“We much appreciate the fair and solid assessment of our company that AM Best carried out to come to the final verdict. For us it is a valuable opinion putting us in line with our parent company – GIC Re – holding the same B++ by AM Best. Though being a reinsurance start-up the rating reflects our robust balance sheet and strongest capitalization, both forming a ground for active and sustainable development. At the door of upcoming January renewals this news is very important for us as a new domestic reinsurer!»
