workers&#146; compensation industry remains attractive in terms of favorable loss trends and only slightly lower pricing. The high hazard market, in particular, continues to display stable economic conditions. Consequently, we remain cautiously
optimistic in the outlook for our niche markets in 2015.&#148; </P>
