Profile:
KBRA’s Insurance Financial Strength Rating approach is different in that it is not model driven. This approach allows for more in depth and fundamental analysis of a company. IFSRs are supported by two main rating methodologies: Global Insurer and Insurance Holding Company Rating Methodology and Global Captive Insurer Rating Methodology. All KBRA methodologies, research and reports are complementary and can be found on: www.kbra.com

KBRA proudly serves all insurance markets from our Headquarters in New York as well as our office in Dublin, Ireland and was one of only two rating agencies nominated by Reactions Magazine for 2018 Rating Agency of the Year.
