From the supplier: The property and casualty insurance industry reported a 77.8% decrease in profits for Jan-Jun 1994, mostly due to $10.3 billion in catastrophe-related losses. Insurers probably will increase premium rates slowly and be more cautious for their underwriting. However, many insurance companies believe that profits for the first six months of 1994 were fine, not counting the catastrophe losses. Over $7 billion of the losses is attributed to the Jan 1994 Northridge, CA, earthquake.
