Upcoming Earnings Season Critical for Insights on U.S. Insurance Industry

As we head into another earnings season, the U.S. insurance industry is poised to gain crucial insights from the performance of key players such as Progressive Insurance and Travelers. Progressive Insurance is set to disclose figures on auto insurance loss ratios and policy growth, important indicators of the sector's health and profitability.
