Recent news
most recent scored articles · the chip is the article’s score · click to openMarkel, the insurance arm of Markel Group, announced a collaboration with Midwest General Insurance Agency (a subsidiary of Acrisure) to expand its workers compensation insurance offerings in California.
Markel has partnered with the British Insurance Brokers' Association (BIBA) to launch an AI Academy, and BIBA members can now apply for the founding cohort.
Markel reported Q2 results showing resilience despite some volatility, with strong insurance and consumer segments offsetting financial division setbacks. Net investment income surged 11% in H1 FY2026, now comprising roughly half of adjusted earnings, while tangible book value per share grew 13-14% over the past five years and the stock trades near 20-year lows on price-to-book.
Markel has launched an e-trade broker portal that consolidates quotations, renewals, mid-term adjustments, client management, and claims into a single-login platform for brokers.
Markel Group's Q2 results showed revenue beating estimates at $4.02B but adjusted EPS missing by 35.3% at $19.79 vs $30.57 expected, driven by a $205M reserve charge from a unique credit loss in the State National business, the first such loss in over four decades. Despite improved core insurance underwriting and expense discipline, the market reacted sharply negatively.
