A.M. BEST COMMENTS ON RATINGS OF GENERAL INSURANCE CORPORATION OF INDIA FOLLOWING NEPAL EARTHQUAKE

HONG KONG, May 7 (Bernama) -- A.M. Best has commented that the financial strength rating of A- (Excellent) and the issuer credit rating of “a-” of General Insurance Corporation of India (GIC Re) (India) remain unchanged following the devastating earthquake that struck Nepal on April 25, 2015.
GIC Re’s risk exposure in Nepal is protected by its retrocession arrangement through excess of loss (XoL) cover. The maximum net loss after XoL and the reinstatement premium is small compared with the company’s latest capital and surplus. Hence, the impact of the earthquake on GIC Re’s ratings is insignificant.
