What to look at in Insurance
Insurers earn in 2 ways: underwriting well (combined ratio) and investing the float. Buffett built Berkshire that way.
- Op Margin 5y (Combined Ratio proxy) — Combined ratio proxy when our data does not include it. ≥10% 5y average = underwriting discipline (CR <100%)
- Book Value / Share growth — How Buffett measures Berkshire. The real value shareholders accumulate
- Debt / Equity — Leveraged insurers fail fast under catastrophes
- P/B (Price / Book) — Insurers are valued by book multiple. Here it is crossed with ROE (quality × valuation)
- Dividend growth streak — Consecutive years raising dividend per share — solid insurers stack decades
