AM Best has assigned a Financial Strength Rating of A- (Excellent) and Long-Term Issuer Credit Rating of “a-” (Excellent) to Standard and Preferred 热点黑料 Co. of Kew Gardens, New York. The outlook assigned to these ratings is stable.

AM Best said the ratings reflect Standard and Preferred’s balance sheet strength, which its analysts assess as “very strong,” as well as its “adequate operating performance, limited business profile and appropriate enterprise risk management.”

The ratings also reflect Standard and Preferred’s “strongest level of risk-adjusted capitalization, as measured by Best’s Capital Adequacy Ratio (BCAR), track record of profitable results and seasoned team of insurance professionals who are experienced in the healthcare and nursing industry.”

AM Best added that an offsetting factor is the company’s “high level of reinsurance retention, which may potentially increase the overall volatility of results.”

Standard and Preferred was incorporated in New York in 2012. The company was issued a property/casualty license in 2017, and began underwriting P/C insurance the following year. Standard and Preferred was formed to serve a niche market, providing workers’ compensation coverage for the healthcare industry in New York, including nursing homes, assisted living facilities and homecare agencies.

The company’s business is focused on small- to medium-size entities that are in the nursing home and healthcare industry and writes workers’ compensation business through an affiliated managing general agent, Graph MGA LLC.

AM Best said it expects the company’s balance sheet strength and operating performance measures to be in line with company provided projections, and for it to grow surplus organically in the intermediate future.
