MOODY'S ANNOUNCES RATING IMPACT OF JOINT DEFAULT ANALYSIS (JDA) METHODOLOGY FOR CORPORATE GRIs IN ASIA PACIFIC

14 Jul 2005
MOODY'S ANNOUNCES RATING IMPACT OF JOINT DEFAULT ANALYSIS (JDA) METHODOLOGY FOR CORPORATE GRIs IN ASIA PACIFIC

Hong Kong, July 14, 2005 -- Moody's Investors Service published today the results of an examination of the ratings of corporate government-related entities in Asia Pacific (including Japan) in light of the introduction of its new rating methodology for Joint Default Analysis (JDA).

In April 2005, Moody's published a Rating Methodology report, entitled "The Application of Joint-Default Analysis to Government-Related Issuers". The new methodology formally disaggregates the ratings of GRIs into four components: (i) an assessment of the GRI's baseline credit risk, (ii) the default risk of the supporting government, (iii) the default dependence between the GRI and the government, and (iv) the expected level of support from the government.

The application of the new methodology resulted in 21 ratings upgraded and 39 ratings affirmed.

Below is a list of all corporate GRIs in Asia Pacific covered by the new rating methodology, together with details of all rating actions taken.

As previously indicated, in addition to the ratings assigned to issuers and debt securities, Moody's has also published ranges of methodology inputs for each GRI, as follows:

- Baseline credit assessment, on a scale of 1 (lowest credit risk) to 6 (highest credit risk)

- Foreign/domestic currency ratings of the supporting government/GRI shareholder (as published by Moody's)

- Dependence, expressed as low, medium or high

- Support, expressed as low, medium or high

For details of these input ranges for individual GRIs, please refer to Moody's Special Comment entitled "Rating Corporate Government-Related Entities in Asia Pacific", also published today, which outlines the ranges of inputs and rating outcomes for every corporate GRI in Asia Pacific by country.
