Monte Carlo Rendez-Vous de Septembre this week. https://lnkd.in/gcfMfMXq His biggest takeaways from speaking and listening to industry practitioners ahead of the 1/1 renewals?: - Rates are likely to remain relatively flat, with downward pressure on them in certain areas. - But there are likely to be some complexities in negotiations, such as what a fair price of risk is and where attachment points should sit. - Reinsurers insist they need to focus on long-term stability rather than too much risk-taking, which caused problems in the past. - Reinsurers remain cautious about where their newly-won capital should be deployed. - However, as long as the price and conditions are right, reinsurers stand ready to unlock new capacity – and that could benefit Asia. Read Evans-Pritchard's reflections on this year's edition of RVS, which includes perspectives from MAPFRE RE's Javier San Basilio, Guy Carpenter's Tony Gallagher, and Munich Re's Scott Hawkins: https://lnkd.in/gcfMfMXq #Insurance #Reinsurance #RVS2024

🚀 Report from the 273rd AGM of The Society of Lloyd's! 🚀 A couple of months back, I had the opportunity to ask a pressing question about the future of capital from private investors in the insurance market. I was thrilled with the detailed response from Burkhard Keese, CFO. Here's a summary: 👉 𝐂𝐚𝐩𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬: Lloyd’s aims to increase capital from Names to 20%, but currently, it stands at around 6%. 👉 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬: The past year's successes are not enough to attract new capital; regulations and political barriers also pose significant hurdles. 👉 𝐈𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬: Introduction of a modified freehold agreement, aiming to balance the interests of managing agents and investors [I believe this point was a discrete nod to the Hampden Agencies Limited / Fidelis Insurance Group Syndicate 3123 transaction]. Big thanks to Burkhard for shedding light on these crucial issues and for the continued efforts to make Lloyd's a more competitive market for private investors. Let's continue working together to drive innovation and growth in the market! 💼💡 #LloydsAGM #InsuranceMarket #PrivateCapital #Innovation #Growth

🌐 Big news in the reinsurance world! AM Best has shifted the global reinsurance segment from a stable to a positive outlook. 📈 Despite a slowdown in rate increases, reinsurers are boasting "robust profit margins" that have propelled this optimistic shift. After a spree of "drastic repricing," enhanced attachment points, and tightened terms, the reinsurance industry's profits are soaring. 🚀 The key here isn't soaring rates but steadfast discipline. Underwriting remains rigorous, with profit margins that can withstand greater losses than we've recently seen. Demand for coverage keeps climbing amid the rise in natural disasters and prevailing economic uncertainties. 💡 The report is in—2023 marked the third consecutive year of positive underwriting results, with some players seeing combined ratios below 90.0 and ROEs smashing the 20% ceiling. 🏆 While 2022 had its bumps with investment losses, higher reinvestment rates have smoothed the path for a promising 2024. Let's not forget, no market thrives without a degree of challenge. Losses like the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse have dented Q1 2024 loss ratios but failed to undermine stellar ROEs and underwriting margins. 👏 What about new market entrants, you ask? Surprisingly, none have significantly disrupted the game, allowing seasoned players to sustain discipline and recover from prior year losses—a testament to the resilience and robustness of the reinsurance market. 🔍 This is not just a blip but a trend supported by a slower reduction in interest rates, hinting at strong short-term returns. While the exceptional ROEs of 2023 may be tough to repeat, reinsurers are all set to double down on their underwriting discipline. 💼 No time to rest on laurels, though—the future beckons with the necessity for balance. Reinsurers must price risks adequetly while staying relevant amidst geopolitical, climate, and technological upheavals. The stage is set for an industry that's both resilient and forward-looking. 🌟 #Reinsurance #RiskManagement #FinancialOutlook #insurance #insuranceindustry

Key chart for me from the Gallagher Re 2023 #reinsurance report, out today. It is harder to measure demand for reinsurance than available capital. The darker line shows premiums ceded to reinsurers divided by reinsurers' capital; the lighter line modelling agency Verisk's average annual cat loss estimate ($133bn as of 2023, up from $123bn a year earlier) over reinsurers' capital (ie cat losses in an 'average' year were c.18% of reinsurance capital in 2023, down from c.19% in 2022). Neither is a perfect measure, but both suggest that capital increased by more than demand last year, which would be consistent with flattish April renewals reported last week - link to April report below. Gallagher Re concludes that the industry could absorb nearly double the average level of cat losses and still produce an above-WACC return. Social inflation, Specialty losses and interest rates provide plenty of other variables, in my view, while actual nat cats will always be the real wild card. https://lnkd.in/ePbfAu_N https://lnkd.in/ed_zuSqe
