Arch Delivers Superior Results with Lower Volatility
Arch's playbook is built on the DNA of a specialty insurance powerhouse. Our operating principles are:
FOCUS ON SPECIALTY
INSURANCE BUSINESS
- We focus on commercial lines where our underwriting expertise enhances risk selection and returns.
- Examples of specialty lines include:
- Insurance: Professional and Excess and Surplus (E&S) are more difficult and require deeper expertise to generate adequate, through-the-cycle returns.
- Reinsurance: Sophisticated modeling and portfolio construction can mitigate volatile property catastrophe returns.
- Mortgage: Innovative pricing and risk models drive performance.
MANAGE
THE CYCLE
- Our executive and underwriting teams are compensated on long-term profitability, not just generating new premium.
- We allocate capital to the lines of business with the best relative opportunity for risk-adjusted returns.
- Simple in concept, difficult to execute. Successful insurers write more business when opportunities are good and less when conditions deteriorate.
EFFECTIVELY
ALLOCATE CAPITAL
- When excess capital exists, we deploy according to the below priorities:
- Reinvest into our business.
- Reduce financial leverage.
- Return excess capital to shareholders via buybacks and dividends.
