Peer Comparison Reports - Standard Reports

Use the Comparison and Composite Reports to benchmark an insurer’s performance against that of other companies or a peer group composite. Peer Comparison Reports enable you to compare several companies at a time. All reports except the Composite (Annual and Quarterly) have been updated to include summations. Report availability is based on subscription status.

Note:  Since all comparison reports require more than one company, summations need to be in a custom list in order to be selected for a report. Individual summations under the Summations node cannot be used in these reports and will automatically be moved to the Unavailable tab.
