Standard & Poor's (S&P) has placed all the long-term ratings, including AAA counterparty credit and insurer financial strength ratings, on Munich Re and its subsidiaries on CreditWatch with negative implications.

This move follows Munich Re's announcement yesterday that it would pump $2bn into its unprofitable American Re unit.

This is the second time in eight months that it has shored up the business with additional funds.
