AM Best Affirms Credit Ratings of Aseguradora General, S.A.
BUSINESS WIRE)-- AM Best has affirmed the Financial Strength Rating of B++ (Good) and the Long-Term Issuer Credit Rating of 'bbb+' (Good) of Aseguradora General, S.A. (AGen) (Guatemala). The outlook of these Credit Ratings (ratings) is stable. The ratings reflect AGen's balance sheet strength, which AM Best assesses as strongest, as well as its marginal operating performance, neutral business profile and appropriate enterprise risk management (ERM). AGen was established in 1967 and is the sixth-largest insurer operating in Guatemala. As of year-end 2024, the company reported USD 92 million in direct premium, with a market share of 6.7%. The company underwrites a mixed portfolio of life and non-life business, with its retained premium distributed among major medical expenses, auto, life and a mix of property/casualty (P/C). AM Best assesses the company's business profile as neutral, supported by its importance within its domestic market, but limited by its geographic and product concentration. AGen's majority shareholder is a pure holding company privately held by investors that bought a 51% stake of the company in May 2017 from Assicurazioni Generali S.p.A. AM Best assesses AGen's balance sheet strength as strongest. The company's well-structured reinsurance program supports its capital base by properly limiting its exposure to catastrophe events. AM Best assesses AGen's ERM as appropriate as its management capabilities are sufficient to meet its risk appetite. AM Best assesses AGen's operating performance as marginal, The result posted for 2024 reflects the company's improved underwriting in particular lines, while challenges persist in its competitive insurance segments and in expense management. AM Best also recognizes the positive development of AGen's P/C lines of business. Net income has remained positive for the past five years; and 2024 results improved in comparison with 2023, to USD 7.5 million from USD 4.8 million. The stable outlooks reflect AM Best's expectation that AGen will maintain positive bottom-line results, reflective of technical adjustments, while maintaining its balance sheet strength. Positive rating actions could take place if the AGen's operating performance trends positively due to underwriting quality improvements. Negative rating actions could take place if the company's operating performance deteriorates and losses erode its capital base to a point where its risk-adjusted capitalization is no longer supportive of the ratings. This press release relates to Credit Ratings that have been published on AM Best's website. For all rating information relating to the release and pertinent disclosures, including details of the office responsible for issuing each of the individual ratings referenced in this release, please see AM Best's Recent Rating Activity web page.

Romania's new president nominates center-right former mayor as prime minister
BUCHAREST, Romania (AP) — Romania's new pro-Western president on Friday nominated a center-right former mayor to be prime minister, as the European Union and NATO member state seeks to usher in a new government to end a protracted political crisis that has gripped the nation since last year. President Nicusor Dan nominated 56-year-old Ilie Bolojan of the center-right National Liberal Party, or PNL, after a fresh round of talks Friday following weeks of deliberations. Bolojan previously served as acting president between February and May, when Dan decisively beat a hard-right opponent in a heated presidential election rerun. That closely watched vote came months after the previous election was annulled by a top court, which plunged Romania into a deep political crisis. At the presidential Cotroceni Palace in the capital Bucharest, Dan said Bolojan is the 'most suitable person" for the job, which includes tackling a budget crisis. 'It is in Romania's interest for the Government to be supported by a solid majority, and the parties have understood this,' Dan said. 'Romania's urgent priority is economic recovery, but ... you need a solid foundation." The president's nomination will need to be approved by lawmakers. A new government is expected to be comprised of the leftist Social Democratic Party, or PSD, the PNL, the reformist Save Romania Union party, and the small ethnic Hungarian UDMR party. The PSD has pushed for a power-sharing agreement that would see a rotation of the prime ministerial post. After he was nominated, Bolojan said he's 'fully aware of the great responsibility' the role will bring, and acknowledged it 'will not be an easy undertaking.' 'I will continue discussions with political parties to secure a parliamentary majority, finalize the government, and define the governing program,' he said. 'I will pursue three priorities: to restore order to the country's finances, to work toward good governance that creates conditions for development in Romania, and ... to show proper respect to the Romanian people." One of the biggest issues a new government will face is how to reduce Romania's large budget deficit, one of the highest in the 27-nation EU bloc. The presidential election furore also exposed deep societal divisions in the country. Cristian Andrei, a Bucharest-based political consultant, says that a new government will face the challenge of reaching a longer-term consensus over already delayed state reforms. 'There is only a disputed agreement on very short-term measures, for the economic and budget crisis," he told The Associated Press. 'If the short-term measures come with a social cost, inflation ... (and) will not be met by profound changes in policies and institutions, then the political crisis will loom over the next years and (future) elections.' After the first round of the May presidential vote, Bolojan, as acting president, appointed Catalin Predoiu of the PNL to helm the government, following the resignation of Marcel Ciolacu, who stepped down after his coalition's candidate failed to make the runoff.
