Executive Summary
- Premium registered January to August 2021 was $6.1 billion for companies on the LASLI and $2.1 billion for companies not on the LASLI (Lloyd’s $1.3 billion). Premiums from LASLI and Non-LASLI companies increased by 12.0% and 15.1%, respectively, compared to the same period in 2020. Non-LASLI companies with a large California presence are monitored, but do not undergo the extensive financial review as LASLI companies.
- All LASLI Insurers with a Financial Strength Rating from AM Best are rated A- (excellent) or better. One notable rating action recently occurred. James River Insurance Company’s financial strength rating was affirmed and the rating outlook on the rating was revised to stable from negative. The change in outlook reflected the announced loss portfolio transfer that the company entered into for their commercial auto business.
- Total number of LASLI companies stands at 130, an increase of two from December 31, 2020.
- Several companies applying for the LASLI are in the pipeline—two are currently with the California Department of Insurance (CDI), five are being reviewed by the SLA, and one additional application is pending a seasoning determination by CDI. Potential lines of business identified by the applicants include Homeowners, Earthquake, Commercial Auto, Inland Marine, and closure/post closure coverage.
- Multiple merger and acquisitions deals have been completed in 2021 including two acquisitions of LASLI Insurers by private equity investors. ProSight Global, Inc. (Gotham Insurance Company) was acquired by TowerBrook Capital Partners LP and Further Global Capital Management and Vault E&S Insurance Company was acquired by Cornell Capital and Hudson Structured Capital Management.
- Statutory financial results for the US LASLI Insurers and Applicants for the first half of 2021 showed improved profitability with an aggregate underwriting gain of $195.7 million.
- Berkshire Hathaway group continued to be the largest insurance group for premiums registered by the SLA in 2021. Premiums registered from by the SLA for Berkshire Hathaway Companies were almost twice as much as the next largest group, Markel Corporation. However, nationwide Berkshire Hathaway and American International Group Inc. controlled very similar shares of surplus market during the second quarter of 2021. According to Standard & Poor’s, Berkshire Hathaway wrote $1.145 billion of direct written premiums, compared to AIG’s $1.143 billion.

Premium Registered By AM BEST Financial Strength Rating Year-To-Date 2021 (January through August)
Chart excludes premiums in suspense and other premiums that are not allocated to a company.
- Overall credit quality of rated LASLI companies is strong with AM Best financial strength rating of Excellent or stronger. As a % of premium registered by AM Best financial strength rating, credit quality of LASLI companies is somewhat stronger than Total (All Companies with premiums registered). Berkshire Hathaway, Chubb, and Tokio Marine are the largest A++ operating groups by premium registered for the last five years.
- Lloyd’s syndicates, including those with missing or invalid syndicate numbers, wrote $1.3 billion (15.7%) of 2021 year-to-date premium and fees registered, making it the largest portion of the Non-LASLI category. All Lloyd’s syndicates reflect the Lloyd’s market AM Best financial strength rating of A.
- Insurers with B++ ratings wrote $16.7 million (0.2%) of 2021 year-to-date premium registered and consisted of Knight Specialty Insurance Company (Knight Specialty) and Conifer Insurance Company (Conifer). Both are non-LASLI companies.
- Knight Specialty’s ($12.8 million premium registered) rating was affirmed in January 2021 and reflects Knight Specialty’s operating and process enhancements instituted by its management team, which have resulted in steadily improving operating performance and significantly reduced adverse prior year loss reserve development. The company has strengthened the monitoring and control of its general agent partners and third part adjusters in claims settling and enhanced its underwriting guidelines, which have contributed to the turnaround. While operating performance has shown improvement, the potential for volatility remains as open claims from terminated programs are settled and active programs mature. Volatility may also result from elevated common stock leverage relative to the industry.
- Conifer’s ($3.9 million premium registered) rating was affirmed in February 2021 and has a stable outlook. AM Best expects that the group’s business profile, focusing on its niche lines expertise, should generate sustainable underwriting and operating results such that minor volatility from any future adverse development will not materially impact capital adequacy in the negative. The group has spent the past two to three years exiting nearly all the segments that significantly underperformed management’s optimistic profitability expectations.

1 AMB financial strength ratings, actions, and outlook/implication per AM Best as of 9/27/2021. Ratings “under review” have a “u” indicator after the rating. Rating is for the AMB rating unit that includes the LASLI company.
2 Ultimate parent as of 9/27/2021.
3 Premiums registered through 8/31/2021.
In addition to a financial strength rating, AM Best includes a rating outlook (stable, negative, or positive) indicating the potential future direction of the rating over an intermediate term (about 36 months). For ratings that are under review, the potential future direction is called a rating implication (negative, developing, and positive) and the forward-looking timeframe is more near-term (typically 6 months).
Stable Outlook (97.3% of 2021 YTD Premium Registered)
Most groups have AM Best ratings with a stable outlook, with most ratings affirmed stable (95.9% of 2021 YTD premium registered). James River Group Holdings, Ltd./James River Insurance Company (A-): Outlook was revised to stable from negative to reflect the additional protection afforded to the group’s balance sheet strength following the implementation of a loss portfolio transfer on the commercial auto line. Previously this line has had recurring adverse reserve development in recent quarters. The loss portfolio transfer helps reduce uncertainty and mitigates the potential for ongoing adverse reserve development.
Negative Outlook/Implication (0.4% of 2021 YTD Premium Registered)
Several groups and their respective LASLI companies have negative outlooks or implications on their financial strength ratings. The percentage of premium written by insurers with a negative outlook or implication decreased to 1.8% of 2021 YTD registered premium compared to 6.5% of 2020 registered premium.
- One Group and their respective LASLI company with an affirmed ratings and negative outlooks:
- United States Fire Group Inc./Mercer Insurance Company (A): Downward trend in recent underwriting performance, stemming from numerous catastrophe events as well as reserve strengthening in the commercial auto liability line in 2019. While the group is executing on an enterprise-wide strategic plan to improve operation and financial performance, it faces execution risk due to competitive market conditions and ongoing exposure to catastrophe events.
- One group and its respective LASLI company with negative implications as rating being under review:
- Watford Holdings Ltd./Watford Specialty Insurance Company (A- u): Significant exposure to investment losses stemming mostly from its non-investment grade bond portfolio, which is subject to significant unrealized losses if credit spreads widen. However, Watford continues to take steps to lower the risk profile on its investment portfolio, and could benefit by a proposed merger transaction with Arch Capital Group Ltd.
Developing Implication (1.4% of 2021 YTD Premium Registered)
- Groups and their respective LASLI companies with their ratings under review with developing implications:
- Hallmark Financial Services, Inc./Hallmark Specialty Insurance Company (A- u): Rating placed under review following the announcement of a planned IPO of the specialty commercial business. Hallmark Financial Services plans to offer a noncontrolling ownership stake in the core business of its specialty commercial business segment. The ratings are expected to remain under review until AM Best can assess the ultimate organization structure of the group and its risk-adjusted capital position.
- Core Specialty Insurance Holdings, Inc./StarStone Specialty Insurance Company (A- u): Rating place under reviewing following the announced planned merger agreement with Lancer Insurance Group. The status reflects the potential execution risks associated with the two group’s merging, the need to fully assess the financial and operational impacts of the merger, offset by the potential synergies recognized from this transaction. AM Best does not anticipate positive rating movement at the immediate close of the merger, however the diversification of the business profile and the fortified management team could favorably impact rating dynamics as the new combined business model matures.
Positive Outlook/Implication (0.7% of YTD 2021 Premium Registered)
- Groups and their respective LASLI insurers with a positive outlook on their financial strength ratings which were affirmed:
- Selective Insurance Group/Mesa Underwriters Specialty Insurance Company (A): Reflects improved profitability over the past five years on an absolute basis and relative to its peers.
- Auto-Owners Insurance Company/Atlantic Casualty Insurance Company (A): Reflects improved underwriting performance in recent years, consistently favorable reserve development and increased efficiencies through investments in technology.

Hot Topics – Developing
- LASLI Insurer Financials: Statutory financials for the US LASLI Insurers and Applicants for the first half of 2021 show strong growth compared to the prior year. Direct premiums written increased by 25.6% for the period compared to the same period in 2020, with 87.4% having an increase and only 12.6% having a decrease in direct writings. This growth outpaced the growth in the overall P&C market which saw net premiums written increase by 7%. Capital also increased by 5.9% compared to year-end 2020, with 81% of the insurers having an increase.
Profitability was a key factor in the growth of capital, with the LASLI Insurers and Applicants reporting almost $1.2 billion in net income for the first half of 2021. The majority of the income was from investments and other income, the aggregate underwriting gain was $195.7 million. However, this was a significant improvement compared to a gain of $11.0 million for the same period in 2020.
- Lloyd’s Syndicates: For 2020 the Lloyd’s Syndicates collectively reported an underwriting loss of £2.7 billion and a combined ratio of 110.3%. Lloyd’s introduced its Decile 10 initiative to address deteriorating underwriting performance in 2018.
