Workers’ compensation was one of the most popular markets to look for in 2011. Rates in this segment firmed overall throughout the year though some states still saw some slight decreases. While carriers are still bullish on the segment overall and looking to write business, monoline excess coverage capacity is tight.

Trucking was another hot topic in 2011. This is intriguing in that trucking is often a leading metric for economic activity and could portend brighter things for the economy in general.
