Introduction
Sources of risk financing continue to proliferate. During soft market cycles, many insurance buyers are tempted to regard contingent capital as a commodity.
Caveat emptor: all capital is not alike.

Factors that Will Influence the Length and Depth of the Cycle
•
Capacity: Rapid surplus growth in recent years has left the industry with
between $85 billion and $100 billion in excess capital, according to analysts
All else equal, rising capital leads to greater price competition and a liberalization of terms and conditions
•
Reserves: Reserves are in the best shape (in terms of adequacy) in decades, which could extend the depth and length of the cycle
•
Investment Gains: With sharp declines in stock prices and falling interest rates, portfolio yields are certain to fall Contributes to discipline

More Factors that Will Influence the Length and Depth of the Cycle
•
Sarbanes-Oxley: Presumably SOX will lead to better and more conservative management of company finances, including rapid recognition of deficient or redundant reserves
•
Ratings Agencies: Focus on Cycle Management; Quicker to downgrade
•
Finite Reinsurance: Less Commonly used
•
Information Systems: Management has more and better tools that allow faster adjustments to price, underwriting and changing market conditions than it had during previous soft markets
•
Analysts/Investors: Less fixated on growth, more on ROE through soft mkt.

Different Risk Categories■
Risk due to catastrophic events or risks mandated by law for coverage (Workers’
Comp.)
Recommended Mitigation – Buy insurance coverage to protect asset value
■
Risks that the business can manage or create natural hedges within the organization
Recommended Mitigation – Manage internally■
Risks that are non-core such as weather risk
Recommended Mitigation - Identify the cost of risk and decide whether to retain the risk or transfer
■
