A.M. Best Assigns Rating to National General Holdings Corp.’s Senior Unsecured Notes

A.M. Best has assigned an issue rating of “bbb-” to the $100 million tranche of 6.75% senior unsecured notes, due May 2024, recently announced by National General Holdings Corp. (NGHC) (headquartered in New York, NY) [NASDAQ: NGHC]. The assigned outlook is stable. All existing ratings of NGHC and its subsidiaries are unchanged.

Following issuance of the notes, NGHC’s unadjusted and adjusted debt-to-capital ratios will remain in-line with A.M. Best’s guidelines for the current ratings, as will its coverage ratios.
