The negative outlook for Fubon Insurance results from concerns about potential pressure on balance sheet strength due to heightened reinsurer credit risk and uncertainties in the company’s capital position, despite recovering non-consolidated capital in 2023.

Negative rating actions could occur with unfavourable resolution of reinsurance disputes, insufficient capital replenishment, or sustained deterioration in operating performance.
