Moody's Investors Service announced today that it had upgraded the insurance financial strength rating (IFSR) of SCOR and various subsidiaries to A2 from A3, and SCOR's subordinated debt to Baa1 from Baa2. All ratings have a stable outlook.  

 

SCOR welcomes the decision by Moody’s to upgrade the Group taking into account “SCOR’s significant and good progress made with regard to the integration of both Revios and Converium, recent good profitability, maintenance of excellent asset quality, and the meaningful improvement in financial leverage”.

 

Moody’s decision follows the upgrade received this year from Fitch and the improvement of outlook from Standard & Poor’s, further demonstrating the strong progress made by the Group.
