Fitch boosts DP World

Fitch Ratings said it upgraded DP World Ltd.'s (DPW) long-term issuer default and senior unsecured ratings to BBB+ from BBB-. Fitch also hiked DP World Crescent Ltd.’s senior unsecured notes to BBB+ from BBB-.

Concurrently, the agency boosted DP World Salaam’s $1.5 billion of hybrid capital perpetual instruments to BBB- from BB+.

“The upgrade reflects DPW's successful deleveraging to below 4x group net debt to EBITDA (pre IFRS-16) at end-2022, in line with management's commitment. Leverage had peaked at around 6.4x in 2020 due to its debt-funded privatization,” Fitch said in a press release.

The outlook is stable.
