Global credit rating agency, Fitch Ratings has assigned IDBI Bank (BBB-/Stable) proposed US dollar-denominated senior unsecured debt an expected rating of ‘BBB-(EXP)’. The senior unsecured instruments are rated at the same level as the bank’s Issuer Default Rating (IDR).
The bank’s IDR is driven by its Support Rating Floor of ‘BBB-‘, which is higher than its Viability Rating of ‘BB’, and reflects Fitch’s expectation of a high probability of extraordinary support from the Government of India, if necessary.
