   1.                                                   Your response to prior
comment 1 appears to focus on the underlying businesses of your
                                                        insureds without
providing sufficient detail regarding the indirect consequences on your
                                                        operations and results.
Please discuss more fully the climate-related increased risk of loss
                                                        and damage and/or
increased number and amount of claims you have experienced to date
                                                        and expect to
experience in the future. In this regard, we note disclosure on pages 44 and
                                                        89-90 of your Form 10-K
that explains increasing losses as due to hurricanes, winter
                                                        storms, and wildfires,
as well as claims tables on pages 91-93 that appear to show
                                                        increases. In addition,
tell us how you considered disclosing such increases as an indirect
                                                        consequence of the
climate-related business trends described in your response.

2.       Your response indicates that you are "a digital financial services
organization" that
         conducts insurance operations through a digital technology platform,
yet it does not
         appear to discuss these digital operations in relation to our prior
comments 1 and
         2. Accordingly, please further address the following:

                Clarify whether your response that    our direct operations do
not produce material
              greenhouse gas emissions    takes into account the emissions
related to your digital
              technology platform, and provide support for your assessment of
materiality.

                Discuss whether and how your digital technology platform
relates to changes in
              demand and competition for products or services that result in
lower greenhouse gas
              emissions, are related to carbon-based energy sources, or are
operated using energy
              from alternative energy sources. Tell us how you considered
providing disclosure
              regarding other reputational risks, for instance in relation to
your digital operations or
              potential climate-related disruption thereof.

                Discuss the physical effects of climate change in relation to
your digital operations,
              including the potential for indirect weather-related impacts that
have affected or may
              affect your digital trading platform, related suppliers (e.g.,
third-party data
              centers, cloud service or electricity providers, and
infrastructure), and customers.
              Include support for your evaluation regarding the materiality of
such impacts.
3.       We note your response to prior comment 2 that    the cost has
generally increased for
         catastrophe-exposed reinsurance.    Please provide quantitative
information regarding the
         cost of reinsurance for each of the periods covered by your Form 10-K
and explain
         whether increased amounts are expected in future periods.
      Please contact Madeleine Joy Mateo at 202-551-3465 or Jennifer Angelini
at 202-551-
3047 with any questions.



                                                                 Sincerely,

                                                                 Division of
