New Underwriting Workers’ Compensation Industry Rankings

On Behalf of | Jul 20, 2015 | Firm News

Injured workers who have been denied benefits by Travelers, The Hartford, AIG, Liberty Mutual, and Berkshire Hathaway will be pleased to know those five insurance carriers are industry leaders in writing premiums for employers. Travelers has received $3,840,000,000 premium dollars (a 52.4% changes since 2009; The Hartford $3,012,000,000 (a 28% change since 2009). AIG and Liberty Mutual have lost market share but Berkshire Hathaway at $1,742,000,000 has increased its market share by 408.5%. Berkshire Hathaway and Travelers are among the insurance carriers that have posted the highest underwriting profits in the last five years.

Profits for workers’ compensation insurance carriers over the last five years have been significant, as has been reported in my prior blogs. This news is small consolation for injured workers whose benefits continue to decline.
