On October 31st, the Financial Services Group at Aon published the Pricing Index for Public D&O insurance for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The pricing index tracks premium changes relative to the base year of 2001.
The Pricing Index decreased to 1.57 from 1.96 in the prior-year quarter, the second quarterly decrease since Q4 2017. The average cost of $1 million in limits decreased 19.9 percent compared to the prior-year quarter.
However, the Q3 2022 results were significantly impacted by a very large IPO client that purchased a multi-year program in Q3 2021, and as such, was not in the current quarter. Excluding this client, the Pricing Index decreased 14.7 percent in Q3 2022.
