“The ratings are based on our assessments of BSTDB's extremely strong financial and moderate enterprise risk profiles. Although the bank's financial strength underpins the ratings, credit constraints stem from its policy role and the overall relevance of its funding contribution”
S&P Rating Services. Research Update: Black Sea Trade and Development Bank, July17th, 2019 -
“The Black Sea Trade and Development Bank's (A2 stable) credit strengths include its robust capital base and low leverage, both of which have been strengthened by the doubling in subscribed capital over the last 10 years. In addition, the bank has a substantial stock of liquid assets and benefits from its shareholders' strong willingness but weak ability to support the institution.”
