Specialty insurance rates declined significantly in 2025 and continued to soften in early 2026 renewals, retreating to pricing levels last seen in 2020, according to Willis Towers Watson's Specialty Insurance Marketplace Survey. This faster-than-expected rate softening affected about 75% of major insurance classes, notably in Property, Energy, Marine, Financial Institutions, and Professional Liability sectors, driven by benign catastrophe experience and changing claims trends. However, General Liability and Medical Malpractice markets showed counter-cyclical behavior due to concerns over social inflation and litigation risks. The survey highlights rapid market shifts and provides insurers with detailed data to better manage pricing and risk strategies going forward.
