AM Best has affirmed the Financial Strength Rating of A (Excellent) and Long-Term Issuer Credit Ratings of "a+" (Excellent) for SCOR SE and its main subsidiaries, with stable outlooks. The ratings reflect SCOR's very strong balance sheet strength, adequate operating performance, very favorable business profile and appropriate enterprise risk management. SCOR's risk-adjusted capitalisation is expected to remain at the strongest level, supported by a conservative investment portfolio and robust retrocession programme. The French reinsurer reported consolidated net income of €631 million for the first nine months of 2025, a strong improvement over 2024. Property and casualty activities benefited from strong underwriting and below-budget natural catastrophe losses. SCOR maintains a prominent position among global reinsurers with excellent product and geographic diversification.
SCOR, a leading global reinsurer, reported selective growth during its January 2026 property and casualty reinsurance renewals despite competitive pricing pressures. The company achieved estimated gross premium income growth of 4.7% for traditional reinsurance and 80.5% for Alternative Solutions. The January renewals, representing approximately two-thirds of SCOR's P&C reinsurance book, saw P&C Lines grow 7.4%, driven by markets in Asia-Pacific and North America. Specialty Lines increased 0.3% as the company maintained disciplined underwriting amid pricing pressure. Alternative Solutions growth was primarily driven by capital relief transactions. SCOR's expected underwriting ratio increased by 2.0 percentage points, supported by retrocession buying. CEO Jean-Paul Conoscente said the company achieved targeted growth whilst maintaining adequate profitability through stable terms and conditions with core clients.
SCOR and AXA have partnered to establish a new consortium at Lloyd's of London to support investments in ecological restoration projects. The initiative aims to unlock funding by de-risking investments and closing insurance gaps for ecosystem recovery initiatives. The consortium will focus on underwriting SCOR's Restore Product, which insures the implementation phase of restoration measures enabling ecosystem recovery. SCOR's Syndicate 2015 will lead the consortium, with support from AXA XL Syndicate 2003. The development builds on SCOR's Nature Restoration and Conservation initiative launched in May 2024, which creates insurance solutions for nature-related restoration activities. SCOR P&C CEO Jean-Paul Conoscente said the partnership would help address pressing environmental challenges, whilst AXA's Etienne Champion described it as turning environmental commitments into tangible actions supporting natural capital.
