Three Things to Like:

1. Net Premiums Earned Drive Additional Growth Opportunities

Insurers sell policies then use reinsurance (insurance for insurance companies) to protect themselves from large losses. Net premiums earned are therefore what's collected from selling policies less what’s paid to reinsurers as a risk mitigation tool.

Chubb’s net premiums earned has grown at a 9.1% annualized rate over the last two years, a step above the broader insurance industry and in line with its total revenue.
