Moody's downgraded to Baa3(hyb) from Baa2(hyb) the debt rating of the EUR400 million Tier 2 Notes due 2041 and of the CHF105 million perpetual Tier 2 notes issued by SRLEV N.V., reflecting the one notch downgrade of SRLEV's IFSR. Moody's also downgraded to Ba3(hyb) from Ba2(hyb) the rating of the EUR250 million 6.258% capital securities issued by SNS REAAL N.V., reflecting the one notch downgrade of SNS REAAL's senior debt rating. These ratings were assigned a negative outlook to reflect the low to moderate risk of a coupon skip requested by the European Commission (EC), as the securities allows SRLEV and SNS REAAL to defer interest payments at any time.
Although Moody's notes that the EC has not requested that SNS REAAL defers any coupon on its hybrid securities, including those allowing for optional deferral, when it approved the capital support provided by the Dutch State to the Group in 2008, Moody's believes that this political risk will persist as long as the Group has not fully repaid the State Aid.
