AM Best Revises Outlook to Negative for Star Mutual Risk Retention Group, Inc.; Affirms Credit Ratings

BUSINESS WIRE)-- AM Best has revised the outlooks to negative from stable and affirmed the Financial Strength Rating (FSR) of B+ (Good) and the Long-Term ICR of 'bbb-' (Good) of Star Mutual Risk Retention Group, Inc. (Star Mutual) (Knoxville, TN). The Credit Ratings (ratings) reflect Star Mutual's balance sheet strength, which AM Best assesses as adequate, as well as its adequate operating performance, limited business profile and appropriate enterprise risk management. The negative outlook reflects concerns regarding pressure on Star Mutual's risk-adjusted capitalization, as measured by Best's Capital Adequacy Ratio (BCAR), due to the company's rapid growth trajectory, which has significantly exceeded projections. Premium volume grew by over 150% in 2024, significantly outpacing surplus growth, driven largely by rapid expansion in policies in force and entry into new jurisdictions. While this growth has enhanced the company's market presence, it has also strained capital adequacy in the near term, raising concerns about the management of growth within its volume of risk insured and risk tolerance. Forward-looking projections indicate improvement, but AM Best believes execution risk remains elevated. In recent years, Star Mutual has continually strengthened its underwriting framework through the development of additional rating factors aimed at mitigating high-risk drivers and operators. These enhancements, along with increased visibility from the company's AM Best rating and expanded operating geography, have allowed Star Mutual to attract more diverse and preferred risks. The company continues to utilize and integrate additional enhancements to its proprietary underwriting platform that supports its risk mitigation strategy. AM Best acknowledges Star Mutual's efforts to further improve its overall risk selection and portfolio quality; however, the effectiveness of these controls will continue to be evaluated as the company scales further. Negative rating actions may occur in the near term if there is deterioration in balance sheet strength metrics such that they no longer support the current assessment. Negative rating actions may also occur if unexpected or material variances from projections persist. Although unlikely, positive rating actions could occur if surplus growth exceeds growth in premiums to better support the book of business and results in an improvement in overall balance sheet strength metrics. 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.

Best's Market Segment Report: AM Best Maintains Negative Outlook on Brazil Reinsurance Market

BUSINESS WIRE)-- AM Best is maintaining a negative outlook on Brazil's reinsurance market segment, citing in part political uncertainty and tax reform measures that are pressuring industry profitability. In addition to the approaching 2026 elections, regulatory restrictions on foreign assets have limited domestic reinsurers' growth abroad, according to the Best's Market Segment Report. According to the report, Brazil's reinsurance market continues to recover, but a favorable trend needs to be sustained. AM Best will consider the outlook to be stable when the volatility of the industry's technical and bottom-line results narrows, coupled with positive technical income, amid the new tax reforms taking place in the country. Brazil's gross domestic product grew by 3.9% in 2024, despite an atmosphere of economic uncertainty. Strong private consumption has driven an increase in demand, while growth in services and agriculture contributed to growth on the supply side. However, the Brazilian real has undergone a significant devaluation, reaching 6.18 BRL/USD, as of 30 December 2024. Annual growth in Brazil's reinsurance segment was driven by the property, special risks, aeronautics and financial risk lines of business. This was offset by a decrease in the agricultural and marine business lines at the end of 2024. 'Agricultural reinsurance can be considered a natural catastrophe-like exposure that leaves the sector vulnerable, but this is being mitigated by innovative techniques that now monitor climate risks,' said Ricardo Rodriguez Perez, senior financial analyst, AM Best. 'Despite these initiatives, agriculture reinsurance declined by 47%.' Among the report's other highlights: Recent tax changes applied to Brazilian insurers and reinsurers have pressured profitability in 2025. These changes increase the tax applied to foreign exchange transactions, with offshore reinsurers paying more than triple the taxes than in previous years. A deceleration in reinsurance industry growth shows the improvement in risk selection from local or domestic reinsurers, but also reflects the increase of premium ceded by these insurers to reinsurers offshore. Brazil's (re) insurance segment has benefited from higher interest rates paid on its invested reserves. Investment income has contributed significantly to the profitability of Brazil's reinsurance industry, leading to positive bottom-line results for 2023 and 2024.

AM Best Places Credit Ratings of British Caribbean Insurance Company Limited Under Review With Developing Implications

BUSINESS WIRE)-- AM Best has placed under review with developing implications the Financial Strength Rating of B++ (Good) and the Long-Term Issuer Credit Rating of 'bbb' (Good) of British Caribbean Insurance Company Limited (BCIC) (Jamaica). The action taken on these Credit Ratings (ratings) is due to the announced completion of BCIC's acquisition of JN General Insurance Company (JNGI) on June 11, 2025.

AM Best has placed these ratings under review with developing implications pending completion of its discussions with management as to the business strategy for the combined operations and the impact of the amalgamation on BCIC's balance sheet strength, operating performance, business profile and its enterprise risk management. The ratings will remain under review with developing implications until the completion of any amalgamation and AM Best's discussions with management about the strategic and financial plans for the combined organization.
