Wisconsin-based insurance company awarded A+ rating and top 50-national ranking
MADISON, Wis., Sept. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Rural Mutual Insurance Company (RMIC) has earned the AM Best A+ rating for the seventh consecutive year. The rating is based on historical results (2023 and earlier) and early returns from 2024.
"It's a huge recognition, especially in the current insurance market cycle that we're in," said Dan Merk, Rural Mutual's executive vice president and CEO.
Rural Mutual has also been recognized as a Ward's top 50-U.S. property and casualty company. Nearly 2,900 companies are reviewed nationally, meaning Rural Mutual ranks in the top two percent. Even more impressive, this is the 16th straight year Rural Mutual has made this exclusive list.
While other insurance companies have been adversely affected by inflation, extreme weather, and the reinsurance market, Merk says it's no accident Rural Mutual continues to excel and shine in the face of these challenges.
"The dedication, loyalty, and hard work of our agents, field employees, and home office staff have made this possible for yet another year," added Merk. "I couldn't be more proud of our people."
Rural Mutual is celebrating its 90th anniversary this year, only does business in Wisconsin, and is the number one insurer of Wisconsin farms.
