    And A.M. Best has had several carriers listed with NEGATIVE implications for almost a year, but won’t pull the trigger on downgrading. Get with it AM Best – you’re waiting too long to get serious about the trouble some of these regionals are in.

    There are about a dozen carriers that AM Best has had marked with negative implications for a year or more. Hmmm, they can’t figure out how negative the implications are in more than a year? No, they just don’t want to pull the plug on downgrading so many of their buddies. A couple of these are regionals in deep trouble, with multiple years well over 100 combined, and deep in reserve troubles. They are millions short in WC reserves
