Hull runs red as it sails into 17th loss year

The hull market shows all the signs of being stuck in a deep rut

It has become an annual tradition for the chairman of IUMI’s Ocean Hull Committee to warn underwriters that the market is in the red for yet another year.

This year, the task falls to Lars Rhodin, managing director of the Swedish Club, who took over the chairmanship of the committee midterm.

Cefor Hull Claims Trends Update as of 30 June 2013:Claim frequency and cost back to pre Costa Concordia levels

Increasing risk exposure to high-value vessels• The claim frequency shows a positive to stable trend

after the peak in 2008. The frequency of total losses shows a long-term positive trend after some increase in 2012.

• The average repair cost, excluding total losses, reached in 2012 its lowest level since 2004.

• Some increase in 2013 is mainly due to two major losses in the first half year of 2013, which were no total losses.

• But despite a further decrease of insured value, the risk exposure to major losses remains high, due to an increasing share of high-value vessels in the portfolio.

TradeWinds article 18th September 2013

The Nordic Association of Marine Insurers

Underwriters admit to hull pricing problems.About three-quarters of underwriters believe hull insurance is priced significantly below the level that business models suggest is necessary.The International Union of Marine Insurance (IUMI) conference this week took advantage of electronic voting technology to run the first ever poll of delegates’ perception of the market.One-quarter voted that hull and machinery premiums were 50% below the level required.A further 48% said rates were 25% below the necessary price.And 15% voted that pricing was 10% too low.So 88% of those who voted acknowledge hull premiums are too low, but sadly there was no follow-up question on whether underwriters are minded to do anything about it.

Profiling Risk? “underwriters to price risk based on their overall portfolios.”

Are the Deductibles the solution?

• We have attached a spreadsheet that lists two vessel schedule and our rating suggestion \ target.

Our Reply• -----Original Message-----• From: Haakonsen, Mona GIS N• Sent: 2. april 2008 09:35• To: Peter Smart ;Basthus, Morten GIS N• Cc: Tony Ascot,• Subject: RE: Blue Shipping, Greece.

• Dear Peter,

• Reference is made to your e-mail earlier today.

• Regret to inform you that in respect of this account there is not much enthusiasm from our side. We used to write this account until 2005 when we were cut off without any explanation.

• We would also strongly suggest that you reapproach your Client and ask them about the following incidents:

• 28/10/06 Papa Jogger Maine Engine dmg USD 307.207• 11/10/05 Captain Sleeper Collision USD 202.280

• This Client seems eager to play games, changing brokers and withhold claims information and we do not want such Clients in our portfolio.

• Trust you can understand our position.

• Best regards,• Mona
