American Equity Management Efficiency

American Equity's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well American Equity manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
American Equity Investment has 864.55 M in debt with debt to equity (D/E) ratio of 0.27, which may show that the company is not taking advantage of profits from borrowing. American Equity Inve has a current ratio of 0.48, suggesting that it has not enough short term capital to pay financial commitments when the payables are due. Note however, debt could still be an excellent tool for American to invest in growth at high rates of return.
