AM Best Affirms Credit Ratings of Everest Re Group, Ltd. and Its Subsidiaries
OLDWICK, N.J.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–AM Best has affirmed the Financial Strength Rating of A+
(Superior) and the Long-Term Issuer Credit Ratings (Long-Term ICR) of
“aa-” of the operating subsidiaries of Everest Re Group, Ltd. (Bermuda)
(collectively referred to as Everest). Concurrently, AM Best has
affirmed the Long-Term ICRs of “a-” of Everest Re Group, Ltd. [NYSE:RE]
and Everest Reinsurance Holdings, Inc. (Delaware). Additionally, AM Best
has affirmed the Long-Term Issue Credit Ratings (Long-Term IR) of
Everest Reinsurance Holdings, Inc. The outlook of these Credit Ratings
(ratings) is stable. (See below for a detailed listing of the companies
and ratings.)
The ratings reflect Everest’s balance sheet strength, which AM Best
categorizes as strongest, as well as its adequate operating performance,
very favorable business profile and appropriate enterprise risk
management (ERM) for the group’s risk profile.
The group benefits from the strongest balance sheet strength assessment,
which is largely attributed to robust levels of risk-adjusted
capitalization as measured by Best’s Capital Adequacy Ratio, high
quality of capital and a retrocession program that helps limit downside
risk. Everest also benefits from low financial leverage compared with
peer companies and long-term very strong coverage metrics that enhance
the group’s financial flexibility.
Everest maintains a very favorable business profile as a leading
non-life reinsurer, ranking in the top 10 of AM Best’s Top 50 Global
Reinsurance Groups, with particular expertise in writing
property-catastrophe cover. Everest also provides additional market
capacity through its Mt. Logan Re platform, as well as Kilimanjaro Re
catastrophe bonds. AM Best believes that Everest’s very favorable
business profile has helped the group generate profitable business under
very competitive conditions.
Furthermore, Everest has posted operating performance metrics that
consistently outperform its peer group despite its elevated risk
profile. Despite adverse development experienced in the first half of
2018, Everest’s results were within AM Best’s expectations given the
relatively high level of catastrophic activity in 2017 and 2018. AM Best
believes this is attributable, at least partially, to the
well-established risk management infrastructure that is embedded across
the organization. Everest also benefits from a relatively low expense
ratio that allows the group to absorb more readily significant losses
compared with many of its peers.
The FSR of A+ (Superior) and the Long-Term ICRs of “aa-” have been
affirmed for the following reinsurance and insurance subsidiaries of
Everest Re Group, Ltd.:
- Everest Reinsurance (Bermuda), Ltd.
- Everest Reinsurance Company
- Everest International Reinsurance, Ltd.
- Everest Reinsurance Company (Ireland), Designated Activity Company
- Everest National Insurance Company
- Everest Indemnity Insurance Company
- Everest Security Insurance Company
- Everest Insurance Company of Canada
- Everest International Assurance Ltd.
- Everest Denali Insurance Company
- Everest Premier Insurance Company
The following Long-Term IRs have been affirmed:
Everest
Reinsurance Holdings, Inc.—
— “a-” on $400 million 4.868% fixed
senior unsecured notes, due 2044
— “bbb” on $400 million 6.6%
fixed-to-floating long-term junior subordinated notes, due 2067

Apollo Green to distribute Humboldt Seed Company clonal cannabis genetics to Germany, Portugal and Australia
SAN FRANCISCO, April 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Humboldt Seed Company (HSC), California’s leading cannabis seed producer, has announced a partnership with Canadian-based Apollo Green to make eight breeder cuts available to researchers, licensed commercial cultivators and home growers in legal markets worldwide. This first-to-market clonal genetics release is a significant milestone and will expand access to distinctive, high-quality cannabis genetics in both established and emerging global markets including Germany, Portugal and Australia.
The curated, breeder-verified selection includes pioneering triploid genetics, such as OG Triploid and Donutz Triploid alongside the legendary cult classic Blueberry Muffin. Also available are All Gas OG with a THC content of 21% and four high-THC strains in the 30-35% range: Golden Sands, Guzzlerz, Jelly Donutz and Orange Creampop. These selections represent the top .01% from HSC’s extensive California pheno-hunting program.
Exports will begin in May under Apollo Green’s Canadian federal cannabis license. All shipments have Canadian phytosanitary certification, ensuring plants have been inspected, and are clean and free of pests.
“Access for all to quality genetics has been our core focus since the beginning,” said HSC Co-founder and Chief Science Officer, Benjamin Lind. “Our science-based approach to breeding aligns perfectly with Apollo Green’s high standards and we are excited to be able to extend these hand-selected cuts to a wider audience, especially at this pivotal time where we’re seeing positive regulatory changes globally.”
Oisin Tierney, Apollo Green Director of Business Development, said, “California has long been recognized for setting industry standards, and we are proud to play a role in bringing these esteemed genetics to cultivators worldwide. The triploids are especially noteworthy in terms of the unprecedented potential for enhanced plant vigor, higher yields, shorter flowering times and superior returns for solventless extraction.”
