S&P turns Uniqa view to negative
S&P said it revised its outlook for Uniqa Insurance Group AG to negative from stable, but affirmed the A- rating and the A ratings on Uniqa’s core entities.
At Dec. 31, Uniqa's exposure to Ukraine and Russia totaled 2.9% of overall gross written premiums and 6.9% of total earnings before taxes. In the two countries, Uniqa had about €530 million of assets, mainly invested in government debt and to a lesser extent in corporate debt, property and cash.
“The negative outlook reflects our view that Uniqa's exposure to Russia and Ukraine poses a one-in-three chance of a downside risk to the ratings deviating from our base-case assumptions,” the agency said in a press release.
