S&P affirms Banco Votorantim
Standard & Poor's said it affirmed its BB-/B foreign currency and BB/B local currency credit ratings on Banco Votorantim SA. The outlook remains stable.
S&P said the ratings on Banco Votorantim incorporate the potential risks associated with the bank's treasury business, its exposure to sovereign risk through its government securities portfolio and the risks associated with the volatile economic environment in Brazil that might cause asset quality deterioration.
The ratings benefit from the implicit support of the Votorantim Group (BB-/stable/--; LC: BBB-/stable/--), the group's strong brand name and the bank's good profitability, according to S&P. The ratings also factor in the bank's experienced management team and efficient decision-making processes.
