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.

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, yield

remain low though short-

term yields have seen some gains

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Health Care ACA should be repealed & replaced Incremental Change

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.

Regulatory Issues Abound as Well, With Implications for Insurance Coverages

A driver for Uber is an employee, not a contractor, according to a California Ruling that eventually could push up costs ‘for the smartphone-based ride hailing service and hurt the closely watched start-up's valuation.

The California Labor Commissioner's decision could ripple through the burgeoning industry of providing services via smartphones, with potential implications for other “crowdsourced” services such as Uber rival Lyft, chore service Task Rabbit, and cleaning service Home joy.
