S&P reaffirms Gard’s A+ rating with a stable outlook! We are happy to see that Gard has retained its Standard & Poor’s A+ rating under the rating agency’s new assessment criteria. In their recently published assessment of the club, S&P noted that “Gard has the strongest competitive position among its peers”.

In sum, Gard is less exposed to volatility than our peers in the marine insurance market, according to S&P. “Our financial strength underpins everything we do” said Gard CFO Christian Pritchard-Davies. “It means that we can provide our Members and clients with competitive and predictable premiums, and all the necessary support when something goes wrong.” #marineinsurance #financialstrength #gard You can read the S&P release here: https://lnkd.in/eK8SqrcX
