IGI’s Financial Strength Ratings Affirmed by AM Best Global

By: via Business Wire

International General Insurance Holdings Ltd. (“IGI” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: IGIC) today announced that AM Best has affirmed its financial strength ratings at A (Excellent) with a Stable outlook.

The ratings apply to IGI’s three subsidiaries International General Insurance Co. Ltd. (Bermuda), International General Insurance Company (UK) Ltd. and International General Insurance Company (Europe) SE.

The key factors cited by AM Best in affirming IGI’s ratings are the Company’s “very strong” consolidated balance sheet, its strong operating performance underpinned by robust underwriting, with IGI’s underwriting discipline being a “key factor supporting its good financial results”. AM Best also noted the Company’s well-diversified business profile by line of business and geography.

IGI Chairman and CEO Wasef Jabsheh said, “AM Best’s reaffirmation of our financial strength ratings at A (Excellent), with a stable outlook, recognizes the significant progress we have made in strengthening our balance sheet, and growing and diversifying our portfolio while maintaining quality profitable underwriting. We are continuing to find attractive opportunities in our various markets, especially in Europe where we recently launched our European business in Malta. In keeping with our long track record, our further expansion will be thoughtful and measured.”

The expectations, estimates, and projections of the business of IGI may differ from its actual results and, consequently, you should not rely on forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believes,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements contained in this press release may include, but are not limited to, our expectations regarding the performance of our business, our financial results, our liquidity and capital resources, the outcome of our strategic initiatives, our expectations regarding pricing and other market conditions, and our growth prospects. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. Most of these factors are outside of the control of IGI and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: (1) changes in demand for IGI’s services together with the possibility that IGI may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors globally and in the regions in which it operates; (2) competition, the ability of IGI to grow and manage growth profitably and IGI’s ability to retain its key employees; (3) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (4) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Company; (5) the potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and emerging variants; (6) the inability to maintain the listing of the Company’s common shares or warrants on Nasdaq; and (7) other risks and uncertainties indicated in IGI’s filings with the SEC. The foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. In addition, forward-looking statements are inherently based on various estimates and assumptions that are subject to the judgment of those preparing them and are also subject to significant economic, competitive, industry and other uncertainties and contingencies, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict and many of which are beyond the control of IGI. There can be no assurance that IGI’s financial condition or results of operations will be consistent with those set forth in such forward-looking statements.
