Sagicor Upgraded To 'BB+' From 'BB' On Consistently Stronger Capital Adequacy, Outlook Stable
December 01, 2020

Sagicor's total adjusted capital has improved, and we expect it to remain above our 'A' benchmark in 2020-2022 despite the hit to earnings this year and the planned acquisition of the CLICO and BAT portfolios. As a result, we're revising the group credit profile (GCP) upward to 'bbb' from 'bbb-'.
