New York, April 3 (FinanceEnquiry.com) – Standard & Poor’s Rating Services updated its outlook on WellPoint Inc (NYSE: WLP) from STABLE to POSITIVE, and assigned ‘A-/A-2′ counterparty credit rating.
Moreover, it affirmed ‘A+’ counter party credit and financial strength ratings on WellPoint’s core operating companies and ‘BBB’ financial strength rating on UNICARE Life & Health Insurance Co, which is a non-strategic subsidiary of WellPoint. The core factors guiding the affirmation and outlook revision include uninterrupted strength of its business profile, compared to its peer group and the sector overall.
