Moody's: US workers' compensation insurers face challenges from weak employment, profitability
New York, December 20, 2012 -- US workers' compensation (WC) insurers face challenges on multiple fronts including long-term structural changes in US labor markets, the sustained low interest rates which may continue to counteract the broad improvement in WC premium rates, and medical claims trends which will increase the uncertainty in WC loss reserve estimates, says Moody's Investors Service in "US Workers' Compensation Market: Sector Profile."
