UK-based RSA has issued a bulletin following “the wettest June on record in the UK.” RSA said it expects a “net loss across the Group’s UK Household, Motor and Commercial Property portfolios from last month’s [June] adverse weather” of around 拢40 million [$62.5 million]. “Current expectations are that the impact of the continued rainfall experienced to date in July will be around 拢10 million [$15.63 million].”
In addition RSA said the “net loss to the Group in relation to the two earthquakes in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy in May is estimated to be around 拢35 million [$54.71 million].”
On a more positive note the bulletin pointed out that “RSA continues to deliver a strong underwriting performance across its diversified international portfolio. However, reflecting the impact of the above events and assuming a more normal level of weather losses in the second half, the combined operating ratio for the full year 2012 is now expected to be better than 96 percent.”
