Analysing an insurance company's CSR allows you to gauge its efficiency and ability to fulfil claims promptly. An insurer with a strong track record of maintaining a high CSR is considered more reliable and trustworthy. It is also important to examine their CSR track record over the past few years to ensure consistent performance.
