S&P rates Georgian Railway bond B+

Standard & Poor's said it assigned a B+ rating to the proposed $250 million senior unsecured bond due 2015 issued by Georgian Railway LLC.

The rating is subject to final documents.

The company is wholly owned by the government of Georgia.

The proceeds will partly fund Georgian Railway's high capital expenditure program, which will increase freight transit capacity and reduce operating costs, the agency said.
