On November 28 Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's") affirmed Hoist Finance AB (publ)'s (Hoist) ratings, including its Baa3/P-3 long- and short-term Counterparty Risk Ratings (CRR), the Baa3 senior unsecured debt ratings, the Baa3/P-3 long- and short-term issuer ratings, senior unsecured MTN (P)Baa3 ratings, the junior senior unsecured MTN (P)Ba2 ratings, the subordinate MTN (P)Ba3 rating and the subordinate Ba3 rating. The outlooks on the long-term issuer ratings and senior unsecured debt ratings were changed to positive from negative.

"Our retail deposits platform is at the very core of our funding model, and unique to our sector. It provides Hoist Finance with a strong competitive edge especially in this higher-for- longer interest rate environment. It supports our investment pace in new portfolios and our long-term profitability. That our funding structure alongside our increased performance is now broadly recognised in our ratings outlook is another step forward for us in our journey towards becoming the leading NPL asset manager in Europe", says Harry Vranjes CEO of Hoist Finance.
