A-1 |
A short-term obligation rated ‘A-1’ is rated in the highest category by S&P Global
Ratings. The obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation is
strong. Within this category, certain obligations are designated with a plus
sign (+). This indicates that the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial
commitments on these obligations is extremely strong. |
A-2 |
A short-term obligation rated ‘A-2’ is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects
of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than obligations in higher rating
categories. However, the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial
commitments on the obligation is satisfactory. |
A-3 |
A short-term obligation rated ‘A-3’ exhibits adequate protection parameters. However,
adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to weaken an
obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the
obligation. |
B |
A short-term obligation rated ‘B’ is regarded as vulnerable and has significant
speculative characteristics. The obligor currently has the capacity to meet its financial
commitments; however, it faces major ongoing uncertainties that could lead to
the obligor’s inadequate capacity to meet its financial
commitments. |
C |
A short-term obligation rated ‘C’ is currently vulnerable to nonpayment and is
dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions for the obligor
to meet its financial commitments on the obligation. |
D |
A short-term obligation rated ‘D’ is in default or in breach of an imputed promise. For
non-hybrid capital instruments, the ‘D’ rating category is used when payments on
an obligation are not made on the date due, unless S&P Global Ratings
believes that such payments will be made within any stated grace period.
However, any stated grace period longer than five business days will be treated
as five business days. The ‘D’ rating also will be used upon the
filing of a bankruptcy petition or the taking of a similar action and where
default on an obligation is a virtual certainty, for example due to automatic stay
provisions. A rating on an obligation is lowered to ‘D’ if it is subject to a
distressed debt restructuring. |
F1 |
HIGHEST SHORT-TERM CREDIT QUALITY. Indicates the strongest intrinsic capacity for timely payment of financial commitments; may have an added “+” to
denote any exceptionally strong credit feature. |
F2 |
GOOD SHORT-TERM CREDIT QUALITY. Good intrinsic capacity for timely payment of financial commitments. |
F3 |
FAIR SHORT-TERM CREDIT QUALITY. The intrinsic capacity for timely payment of financial commitments is adequate. |
B |
SPECULATIVE SHORT-TERM CREDIT QUALITY. Minimal capacity for timely payment of financial commitments, plus heightened vulnerability to near term adverse changes in financial and economic conditions. |
C |
HIGH SHORT-TERM DEFAULT RISK. Default is a real possibility. |
RD |
RESTRICTED DEFAULT. Indicates an entity that has defaulted on one or more of its financial commitments, although it continues to meet other financial obligations. Typically applicable to entity ratings only. |
D |
DEFAULT. Indicates a broad-based default event for an entity, or the default of a short-
term obligation. |
P-1 |
Ratings of Prime-1 reflect a superior ability to repay short-term debt obligations. |
P-2 |
Ratings of Prime-2 reflect a strong ability to repay short-term debt obligations. |
P-3 |
Ratings of Prime-3 reflect an acceptable ability to repay short-term obligations. |
NP |
Issuers (or supporting institutions) rated Not Prime do not fall within any of the Prime
rating categories. |
R-1 (high) |
Highest credit quality. The capacity for the payment of short-term financial obligations
as they fall due is exceptionally high. Unlikely to be adversely affected by future
events. |
R-1 (middle) |
Superior credit quality. The capacity for the payment of short-term financial obligations
as they fall due is very high. Differs from R-1 (high) by a relatively modest degree.
Unlikely to be significantly vulnerable to future events. |
R-1 (low) |
Good credit quality. The capacity for the payment of short-term financial obligations as
they fall due is substantial. Overall strength is not as favorable as higher rating
categories. May be vulnerable to future events, but qualifying negative factors
are considered manageable. |
R-2 (high) |
Upper end of adequate credit quality. The capacity for the payment of short-term financial obligations as they fall due is acceptable. May be vulnerable to future events. |
R-2 (middle) |
Adequate credit quality. The capacity for the payment of short-term financial obligations as they fall due is acceptable. May be vulnerable to future events or may be
exposed to other factors that could reduce credit quality. |
R-2 (low) |
Lower end of adequate credit quality. The capacity for the payment of short-term financial obligations as they fall due is acceptable. May be vulnerable to future events.
A number of challenges are present that could affect the issuer’s ability to meet such
obligations. |
R-3 |
Lowest end of adequate credit quality. There is a capacity for the payment of short-term
financial obligations as they fall due. May be vulnerable to future events and the
certainty of meeting such obligations could be impacted by a variety of
developments. |
R-4 |
Speculative credit quality. The capacity for the payment of short-term financial obligations as they fall due is uncertain. |
R-5 |
Highly speculative credit quality. There is a high level of uncertainty as to the capacity
to meet short-term financial obligations as they fall due. |
D |
When the issuer has filed under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or winding up statute or there is a failure to satisfy an obligation after the exhaustion of grace periods,
a downgrade to D may occur. DBRS Morningstar may also use SD (Selective Default)
in cases where only some securities are impacted, such as the case of a “distressed
exchange.” |
AAA |
An obligation rated ‘AAA’ has the highest rating assigned by S&P Global Ratings. The
obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation is extremely
strong. |
AA |
An obligation rated ‘AA’ differs from the highest-rated obligations only to a small
degree. The obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation is
very strong. |
A |
An obligation rated ‘A’ is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes
in circumstances and economic conditions than obligations in higher-rated categories.
However, the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the
obligation is still strong. |
BBB |
An obligation rated ‘BBB’ exhibits adequate protection parameters. However, adverse
economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to weaken the obligor’s
capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation.
|
BB,B,CCC,CC and C |
Obligations rated ‘BB’, ‘B’, ‘CCC’, ‘CC’, and ‘C’ are regarded as having significant
speculative characteristics. ‘BB’ indicates the least degree of speculation and
‘C’ the highest. While such obligations will likely have some
quality and protective characteristics, these may be outweighed by large
uncertainties or major exposure to adverse conditions. |
BB |
An obligation rated ‘BB’ is less vulnerable to nonpayment than other speculative issues.
However, it faces major ongoing uncertainties or exposure to adverse business,
financial, or economic conditions that could lead to the obligor’s inadequate capacity
to meet its financial commitments on the obligation. |
B |
An obligation rated ‘B’ is more vulnerable to nonpayment than obligations rated ‘BB’,
but the obligor currently has the capacity to meet its financial commitments on the
obligation. Adverse business, financial, or economic conditions will likely
impair the obligor’s capacity or willingness to meet its financial
commitments on the obligation. |
CCC |
An obligation rated ‘CCC’ is currently vulnerable to nonpayment, and is dependent
upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions for the obligor to meet its
financial commitments on the obligation. In the event of adverse business,
financial, or economic conditions, the obligor is not likely to have the
capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation.
|
CC |
An obligation rated ‘CC’ is currently highly vulnerable to nonpayment. The ‘CC’ rating
is used when a default has not yet occurred but S&P Global Ratings expects default to
be a virtual certainty, regardless of the anticipated time to
default. |
C |
An obligation rated ‘C’ is currently highly vulnerable to nonpayment, and the obligation
is expected to have lower relative seniority or lower ultimate recovery compared with
obligations that are rated higher. |
D |
An obligation rated ‘D’ is in default or in breach of an imputed promise. For non-hybrid
capital instruments, the ‘D’ rating category is used when payments on an
obligation are not made on the date due, unless S&P Global Ratings believes
that such payments will be made within five business days in the absence of a
stated grace period or within the earlier of the stated grace period or 30
calendar days. The ‘D’ rating also will be used upon the filing of a
bankruptcy petition or the taking of similar action and where default on an
obligation is a virtual certainty, for example due to automatic stay provisions. A
rating on an obligation is lowered to ‘D’ if it is subject to a distressed debt
restructuring. |
AAA |
HIGHEST CREDIT QUALITY. ‘AAA’ ratings denote the lowest expectation of default
risk. They are assigned only in cases of exceptionally strong capacity for payment of
financial commitments. This capacity is highly unlikely to be adversely affected
by foreseeable events. |
AA |
VERY HIGH CREDIT QUALITY. ‘AA’ ratings denote expectations of very low default
risk. They indicate very strong capacity for payment of financial commitments. This
capacity is not significantly vulnerable to foreseeable events.
|
A |
HIGH CREDIT QUALITY. ‘A’ ratings denote expectations of low default risk. The
capacity for payment of financial commitments is considered strong. This capacity may,
nevertheless, be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic conditions than
is the case for higher ratings. |
BBB |
GOOD CREDIT QUALITY. ‘BBB’ ratings indicate that expectations of default risk are
currently low. The capacity for payment of financial commitments is considered
adequate, but adverse business or economic conditions are more likely to impair this
capacity. |
BB |
SPECULATIVE. ‘BB’ ratings indicate an elevated vulnerability to default risk,
particularly in the event of adverse changes in business or economic conditions over
time; however, business or financial flexibility exists that supports the
servicing of financial commitments. |
B |
HIGHLY SPECULATIVE. ‘B’ ratings indicate that material default risk is present, but a
limited margin of safety remains. Financial commitments are currently being met;
however, capacity for continued payment is vulnerable to deterioration in the business
and economic environment. |
CCC |
SUBSTANTIAL CREDIT RISK. Default is a real possibility. |
CC |
VERY HIGH LEVELS OF CREDIT RISK. Default of some kind appears probable. |
C |
NEAR DEFAULT. A default or default-like process has begun, or the issuer is in standstill, or for a closed funding vehicle, payment capacity is irrevocably impaired.
Conditions that are indicative of a ‘C’ category rating for an issuer
include: |
|
•the issuer has entered into a grace or cure period following
non-payment of a material financial obligation;
•the issuer has entered into a temporary negotiated waiver or standstill agreement following a payment default on a material financial obligation; •the formal announcement by the issuer or their agent of a
distressed debt exchange; •a closed financing vehicle where payment capacity is irrevocably impaired such that it is not expected to pay interest and/or principal in full during the life of the transaction, but where no payment default is imminent. |
RD |
RESTRICTED DEFAULT. ‘RD’ ratings indicate an issuer that in Fitch’s opinion has
experienced: |
|
•an uncured payment default or distressed debt exchange on a
bond, loan or other material financial obligation, but
•has not entered into bankruptcy filings, administration, receivership, liquidation or
other formal winding-up procedure, and
•has not otherwise ceased operating. This would include: •the selective payment default on a specific class or currency
of debt; •the uncured expiry of any applicable grace period, cure period or default forbearance
period following a payment default on a bank loan, capital markets security or other
material financial obligation;
•the extension of multiple waivers or forbearance periods upon a payment default on one or more material financial obligations, either in series or in parallel; ordinary execution of a distressed debt exchange on one or more material financial obligations. |
D |
DEFAULT. ‘D’ ratings indicate an issuer that in Fitch Ratings’ opinion has entered
into bankruptcy filings, administration, receivership, liquidation or other formal
winding-up procedure or that has otherwise ceased business. |
Aaa |
Obligations rated Aaa are judged to be of the highest quality, with minimal risk. |
Aa |
Obligations rated Aa are judged to be of high quality and are subject to very low credit
risk. |
A |
Obligations rated A are judged to be upper-medium-grade and are subject to low credit risk. |
Baa |
Obligations rated Baa are subject to moderate credit risk. They are considered medium- grade and as such may possess certain speculative characteristics. |
Ba |
Obligations rated Ba are judged to have speculative elements and are subject to substantial credit risk. |
B |
Obligations rated B are considered speculative and are subject to high credit risk. |
Caa |
Obligations rated Caa are judged to be of poor standing and are subject to very high credit risk. |
Ca |
Obligations rated Ca are highly speculative and are likely in, or very near, default, with
some prospect of recovery in principal and interest. |
C |
Obligations rated C are the lowest-rated class of bonds and are typically in default, with
little prospect for recovery of principal or interest. |
AAA |
Highest credit quality. The capacity for the payment of financial obligations is exceptionally high and unlikely to be adversely affected by future events. |
AA |
Superior credit quality. The capacity for the payment of financial obligations is considered high. Credit quality differs from AAA only to a small degree. Unlikely to be
significantly vulnerable to future events. |
A |
Good credit quality. The capacity for the payment of financial obligations is substantial,
but of lesser credit quality than AA. May be vulnerable to future events, but qualifying
negative factors are considered manageable. |
BBB |
Adequate credit quality. The capacity for the payment of financial obligations is considered acceptable. May be vulnerable to future events. |
BB |
Speculative, non-investment grade credit quality. The capacity for the payment of financial obligations is uncertain. Vulnerable to future events. |
B |
Highly speculative credit quality. There is a high level of uncertainty as to the capacity
to meet financial obligations. |
CCC/CC/C |
Very highly speculative credit quality. In danger of defaulting on financial obligations.
There is little difference between these three categories, although CC and C ratings are
normally applied to obligations that are seen as highly likely to default, or
subordinated to obligations rated in the CCC to B range. Obligations in respect
of which default has not technically taken place but is considered inevitable
may be rated in the C category. |
D |
When the issuer has filed under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or winding up statute or there is a failure to satisfy an obligation after the exhaustion of grace periods,
a downgrade to D may occur. DBRS Morningstar may also use SD (Selective Default)
in cases where only some securities are impacted, such as the case of a “distressed
exchange.” |
AAA |
An insurer rated ‘AAA’ has extremely strong financial security characteristics. ‘AAA’ is
the highest insurer financial strength rating assigned by S&P Global Ratings.
|
AA |
An insurer rated ‘AA’ has very strong financial security characteristics, differing only
slightly from those rated higher. |
A |
An insurer rated ‘A’ has strong financial security characteristics, but is somewhat more
likely to be affected by adverse business conditions than are insurers with higher
ratings. |
BBB |
An insurer rated ‘BBB’ has good financial security characteristics, but is more likely to
be affected by adverse business conditions than are higher-rated insurers. |
BB,B,CCC, and CC |
An insurer rated ‘BB’ or lower is regarded as having vulnerable characteristics that may
outweigh its strengths, ‘BB’ indicates the least degree of vulnerability within
the range and ‘CC’ the highest. |
BB |
An insurer rated ‘BB’ has marginal financial security characteristics. Positive attributes
exist, but adverse business conditions could lead to insufficient ability to meet financial
commitments. |
B |
An insurer rated ‘B’ has weak financial security characteristics. Adverse business
conditions will likely impair its ability to meet financial commitments. |
CCC |
An insurer rated ‘CCC’ has very weak financial security characteristics, and is
dependent on favorable business conditions to meet financial commitments. |
CC |
An insurer rated ‘CC’ has extremely weak financial security characteristics and is likely
not to meet some of its financial commitments. |
SD and D |
An insurer rated ‘SD’ (selective default) or ‘D’ is in default on one or more of its
insurance policy obligations.
The ‘D’ rating also will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition or the
taking of similar action if payments on a policy obligation are at risk. A
‘D’ rating is assigned when S&P Global Ratings believes that the
default will be a general default and that the obligor will fail to pay
substantially all of its obligations in full in accordance with the policy
terms. An ‘SD’ rating is assigned when S&P Global Ratings
believes that the insurer has selectively defaulted on a specific class of
policies but it will continue to meet its payment obligations on other classes
of obligations. An ‘SD’ includes the completion of a distressed debt
restructuring. Claim denials due to lack of coverage or other legally permitted
defenses are not considered defaults. |
AAA |
EXCEPTIONALLY STRONG. ‘AAA’ IFS Ratings denote the lowest expectation of ceased or interrupted payments. They are assigned only in the case of exceptionally strong capacity to meet policyholder and contract obligations. This capacity is highly
unlikely to be adversely affected by foreseeable events. |
AA |
VERY STRONG. ‘AA’ IFS Ratings denote a very low expectation of ceased or interrupted payments. They indicate very strong capacity to meet policyholder and contract obligations. This capacity is not significantly vulnerable to foreseeable events. |
A |
STRONG. ‘A’ IFS Ratings denote a low expectation of ceased or interrupted payments.
They indicate strong capacity to meet policyholder and contract obligations. This
capacity may, nonetheless, be more vulnerable to changes in circumstances or in
economic conditions than is the case for higher ratings. |
BBB |
GOOD. ‘BBB’ IFS Ratings indicate that there is currently a low expectation of ceased
or interrupted payments. The capacity to meet policyholder and contract obligations on
a timely basis is considered adequate, but adverse changes in circumstances and
economic conditions are more likely to impact this capacity. |
BB |
MODERATELY WEAK. ‘BB’ IFS Ratings indicate that there is an elevated vulnerability to ceased or interrupted payments, particularly as the result of adverse
economic or market changes over time. However, business or financial alternatives may
be available to allow for policyholder and contract obligations to be met in a
timely manner. |
B |
WEAK. ‘B’ IFS Ratings indicate two possible conditions. If obligations are still being
met on a timely basis, there is significant risk that ceased or interrupted payments could
occur in the future, but a limited margin of safety remains. Capacity for
continued timely payments is contingent upon a sustained, favorable business and
economic environment, and favorable market conditions. Alternatively, a
‘B’ IFS Rating is assigned to obligations that have experienced
ceased or interrupted payments, but with the potential for extremely high
recoveries. Such obligations would possess a recovery assessment of
‘RR1’ (Outstanding). |
CCC |
VERY WEAK. ‘CCC’ IFS Ratings indicate two possible conditions. If obligations are
still being met on a timely basis, there is a real possibility that ceased or interrupted
payments could occur in the future. Capacity for continued timely payments is
solely reliant upon a sustained, favorable business and economic environment,
and favorable market conditions. Alternatively, a ‘CCC’ IFS Rating
is assigned to obligations that have experienced ceased or interrupted payments,
and with the potential for average to superior recoveries. Such obligations
would possess a recovery assessment of ‘RR2’ (Superior),
‘RR3’ (Good), and ‘RR4’ (Average). |
CC |
EXTREMELY WEAK. ‘CC’ IFS Ratings indicate two possible conditions. If obligations are still being met on a timely basis, it is probable that ceased or interrupted
payments will occur in the future. Alternatively, a ‘CC’ IFS Rating is assigned to
obligations that have experienced ceased or interrupted payments, with the
potential for average to below-average recoveries. Such obligations would
possess a recovery assessment of ‘RR4’ (Average) or
‘RR5’ (Below Average). |
C |
DISTRESSED. ‘C’ IFS Ratings indicate two possible conditions. If obligations are still
being met on a timely basis, ceased or interrupted payments are imminent. Alternatively,
a ‘C’ IFS Rating is assigned to obligations that have experienced
ceased or interrupted payments, and with the potential for below average to poor
recoveries. Such obligations would possess a recovery assessment of
‘RR5’ (Below Average) or ‘RR6’ (Poor). |
F1 |
Insurers are viewed as having a strong capacity to meet their near-term obligations. When an insurer rated in this rating category is designated with a (+) sign, it is viewed
as having a very strong capacity to meet near-term obligations. |
F2 |
Insurers are viewed as having a good capacity to meet their near-term obligations. |
F3 |
Insurers are viewed as having an adequate capacity to meet their near-term obligations. |
B |
Insurers are viewed as having a weak capacity to meet their near-term obligations. |
C |
Insurers are viewed as having a very weak capacity to meet their near-term obligations. |
RR1 |
OUTSTANDING RECOVERY PROSPECTS GIVEN DEFAULT. ‘RR1’ rated securities have characteristics consistent with securities historically recovering 91%–100% of
current principal and related interest. |
RR2 |
SUPERIOR RECOVERY PROSPECTS GIVEN DEFAULT. ‘RR2’ rated securities have characteristics consistent with securities historically recovering 71%–90% of current
principal and related interest. |
RR3 |
GOOD RECOVERY PROSPECTS GIVEN DEFAULT. ‘RR3’ rated securities have characteristics consistent with securities historically recovering 51%–70% of current
principal and related interest. |
RR4 |
AVERAGE RECOVERY PROSPECTS GIVEN DEFAULT. ‘RR4’ rated securities have characteristics consistent with securities historically recovering 31%–50% of current
principal and related interest. |
RR5 |
BELOW AVERAGE RECOVERY PROSPECTS GIVEN DEFAULT. ‘RR5’ rated securities have characteristics consistent with securities historically recovering 11%–
30% of current principal and related interest. |
RR6 |
POOR RECOVERY PROSPECTS GIVEN DEFAULT. ‘RR6’ rated securities have characteristics consistent with securities historically recovering 0%–10% of current
principal and related interest. |
Aaa |

A |
Insurance companies rated A are judged to be upper-medium grade and are subject to low credit risk. |
Baa |
Insurance companies rated Baa are judged to be medium-grade and subject to moderate credit risk and as such may possess certain speculative characteristics. |
Ba |
Insurance companies rated Ba are judged to be speculative and are subject to substantial
credit risk. |
B |
Insurance companies rated B are considered speculative and are subject to high credit risk. |
Caa |
Insurance companies rated Caa are judged to be speculative of poor standing and are subject to very high credit risk. |
Ca |
Insurance companies rated Ca are highly speculative and are likely in, or very near, default, with some prospect of recovery of principal and interest. |
C |
Insurance companies rated C are the lowest rated and are typically in default, with little
prospect for recovery of principal or interest. |
P-1 |
Ratings of Prime-1 reflect a superior ability to repay short-term debt obligations. |
P-2 |
Ratings of Prime-2 reflect a strong ability to repay short-term debt obligations. |
P-3 |
Ratings of Prime-3 reflect an acceptable ability to repay short-term obligations. |
P-4 |
Issuers (or supporting institutions) rated Not Prime do not fall within any of the Prime
rating categories. |
SP-1 |
Strong capacity to pay principal and interest. An issue determined to possess a very strong capacity to pay debt service is given a plus (+) designation. |
SP-2 |
Satisfactory capacity to pay principal and interest, with some vulnerability to adverse
financial and economic changes over the term of the notes. |
SP-3 |
Speculative capacity to pay principal and interest. |
D |
‘D’ is assigned upon failure to pay the note when due, completion of a distressed
debt restructuring, or the filing of a bankruptcy petition or the taking of
similar action and where default on an obligation is a virtual certainty, for
example, due to automatic stay provisions. |
MIG 1 |
This designation denotes superior credit quality. Excellent protection is afforded by established cash flows, highly reliable liquidity support or demonstrated broad-based access to the market for refinancing. |
MIG 2 |
This designation denotes strong credit quality. Margins of protection are ample, although not as large as in the preceding group. |
MIG 3 |
This designation denotes acceptable credit quality. Liquidity and cash-flow protection
may be narrow, and market access for refinancing is likely to be less
well-established. |
SG |
This designation denotes speculative-grade credit quality. Debt instruments in this category may lack sufficient margins of protection. |
VMIG 1 |
This designation denotes superior credit quality. Excellent protection is afforded by the
superior short-term credit strength of the liquidity provider and structural and legal
protections that ensure the timely payment of purchase price upon
demand. |
VMIG 2 |
This designation denotes strong credit quality. Good protection is afforded by the strong
short-term credit strength of the liquidity provider and structural and legal protections
that ensure the timely payment of purchase price upon demand.
|
VMIG 3 |
This designation denotes acceptable credit quality. Adequate protection is afforded by
the satisfactory short-term credit strength of the liquidity provider and structural and
legal protections that ensure the timely payment of purchase price upon
demand. |
SG |
This designation denotes speculative-grade credit quality. Demand features rated in this
category may be supported by a liquidity provider that does not have a sufficiently
strong short-term rating or may lack the structural or legal protections
necessary to ensure the timely payment of purchase price upon
demand. |
Pfd-1 |
Preferred shares rated Pfd-1 are generally of superior credit quality, and are supported
by entities with strong earnings and balance sheet characteristics. Pfd-1 ratings
generally correspond with issuers with a AAA or AA category reference
point1.
|
Pfd-2 |
Preferred shares rated Pfd-2 are generally of good credit quality. Protection of dividends
and principal is still substantial, but earnings, the balance sheet and coverage ratios are
not as strong as Pfd-1 rated companies. Generally, Pfd-2 ratings correspond with
issuers with an A category or higher reference point. |
Pfd-3 |
Preferred shares rated Pfd-3 are generally of adequate credit quality. While protection of
dividends and principal is still considered acceptable, the issuing entity is more
susceptible to adverse changes in financial and economic conditions, and there
may be other adverse conditions present which detract from debt protection.
Pfd-3 ratings generally correspond with issuers with a BBB category or higher
reference point. |
Pfd-4 |
Preferred shares rated Pfd-4 are generally speculative, where the degree of protection
afforded to dividends and principal is uncertain, particularly during periods of economic
adversity. Issuers with preferred shares rated Pfd-4 generally correspond with
issuers with a BB category or higher reference point. |
Pfd-5 |
Preferred shares rated Pfd-5 are generally highly speculative and the ability of the entity
to maintain timely dividend and principal payments in the future is highly uncertain.
Entities with a Pfd-5 rating generally correspond with issuers with a B category
or higher reference point. Preferred shares rated Pfd-5 often have
characteristics that, if not remedied, may lead to default. |
D |
When the issuer has filed under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or winding up or
the issuer is in default per the legal documents, a downgrade to D may occur. Because
preferred share dividends are only payable when approved, the non-payment of a
preferred share dividend does not necessarily result in a D. DBRS Morningstar
may also use SD (Selective Default) in cases where only some securities are
impacted, such as the case of a “distressed exchange”. See the
Default Definition document posted on the website for more
information. |

Agreement & Acknowledgement
A. | Fees and Expenses. |
| Fees. Bank will present invoices monthly in arrears. Fees included in this Amendment are based upon information provided by Customer, and where necessary, assumptions that Bank believes to be reasonable are applied. All amounts set forth in this Amendment are quoted in U.S. Dollars. |
| Expenses. Bank may charge you for additional out-of-pocket expenses it incurs in the course of providing the Services. Such out-of-pocket expenses may include, but are not limited to, late instruction/settlement fees, local market account opening fees, taxes, issuer fees, legal fees, translation fees, tax reclaim filing fees and/or travel expenses. |
B. | AutoFX. For pricing in respect of foreign exchange activity via Banks custody FX platform, AutoFX, please refer to the separate pricing letter which will be provided to you in the event that Bank provides this service to you. |
C. | FX Conversion. Where costs are incurred in a currency other than your invoice base currency, or costs are based on a valuation of any of your securities in a currency other than your invoice base currency, Bank will perform a foreign exchange calculation to determine such costs payable by you. Such calculation will typically use the WM/Reuters spot rate (Benchmark Rate) for the relevant currency pair published at 4:00pm London time on the last business day of each calendar month for which you will be invoiced. However, the Benchmark Rate used in such calculation may change from time to time and Bank will notify you of such rate change. |
D. | New Markets or Services. To the extent Customer engages in a market or utilizes a service where fees are not stated in this Amendment, Bank will assess a standard rate for the relevant market or service to be determined by Bank, unless an alternative pricing arrangement is agreed in writing between Customer and Bank. The relevant rate will be assessed commencing at the time the market or service is first engaged or utilized. Resultant charge will be detailed within Customers invoice and the Amendment will be deemed to include the rate for such market and/or service. |
E. | Overdrafts. In the event that Bank, in its sole discretion, provides an overdraft to Customer, Bank will charge interest at a rate to be determined by Bank. For foreign overdrafts, including USD held offshore, overdraft rates vary by currency and by day, depending largely on market liquidity and prevailing overnight rates. For domestic overdrafts, the overdraft rate is Effective Fed Funds + 150bps. |
F. | Earnings Credit Rate. In the event that Bank, in its sole discretion, provides an Earnings Credit Rate program to Customer, and the application of the Earnings Credit Rate program results in a positive number or Earnings Credit, the Earnings Credit may be used to offset fees accrued in Customers account during the billing period, up to the amount of the Earnings Credit. Unused Earnings Credits are carried over from month to month during a calendar year and expire at the end of each calendar year. Unused Earnings Credits may not be applied to prior billing periods and cannot be converted into interest. Customer should continuously monitor and adjust balances to ensure optimal use of available Earnings Credits by year-end. |
G. | Customized Products. Any customized technology projects required to meet Customers specific requirements, such as non-standard reporting requirements, system interfaces or enhancements, will be billed to Customer based on the time and materials required to design, develop, test and deliver the project, unless an alternative arrangement is agreed in writing between Customer and Bank. |
H. | Inflation Clause. Bank will increase service fees set forth in the Fee Agreement and any subsequent fee amendments after the anniversary of the effective date of this Fee Agreement and annually thereafter by the U.S. Consumer Price Index (US CPI) rate for the most recent year end. For the avoidance of doubt Bank shall not be obliged to reflect a negative US CPI rate. Service fees that use asset values in the fee calculation would not be subject to the rate increase, nor would expenses including but not limited to Out of Pockets. |

1. | Summary |
This Code of Ethics for JPMorgan Asset Management (JPMAM) (the Code) has been adopted by the registered investment advisers of JPMAM in accordance with Rule 204A-1 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (the Advisers Act). Rule 204A-1 requires an investment adviser registered under Section 203 of the Advisers Act to establish, maintain and enforce a written Code of Ethics.
This Code establishes our standards for ethical conduct which are premised on fundamental principles of openness, integrity, honesty and trust. In addition to the Code, J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. (JPMC) has a firmwide Code of Conduct that applies to all employees globally, including all JPMAM employees. In the event that a difference exists between any of the standards identified in the JPMC Code of Conduct and the Code, the more restrictive provision shall apply.
JPMAM hereby adopts the message from Jamie Dimon that was included in the JPMC Code of Conduct as it embodies JPMAMs ethical standards:
JPMorgan Chase is deeply committed to being straightforward, accountable and honest in all of our business dealings at all times.
The Code of Conduct represents our shared obligation to operate with the highest level of integrity and ethical conduct. We do the right thing even when its not easy. We have zero tolerance for unethical behavior, and we abide by the letter and spirit of the laws and regulations everywhere we do business. Personal accountability and ownership are priorities at our firm.
Our Code of Conduct and firm policies are designed to encourage honest business relationships, enabling us to continually build on our proud heritage. That is why its important to speak up when you see something that doesnt seem right.
We all must do our part to preserve the values that have made JPMorgan Chase the respected company it is today. If you see or suspect illegal or unethical conduct, report it immediately.
Remember, your actions matter.
Additionally, it is the duty of all Supervised Persons to act in the best interests of their clients, place the interests of JPMAM Clients before their own personal interests at all times and to avoid any actual or potential conflicts of interest. Supervised Persons are the officers, directors (or other persons occupying a similar status or performing similar functions or employees of JPMAM) or any other person who provides investment advice on JPMAMs behalf and is subject to JPMAMs supervision or control.
Supervised Persons must comply with applicable Federal Securities Laws1 and promptly report any known or suspected violations of the Code promptly to the Compliance Department or Code of Conduct Reporting Hotline, which shall report any such violation promptly to the Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) of the applicable legal entity, or through the various reporting channels as provided in the How to Report a Violation page of the Code of Conduct Intranet site. Your reporting obligations do not prevent you from reporting to the government or regulators conduct that you believe to be in violation of law and it does not require you to notify JPMAM prior to reporting to the government or regulators. JPMAM strictly prohibits intimidation or retaliation against anyone who makes a good faith report about a known or suspected violation of the Code or any law or regulation.
1 | And/or any other applicable non-US securities laws governing their jurisdiction. |

Compliance with the Code, and other applicable policies and procedures, is a condition of employment. The rules, procedures, reporting and recordkeeping requirements set forth in the Code are hereby adopted and certified as reasonably necessary to prevent Supervised Persons from violating the provisions of the Code and applicable Federal Securities Laws.
The Compliance Department provides a link to this Code and any amendments to all Supervised Persons in their Access Persons Report and requires their attestation of compliance with this Code at least annually. These records are maintained by the Compliance Department as part of its Books and Records as required by the Advisers Act.
Annually, the CCO of each registered investment adviser must review that the Code adequately reflects the advisers fiduciary obligations and those of its Supervised Persons.

4) | The name of the broker, dealer or bank with or through which the transaction was effected; and |
5) | The date the Access Person submits the report to the Compliance Department. |
b) | Timing of Transaction Reports |
Each Access Person must submit a transaction report no later than 30 days after the end of each calendar quarter, which must cover, at a minimum, all transactions during the quarter.

c) | Transaction Reports are not required for accounts maintained at Approved or Preferred Brokers or for accounts which are approved for statement tracking |
d) | Any report with respect to transactions in Reportable Funds. |
5. | Personal Trading Requirements |
Supervised Persons must obtain approval from the Compliance Department before directly or indirectly acquiring Beneficial Ownership in any Reportable Security, including initial public offerings and limited offerings. Given the potential access to Proprietary and Client information that Supervised Persons may have, JPMAM and its Supervised Persons must avoid even the appearance of impropriety with respect to personal trading, which must be oriented toward investment rather than short-term or speculative trading. JPMAMs policies are designed to help prevent and detect violations of securities laws and industry conduct standards and to minimize actual or perceived conflicts of interest that could arise due to personal investing activities.
JPMC Transactions: Preclearance is no longer required for JPMC Securities (common stock, bonds, restricted stock units and employee stock options), except for Window List personnel, who are employees that are in possession, or have the potential to come into possession through the nature of their job duties, with material non-public information (MNPI) on JPMC.
5.1 | Approved Broker Requirement |
All self-directed Associated Accounts must be maintained with a JPMC Approved Broker.
5.2 | Blackout Provisions |
The personal trading and investment activities of Supervised Persons are subject to particular scrutiny due to the fiduciary nature of the business. Specifically, JPMAM must avoid even the appearance that its Supervised Persons conduct personal transactions in a manner that conflicts with the firms investment activities on behalf of Clients. Accordingly, certain Supervised Persons are restricted from conducting personal investment transactions during certain periods (called Blackout Periods), and may be instructed to reverse previously completed personal investment transactions. Additionally, the Compliance Department may restrict the personal trading activity of any Supervised Person if it is determined that such activity has the appearance of a conflict of interest.
These Blackout Periods apply varying levels of restrictions appropriate for different categories of Supervised Persons based upon their level of access to non-public Client or Proprietary information.
5.3 | Minimum Investment Holding Period and Market Timing Prohibition |
Supervised Persons are subject to a minimum holding period, generally 60 days, for all transactions in Reportable Securities. For Reportable Funds, only named Portfolio Managers of such funds are subject to a minimum holding period.
Supervised Persons are not permitted to conduct transactions for the purpose of market timing in any Reportable Security or Reportable Fund. Market timing is defined as an investment strategy using frequent purchases, redemptions, and/or exchanges in an attempt to profit from short-term market movements.

![]() |
5.4 | Trade Reversals and Disciplinary Action |
Transactions by Supervised Persons are subject to reversal due to a conflict (or appearance of a conflict) with the firms fiduciary responsibility or a violation of the firm policy. Such a reversal may be required even for a pre-cleared transaction that results in an inadvertent conflict or a breach of blackout period requirements.
Disciplinary actions resulting from a violation of the Code will be administered in accordance with related JPMAM guidelines governing disciplinary action and escalation. All violations and disciplinary actions will be reported promptly by the Compliance Department to the employees group head and senior management. Violations will be reported quarterly to the affected Funds Board of Directors.
Violations by Supervised Persons of the Code, the JPMC Code of Conduct or any laws or regulations that relate to JPMAMs operation of its business or any failure to cooperate with an internal investigation may result in disciplinary action, up to and including immediate dismissal, including termination of regulatory licensing where applicable.
6. | Books and Records to be maintained by Investment Advisers |
The Compliance Department is responsible for maintaining books and records, including:
a) | A copy of this Code and any other code of ethics adopted by JPMAM pursuant to Rule 204A-1 that is in effect or has been in effect at any time within the past five years; |
b) | A record of any violation of the Code, and any Compliance action taken as a result of that violation; |
c) | A record of all written acknowledgments of the violation for each person who is currently, or was within the past five years a Supervised Person of JPMAM; |
d) | A record of each report made by Access Persons required under the Reporting Requirements; |
e) | A record of the names of persons who are currently, or were within the past five years Access Persons; |
f) | A record of any decision, and the reasons supporting the decision, to approve the acquisition or sale of securities by Supervised Persons under section 6. Pre- approval records of certain investments will be maintained for at least five years after the end of the fiscal year in which the approval is granted; and |
g) | Any other such record as may be required under the Code. |
7. | Privacy |
Supervised Persons have a responsibility to protect the confidentiality of information related to Clients. This responsibility may be imposed by law, may arise out of agreements with Clients, or may be based on policies or practices adopted by the firm. Certain jurisdictions have regulations relating specifically to the privacy of individuals and/or business and institutional customers. Various business units and geographic areas within JPMC have internal policies regarding customer privacy.
The restriction on disclosing confidential information is not intended to prevent Supervised Persons from reporting to the government or a regulator any conduct Supervised Persons believe to be in violation of the law, or from responding truthfully to questions or requests from the government, a regulator or in a court of law.

![]() |
8. | Anti-Corruption |
It is the policy of JPMC to comply with the anti-corruption laws that apply to the firms operations (and investments where the firm is deemed to have control), which laws include the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), the United Kingdom Bribery Act of 2010 (UKBA), as well as anti-corruption laws and regulations of other countries in which the firm conducts business. We must never compromise our reputation by engaging in, or appearing to engage in, bribery or any form of corruption. Bribery and corruption are crimes with potentially severe penalties to JPMC and its employees and directors. The firm has zero tolerance for such activity.
9. | Conflicts of Interest |
The following is a summary of commonly identified employee conflicts of interest:
9.1 | Trading in Securities of Clients |
Supervised Persons shall not transact in any securities of a Client with which the Supervised Person has or recently had significant dealings or responsibility on behalf of JPMAM if such investment could be perceived as effected based on confidential information, including MNPI.
9.2 | Trading in Securities of Suppliers |
Supervised Persons in possession of information regarding, or directly involved in negotiating, a contract material to a supplier of JPMAM may not invest in the securities of such supplier. If you own the securities of a company with which we are dealing and you are asked to represent JPMorgan Chase in such dealings you must:
a) | Disclose this fact to your department head and the Compliance Department; and |
b) | Obtain prior approval from the Compliance Department before selling such securities. |
9.3 | Pre-clearance Procedures for Value-Added Investors |
Prior to any telephone calls, video, and in-person meetings between a Portfolio Manager, or employee arranging the meeting, and a Value-Added Investor who is meeting to discuss his/her personal investment (or prospective investment) in the JPMAM Private Investment Fund managed by the Portfolio Manager, the Portfolio Manager must obtain pre-clearance from Compliance. In order to obtain pre-clearance approval, the following information must be provided to Compliance prior to the meeting:
a) | Date and place of meeting; |
b) | Name of Value-Added Investor, their employer, and job title; |
c) | Name of private fund the Value-Added Investor is invested in (or may invest in); |
d) | Names of all J.P. Morgan employees in attendance at the meeting and job titles; |

Compliance will review the pre-clearance request, respond via email and will ensure that appropriate controls are instituted.

Supervised Persons may not give or receive anything of value, directly or indirectly, to influence improper action or obtain an improper advantage. Furthermore, the giving and receiving of gifts, including entertainment and hospitality, to or from persons who do or seek to do business with JPMAM have the potential to create actual conflicts or the appearance of conflicts, and may negatively impact JPMAM.
Gifts and entertainment can take many forms, including but not limited to: goods or services for which employees are not required to pay the retail or usual and customary cost; meals or refreshments; tickets to entertainment or sporting events; the use of a residence, vacation home or other accommodation; travel expenses; or charitable contributions or organization sponsorships.

Entertainment
Entertainment includes business-related activities at which a host and guest are both present (e.g., meals, refreshments, golf games, sporting events, or other leisure and entertainment). Entertainment is considered a prohibited gift unless both the employee and business contact are present and the employees participation is related to his or her position and duties within JPMAM. Spouses, family members and personal acquaintances should not participate in entertainment activities unless such participation is customary under the circumstances.
Supervised Persons may act as a host for business entertainment to clients and prospects if such entertainment is: (1) business related; (2) is not prohibited by law; and (3) in an amount that is reasonable and customary. Frequent and/or lavish business entertainment is prohibited.

If any material change in relevant circumstances occurs, Supervised Persons must seek clearance for a previously approved activity. A material change may arise from a change in your job or association with JPMAM or in your role with respect to that activity or organization. JPMAM employees are required to be continually alert to any real or apparent conflicts of interest with respect to investment management activities and promptly disclose any such conflicts to their manager and Compliance. Employees must also notify Compliance when any approved outside interest terminates.
