#141- Picking The Right Insurance Carrier with Comdex Score

The Kuderna Podcast

Host and Certified Financial Planner, Bryan Kuderna, discusses the importance of protection in personal finance and focuses on insurance and how to pick the right insurance carrier. He emphasizes the need to understand the language and terms of insurance contracts and the importance of planning for unexpected events. Bryan also highlights the difference between price and cost, and the role of quality and value in insurance decisions. He introduces the Comdex ranking as a tool to evaluate the credit worthiness of insurance carriers. Comdex is not a rating, but a composite of all ratings that a company has received from the major rating agencies (A.M. Best, Standard & Poor's, Moody's, and Fitch). Comdex percentile ranks the companies, on a scale of 1 to 100 (with 100 being the best). Ratings are as of 3.26.24 and are subject to change.
