• | The combined ratio of 93.7% decreased 1.8 points due to lower catastrophe losses (2.6 points) and a lower underlying combined ratio (0.8 points), partially offset by lower net favorable prior year reserve development (1.6 points).The decrease in net favorable prior year reserve development primarily reflects the recent enactment of legislation by New York State, as discussed below. |
• | The underlying combined ratio of 91.6% decreased 0.8 points, net of a 0.6 point increase related to a new Underlying Property Aggregate Catastrophe Excess-of-Loss Reinsurance Treaty entered into effective January 1, 2019. See below for further details by segment. |
• | Catastrophe losses primarily resulted from winter storms and wind storms in several regions of the U.S. |

• | The combined ratio of 98.1% increased 0.6 points due to net unfavorable prior year reserve development in the current quarter as compared to net favorable prior year reserve development in the prior year quarter (2.5 points), partially offset by lower catastrophe losses (1.4 points) and a lower underlying combined ratio (0.5 points). |
• | The underlying combined ratio of 95.0% decreased 0.5 points driven by a lower expense ratio, partially offset by a higher underlying loss ratio. The decrease in the expense ratio was primarily due to a higher level of earned premiums as well as a benefit this quarter related to a state assessment, partially offset by the impact of the new catastrophe reinsurance treaty. The increase in the underlying loss ratio was driven primarily by (1) a small number of large losses in the International business, (2) the impact in the quarter of higher loss estimates in commercial automobile consistent with the re-estimates recorded in the fourth quarter of 2018 and (3) the impact of the new catastrophe reinsurance treaty, partially offset by (4) lower non-catastrophe weather-related losses. The new catastrophe reinsurance treaty resulted in a 0.5 point increase in the underlying combined ratio. |
• | Net unfavorable prior year reserve development resulted from an increase in general liability reserves, for years prior to 2009, due to the enactment by New York State of the Child Victims Act (“CVA”) on February 14, |
