RBS Group welcomes credit ratings action by S&P
The Royal Bank of Scotland Group plc ("RBSG" and, together with its subsidiaries, the "Group") welcomes the decision by the credit rating agency Standard & Poor's (S&P) to upgrade the long term issuer credit ratings of RBSG and each of the Group entities listed below by one notch. S&P also upgraded the short term issuer credit ratings of RBSG and the UK ring-fenced entities and the issue ratings on all outstanding debt instruments of RBSG and its subsidiaries.
S&P summary credit ratings are now as follows:
Long Term Short Term rating Rating The Royal Bank of Scotland Group plc BBB A-2 Entities inside the Ring-Fence National Westminster Bank Plc A A-1 The Royal Bank of Scotland plc A A-1 Ulster Bank Limited A A-1 Ulster Bank Ireland DAC A- A-2 Entities Outside the Ring-Fence NatWest Markets Plc A- A-2 NatWest Markets N.V. A- A-2 NatWest Markets Securities Inc. A- A-2 Royal Bank of Scotland International A- A-2 Ltd.
In a statement, S&P said, "the one-notch upgrade reflects RBSG's strengthened credit fundamentals following a long period of restructuring and refocusing. It has addressed the majority of legacy assets and legal risks, maintained a robust capital position, and laid the foundations for improved cost efficiency and earnings." In addition, in their view, "RBSG's strengthened balance sheet and improving earnings enhance its capacity to manage current U.K. political and economic uncertainties."
The stable ratings outlook reflects S&P's expectation that the Group will maintain robust balance sheet metrics and strengthen its earnings toward management's targets.
