The credit rating agency said that the ratings continue to reflect the bank's healthy capitalisation and established market position in the small and medium enterprise (SME) segment, driven by an established track record of sustainable and calibrated growth in advances, comfortable asset quality and stable management team.
These strengths are partially offset by the moderate earnings profile, which may remain muted in the near to medium term, average resource profile with relatively lower share of CASA deposits, and the modest scale of operations in the overall banking system.
