Mercury General ( (MCY) ) has shared an update.
On January 20, 2025, Mercury General Corporation announced additional details regarding the impact of the recent Southern California wildfires, known as the Palisades and Eaton fires, on its operations and reinsurance program. The company has mobilized its catastrophe loss team and has already paid $80 million to policyholders for living expenses and housing contents, with sufficient liquidity to handle the increased claims. Each wildfire has been designated as a separate event by the Property Claims Service, allowing Mercury to potentially use reinsurance limits of up to $1,290 million for the first event and $1,238 million for the second, implying significant financial management to cover the catastrophic losses.
