The Allstate Corporation (NYSE: ALL) today announced fourth
quarter estimated catastrophe losses, prior year reserve
reestimates and implemented rates.
Allstate’s estimated catastrophe losses were below the $150
million reporting threshold for December 2023. Total catastrophe
losses for the fourth quarter were $68 million, pre-tax.
Unfavorable prior year reserve reestimates, excluding
catastrophes, totaled $199 million in the fourth quarter, with
approximately $148 million related to personal auto, including
costs for claims in litigation.
During the month of December, the Allstate brand implemented
auto rate increases of 16.5% across 15 locations, resulting in
total brand premium impact of 5.0%, which includes the rate
increases approved in December by the Departments of Insurance in
California, New York and New Jersey.
“Allstate continued to make progress on our comprehensive plan
to improve profitability. In 2023, rate increases for Allstate
brand auto insurance resulted in a premium impact of 16.4%, which
are expected to raise annualized written premiums by approximately
$4.27 billion, and rate increases for Allstate brand homeowners
insurance have resulted in a premium impact of 11.3%, which are
expected to raise annualized written premiums by approximately
$1.16 billion,” said Jess Merten, Chief Financial Officer of The
