Underwriting discipline in soft vs hard markets

Article by Sesilia Nkoshi, Underwriting and Reinsurance Manager, Old Mutual Short-Term Insurance, Old Mutual Namibia

Insurance tends to move in cycles. There are periods where there is plenty of capacity in the market, pricing is competitive, and business is easier to place. Then there are periods where things tighten, premiums increase, and terms become stricter. Most people refer to these as soft and hard markets.

In a soft market, competition is usually high. Insurers are trying to grow, and that can create pressure. Pricing comes down, and there is often more flexibility around terms and conditions. On the surface, it feels like a healthy market. But this is also where underwriting discipline can quietly slip.

It does not happen all at once. It is often small decisions over time. Risks that are priced a bit too low. Assumptions that are not fully tested. Business that is written because it feels necessary to stay competitive. At the time, it may seem manageable. The reality normally only shows later, when claims start coming through and the margins are thinner than expected.

In a hard market, the environment changes. Pricing improves, and there is more room to be selective. Underwriters can take a step back and apply judgement more firmly. That part is needed, especially after a period of softer conditions.

But even here, there is a balance. It is easy to become too rigid or to push too hard. Relationships built over time can be strained if decisions feel inconsistent or overly aggressive. And when the cycle shifts again, those decisions tend to come back.

What tends to work better is consistency. Not treating soft and hard markets as completely different environments but rather keeping the same approach to risk throughout. Understanding what you are writing, pricing it as fairly as possible, and being clear about what fits and what does not.

The cycle itself will always be there. That is part of how the industry works. The part that makes the difference over time is whether discipline holds, even when the pressure changes.

The retirement crisis no one talks about

Article by Isaack Veii, Head of Distribution and Retention, Corporate Segment, Old Mutual Namibia

There is a decision many people make without fully appreciating its long-term impact.

It often happens when you change jobs. The new opportunity is exciting, your salary may be higher, and the future looks promising. Then you are asked what you want to do with your retirement savings. For many people, taking the cash seems like the natural choice.

After all, the money is available now. It can help pay off debt, cover expenses, fund personal goals, or provide financial relief during a time of transition. In that moment, a lump sum in your bank account can feel far more valuable than money set aside for a retirement that may still be decades away. The challenge is that the real cost is often invisible.

When retirement savings are withdrawn, it is not only the amount on the statement that is lost. It is also the years of future growth that money could have generated. What feels like a short-term financial gain today can translate into significantly less income and financial security in retirement.

This is one of the major contributors to the retirement crisis facing many working individuals. Most people do not fail to save because they do not care about retirement. In fact, most understand its importance. The difficulty is that immediate needs and responsibilities often compete with long-term goals. School fees, household expenses, debt repayments and unexpected emergencies demand attention today, while retirement feels distant and less urgent.

Of course, life does not always go according to plan. Retrenchment, medical emergencies and other unforeseen events may require access to retirement savings. These situations are real and sometimes unavoidable. However, even in difficult circumstances, it is important to consider the long-term consequences before withdrawing the full amount.

This is where preservation becomes important.

Preservation simply means keeping all or part of your retirement savings invested when changing jobs by transferring them tax-free, to another retirement product. The process is generally straightforward. The challenge is not administration. It is choosing future financial security over immediate access to cash.

A few thousand Namibian Dollars spent today may be quickly forgotten. The same amount preserved and left invested can make a meaningful difference to the income you depend on in retirement. Every dollar preserved remains working for your future self.

Ultimately, retirement outcomes are shaped not by one decision at the end of your career, but by the choices made throughout it. What you do with your retirement savings when changing jobs may be one of the most important of those choices.
