Allstate Corp at William Blair Growth Stock Conference Transcript

The following is excerpted from the question-and-answer section of the transcript.

Question: Adam Klauber - William Blair - Analyst : Great, overview about a bunch of initiatives. Can we dive into one of the growth pillars is you've done a lot of work in digital and you've really come up in your digital capability. So I guess one, how important is digital to growing your platform? And two, from a technology standpoint, what have you done in the last three, four, five years to upgrade your digital capability.

Question: Adam Klauber - William Blair - Analyst : Another (technical difficulty) growth or strategic actioning, and you change the commission structure for your agents to incent growth. I guess when did you do that? And there's been a lot of dislocation, as you mentioned, but are you starting to see more seeds? Is that driving more growth within the agency, the captive agent platform?

Question: Adam Klauber - William Blair - Analyst : Great. But more of I guess, macro industry question, a lot of investors, I get this question all the time that there is a nice groundswell, there's a lot of pricing power in the industry today, no one can really predict when that pricing power will add but from an investor standpoint, what are the signs that they can look for saying, okay, maybe the industry doesn't have as much pricing power in 6 months, 12 months, two years. What type of things should they be look for for a gauge and pricing power in auto specifically?

Question: Adam Klauber - William Blair - Analyst : That's the decision. Thank you.
