AM Best has affirmed the Financial Strength Rating (FSR) of A++ (Superior) and Long-Term Issuer Credit Ratings (ICR) of "aa+" (Superior) for The Travelers Companies, Inc. (NYSE: TRV) and its main subsidiaries.

The rating agency maintained a stable outlook for the insurer, citing its strongest balance sheet strength assessment and very strong operating performance. The affirmation covers Travelers Group, including key subsidiary Travelers Casualty and Surety Company of America (TCSA).

Rating Rationale

AM Best’s assessment highlights Travelers’ strongest level of risk-adjusted capitalization as measured by Best’s Capital Adequacy Ratio (BCAR). The agency noted consistent favorable loss reserve development trends, a conservative investment portfolio, and comprehensive reinsurance programs as key supports for the balance sheet strength rating.

The group’s very strong operating performance reflects sustained underwriting and operating profitability over the long term. In 2025, Travelers reported $4.1 billion in net underwriting income, marking the largest such figure in its history.

Underwriting results combined with investment income resulted in total net income of $6.5 billion for the year.
