Maitland, Fla. (June 1, 2026) – Westcor Land Title Insurance Company® is proud to announce global credit rating agency AM Best has assigned the underwriter a Financial Strength Rating of A-(Excellent) and a Long-Term Issuer Credit Rating of “a-” (Excellent).
According to AM Best in a press release, “the ratings reflect Westcor’s balance sheet strength, which AM Best assesses as very strong, as well as its adequate operating performance, neutral business profile and appropriate enterprise risk management.”
The agency noted that Westcor’s balance sheet strength is supported by the company’s strongest level of risk-adjusted capitalization, as measured by Best’s Capital Adequacy Ratio (BCAR), in addition to surplus growth driven primarily through internally generated capital from profitable underwriting, investment, and overall operations.
“We are extremely proud to receive an A- rating from AM Best, which reflects the strength of our organization, our disciplined growth strategy, and the unwavering commitment of our team and agents nationwide,” said Steven Black, President and Chief Operating Officer of Westcor. “This achievement is more than a milestone for Westcor, it is a powerful validation of the trust our customers and partners place in us every day. The AM Best rating positions us to expand opportunities across the marketplace, particularly in the commercial sector, where demonstrated financial strength and stability are critical. We believe this recognition will further enhance our ability to compete, grow, and deliver exceptional value to our clients and partners for years to come.”
As the fifth largest underwriter in the United States, Westcor has experienced continued growth and stability despite challenging macroeconomic conditions, including rising interest rates and a slowdown in the real estate sector.
“The company’s stable outlooks reflect AM Best’s expectation that Westcor will continue to maintain its very strong level of balance sheet strength and adequate operating performance despite fluctuations in the housing market and the associated effects of broader economic moderation,” the agency concluded.
These ratings reflect Westcor’s commitment to delivering exceptional service, supporting independent agents, and investing strategically in innovation and operational excellence.
