Genworth Financial receives rating upgrade from Moody’s
“This upgrade from Moody’s, which is the fourth upgrade we have received from rating agencies since September 2021, reflects the tremendous progress we have made in improving our financial profile,” said Daniel Sheehan, Genworth’s Chief Financial Officer and Chief Investment Officer. “We have significantly reduced debt which has strengthened our balance sheet and reduced risk. Looking ahead, we will build off of this strong foundation by executing on our strategic priorities.”
The Insurer Financial Strength ratings of Genworth’s life insurance subsidiaries, which include Genworth Life Insurance Company, Genworth Life Insurance Company of New York and Genworth Life and Annuity Insurance Company, were unaffected by this ratings action.
Additional information regarding the rating upgrade can be found in the credit opinion issued by Moody’s this week.
