S&P ups Wethaq view to stable
Standard and Poor's said it revised the outlook on Wethaq Takaful Insurance Co. to stable from negative.
The agency also said it affirmed the BB long-term counterparty credit and insurer financial strength ratings.
The outlook revision reflects a belief that despite substantial asset write-downs and the parent's financial troubles, Wethaq has sustained operations in Kuwait and launched a new business in Egypt, S&P said.
Wethaq's business and financial profiles are consistent with the current ratings, the agency added.
The ratings also consider its marginal competitive position and aggressive investments, S&P said.
