10月11日,國際著名評級機構貝氏評級公司(A.M. Best Co.)發布公告稱,確認了中國再保險(集團)股份有限公司及其子公司——中國財產再保險股份有限公司和中國人壽再保險股份有限公司“A級(優秀)”財務實力評級(FSR)和“a級”發行人信用評級(ICR)。所有評級的展望均為穩定。
貝氏評級公司表示,此次的評級確認考慮了中再集團的資本總額,持續優良的運營表現,以及在國內再保險市場上的領導地位。
中再集團憑借整體高比例留存營業利潤及重估可供出售金融資產公允價值獲得的重大收益,在2012年繼續提高了整體資本水平。另外,集團的人壽再保險業務憑借其在境外人民幣業務的強大市場地位,與在香港及其他亞洲市場的壽險公司發展共保業務,也對經營業績提供了正面的貢獻。集團于2012年的稅后凈利潤較2011年有所增長,主要為年內凈投資收益大幅上漲所帶動。
在2012年期間,中再集團通過以落實風險管理一體化的方式,進一步提升其綜合風險管理的能力。集團引入了風險偏好管理體系,開展了包括加強數據質量和模型建設能力等各類項目,以保證能夠持續評估其整體的風險狀況、支持風險管理決策。
A.M Best Affirms Ratings of China Reinsurance (Group) Corporation and Its Subsidiaries
October 10, 2013—A.M. Best Co. has affirmed the financial strength rating of A (Excellent) and issuer credit ratings of “a” of China Reinsurance (Group) Corporation (China Re) and its subsidiaries, China Property & Casualty Reinsurance Company Ltd. (CPCR) and China Life Reinsurance Company Ltd. (CLRC) (collectively known as China Re Group). The outlook for all ratings is stable.
The rating affirmations of China Re, CPCR and CLRE reflect the group’s consolidated capitalization, consistently favorable operating performance and leading position within the China reinsurance market.
China Re Group’s overall high retention of operating earnings and significant revaluation gains on available-for-sale securities continued to strengthen its consolidated capital position in 2012.
The group’s life reinsurance business also contributed positively to the operating results through its strong profile in the cross-border Renminbi (RMB) co-insurance business with life insurers in Hong Kong and other Asian markets. The group’s after-tax net income improved in 2012 over 2011, driven by significantly higher net investment gains during the year.
In 2012, China Re Group took further steps to enhance its overall risk management capabilities under an integrated risk management approach by introducing the risk appetite system. To support the risk appetite decision-making process, the group implemented various projects to strengthen its data quality and modeling capabilities in assessing its risk units across the board on an ongoing basis.
