ALU Survey Group

The Survey Group's mission is to poll underwriters on topical areas of interest using current technology.  Results of these inquiries are then shared with the study participants and the industry.

Underwriting Audits - 2013

A survey was conducted in Feb. 2013 to identify common practices for internal underwriting audit programs.    The goal of the ALU survey is to:
- Support quality assessment in our underwriting profession
- Identify common industry practices so leaders can benchmark their own program
- Further industry insights and knowledge 

Over 100 companies from the US and Canada responded, with representation from direct carriers, reinsurers, retrocessionaires and providers of underwriting services.  Please click the link below to view a summary of the study.
