Insurance (property/casualty)

Article Abstract:

The 1998 property and casualty insurance industry will be affected by decreasing earnings. Flat and lower premiums, single-digit investment income comparisons and smaller margins will continue through 1998, resulting in flat earnings by 1999. Investors should remain wary and focus on specialty insurers such as Ace Ltd., Fremont General, and Markel Corp.
