The third quarter reflected a continuation of our strategy of growing where we can do so profitably and contracting elsewhere, with a heavy emphasis on improving underwriting performance. This is reflected in net written premium growth of 7% year-to-date with a 99.7% combined ratio a 2.3 point reduction over the prior year, said David H. Long, Liberty Mutual Insurance Chairman and CEO. While severe storm activity was milder than the prior year, our combined ratio decline was driven by improved core underwriting results. <\/p>\n
