Buffett-Fit: 73/100
P&C insurers earn through underwriting profit + float returns. The Buffett model: write disciplined risks (combined ratio under 100), invest the float at higher returns than the cost of capital. Combined ratio history + sustained book-value-per-share growth are the quality screens. Catastrophe exposure is the cycle risk.
