July P&C Composite Rate Steady, Transportation Increases

Posted on by

The property and casualty composite rate for July was the same as June’s rate, which was minus 1%, MarketScout reported today, adding that insurers are working to stop the downward trend.

“While insurers continue to grant minor rating concessions, many are pushing for an end to any further rate reductions,” Richard Kerr, CEO of MarketScout said in a statement. In the transportation sector, however, pricing is increasing “on all but the very best accounts. The poor loss experience in transportation has prompted underwriters to demand rate increases and restrict underwriting appetite.” Insureds that are unable to convinceBarometer underwriters they can control losses are left with few options “and ultimately end up paying a much higher rate/premium which impacts their profit margins,” he said.

Kerr continued that insurance buyers in the transportation industry are complaining about the lack of cooperation they are seeing from insurers as they try to manage their risk portfolio. “Business owners and corporate CEOs are concerned their insurance premiums will be larger than what was budgeted therefore negatively impacting net profits,” he said.

He advised these insureds to “allocate capital towards implementing loss control and companywide safety programs. That is how they will get cooperation from their insurers.”

A comparison of June 2016 to July 2016 rates by coverage classification reveals that workers compensation and property coverages were the most aggressively priced at minus 2%. Business interruption, business owners policies (BOP), fiduciary and directors & officers all moderated by moving rates from minus 1% to flat, or no increase. Professional liability rates moved from down 2% to down 1%. Rates for all other coverages were unchanged.

Coastal property may experience some slight rate increases since we are on the cusp of the wind season. Rates on all other exposures should continue to be quite competitive.”

When measuring rates by coverage classification, automobile coverage was up to plus 2%. Rates for all other coverages remained the same. Business owners policies (BOP), professional liability and D&O coverages decreased in April 2015 by 1% compared to March 2015, according to MarketScout, an insurance distribution and underwriting company.
