THE INSURANCE PERFORMANCE MEASURE: BRINGING VALUE TO THE INSURANCE INDUSTRY
The performance of the property and casualty (P&C) insurance industry has suffered in recent years, even prior to the losses incurred in the tragic events of September 11th. Part of the industry's difficulties stems from its focus on premium generation, as measured by the combined or underwriting ratio, at the expense of overall operational performance. In this regard, the underwriting ratio is an incomplete measure of operating performance since it ignores two critical P&C operational functions: investment return and reinsurance results. 2002 Morgan Stanley.
