AM Best Places Credit Ratings of The Hand-in-Hand Mutual Fire Insurance Company Limited and Hand-in-Hand Mutual Life Assurance Company Limited Under Review With Negative Implications

AM Best has placed under review with negative implications the Financial Strength Rating of B++ (Good) and the Long-Term Issuer Credit Ratings of “bbb+” (Good) of The Hand-in-Hand Mutual Fire Insurance Company Limited (HIHF) (Guyana) and the Hand-in-Hand Mutual Life Assurance Company Limited (HIHL). Both entities are referred to as Hand-in-Hand Group. This Credit Rating (rating) action follows a delay in the Hand-in-Hand Group providing financial information for 2023.

The under review with negative implications status reflects the uncertainty regarding the Hand-in-Hand Group’s financial position and performance considering the lack of 2023 audited financial statements. While AM Best recognizes that the supervisory and regulatory authority (Bank of Guyana) has granted extensions for the delivery of this information, such timelines conflict with AM Best practices.

The ratings are expected to remain under review with negative implications until AM Best has received 2023 audited financial information for the Hand-in-Hand Group and subsequently has assessed the company’s rating fundamentals in light of this information.

The ratings of Hand-in-Hand Group reflect its balance sheet strength, which AM Best assesses as very strong, as well as its adequate operating performance, neutral business profile and appropriate enterprise risk management.
