Moody's Counterparty Risk Ratings are opinions of the ability of entities to honor the uncollateralized portion of non-debt counterparty financial liabilities (CRR liabilities) and also reflect the expected financial losses in the event that such liabilities are not honored. CRR liabilities typically relate to transactions with unrelated parties. Examples of CRR liabilities include the uncollateralized portion of payables arising from derivatives transactions and the uncollateralized portion of liabilities under sale and repurchase agreements. CRRs are not applicable to funding commitments or other obligations associated with covered bonds, letters of credit, guarantees, servicer and trustee obligations, and other similar obligations that arise from a bank performing its essential operating functions.
Moody's could upgrade HDFC Bank's senior unsecured debt and deposit ratings if Moody's upgrades India's sovereign rating.
Downward pressure on HDFC Bank's BCA could arise from: (1) a sustained deterioration in impaired loans or loan-loss reserves; (2) a significantly higher new NPL formation rate than previously experienced; (3) a decline in earnings, leading to a significant decrease in internal capital generation; or (4) a downgrade in the sovereign foreign-currency debt rating.
