The AM Best Business Trilogy

In 1899, Alfred M. Best started working out of a one-room office in New York City. At the time, he didn’t realize he was not only starting a company, but creating the world's first credit rating agency. Since then, AM Best has grown to become the largest credit rating agency in the world specializing in the insurance industry, as well as a news publisher and data analytics provider.

The AM Best Business Trilogy tells the story of AM Best, its founder, and the credit rating industry.
