JACKSONVILLE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Jacksonville-based MedMal Direct Insurance Company’s Financial Stability Rating® (FSR) of A, Exceptional, has been reaffirmed by Demotech, Inc. This level of FSR 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.

FSRs utilize statutory financial data based on insurance accounting principles prescribed or permitted by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC).
