Sure.

An insurance company monitors its performance on a spread basis, evaluating both investment performance and operating expenses against desired results. It uses financial pricing models like CAPM or DCF to target a rate of return.

The discount rate used must incorporate internal and external risk factors affecting the company, which, in turn, determines the risk premium required over the risk-free rate.
(The risk free rate is yield on government debt.)

In a deteriorating credit environment i.e. in the US, the asset base in which these bermudian insurers are denominated, the spread on the risk free rate increases.

Hope that helps :)

LK can you elaborate on the 'spread on the risk free rate' cheers.

[liquidkid] 02/7/2007 10:37

This is nothing to do with wind, it's the spread on the risk free rate.

Other than hurrticane seasons downward pressure on the sp, can anyone offer opinion on the lowly share price action, within a matter of weeks weve come down from 330p+ to the 270's, almost a 20% fluctuation on a FTSE 250 co. without any co. specific news?

When does Hurricane season come to an end Paddy?

[paddyfool] 29/6/2007 10:46

once the hurricane season comes to an end this will head towards £4, In the meantime I expect it to drift.

[relishing] 29/6/2007 10:15

I guess not.

[relishing] 28/6/2007 11:29

Time to go long big time?

[nabeel4975] 25/6/2007 18:27

Yes, it was going down, about to reverse at 280p ;-)

[pricemilne5] 25/6/2007 09:08

Does anyone know what's going on with this share?

[pricemilne5] 04/6/2007 20:11

yes 7.8p & 8p.

[holts] 04/6/2007 08:02

Should we have received a total of 15p with the divi payment just received ? I seem only to have the 8p special.
