Fitch: Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank AAA

Fitch Ratings said it assigned Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) a long-term issuer default rating of AAA and a short-term issuer default rating of F1+.

The outlook is stable.

Fitch said the ratings are based on the bank’s existing and expected intrinsic strengths.

Created in 2015, AIIB has been endowed with a substantial capital base which, in the agency’s view, will support the projected rapid expansion in lending; exposure to risk will be mitigated by a comprehensive set of policies and by high quality governance.

AIIB enjoys an excellent level of liquidity and should benefit from easy access to capital markets, Fitch added.
