AM Best is a leader in rating alternative risk transfer entities, covering more than 200 such vehicles including single-parent and group captives, risk retention groups (RRGs), and protected cell captives in a number of domiciles.
We provide captive owners/managers with an independent, third-party assessment of balance sheet strength, operating performance, business profile and enterprise risk management.
A Best’s Credit Rating can enhance a captive’s interface with the conventional market through fronting and reinsurance, as well as assist in meeting the requirements of regulators and business partners.
