In the week to 10 October the FTSE All Share rose 0.9% vs. +2.6% for the Insurance Index and +1.6% for the Lloyd’s Index as loss sizes became clearer. The best performer was Hiscox (+2.3%); Helios (0%) and JLT (0.8%) were the worst performers. We look at the latest catastrophe loss estimates for Q3 but note 2017 is not yet done, with Hurricane Nate making landfall last week and ferocious wildfires in California. Increasingly, talk is of rate rises vs. ‘stability’ previously.
