Buckle, a financial services company serving the gig economy and rising middle class, announced its licensed carrier, the Gateway Insurance Company, has been assigned the Financial Stability Rating® of A, Exceptional by Demotech, Inc., based on year-end 2021 results.

Financial stability ratings are a leading indicator of the financial stability of property and casualty insurers and title underwriters. In 2020, Buckle announced the acquisition and recapitalization of Gateway, including its 47 state insurance licenses.

“Buckle is pleased to once more receive this exceptional rating for Gateway. It underscores our dedication to supporting rideshare and delivery drivers, as well as our partners across the insurance ecosystem, with excellent, fair, and accessible insurance products,” said Kristi Matus, CFO and COO of Buckle.

This level of financial stability rating is assigned to insurers who possess exceptional financial stability related to maintaining positive surplus as regards to policyholders, liquidity of invested assets, an acceptable level of financial leverage, reasonable loss and loss adjustment expense reserves, and realistic pricing.

Financial stability ratings summarize Demotech’s opinion of the financial stability of an insurer regardless of general economic conditions or the phase of the underwriting cycle. They utilize statutory financial data based on insurance accounting principles prescribed or permitted by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC).
