Moody's keeps MF Global on review
Moody's Investors Service said it is continuing the review of MF Global Ltd.'s Baa1 long-term issuer rating, which was placed on review for downgrade on Feb. 28.
According to the agency, the review focuses on MF Global's plans to achieve a stable long-term capital structure and the company's risk management practices in light of trading losses suffered as a result of unauthorized trading by one of its employees.
Moody's noted that extending the maturity profile of its debt remains a critical near-term prerequisite to maintaining the Baa1 rating.
The firm's rating is supported by the company's low-risk business model, its diversification and market-leading position in the growing futures trading industry, the agency said.
MF Global was formerly Man Financial Inc.
