Fitch rates Old Mutual debt BBB

Fitch Ratings said it assigned Old Mutual plc's senior debt issue a rating of BBB in line with the insurer's existing senior debt.

The proceeds of the £500 million senior debt issue are expected to be used to refinance the company's €100 million senior debt maturing in December 2009 and for general corporate purposes, Fitch said.

The debt was issued under the company's €3.5 billion euro note program and is fixed-rate with a semi-annual coupon rate of 7.125% and a term of seven years.

Fitch said it expects the company's interest coverage and equity-adjusted leverage ratios to remain at levels commensurate with the group's ratings.
