Moody's rates MCC bonds A1

Moody's Investors Service said it assigned a definitive A1 rating to the $500 million 2½% credit-enhanced bonds due 2017 issued by MCC Holding (Hong Kong) Corp. Ltd. The issuer is a subsidiary of Metallurgical Corp. of China Ltd., which in turn is a subsidiary of China Metallurgical Group Corp. (Baa3/stable). The outlook is stable.

The bonds are supported by an irrevocable and standby letter of credit from the Agricultural Bank of China Ltd. (A1/P-1/D+/stable).

The agency said the A1 rating of the bonds is at the same level as Agricultural Bank of China's long-term foreign-currency deposit rating because the bonds are fully supported by an irrevocable dollar-denominated standby letter of credit provided by the bank.
