Canara Bank's US$3 Billion MTN Programme Ratings Confirmed by Fitch Ratings
Fitch Ratings has confirmed Canara Bank's ratings for its US$3 Billion Medium Term Note Programme. The Senior Unsecured Long-Term Rating is ‘BBB-’ and the Senior Unsecured Long-Term Rating (xgs) is ‘BB (xgs)’. This confirmation is based on recent updates and financial information.
While a rating confirmation is positive, it does not represent an upgrade or a new rating. The impact is considered medium as it reaffirms the bank's existing creditworthiness for its debt program, which is important for its borrowing costs and investor confidence.
The confirmation of existing ratings by a reputable agency like Fitch Ratings for a significant medium-term note program is generally viewed positively, indicating stability and confidence in the bank's financial standing.
Canara Bank has received a rating confirmation from Fitch Ratings for its US$3,000,000,000 Medium Term Note Programme. Fitch has assigned a Senior Unsecured Long-Term Rating of ‘BBB-’ and a Senior Unsecured Long-Term Rating (xgs) of ‘BB (xgs)’.
This confirmation follows an update to the programme, as outlined in documents sent on 14 September 2026. Fitch stated that the update will not result in a withdrawal or downgrade of the existing ratings. The ratings are confirmed with respect to the programme itself, and not necessarily to individual notes issued under it.
The confirmation is based on information provided to Fitch, including financial statements for the three months ended June 30, 2026, and for the financial years ended March 31, 2026, March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024. Fitch emphasized that its ratings are subject to ongoing review and can be affected by future events or conditions.
