RDN's Underwriting Discipline Key to Navigating Softer Pricing
Radian Group (RDN) is navigating softer specialty insurance pricing following its February 2026 acquisition of Inigo, which significantly expanded its specialty insurance and reinsurance exposure. The company is prioritizing risk-adjusted profitability and selective capital deployment over premium growth to mitigate margin pressure. While RDN's underwriting discipline and analytics capabilities should help maintain profitability, the stock trades at a discount to peers with a forward P/B of 0.99X versus industry average of 2.67X, though analyst estimates have declined recently.
