Management's conservative approach to reserves and investments has generated consistent investment income supporting operating profits.
Notable challenges include volatility in premium volume due to non-standard surety market changes and significant stockholder dividends reducing policyholder's surplus for debt service and stock repurchases. However, ACSTAR maintains sufficient risk-adjusted capitalization to support its balance sheet strength assessment.

Despite this, AM Best anticipates improved opportunities from recent infrastructure legislation.
