Insights

The estimated $250-300 million pre-tax loss from Hurricane Milton represents a manageable impact for Chubb, given its robust balance sheet and $113 billion market capitalization. The loss figures fall within typical catastrophe loss expectations for a major insurer during hurricane season. The company's diversified business model across commercial, personal and reinsurance operations helps distribute the risk impact.

The effective tax rate applied to these losses (approximately 17%) aligns with industry standards. The inclusion of reinstatement premiums in the calculation indicates proper risk management practices, as these premiums will help restore coverage levels. While significant, these losses are unlikely to materially impact Chubb's overall financial strength or ratings, representing less than 1% of its market value.
