GCR Ratings has released its latest financial strength assessments for FBS Reinsurance Limited, assigning the company strong ratings on both international and national scales.

The rating agency noted that the reinsurer has maintained a steady financial trajectory, with a “Stable” outlook on both fronts.

On the International Scale, GCR awarded FBS Reinsurance Limited a Financial Strength Rating of B‑, accompanied by a stable outlook. On the National Scale, the company received a highly favourable Financial Strength Rating of AA(NG), also with a stable outlook.

These ratings, endorsed by GCR’s Group Head of Ratings, highlight the firm’s solid operational foundation and capital security within its primary market.

Industry analysts observe that a national scale rating of AA(NG) indicates a very strong ability to meet financial obligations compared to other issuers or obligations in the same country.

The dual “Stable” outlooks suggest that GCR expects FBS Reinsurance Limited’s key credit metrics to remain resilient over the medium term, despite macroeconomic variables.
