Business Wire
AM Best has commented that the Credit Ratings (ratings)
of James River Group Holdings, Ltd. (JRG Holdings) [NASDAQ: JRVR]
(Bermuda) and its subsidiaries remain unchanged following the
announcement that its two principal operating subsidiaries have
entered into a combined loss portfolio transfer and adverse
development cover reinsurance agreement with State National
Insurance Company, Inc. (State National). The reinsurance agreement
was executed on July 2, 2024, and is effective Jan. 1, 2024.
Under the terms of the agreement, State National will provide
$160.0 million of adverse development reinsurance coverage for JRG
Holdings’ excess and surplus lines segment casualty portfolio for
accident years 2010-2023 (both years inclusive), subject to a 15%
co-participation by the company. The reinsurance structure has no
coverage sublimits, but does exclude exposure to the JRG Holdings’
former large commercial auto book, with the vast majority of that
exposure already subject to a previously executed loss portfolio
transfer. JRG Holdings will retain claims management.
