About Us

1) These ratings are provided to you so that you can make a comparison of American National Insurance Company to other companies. Ratings reflect current independent opinions of the financial capacity of an insurance organization to meet the obligations of its insurance policies and contracts in accordance with their terms. They are based on each rating agency’s quantitative and qualitative evaluations of the company and its management strategy. The rating agencies do not provide ratings as a recommendation to purchase insurance or annuities. The ratings are not a warranty of an insurer’s current or future ability to meet its contractual obligations. Although the formal rating process typically occurs once a year, rating modifications can be made at any time.

Best Company, independent analysts of the insurance industry since 1899, assigns annual ratings after an extensive analysis using a series of profitability, leverage and liquidity tests that measure performance in such vital areas as competency of underwriting, control of expenses, adequacy of reserves, soundness of investments, and capital sufficiency.
