Best’s Market Segment Report: AM Best Maintains Italy Non-Life Outlook at Stable
A new Best’s Market Segment Report, titled, “Market Segment Outlook: Italy Non-Life,” also cites the fact that Italy’s non-life insurance companies’ balance sheets are generally less sensitive to changes in credit spreads (i.e., compared with life insurers) due to the shorter duration of investment portfolios.
The report notes these positive factors are partially moderated by the expected economic downturn, which is likely to halt the expansion of the segment, especially in non-motor lines, and asset devaluations and ongoing volatility across all asset classes driven by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
