What a nightmare - having to figure out the reserves on this book. But wouldn't a better pricing matrix be in line with this change as well? LGIC is known in offering substantially lower market rates in trucking, which explains this mess and why this happened. Keeping these same pricing structures doesn't make much more sense going forward, right? The fronting charges on State National deals can't be cheap, so how is a turn-around even likely? I guess I just don't get it! Good luck!
