Fitch rates Credit Bank of Moscow bonds BB-

Fitch Ratings said it assigned an expected BB- rating to CBOM Finance plc's (Ireland) upcoming issue of euro-denominated senior unsecured bonds.

CBOM Finance, an Irish special purpose vehicle issuing the bonds, will be on-lending the proceeds to Russia's Credit Bank of Moscow.

The issue size and the coupon rate are yet to be determined, while the tenor is expected to be three- to five-years, Fitch said.

The proceeds will be used for general banking purposes.

The rating on the bonds is in line with the bank's long-term issuer default rating of BB- as the notes will represent unconditional senior unsecured obligations of the bank, Fitch said.

The ratings reflect the bank's relatively big franchise, strong pre-impairment profitability, decent core capitalization, and comfortable liquidity and funding profile, the agency said.

The rating factors in potential weakness in asset quality, Fitch added.
