MOODY'S REVIEWS RATINGS OF CERTAIN INSURERS AND REINSURERS WITH EXPOSURE TO RECENT TERRORIST ATTACKS

24 Sep 2001
MOODY'S REVIEWS RATINGS OF CERTAIN INSURERS AND REINSURERS WITH EXPOSURE TO RECENT TERRORIST ATTACKS

New York, September 24, 2001 -- In the wake of the terrorist attacks occurring on September 11, Moody's Investors Service has initiated rating reviews for possible downgrade of a number of insurance enterprises. Moody's has also changed its outlooks for the ratings of a number of other insurers. While the losses reported to-date by rated insurers do not pose a threat to solvency, the magnitude of expected claims is significant and has not generally been factored into existing ratings.

Although each firm's situation is unique, Moody's has identified a number of concerns that are common to each, and that will be subject to further consideration and analysis during the review process. These common concerns are:

1) The magnitude of actual losses reported, both gross and net, relative to capitalization, fixed charges, cash flows, and core earnings.

2) The degree of uncertainty surrounding current estimates of loss, including the prospect for disputes about the extent to which reinsurance will respond.

3) The extent to which, following the recent attacks, the profile of risk within the insurance industry has changed, at least for some period of time.

Moody's initiates rating reviews in situations where current information suggests that the existing rating may be inappropriate, and where additional information and analysis is expected to be helpful in reaching a definitive conclusion. In the current situation, it is possible that the relevant uncertainties will take a long time to become resolved. However, the range of uncertainty will probably be materially reduced over the next few months. Moody's expects to conclude its reviews in this time frame.

To the extent that the actual damages from these events are consistent with initial estimates, Moody's expects that the rating reviews would typically conclude with either a confirmation or a one notch downgrade. Rating downgrades of two or more notches are quite unlikely except in cases where actual losses are significantly higher than current estimates or other adverse trends or events become manifest.

In individual cases, the rating reviews may also focus on issues other than the ones mentioned above. One example of such an issue would be the adequacy of loss reserves, in the context of Moody's annual loss reserve assessment, which is now complete. Another issue to be considered in certain cases is the extent to which a firm's future business opportunities

may be constrained by its relatively modest size, given the possibility that the magnitude of these expected losses could lead some insurance buyers to direct their business to the largest players. The specifics of each rating review will be outlined in separate press releases following this one.

For some insurers, Moody's believes that losses from the terrorist attacks have put pressure on the company's financial strength, but not to the extent that an immediate rating review is warranted. This may be true either because the size of the loss for that company is not expected to be severe or because the firm is supported by affiliates, either implicitly or

explicitly. In these cases, Moody's has elected to change its rating outlook to signal to counterparties and investors how that rating could trend over the medium term. The specifics of these changes in rating outlook will also be outlined in separate press releases.

Moody's has placed the insurance financial strength and long-term debt ratings of the following groups (including rated subsidiaries) under review for possible downgrade, except as qualified below:

ACE Limited (senior unsecured debt at A2; rating for commercial paper at Prime-1), review includes ACE Guaranty Re (insurance financial strength at Aa2), excludes ACE USA insurance financial strength ratings;

Copenhagen Reinsurance Company Limited (insurance financial strength at A3);

Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc. and Hartford Life, Inc. (senior unsecured debt at A2; rating for commercial paper at Prime-1); review excludes financial strength ratings of rated affiliated property/casualty and life insurance companies;

Liberty Mutual Group (insurance financial strength at Aa3, surplus notes at A2, rating for commercial paper at Prime-1); review includes Liberty Financial Companies' debt ratings, but excludes insurance financial strength ratings of rated affiliated life insurance companies;

Lloyd's Syndicate #2488 (ACE) - insurance financial strength at Aa2;

Lloyd's Syndicate #2020 (Wellington) - insurance financial strength at Aa3;

Lloyd's Syndicate #2001 (Amlin) - insurance financial strength at A1;

PXRE Group Ltd. (insurance financial strength at Baa1, trust preferred securities at Ba1);

Swiss Reinsurance Company (insurance financial strength at Aaa, senior unsecured debt at Aaa);

Zurich Insurance Company and guaranteed subsidiaries (insurance financial strength at Aa1, senior unsecured debt at Aa3); review excludes rated members of the Farmers Insurance Group, Centre Solutions Group, and Zurich Kemper Life companies.

Ratings on the following entities are already on review for possible downgrade, and will now consider - in addition to other issues - exposure to losses from the terrorist attack:

CNA (Continental Casualty Company insurance financial strength at A2; senior unsecured debt at Baa1);

Hannover Reinsurance Company (insurance financial strength at Aa3);

Legion Insurance Group (insurance financial strength at A3);

Lloyd's Syndicates #1007 and #1212 (SVB) - insurance financial strength at Aa3 and A1, respectively;

Zurich Reinsurance North America (to be renamed Converium Re) - insurance financial strength at Aa3, senior unsecured debt at A1.

The following ratings outlooks have been changed:

Employers Reinsurance Group (including GE Re, ERC Frankona Re) - insurance financial strength at Aaa, to negative from stable;

General Reinsurance Group (including GeneralCologne Re) - insurance financial strength at Aaa, to negative from stable;

Kemper National Insurance Companies (insurance financial strength at A2, to negative from stable);

Odyssey Reinsurance Group (insurance financial strength at Baa1, to stable from positive).

SCOR (insurance financial strength at A1, to stable from positive);

Sirius (insurance financial strength at A1, to stable from positive).

In some cases, certain of the companies referred to above may provide support, in the form of credit enhancement, to securities that are not direct obligations of these firms. Moody's is in the process of identifying and evaluating these securities and will comment on possible rating implications for those securities over the next few days.

Moody's will host a teleconference discussing these developments for the benefit of our research subscribers, on Friday September 28, at 10:00am Eastern Daylight Time. For further information, please call your Moody's Customer Service representative at 215-967-6233.

Additional terms for Japan only: Moody's Japan K.K. (“MJKK”) is a wholly-owned credit rating agency subsidiary of Moody's Group Japan G.K., which is wholly-owned by Moody’s Overseas Holdings Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of MCO.

MJKK and MSFJ are credit rating agencies registered with the Japan Financial Services Agency and their registration numbers are FSA Commissioner (Ratings) No. 2 and 3 respectively.

MJKK or MSFJ (as applicable) hereby disclose that most issuers of debt securities (including corporate and municipal bonds, debentures, notes and commercial paper) and preferred stock rated by MJKK or MSFJ (as applicable) have, prior to assignment of any credit rating, agreed to pay to MJKK or MSFJ (as applicable) for credit ratings opinions and services rendered by it fees ranging from JPY125,000 to approximately JPY550,000,000.
