Moody’s Investors, Fitch give BPI highest ratings

The Bank of the Philippine Islands (BPI) is now the only Philippine bank rated investment-grade by two international rating agencies, Moody’s Investors Service and Fitch Ratings.

Moody’s Investors Service views the credit profile of BPI to be among the “most defensive and best positioned to withstand a cyclical downturn among Moody’s rated banks in the Philippines.”
