AM Best Affirms Credit Ratings of Chubb Limited and Its Subsidiaries

OLDWICK, N.J.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#insurance—AM Best has affirmed the Financial Strength Rating (FSR) of A++ (Superior) and the Long-Term Issuer Credit Ratings (Long-Term ICR) of “aa+” (Superior) of the grouped subsidiaries of Chubb Limited (Chubb) (Zurich, Switzerland) [NYSE: CB]. These include Chubb’s rated U.S., Canada, Bermuda, Europe and Panama-based insurance and reinsurance subsidiaries (collectively Chubb Group of Insurance Companies, or Chubb Group). Concurrently, AM Best has affirmed the Long-Term ICRs of “a+” (Excellent) and the Long-Term Issue Credit Ratings (Long-Term IR) of Chubb Limited and Chubb INA Holdings LLC (Delaware). In addition, AM Best has affirmed the FSR of A+ (Superior) and the Long-Term ICRs of “aa-” (Superior) of Combined Insurance Company of America (Chicago, IL) and Combined Life Insurance Company of New York (Latham, NY) (together known as the Combined companies). AM Best also has affirmed the FSR of A- (Excellent) and the Long-Term ICR of “a-” (Excellent) of ACE Life Insurance Company (ACE Life) (Stamford, CT). At the same time, AM Best has affirmed the FSR of A (Excellent) and the Long-Term ICR of “a+” (Excellent) of Chubb Life Insurance New Zealand Limited (Chubb Life NZ) (New Zealand). The outlook of these Credit Ratings (ratings) is stable. (Please see the link below for a detailed listing of the companies and ratings.)

The ratings of the Chubb Group reflect Chubb’s balance sheet strength, which AM Best assesses as strongest, as well as its very strong operating performance, favorable business profile and appropriate enterprise risk management (ERM). Chubb’s very strong operating performance is anchored in the group’s consistently highly profitable underwriting performance – as reflected in a combined ratio in the mid-to-high 80 percent range that notably outperforms industry averages for highly rated insurers – as well as consistently solid investment returns on a high-quality investment portfolio.

Chubb’s business profile is notable for its product and geographic breadth and depth, as it operates in more than 50 countries and jurisdictions worldwide. Through ACE American Insurance Company and its pooled and/or substantially reinsured U.S. affiliates, Chubb is a market leader in U.S. commercial, specialty and agricultural insurance, as well as personal lines insurance for high-net-worth customers. Chubb’s rated Bermuda operations – most notably Chubb Bermuda Insurance Ltd. (a leader in the excess casualty marketplace, with a leading position among national and multi-national corporations), and Chubb Tempest Reinsurance Ltd (an international multiline reinsurer that also serves as the intra-group reinsurance hub for many of Chubb’s subsidiaries throughout the world) – are highly capitalized and are strategic assets for the group. Chubb European Group SE is one of the group’s largest operating entities and the primary vehicle for providing a wide variety of coverages and lines of business across multiple markets to Chubb’s European clients.

AM Best notes that Chubb’s risk-adjusted capitalization, as measured by Best’s Capital Adequacy Ratio (BCAR), has consistently stood at the strongest level, benefiting from a very high-quality investment portfolio and excellent historical reserve adequacy position, a solid reinsurance program, and a high quality of capital, in part reflecting relatively modest reliance on debt in the group’s capital structure. Tempering capital strength is a somewhat elevated financial leverage relative to tangible capital, and a share repurchase program that has limited capital growth in recent years.

The ratings of the Combined companies reflect their balance sheet strength, which AM Best assesses as strong, as well as their strong operating performance, neutral business profile and appropriate ERM.

The ratings of ACE Life reflect its balance sheet strength, which AM Best assesses as very strong, as well as its marginal operating performance, very limited business profile and appropriate ERM. The ratings also reflect the continued financial support received from its parent.

The ratings of Chubb Life NZ reflect its balance sheet strength, which AM Best assesses as very strong, as well as its adequate operating performance, neutral business profile and appropriate ERM. The ratings also factor in rating enhancement from the company’s parent and support from Chubb Limited.

A complete listing of Chubb Limited’s FSRs, Long-Term ICRs and Long-Term IRs also is available.

Shibarium May No Longer Turbocharge Shiba Inu Price Rally, Here’s Reason

The post Shibarium May No Longer Turbocharge Shiba Inu Price Rally, Here’s Reason appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Shibarium, the layer-2 blockchain of the Shiba Inu (SHIB) ecosystem, is battling to stay active. Shibarium has slipped from hitting transaction milestones to struggling to record any transactions on its platform, a development that could severely impact SHIB. Shibarium transactions crash from millions to near zero As per Shibariumscan data, the total daily transactions on Shibarium as of Sept. 16 stood at 11,600. This volume of transactions reflects how low the transaction count has dropped for the L2, whose daily average ranged between 3.5 million and 4 million last month. However, in the last week of August, daily transaction volume on Shibarium lost momentum, slipping from 1.3 million to 9,590 as of Aug. 28. This pattern has lingered for much of September, with the highest peak so far being on Sept. 5, when it posted 1.26 million transactions. The low user engagement has greatly affected the transaction count in recent days. In addition, the security breach over the weekend by malicious attackers on Shibarium has probably worsened issues. Although developer Kaal Dhairya reassured the community that the attack to steal millions of BONE tokens was successfully prevented, users’ confidence appears shaken. This has also impacted the price outlook for Shiba Inu, the ecosystem’s native token. Following reports of the malicious attack on Shibarium, SHIB dipped immediately into the red zone. Unlike on previous occasions where investors accumulated on the dip, market participants did not flock to Shiba Inu. Shiba Inu price struggles, can burn mechanism help? With the current near-zero crash in transaction volume for Shibarium, SHIB’s price cannot depend on it to support a rally. It might take a while to rebuild user confidence and for transactions to pick up again. In the meantime, Shiba Inu might have to rely on other means to boost prices from its low levels. This…
