Labuan Reinsurance solvency remains robust
The company’s underwriting performance has shown consistent gains in 2023.
Labuan Reinsurance Ltd.’s (Labuan Re) (Malaysia) balance sheet strength is supported by a strong risk-adjusted capitalisation, as measured by AM Best’s Capital Adequacy Ratio (BCAR), which remained at the strongest level at the end of 2023.
Labuan Re maintains a prudent capital management strategy, ensuring robust regulatory solvency and a focus on conservative investments in cash, deposits, and fixed-income securities.
However, exposure to natural catastrophe risks, particularly through its regional and Lloyd’s operations, presents a challenge given the size of its capital base.
Labuan Re’s operating performance is considered adequate, with recent improvements attributed to management’s remedial actions.
The company’s underwriting performance has shown consistent gains in 2023 and the first half of 2024, supported by favourable underwriting results and strong investment returns.
