A property/casualty insurer must maintain a certain level of surplus to underwrite risks. This financial cushion is known as 鈥渃apacity.鈥 When the industry is hit by high losses, such as a major hurricane, capacity is diminished. It can be restored by increases in net income, favorable investment returns, reinsuring more risk, and/or raising additional capital.
