Amending ALM: An Enterprise Solution for Insurer Risk Management – General ReView
The underlying requirement of Enterprise capital return and risk management is a culture of governance, accountability and risk awareness.

History – Reflections
Placing today’s financial market valuations in historical perspective makes clear that there are few or no bargains around. Interest rates are unsustainably low, and equities have recovered to fair value. From such levels it appears that unfortunately the best returns over the typical horizons of one to five years are likely to come from manic market behavior rather than patience.

Investment Profiles: 2008 P&C/Life Holdings – GeneralReView
Despite the tumult of the 2008 capital markets, most insurers' investments were not so severely impacted. The greatest sources of losses were equity holdings, a large portion due to affiliated company valuations. Fixed income write-downs, in particular as a percent of assets, were quite small. Of greater interest is mortality and annuity companies' fixed income durations continue to trail those of non-life companies.
