S&P Global Ratings affirmed the AA financial strength, financial enhancement, and issuer credit ratings of Assured Guaranty’s insurance subsidiaries and the A issuer credit rating of AGL on July 2, 2025. The outlooks for all ratings remain stable. This affirmation highlights the company's robust financial position and strategic stability.
S&P's research update report specifically highlighted Assured Guaranty’s very strong competitive position, well-diversified global underwriting strategy, and exceptional liquidity. The rating agency also noted the company's capital adequacy, which is above S&P’s 'AAA' stress level. These factors contribute to the company's ability to manage risks and pursue growth opportunities.
Dominic Frederico, President and CEO of Assured Guaranty, commented on the robust capital position, stating it is in excess of S&P’s stress level requirement for a AAA rating. He noted that the company has paid over $6 billion in net claims since 2007 and spent more than $6.5 billion to increase shareholder value through share repurchases and dividends. Furthermore, the company reduced its insured leverage by almost 60% over that period, demonstrating disciplined financial management.
