This article looks at insurance companies during the current financial crisis. While insurers as a group have cushioned rather than amplified the downward pressures during the financial crisis due to their relatively long-term investment horizons, some clearly have increased such pressures. Many of the financial instruments that were at the core of difficulties served an insurance function. Therefore it is not too surprising that some insurance companies have been affected by the crisis on one or the other side of their balance sheets, that is on the asset or the liability side.
