Risk factors and legal proceedings
The risks SELECTIVE INSURANCE GROUP INC names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Feb 9, 2026: 19 risks under these headings, as written.5
- Risks Related to our Insurance Operations
- We are subject to losses from catastrophic events.
- Natural catastrophes
- Human-made catastrophes
- Cyber Attacks and Incidents
- Our loss and loss expense reserves may not adequately cover actual losses and expenses.
- Our ability to reduce our risk exposure depends on the availability and cost of reinsurance.
- We are exposed to credit risk.
- We depend on distribution partners.
- National and global economic conditions could adversely and materially affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, and growth.
- A downgrade or a potential downgrade in our financial strength or credit ratings could result in a loss of business and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
- Markets for insurance products and services are highly competitive and subject to rapid technological advancement, and we may struggle to compete effectively.
The other 11 risks
- We have less loss experience data than our larger competitors.
- We are subject to various modeling risks that could have a material adverse impact on our business results.
- Risks Related to Our Investments Segment
- Our investments are exposed to credit risk, interest rate fluctuation, and changes in value.
- We are subject to the risks inherent in investing in private limited partnerships.
- Determining the amount of credit losses taken on our investments is highly subjective and could materially impact our results of operations or our financial position.
- Risks Related to Evolving Laws, Regulations, and Public Policy Debates
- We are subject to complex and changing laws, regulations, and public policy debates that expose us to regulatory scrutiny, potential liabilities, increased costs, reputational harm, and other adverse effects on our business.
- We are engaged in ordinary, routine legal proceedings incidental to our insurance operations that are inherently unpredictable and could impact our reputation and/or have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations or cash flows in particular quarterly or annual periods.
- Risks Related to Our Corporate Structure and Governance
- We are a holding company, and our ability to declare dividends to our shareholders, pay indebtedness, and enter into affiliate transactions may be limited because our Insurance Subsidiaries are regulated.
- Because we are a New Jersey corporation and an insurance holding company, we may be less attractive to potential acquirers, and our common stock's value could be adversely affected.
- Risks Related to Our General Operations
- We, our distribution partners, and vendors are subject to attempted cyber-attacks and other cybersecurity and system availability risks.
- Operational leverage relies on the success of our risk management strategies, and their failure could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
Legal proceedings
We are routinely engaged in legal proceedings incidental to our insurance operations that have inherently unpredictable outcomes and could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations or cash flows in particular quarterly or annual periods. For additional information regarding our legal risks, refer to Item 1A. "Risk Factors." and Note 21. "Litigation" included in Item 8. "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data." of this Form 10-K. As of December 31, 2025, we have no material pending legal proceedings that could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
