Demand for Insurance Continues To Be Impacted by Sluggish Economic Conditions, but the Benefits of Even Slow Growth Will Compound and
Gradually Benefit the Economy Broadly
Real GDP Growth (%)

was severe
The Q4:2008 decline was the steepest since the Q1:1982
drop of 6.8%
2013 is expected to see uneven growth,
then gradually accelerate throughout the year and into 2014

Consumer Sentiment Survey (1966 = 100)
January 2010 through May 2013

consumers, but improved substantially in late 2011 and in 2012
Source: University of Michigan; Insurance Information Institute
Optimism among consumers has remained fairly strong
despite tax hike, federal budget concerns. May’s reading was
the highest since July 2007

Car/Light Truck Sales Will Continue to Recover from the 2009 Low Point, Bolstering the Auto Insurer Growth and the Manufacturing Sector Along
With Workers Comp Exposures
New auto/light truck sales fell to the lowest level since the late 1960s. Forecast for 2013-14 is
still below 1999-2007 average of 17 million units, but a robust recovery is well underway.
Job growth and improved credit market conditions will boost auto sales in
2013 and beyond
Truck purchases by contractors are especially strong

approximately every 10 years (early 1990s, early
2000s and likely the early 2010s)
“Hard” markets tend to occur

Insurers Are Starting to See Meaningful Exposure Growth for the First Time Since 2005 Associated with Home Construction: Construction Risk Exposure,
Surety, Commercial Auto; Potent Driver of Workers Comp Exposure
New home starts plunged 72% from 2005-2009; A net
annual decline of 1.49 million units, lowest since records began
in 1959
Job growth, low inventories of existing homes, low mortgage
rates and demographics are stimulating new home construction
for the first time in years

Louisiana ranked as the 2nd most expensive state for homeowners insurance in 2010, with an average expenditure of $1,546.
(1) Based on the HO-3 homeowner package policy for owner-occupied dwellings, 1 to 4 family units. Provides “all risks” coverage (except those specifically excluded in the policy) on buildings and broad named-peril coverage on personal property, and is the most common package written.
(2) The Texas Department of Insurance developed home insurance policy forms that are similar but not identical to the standard forms. Note: Average premium=Premiums/exposure per house years. A house year is equal to 365 days of insured coverage for a single dwelling. The NAIC does not rank State Average Expenditures and does not endorse any conclusions drawn from this data.
(3) Policies written by Citizens Property Insurance (Louisiana), are not included. (4) Policies written by Citizens Property Insurance (Florida), are not included.
Note: Average premium=Premiums/exposure per house years. A house year is equal to 365 days of insured coverage for a single dwelling. The NAIC does not rank state average expenditures and does not endorse any conclusions drawn from this data.

Average thunderstorm
losses are up 7 fold since the early
1980s. The 5- year running average
loss is up sharply.
Hurricanes get all the headlines, but thunderstorms are consistent
producers of large scale loss. 2008-2012 are the most expensive
years on record.
Thunderstorm losses in 2012 totaled $14.9 billion, the 2nd
highest on record
