A.M. BEST ASSIGNS CREDIT RATINGS TO PEAK REINSURANCE AG

HONG KONG, April 25 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- A.M. Best has assigned a Financial Strength Rating of A- (Excellent) and a Long-Term Issuer Credit Rating of "a-" to Peak Reinsurance AG (Peak Re AG) (Switzerland). The outlook assigned to these Credit Ratings (ratings) is stable.

The ratings reflect Peak Re AG's sound business plan, supportive risk-based capitalization and retrocession support provided by its parent company, Peak Reinsurance Company Limited (Peak Re). Peak Re established a Zurich branch office in September 2015. In December 2016, the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) awarded Peak Re AG a subsidiary license to underwrite non-life reinsurance business. A.M. Best expects Peak Re AG to operate with a high degree of integration with Peak Re, which will include retrocession support and the sharing of branding and core operational functions such as underwriting, pricing, marketing, reserving and risk management.
