Insurers earn revenue three ways. The core insurance business itself, often called underwriting and represented in the income statement as premiums earned, is one way. Investment income from investing the \u201cfloat\u201d (premiums collected upfront not yet paid out as claims) in assets such as fixed-income assets and equities is the second way. Fees from various sources such as policy administration, annuities, or other value-added services is the third.<\/p>\n
Over the last five years, Erie Indemnity grew its revenue at a solid 9.9% compounded annual growth rate. Its growth surpassed the average insurance company and shows its offerings resonate with customers.<\/p>\n
