The rating agency Moody's has recalibrated ratings of Italian banks in the context of a broader review of over 100 Western European banks and of firms with global capital markets operations. Moody's has confirmed UniCredit SpA's 'C-' stand-alone rating ("Bank Financial Strength Rating" or "BFSR") however changed the mapping to baa2 from baa1 and aligned the long-term deposit and debt rating with Italy at 'A3' with negative outlook (from 'A2'). As a consequence the short-term rating has been lowered to 'Prime-2' from 'Prime-1'.
The agency said that it "expects to conclude the reviews by end of June" which also includes other companies of the UniCredit group.
