judged to be of the highest quality with
minimal credit risk.
A credit rating is not a recommendation
to buy, sell or hold securities and may
be revised or withdrawn by the rating
agency at any time. Each rating should be
evaluated independently of any other
rating.

rating allocated to bonds issued under
