KUALA LUMPUR, May 4 (Bernama) -- AM Best has affirmed the financial strength rating of B++ (Good), the long-term issuer credit rating of “bbb+” (Good), and the Vietnam National Scale Rating of aaa.VN (Exceptional) of Vietnam National Reinsurance Corporation (VINARE).
The outlook of these credit ratings (ratings) is stable, reflecting VINARE’s very strong balance sheet strength, strong operating performance, neutral business profile and appropriate enterprise risk management (ERM).
VINARE’s balance sheet strength is underpinned by its risk-adjusted capitalisation, as measured by Best’s Capital Adequacy Ratio, which was at the strongest level at year-end 2025 and is expected to remain at this level over the medium term.
Offsetting factors include moderate investment risk driven by equity holdings, as well as reliance on retrocession for large commercial risks, although associated credit risks are partly mitigated by the sound quality of counterparties, according to AM Best in a statement.
The global credit rating agency assesses VINARE’s operating performance as strong, supported by its five-year average return-on-equity ratio of 10.8 per cent (fiscal years 2021 to 2025).
The company has generated robust underwriting profits, supported by favourable underwriting performance of its commercial businesses, although partially offset by a higher expense ratio. Investment income remains the key contributor to its overall earnings, with a net investment income ratio of 22.6 per cent in fiscal year 2025.
Prospectively, AM Best expects VINARE to maintain strong operating performance, supported by its core commercial business and stable investment income.
As Vietnam’s national reinsurer, VINARE benefits from long-standing relationships with local cedants and derives the majority of its premium from the domestic market. The company maintains a well-diversified underwriting portfolio across business lines, although it remains exposed to elevated product risk due to its sizable commercial and industrial risk exposure.
VINARE’s ERM is assessed as appropriate, supported by its risk management framework and technical expertise, including support from its second-largest shareholder, Swiss Reinsurance Company Ltd.

MAVENIR PACKET CORE GOES LIVE WITH JAPAN'S RAKUTEN MOBILE
KUALA LUMPUR, April 29 (Bernama) -- Mavenir, the software company building artificial intelligence (AI)-by-design mobile networks, announced that its Converged Packet Core is now live in Rakuten Mobile’s nationwide mobile network, deployed on Rakuten Cloud Platform.
Mavenir, in a statement said the deployment plays a key role in enabling Rakuten Mobile to deliver multi-carrier roaming via ‘JAPAN Roaming’, a nationwide emergency service launched by Japan’s leading mobile carriers on April 1.
Mavenir Executive Vice President and General Manager, Packet Core, Security and Messaging, Michael Cooper said the deployment demonstrates how cloud-native packet core technology can support resilient, large-scale connectivity under extreme network conditions, contributing to public safety and service continuity.
Meanwhile, Rakuten Mobile General Manager of the Core Network Department, Ryo Watanabe said Mavenir’s cloud-native packet core is central to the operator’s role in JAPAN Roaming, enabling flexible and reliable connectivity when it is needed most.
Mavenir’s cloud-native packet core provides the scalable, resilient data foundation required for Rakuten Mobile to support cross-carrier access under emergency conditions, demonstrating how cloud-based core networks can strengthen national communications infrastructure and support service continuity at scale.
JAPAN Roaming enables users to temporarily connect to another domestic carrier’s 4G LTE network if their primary service is disrupted by major outages or disasters. The service supports 4G LTE voice, SMS and data, alongside an emergency-calls-only mode to maintain access to critical services.
Mavenir added that its cloud-native core portfolio supports voice, data, messaging, fraud protection and security, and is designed to scale with operators’ evolving service and resilience requirements—enabling faster service deployment, increased automation and improved responsiveness to changing network conditions.
The company also noted its long-standing relationship with Rakuten Mobile, including earlier deployments of cloud-native voice and messaging capabilities for Rakuten Link, supporting ongoing service innovation within the operator’s fully virtualised network.

Bitget Launches Blockchain4Youth Learning Hub to Strengthen the Future Web3 Workforce
VICTORIA, Seychelles, April 28 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bitget, the world’s largest Universal Exchange (UEX), has announced the launch of the Blockchain4Youth Learning Hub: Semester 1, a new education initiative designed to help young learners explore blockchain not only as a field of study, but as a viable career path in the digital economy.
As part of Bitget’s broader Blockchain4Youth initiative, the Learning Hub expands the program’s mission of making blockchain education more accessible and actionable for young people worldwide. Through recent initiatives such as the LALIGA Youth Tournament in Thailand, its partnership with Google Developer Group on Campus, and the Web3 Young Learners’ Encyclopedia, Blockchain4Youth has engaged more than 15,000 participants since launch, reflecting its ongoing commitment to youth development and the rising interest among students in finding clearer pathways into the Web3 industry.
The Blockchain4Youth Learning Hub combines structured learning with professional recognition and career-oriented support. Learners who complete the program and pass the assessments will receive a Certificate of Completion signed by Ignacio Aguirre Franco, Chief Marketing Officer of Bitget, giving them a credential they can present across their professional profiles.
The certificate is intended to serve as more than proof of participation. It offers verified recognition of Web3 competency and unlocks access to a broader network of opportunities. Certificate holders can benefit from priority review for opportunities at Bitget and gain entry to the Blockchain4Youth Talent Alliance, a core pillar of the program designed to connect certified learners with the wider Web3 industry. Through the alliance, participants can access priority opportunities, industry exposure, and networking channels, creating a clearer pathway between demonstrated knowledge and real-world professional roles.
As part of this effort, Bitget has confirmed a partnership with Bondex, the Web3 professional network behind web3.career, the largest job board in the industry. Through the partnership, Bitget and Bondex aim to make career entry points into Web3 more transparent and accessible for the next generation of builders and professionals
“Most young people trying to break into Web3 hit the same wall, they take a course, then have no network, no verified credentials, and no clear path to a job.” said Ignacio Palomera, Co-Founder of Bondex. “Blockchain4Youth and Bondex fix that. Finish the program, build a verified profile, be discovered in the Bondex trusted talent pool and apply directly to companies hiring on web3.career. It's the bridge the industry's been missing.
“A lot of young people are interested in Web3, but interest alone does not always show them where to begin,” said Ignacio Aguirre Franco, CMO of Bitget. “The Learning Hub is about making that first step feel more real by giving learners knowledge, recognition, and a better sense of where this path can lead. When young talent can see opportunity more clearly, they are more likely to believe they belong in the future of this industry.”
Ultimately, Blockchain4Youth Learning Hub reflects a broader commitment to building long-term infrastructure for Web3 education and talent development. More than a standalone campaign, the Learning Hub demonstrates how Blockchain4Youth is evolving into a sustained platform that supports learners as they move from discovery to skill-building, and from participation to contribution. Through this initiative, Bitget continues to position itself not only as a platform for digital assets, but also as an ecosystem builder helping shape the workforce that will define the next phase of Web3.
The B4Y Talent Alliance welcomes recruiting companies that want to connect with emerging talent, expand industry access, and create more pathways into Web3. Interested organizations can contact blockchain4youth@bitget.com.
