Yes Securities Report
ICICI Lombard General Insurance Company Ltd.'s net premiums earned grew by 4.5% QoQ, driven by health (including personal accident) and motor segments.
The motor own damage loss ratio was 73.6%, up 70 bps QoQ as pricing discipline has not, as of yet, returned. In any case, the strategy has been to increase focus on high loss ratio but low sourcing cost motor OD business. The company expects motor OD pricing discipline to come back this year.
The motor third party loss ratio was 73.9%, down 440 bps QoQ, as rate hikes helped. Management stated that the rate hike is not in line with claims inflation. However, if the courts begin to adopt six-month limit under the motor vehicle rules, it would be a positive.
Overall health, travel and PA loss ratio for the quarter was 73.7%, down 290 bps QoQ. Within this, the retail Indemnity loss ratio was 78% due to high non-Covid claim intimations and ICICI Lombard will observe Q2 FY23 before it is able to understand whether it is a case of claims bunching up or something structural.
