Description: ERIE Erie Indemnity October 30, 2025
Erie Indemnity Company acts as the managing attorney-in-fact for policyholders of the Erie Insurance Exchange, delivering core insurance functions such as policy issuance, renewal, underwriting, claims processing, and a suite of sales-related services-including agent compensation, advertising support, and IT infrastructure. The firm, founded in 1925 and headquartered in Erie, Pennsylvania, operates within the U.S. Property & Casualty (P&C) market.
Recent performance metrics show a combined ratio of approximately 92% for the most recent fiscal year, indicating underwriting profitability, while the company’s return on equity (ROE) has hovered around 12%, outpacing the broader P&C industry average of roughly 9%.
Key economic drivers for Erie include the prevailing low-interest-rate environment, which compresses investment income for insurers, and the rising frequency of severe weather events that elevate catastrophe loss exposure. The firm’s disciplined underwriting and strong regional market share in the Midwest and Northeast help mitigate these risks.
