Moody's assigns B2 to Nurbank (Kazakhstan) bond issue; negative outlook

Moody's assigns B2 to Nurbank (Kazakhstan) bond issue; negative outlook

Moscow, February 09, 2010 -- Moody's Investors Service has today assigned a B2 long-term local currency debt rating to the local currency-denominated bond issue of JSC Nurbank (Kazakhstan). The bond represents a senior unsecured claim on the bank. The outlook on local currency debt rating is negative in line with the negative outlook on the bank's long-term deposit ratings.

The total volume of Nurbank's senior unsecured bond issue is KZT16 billion (approximately USD108 million); its maturity is five years and the interest rate is fixed for the first year and is linked to the Kazakhstan Consumer Price Index for the remaining tenure. The obligations of Nurbank to make payments under the senior unsecured bond issue will rank -- at all times -- at least pari-passu with the claims of all other unsecured and unsubordinated creditors of the bank, except for those claims that are preferred by any relevant law.

Moody's previous rating action on Nurbank was on 24 February 2009, when the rating agency downgraded the bank's foreign currency deposit rating and local currency deposit rating to B2 from B1 reflecting the increasingly negative impact of the global economic crisis on the Kazakh economy and its financial institutions.
