AM Best has assigned a Performance Assessment of PA-3 (Strong) to Redbridge Group, LLC (Redbridge) (Coral Gables, FL). The outlook assigned to the Performance Assessment (assessment) is stable.

The assessment reflects Redbridge’s strong underwriting capabilities, strong governance and internal controls, strong financial condition, strong organizational talent and strong depth and breadth of relationships.

Redbridge, a subsidiary of Redbridge Insurance Company Limited, provides a wide range of insurance, reinsurance management and business support services to customers in the United States, Latin America and the Caribbean, particularly in the fields of life and health insurance. Its underwriting capabilities are considered strong through the current year. At the heart of Redbridge’s underwriting strategy lies a suite of models developed by its actuarial team. Underwriting capabilities benefit from the expertise and oversight of its management team.

AM Best considers Redbridge’s governance and internal controls to be strong . Redbridge aligns interest with key stakeholders through its services and support, along with carriers through profit commissions. The company’s robust technological framework streamlines underwriting processes, enhances transparency and strengthens risk management practices. The company is vulnerable to key person risk, and its succession plans were provided to AM Best for review.

Redbridge’s financial condition is assessed as strong. Key earnings metrics are viewed as strong and benefit from a diverse and sustainable range of services, including reinsurance management and various business support services. Improvements in underwriting performance are expected to fuel further earning potential through profit commissions. Debt coverage indicators are favorable, confirming the company’s sufficient capacity to support its financial obligations through its operating income.

AM Best assesses Redbridge’s organizational talent as strong, led by an experienced executive team. The company has a clear reporting structure that establishes and defines roles and responsibilities. Furthermore, the company provides career development opportunities to employees at all levels, covering a range of topics such as technical skills, industry proficiency and leadership training.

Redbridge’s depth and breadth of relationships are considered strong. The company manages two main programs, health and life, across the Latin America and Caribbean arenas. Redbridge’s restructure of its programs in recent years has led to somewhat low retention metrics, a slight offsetting factor to the assessment.
