New Delhi: Credit rating agency Fitch on Friday assigned a stable outlook to Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone (APSEZ).
Fitch Ratings has assigned APSEZ a final long-term Foreign Currency Issuer Default Rating (IDR) of 'BBB-'. The outlook is stable, it said in statement.
"The agency has also assigned APSEZ a final senior unsecured rating of 'BBB-' and assigned the company's USD 650 million 3.5 percent senior unsecured notes due 2020 a final rating of 'BBB-'," it said.
