S&P trims Hyundai Card, Hyundai Capital

S&P said it lowered the long-term issuer credit rating on Hyundai Card Co. Ltd. to BBB from BBB+.

The outlook is stable.

At the same time, the agency lowered the long-term issuer and issue credit ratings on Hyundai Capital Services Inc. to BBB+ from A-.

S&P also affirmed the A-2 short-term issuer credit rating.

“We downgraded HCS and HCC to reflect a similar action on their parents Hyundai Motor Co. (HMC) and Kia Motors Corp.,” the agency said in a news release.

“As of end June 2018, HMC and its affiliates own about 80% of HCS and about 73% of HCC. We expect HCS to remain a core subsidiary of Hyundai Motor group at least for the coming two years, and the rating on HCS will move in tandem with the group credit profile (GCP).”
