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

Insurers Are Starting to See Meaningful Exposure Growth for the First Time Since 2005 Associated with Home Construction: Construction Risk Exposure,
Surety, Commercial Auto; Potent Driver of Workers Comp Exposure
New home starts plunged 72% from 2005-2009; A net
annual decline of 1.49 million units, lowest since records began
in 1959
Job growth, low inventories of existing homes, low mortgage
rates and demographics are stimulating new home construction
for the first time in years

Yields on 30-Year mortgages have been below 6% for a five
years
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.
Yields on 10-Year U.S. Treasury Notes plunged to all time record lows in early 2013 but are now
rising as the Fed considers tapering its QE program

Yields on 10-Year U.S. Treasury Notes have been essentially below 5% for a full 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.

Treasury yield curve remains near its most depressed level in
at least 45 years. Investment income is falling as a result. If as Fed I “tapers” rates are unlikely
to return to pre-crisis levels anytime soon
The Fed Is Actively Signaling that it Is Determined to Keep Rates Low Until Unemployment Drops Below 6.5% or Until Inflation Expectations
Exceed 2.5%; Low Rates Add to Pricing Pressure for Insurers.
