Our earlier coverage of Fitch’s rating action on Sampath Bank’s planned Basel III-compliant subordinated debentures explained that the bank was moving ahead with a rupee-denominated Tier 2 issuance to bolster regulatory capital and support lending growth. We also noted that Fitch assigned the notes a final National Long-Term Rating of A(lka) and rated them below the bank’s AA-(lka) rating due to loss-severity considerations, with the instrument rating expected to move in line with changes to the bank’s core rating.
