33 Origins of Pricing Pressure Arising from (Near) Record CAT Activity +10% to +20%* Non-Loss Affected: +5% Loss-Affected: +10% to +15%** Retrocessional Reinsurance markets (reinsurance for reinsurance companies) are pushing pressure through the reinsurance markets and into both commercial and personal lines 0% to +5% *Some programs above and below this range. **Higher end of range applies to loss-affected accounts.

38 Hard Markets: Conclusion & Implications for 2018 Low ROE is the best predictor of a hard market (likely around 4% in 2017), but does this mean a hard market is a sure thing? No but some correction is possible Surplus in 2017 was nearly flat to slightly up Capacity remains generally abundant and seems likely to grow not drop due to asset value growth, implying that a true hard market is unlikely to develop as a result of depleted capacity CAT Losses: 2017 was one of the worst years on record for cat losses implying a hard market but this predictor does not appear to be an accurate one, at least in isolation Greatest impacts are driven through property cat reinsurance and retro markets on loss impacted areas and accounts

86 Trumponomics, Insurance and Politics How Might the Trump Presidency Impact the Insurance Industry? 97

87 Trumponomics: The Essential Elements 5 Elements Tax Reform Deregulation Infrastructure Investment Healthcare Fair Trade Immigration Reform/Enforcement Most of these have direct impacts for insurers 98

88 Tax Reform and More Tax Reform Could Have Could Favorably Impact the Insurance Industry 99

89 Tax Reform Implications for P/C Insurers and Reinsurers Reduction of Corporate Tax Rate from 35% to 21%... All Insurers Benefit But Not Equally Companies generating most of their profits from underwriting income previously taxed at 35% benefit the most Companies generating proportionately more of their Net Investment Income from (taxable) Corporate Bonds benefit more than companies with heavier muni holdings In P/C industry, insurers with underwriting losses tend to hold proportionately more in corporates Leveling the Playing Field: Domestic (re)insurers previously taxed at 35% will benefit relative to (re)insurers domiciled in Bermuda, etc. Diminished advantage for foreign-owned insurers that cede premium offshore 100

90 Tax Reform Implications for Select Industries All Industries Reduction in corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% is an unambiguous boost to virtually US corporations, including insurers Financial Services Tax bill is generally favorable Amplifies lightening of regulatory burden with scaling back of Dodd-Frank, FSOC SIFI designations, CFPB, Fiduciary Rule Manufacturing Immediate expensing of capital investments for next 5 years Energy: House bill repeals some energy tax credits, including on renewables; Senate preserves most energy credits 101

91 Tax Reform Implications for Select Industries Healthcare Hospitals and others upset about repeal of the ACA s individual mandate requirement CBO estimates that 15 million fewer people will be insured over time Providers argue they ll be stuck with the tab for uncompensated care for people who drop coverage but still seek care House bill would reduce the ability of many hospitals to float in tax-advantaged debt (Advanced Refunding Bonds) 102

92 Trump Administration: Likely Issues Impacting Insurers Infrastructure Spending Insurance industry could benefit from stepped-up infrastructure spending as promised by Trump Competition for federal dollars will be fierce Privatization of government infrastructure could provide growth opportunity for commercial insurers If infrastructure spending materializes, will benefit all major commercial lines: WC Commercial Property Commercial Liability Surety Commercial Auto 104
