P/C Insurers Going Strong for First Half of 2010

Posted on by

It seems the P/C market continues to rally. The Insurance Information Institute (III) issued a release stating that private U.S. property/casualty insurers’ net income after taxes rose to $16.5 billion in the first half of 2010 — up from billion in the first half of 2009.

“Property/casualty insurers’ positive results for first-half 2010 are yet another testament to the conservative investment strategies and superior risk management that enabled insurers to emerge from the financial crisis and great recession essentially unscathed,” said David Sampson, PCI’s president and CEO. “Combining insurers’ $530.5 billion in policyholders’ surplus as of June 30 with their 6.

1 billion in loss and loss adjustment expense reserves and their $202.3 billion in unearned premium reserves, insurers had nearly $1.3 trillion on hand to pay claims and meet other contingencies — up from $1.2 trillion at June 30, 2009. This means we can all be confident that insurers have the financial resources to fulfill their obligations to policyholders when catastrophes strike.”

It’s not all good news, however. Insurers’ net losses on underwriting grew to $5.1 billion for the first half of this year, compared to .

We must take good or optimistic financial news for this industry with a grain of salt. There are still many challenges facing P/C insurers, including the excruciatingly slow pace of the economic recovery and fierce competition in the commercial insurance markets.

Lloyd’s TSB Bank Tops UK Complaints List

Posted on by

The UK’s Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) acts as a middleman to help settle disputes between consumers and UK-based businesses providing financial services, such as banks and insurance companies. Every six months, the FOS publishes its complaints data and, according to the figures released yesterday, there was a sizable increase in the number of complaints in the first six months of 2010.

From January 1 to June 30th of this year, there were 84,212 new complaints made about financial businesses operating in the UK. This is an increase of 2,076 from the last six month period of 2009.

The highest number of complaints in the insurance category were attributed to the following companies:

  1. Lloyd’s TSB Bank 8474
  2. Barclays Bank 2205
  3. Black Horse 1876
  4. Welcome Financial Services 1608
  5. Bank of Scotland 1548
  6. The Royal Bank of Scotland 1499
  7. HSBC Bank 1344
  8. Clydesdale Bank 1302
  9. National Westminster Bank 1027
  10. Santander UK Plc 977
  11. Capital One Bank 843
  12. Eisis 582
  13. Aviva 580
  14. AXA 532
  15. Direct Line 478
  16. HFC Bank 463
  17. MBNA Europe Bank 457
  18. Royal & Sun Alliance 452
  19. St Andrew’s Insurance 425
  20. UK Insurance 386

The FOS works to resolve every complaint that is filed and, on average, they resolve 70% of all general insurance complaints — complaints which are resolved in favor of the consumer.

AIG Branches Out Big Time in China

Posted on by

The Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC), the world’s largest bank in terms of market capitalization, has teamed up with AIA Ltd, AIG’s Asian life insurance unit, to have ICBC sell AIA products at its branches. A good move for AIG, seeing as “China is the world’s sixth-largest life insurance market, with about $96 billion in total premiums collected in 2008.”

“AIA will work jointly with ICBC in areas such as sales and marketing system, product innovation, service quality, technological advancement and sustainable profitability,” Tucker added.

That’s not the only thing AIG’s Asian unit has going for it.

AIA Ltd is planning an IPO for sometime next month. As for now, the Hong Kong listing committee is in the process of approving the IPO application. Once approved, the IPO could raise close to $15 billion — some of which will be used to pay back AIG’s $182 billion taxpayer bailout. The insurance giant is seeking a September 21st approval.

How FEMA Assesses Storm Damage

Posted on by

The below video from FEMA isn’t going to win any awards for riveting film-making, but it does give some nice, brief insight into what governmental “damage assessment” teams do in the hours and days after a storm. (via FEMA)

Here’s one quote: “What we do in the meeting is pretty much discuss strategies of going out, how we’re going to do preliminary assessments—basically just do logistics and also strategic planning,” says Joe Stanton, FEMA’s North Carolina public assistance section manager. “The team effort basically is between the state and FEMA. We have individuals working together … to get the figures and also the damages together so we don’t miss anything.”
