24.06.2021 - Report 25/2021: Maintaining the ratings and stable outlook of Bank Pekao S.A. by S&P Global Ratings

Bank Polska Kasa Opieki Spółka Akcyjna (the "Bank") informs that on 24 June 2021 rating agency S&P Global Ratings (the "S&P") informed the Bank about maintaining the ratings of the Bank at the current level with the stable outlook.

The ratings for the Bank are as follows:

Long-term rating: "BBB+"

Outlook: "Stable"

Short-term rating: "A-2"

Stand-alone credit profile: "bbb+"

According to S&P, the ratings of the Bank reflects its strong franchise as one of the top 3 universal banks in Poland and its strong capital buffer. The Bank's exposure to legacy CHF loans is not material, according to S&P, and in case of any unlikely adverse scenarios, the Bank could benefit from the support of its state-controlled strategic investor, PZU Group.

The stable outlook reflects that on Pekao's largest investor, PZU.
