Referring to the current report no 20/2011 dated July 13, 2011 the Management Board of Kredyt Bank S.A. informs that KBC Group has made publicly known today the press release which inter alia includes the following:
“KBC Group today received approval from the European Commission to amend its 2009 strategic plan and to divest its banking (Kredyt Bank) and insurance activities (Warta) in Poland and sell or unwind selected ABS and CDO assets instead of floating minority stakes of CSOB Bank (Czech Republic) and of K&H Bank (Hungary) and selling and leasing back its headquarter offices in Belgium.”

The Bank's rating (correction of the information included) - 21/2011

The Management Board of Kredyt Bank S.A. informs that Fitch Ratings has placed on July 14, 2011 Kredyt Bank's 'A-' Long-term Issuer Default Rating (IDR) on Rating Watch Evolving (RWE). The rating action follows the announcement by KB's majority shareholder, Belgium's KBC Bank that it intends to sell its 80% stake in KB.

The RWE on KB's Long-term and Short-term IDRs reflects Fitch's view that the bank's IDRs could be upgraded if KB is bought by an entity with a higher rating than KBC. Conversely, if KB is sold to a buyer with a weaker ability to support the bank, KB's IDRs could be downgraded.

Fitch has placed KB's Support Rating of '1' on Rating Watch Negative (RWN) to reflect the fact that this rating could be downgraded if the bank is purchased by an entity with a lower rating than KBC. If the sale was to a stronger entity, or the sale fails to go through, the Support Rating would likely be affirmed at its current level. Fitch believes that prior to the actual sale, the probability that KBC would support KB remains extremely high, despite KBC's intention to divest its Polish subsidiary.

Fitch does not expect KB's Individual Rating to be significantly affected if the sale goes ahead. The rating actions are as follows:
Long-term foreign currency IDR: affirmed at 'A-'; placed on Rating Watch Evolving
Short-term foreign currency IDR: affirmed at 'F2'; placed on Rating Watch Evolving
Individual Rating: affirmed at 'C/D';
Support Rating: affirmed at '1' placed on Rating Watch Negative

Assigning of rating - 19/2011

The Management Board of Kredyt Bank S.A. reveals that it was informed on June 22, 2011 that the FitchRatings has assigned Kredyt Bank S.A. :
Long-term Issuer Default Rating (IDR) of ‘A-‘ with Stable Outlook,
Short-term IDR of ‘F2’,
Support Rating of ‘1’,
Individual Rating of ‘C/D’.
FitchRatings pays attention that Long-term and Short-term ratings reflect high potential support that Kredyt Bank S.A. can expect to receive from its majority sharholder – KBC.
Assigning individual rating Fitch Ratings took into consideration inter alia: fast pre-crisis expansion of the loan book, risks embedded in the substantial exposure to foreign-currency mortgages, quality of the loan portfolio as well as the capitalization level.
In the opinion of the Agency these factors are balanced by the adequate liquidity and improved funding structure.
