November 24, 2015 by Allison Bell
Moody’s Investors Servicesbrought reporters to its offices in downtown Manhattan Wednesday to explain how its analysts see the insurance world.
Moody’s and other rating agencies are still recovering from the firestorm of regulatory scrutiny they passed through during the Great Recession.
But what analysts at the firms think can still have a big effect on insurers, producers and customers, because the firms’ ratings influence how much insurers pay to borrow money, whether insurers can borrow money, and whether insurers are viewed as being stable enough to write products that may pay off far in the future, or may pay benefits over long periods of time.
