If you ask 10 chief investment officers (CIO) at major insurance companies to explain their investment strategies and concerns, you’ll hear silence.
Executive Summary
Chief investment officers for the P/C insurance industry have to maintain a delicate balance between risk and return. Just don't expect them to talk about it.That’s because in a world of intellectual property and trade secrets, many companies consider their investment strategies somewhat of a restricted area. Understandably, no CIO wants to reveal their exact approach or devalue their own efforts by sharing how they get the returns they do. It seems a simple conversation around it is taboo.
