Steve, a rise in the combined ratio is not a good thing - the lower the better!

[sawadee3] 09/2/2012 12:18

Have these in my ISA/SIPP along with other high divi yielders. Looking lively again today.

Results were good - actually profitable, despite plenty of disasters this year, and premiums rising. Combined ratio of 102% was up strongly from last year. All good stuff, and the dividend up is the icing on the cake.

Cheers,
Steve.

Does anyoone know when divi info will be made public ?

[timtom2] 02/2/2012 18:47

What do you understand?

Looks like the market has for tooo long misunderstood the value here and a re-rating is underway.

[jammy00] 02/2/2012 16:21

the Concordia claim disaster

market severely underpriced total loss risk
I understand

[timtom2] 01/2/2012 21:12

Yes - juicy dividend & management working to benefit of shareholders.

[pillion] 01/2/2012 14:42

Any indications out there of what to expect from this company ?

[jammy00] 11/12/2011 16:20

steady on not asking for much?!!!

me I am happy if this does not trade downwards but stays steady
and pays a divi

[timtom2] 10/12/2011 18:40

Need to break through 420p and stay up there for a while for it to become a new base.

[jammy00] 09/12/2011 16:51

that Nov 24 investor presentation
seems to have had a positive result

[timtom2] 25/11/2011 18:44

Think that is a good move.
Don't want to ttempt fate but even in this market the upchannel looks intact with higher lows.

[rogerbridge] 25/11/2011 16:21

Looks like we shall have to rely on the German vote bringing some sort of stability,but I agree that all bets are off if it all goes pear shaped.We can but hope.!!!!

I have read the risk management section of the
results stateents - its clear there are firewalls
but as we are finding with the Euro is a real
Financial Tsunami eventually the firewalls give way
ao there are risks and since they are deep
residuals they are very difficult to price.

[pip_uk] 29/9/2011 09:15

Ideal time to buy then.
You know what Warren Buffet said.....Buy when everyone is scared... or something like that.Catlin to set great store in protecting capital which is comforting.

[pip_uk] 28/9/2011 12:58

Showing some strong movement in the last few days and their quarterly statement is not toooo bad considering the general state of everything...
I decided I would park some of my dwindling cash here.
After all the dividend is quite attractive and they do set out to increase it year by year.

Sitting on the bottom of the three year uptrend channel. A big break thru this would not be good.
