A.M. BestTV: Analysts Review State of Rated Captives
OREANDA-NEWS. This A.M.BestTV episode explores how the aggregated financial results for the subset of captive insurance companies followed by A.M. Best are better than results for the broader U.S. commercial insurance sector.
A.M. Best analysts Gary Davis, assistant vice president, and Fred Eslami, senior financial analyst, highlighted those results and others contained in a recent Best Special Report, titled, “U.S. Captive Insurers Benefit From Core Competencies.”
“The captive segment has had another good year,” said Davis. “The segment has a history of solid earnings, as well as a very strong capital position. A.M. Best has a stable outlook on this segment.”
Eslami called attention to the success of these captives, saying it “can be measured by the dividends that they have paid over the years.” He spotlighted how between 2011 and 2015, about 140 U.S. captives paid about $1.6 billion in dividends to either their parents or members, and at the same time, increased surplus by $4.3 billion.
