 The Council's Market Index Surveys

 

The Council regularly asks its members to provide up-to-date information on pricing trends, underwriting practices and availability for its two Market Index Surveys - one covering the p/c sector quarterly, and one specifically for the benefits sector biannually. The surveys track market trends on a region-by-region basis and break out the market for small, medium and large accounts. Open-ended questions allow opportunities for member commentary on existing market conditions and pricing practices and forecast trends.

The Council's surveys are the most authoritative source for financial analysts, news media, policymakers and consumers interested in market trends. Click on the links below for the most recent surveys, or
