Alpha comment
It has unfortunately become an all too regular pattern that we report a deterioration on the next to close open year forecast, being now 2021, for 386, due to shortfalls on the reserves of the prior years. This is despite considerable re-reserving undertaken over the last couple of years. It gives us little comfort that the 2022 year is reporting an improvement allegedly due to an improved large loss experience.
