Along the lines of what Jan said, I think large punitive awards hurt abusive carriers, but also faltering investments hurt the carriers asset base and they try and recoup by raising rates.

: Hi, I am carrying out a piece of research through university at the reasons behind failing insurers. I know you can look at the financial aspect, and i have done that. However i would like to observe the underlying reason why they have failed. Does anyone hold opinions on this, or have any relevant materials they could email me. I would be very grateful.
