Description: AXS AXIS Capital Holdings November 04, 2025
AXIS Capital Holdings Ltd (NYSE:AXS) operates two primary businesses-Insurance and Reinsurance-delivering a broad suite of specialty coverages across Bermuda, the United States, and global markets. The Insurance segment focuses on professional liability (D&O, E&O, medical malpractice), property, marine, aviation, cyber, credit-political risk, and niche personal lines such as travel and pet insurance. The Reinsurance segment provides capacity for agriculture, catastrophe, motor, professional, life, and property-liability lines, among others.
Key performance indicators from the most recent fiscal year show a net written premium (NWP) of roughly $9.8 bn, a combined ratio of 94.5% (indicating underwriting profitability), and a return on equity (ROE) near 12%, which is modestly above the sector median of ~10%.
Sector-wide drivers that materially affect AXIS’s outlook include the cyclical nature of reinsurance pricing (hard vs. soft markets), the frequency and severity of natural catastrophes-particularly hurricanes in the U.S. Gulf and Atlantic regions-and the prevailing interest-rate environment, which influences investment income that often offsets underwriting results.
