AM Best, a global credit rating agency specializing in the insurance industry, has revised the outlook for Uzbekinvest from negative to stable. The Financial Strength Rating remains at B (Fair), and the Long-Term Issuer Credit Rating at “bb” (Fair). This positive shift reflects Uzbekinvest’s enhanced risk-adjusted capitalization, in part attributed to the sophisticated risk modelling and probable maximum loss estimation facilitated by URS.

URS’s expertise in risk analysis and modelling has been instrumental in this process, showcasing the company’s commitment to delivering tailored risk solutions that enhance the financial stability and performance of its clients.
