Hey, thanks. He traveled across the state noting the damage to the state’s corn. Given your optimism on pricing, how do you think about your return potential in the next few years if sort of the cat levels over the last few years are more of a trend as opposed to an operation? Hi. I don't think this is a 1:1 rate change and then markets begin to return to a softening phase. As usual, I will divide my comments between our Property and Casualty segments.

The wind devastated the power grid, knocking out power for 800,000 people across the Midwest. After the derecho’s destruction, many were left homeless. This year, it is already clear that we are experiencing an especially active season for both wildfire and wind. These mark-to-market gains were predominantly in our fixed maturity and equity investment portfolio with equity gains driven by our strategic investment portfolio.

Our results were driven predominantly by natural catastrophe losses with little impact from COVID-19 losses in the quarter.

So I think in a market, yes, the reinsurer's always exposed to the negotiation with the cedent. Part of the reason for that is the retro market is extremely dislocated, which has a levered effect on how much reinsurance capacity reinsurers like to sell.
The government said it would approve the aid, but so far we have only received the approval of $45 million. On the West Coast, California wildfires have already consumed more than four million acres in 2020, which is more than double either 2017 or 2018, and has resulted in over 90 million metric tons of carbon dioxide being released into the atmosphere.

Market conditions continued to improve as the natural catastrophe activity of the quarter further restricts supply in an already unbalanced market. While there have always been natural cycles of variability in sea surface temperatures, we believe recent increases are primarily a product of climate change. And on those, we're developing them on our best estimate of the portfolios. Included in this operating loss is $322 million of net negative impact resulting from Q3 2020 large loss events. The replay can be accessed by dialing (855) 859-2056 U.S. toll-free or one (404) 537-3406 internationally. It's an ongoing pandemic event, and it's something that we're going to continue to need to monitor. It's important to recognize, however, that for the most part, these processes remain at an early stage. I want to take a minute to discuss capital deployment opportunities.

My first question, Kevin, on -- I was hoping to get a little bit more color on your specific pricing outlook for January one in terms of both what you would expect in the U.S., Europe as well as in the retro markets.

Because it’s not called a tornado or hurricane the federal government isn’t calling it a disaster.”. The derecho shelf cloud engulfs Mike Campbell in Sioux City, Iowa. Great.

IOWA STATE TROOPER'S RADAR RECORDS WINDS TOPPING 90 MPH DURING DERECHO IN MIDWEST. This has obvious implications for ILS investors. Kevin?

Annualized operating return on average common equity was negative 7.7%, with the loss primarily driven by the Q3 2020 large loss events.

[Operator Instructions] Please be advised that today's conference is being recorded.

Farmers with non-insurable crops who suffer crop losses or lower yields may be eligible for help under USDA’s Noninsured Crop Disaster Assistance Program if the losses were due to natural disasters. Let me work on something. The overall combined ratio for the Property segment was 140%, with property catastrophe and other property reporting combined ratios of 159% and 113%, respectively. And when you look at various cedents in the Casualty markets who might be interested in sending you business, what is your sense of the -- of their reserve adequacy? And from a reinsurance perspective, we want to provide capacity to allow that for that protection to be available. I mean, thinking that, one, we've had a lot of frequency of events do you think that one increase demand? “There was no time to prepare for this.”.

Authorities said the cleanup efforts wouldn’t be done anytime soon.

So while our results for the third quarter reflect an elevated level of activity, these are risks that we fully understand and are paid to take. To gain a true competitive advantage, this insight must be accurately reflected in the cat models used to price risk.

It wrote some structure deals, some aggregates and some retro.

Calls reporting fires increased as people burned candles and cooked over flames. The Carson King Foundation and Iowa Love are selling t-shirts to raise money.

What’s more, communication was a struggle. I will point out that if you look at the ACE Index and think about the frequency of moderate storms that we've experienced this way, and then you compare it to 2004, the ACE Index would indicate that there was a lot more energy created from the storms of 2004. It just depends on which balance sheet we choose to put it in or which vehicle we choose to put it in. Do you feel that pricing is adequate? And I am proud of the role we play helping people when they need it most. A derecho is an inland category 2-3 hurricane blowing between 100-130 mph. So I'm optimistic long term about the market. But many others may be without service until their power is restored, a process that could still take days. Approximately half of this gain is an accounting adjustment for the prior quarter related to the Tokio Millennium Re integration. Our focus on superior risk selection should prove increasingly valuable as the combination of historically low interest rates, the Q3 2020 large loss events and material trapped capital put additional upward pressure on reinsurance rates.
So it's a more complicated conversation.

Yes.

I think we are a long way from understanding the impact of the virus and the shutdowns. Formation is certainly high.
