Flemington, NJ, September 12, 2023 — Farmers Insurance Company of Flemington announced today that its Financial Strength Rating (FSR) of A- Excellent has been affirmed by AM Best Rating Services, the world’s oldest and most authoritative insurance rating and information source. The company’s Issuer Credit Rating (ICR) of a-, Excellent was also affirmed and the outlook for both ratings is Stable.

A Best’s Financial Strength Rating (FSR) is an independent opinion of an insurer’s financial strength and ability to meet its ongoing insurance policy and contract obligations.
