OLDWICK - JULY 02, 2019 10:44 AM (EDT) In July, Best’s Review’s annual Leaders Issue features an interview with Axa CEO Thomas Buberl, who reshaped the Paris-based insurer from a life/savings company to a property/casualty insurer with the acquisition of XL, while simultaneously reinventing himself.
Also in this issue:
“A Perfect Storm” reports on what’s fueling the record-high merger and acquisition activity in the broker sector and how it will impact the industry, with enhanced services for insurers and potentially higher premiums for insureds.
The annual “Top Global Insurance Brokers” ranking shows how recent mergers and acquisitions have transformed the insurance market landscape, with a new lineup in the top five companies and a debut in the top 20, based on 2018 total revenue.
“Standing the Test of Time” lists property/casualty and life/health insurers that have maintained a Best’s Financial Strength Rating of A or higher for at least 50 years and at least 75 years. A 120-year-old fire and casualty insurer joins the 75-year list.
