AM Best has updated its rating outlooks for RenaissanceRe and its subsidiaries, now seeing the reinsurance firm’s prospects as positive, rather than stable, citing improved performance, a more balanced business due to diversification, and of course the firm’s ability to attract third-party capital through joint-ventures and ILS partnerships.
