The strong earnings of the firm are attracting investor attention because, per a report by news agency Reuters, insurance spending has remained resilient, as businesses and individuals prioritize coverage to protect against risks. This has helped insurers attract and retain customers, despite rising costs for policies. However, increased frequency of severe weather events such as hurricanes, wildfires and other natural calamities are eating into profit margins, leading to a hike in premium prices.
