A.M. Best Co. on Wednesday said it has downgraded the financial strength ratings of three property insurers associated with Gainesville-based Tower Hill Insurance Group from B (Fair) to D (Poor).
The ratings agency also said Tower Hill management asked A.M. Best to remove the companies from its interactive rating process.
A.M. Best said it was concerned about the companies’ hurricane exposure and whether they had sufficient reinsurance to handle claims from a severe hurricane.
The three companies are Tower Hill Preferred Insurance Co., Tower Hill Prime Insurance Co., and Omega Insurance Co.
