U.S. insurers are benefiting as macroeconomic uncertainty and recession fears promote spending on risk-mitigating offerings by households and businesses. The insurer reported a pre-tax catastrophe loss of $164 million, net of reinsurance and reinstatement premiums. Gross premiums written rose 1.1% from a year earlier to $4.81 billion in the quarter ended December 31. The insurer’s net investment income jumped more than 7% to $434 million. The company reported losses and loss adjustment expenses of $2.28 billion, compared with $2.38 billion a year earlier. Profit available to common shareholders was $1.2 billion, or $3.35 per share, for the reported quarter, compared with $925 million, or $2.42 per share, a year earlier. Arch reported a combined ratio of 80.6%, compared with 85% a year earlier. A ratio below 100% indicates the insurer earned more in premiums than it paid out in claims.
