DBRS Publishes Updated Global Methodology for Rating Banks and Banking Organisations

DBRS has published the 2018 update of its “Global Methodology for Rating Banks and Banking Organisations” (GBM). This update has no material analytical changes from the 2017 edition, and therefore no rating changes have followed its adoption. DBRS did not receive any comments on the methodology during the recent Request for Comment period.

The key sections are:
• Approach to Rating Banks and Banking Organisations
• Determining the Intrinsic Assessment
• Support Assessments
• Rating Bank Holding Companies and Bank Obligations

Notes:
DBRS criteria and methodologies are publicly available on its website www.dbrs.com under Methodologies.
