TRIS Rating has affirmed the company rating on Ananda Development Plc (ANAN) and the ratings on ANAN’s senior unsecured debentures at “BBB”.
It has also affirmed the ratings on ANAN’s existing unsecured subordinated perpetual debentures (hybrid debentures) at “BB+”. At the same time, TRIS Rating assigns the rating to ANAN’s proposed issue of up to Bt2,000 million in hybrid debentures at “BB+”.
