Bound to be some profit taking but this is a hold as the 2nd half promises to be very useful.

Well run with the main man having a stake in it and his name on the company. Every impetus to make it perform to the satisfaction of shareholders.

the reinsurance cycle has some strong underpinnings

the risk-on competition from global investment banks and hedge funds
has evaporated (funny that) and capacity elsewhere constrained by
regulatory attacks on capital rules. This is a good point in the
cyclde for Caitlyn - enjoy

Well, without some catastrophe, the 2nd half may help light some fireworks as it is highly likely to improve further. Certainly they look healthy to me at this point. A strong hold and possible buy on any weakness going forward.

Not being expert in the field, I hesitate to say more than they look good to me. Would have been surprising if the Investment Return had not fallen, but with strong underpinnings in asset growth, and operationally with a 86% combined ratio, the divi increase shows confidence and seems well supported.

For the future, who knows what the investment side will be able to provide, and it's routinely a fingers crossed against catastrophies business, but I'm happy enough. The small rise, prior to news coverage, seems to show agreement!

Morning All

Results out, any thoughts?



Stephen Catlin, Chief Executive of Catlin Group Limited, said:
"Catlin produced excellent financial results for the first six months of 2012, including a record underwriting contribution and strong profits before tax. Our business continues to grow, with the London/UK underwriting hub producing meaningful growth for the first time in five years along with a good performance from the rest of the business.

"The rating environment continues to be favourable, as average weighted premium rates across the portfolio increased by 5 per cent during the first half of 2012. Rates for catastrophe-exposed business classes continue to increase, and we are seeing positive momentum for other classes, including US Casualty business. Catlin's focus on underwriting discipline and flexible capital structure puts us in a solid position to take advantage of opportunities as they arise in the second half of the year and beyond."

Catlin To Expand Contingency Insurance Business

Catlin Group Limited : Simon Lyons Joins Catlin As Contingency Class Underwriter.

HAMILTON, Bermuda - Catlin Group Limited ('CGL'; London Stock Exchange), the international specialty property/casualty insurer and reinsurer, announces that Simon Lyons has joined Catlin in London as a class underwriter specialising in contingency insurance.

Simon Lyons has more than 20 years of experience in the insurance industry, specialising as a contingency insurance underwriter. He most recently was a contingency underwriter at Sportscover Syndicate 3334 at Lloyd's.

Catlin has underwritten contingency insurance for many years with a focus on film and event cancellation coverage for trade shows, sport and entertainment events.

Nicolas Burkinshaw, active underwriter of the Catlin Syndicate at Lloyd's (Syndicate 2003), said:

"I am delighted to welcome Simon Lyons to Catlin. Catlin intends to expand its contingency account as this is a niche class of business that complements other products in the Group's portfolio. We believe that Simon is well-placed to help Catlin differentiate itself in this specialty."

Trend is up. Lots of blocks in place for future growth and the simple forward ook was dsicreetly very positive. Buy and Hold.

Also - conservatively run. Market shocks will have less of an impact.

Just hope for no serial or parallel catastrophes. But if there are, like Japan, there aren't too many hiding plces anyway.

Engineering companies - no clue. Insurance, not much better but I know any catastrophic disaster is big news and we all then know that rates will firm. Apart from the Costa ship going sideways up, not a lot more has happened so the figures were going to be good - but then everyone knew that. So it's a good first reaction then normal business with its up a bit down a bit pattern..
