Insurance prices have escalated so quickly because of poor investments
Poast new message in this thread
Date: May 14th, 2024 9:23 PM Author: titillating claret stead Too many losses in the markets, especially fixed income markets. All insurance gets bundled together and reinsured and commoditized and traded around the world anyway. These companies are typically very conservative and made bad bets in the bond markets. With rising interest rates they are getting wrecked, so the whole world pays. The key is to own nothing. Insure nothing. Insurance is such a fucking racket. I hate the world. |

Date: May 14th, 2024 9:35 PM Author: titillating claret stead I don't work inside an insurance company, but I would bet dollars to doughnuts that underwriting is much more adversely affected by poor performance on investments than it is by loss records. Losses are nothing in insurance. Claims is literally a back office bullhsit function. |

They don’t want to buy worthless US government bonds but they don’t have a choice and if they did that would be the end of the dollar.

Date: May 14th, 2024 10:02 PM Author: talented milk step-uncle's house The good news for insurers is they are less fucked then regional banks and are benefiting from the retrenchment of regional banks from all manner of lending. Insurance lending in the CML space will be a 180 business once the office sector picture is resolved. They stole market share the banks will never get back. None of this is sexy business but it’s keeps a lot of bros in comfy $500k a year sinecures managing loan portfolios and doing annual reunderwriting work on billion dollar towers and pretending they are something more and better than some residential mortgage broker doing the same shit only with a few fewer zeroes on the term sheets.

Date: May 20th, 2024 6:30 PM Author: talented milk step-uncle's house What lay people don’t know about CML deals is most of those billion towers require annual reunderwriting. A bro like Trump has to prove up his ability to pay every 12-36 months. Nobody is just giving you a billion bucks for one property on a 30 year mortgage based on one point in time rent roll. The life of a Trump is constantly talking to your lenders. It sucks donkey balls IRL. He basically works for his banks. It’s why the litigation against him is so criminal. The banks review every single lease. They constantly look at his books. He’s basically a glorified property manager with some skin in the game.

Date: May 14th, 2024 9:51 PM Author: talented milk step-uncle's house It’s not really higher rates that are fucking up casualty players but the arrival of PE insurers stealing market share and raping on the reinsurance end.
The future of the industry is hybrid players who use the cash generation side of their insurance franchises to fund other businesses like PE/alts or wealth management franchises. If all you do is fling policies you are a dead duck. |

Date: May 14th, 2024 10:40 PM Author: talented milk step-uncle's house I never understood the whole fixed income loss thing because at the end of the day I’m a lawyer and not a mentally ill gambler/day trader. These are unrealized losses that can’t even be called book losses. It’s an opportunity cost and not a real book loss. Hold the bond to maturity and who gives a fuck what the notional NPV is? Absent a black swan event you don’t need that capital today. Lot of hot air over nothing which the market understands just fine since this shit hasn’t dented a single finance stock.
