London, 18 September 2012 - Moody's Investors Service has today assigned
provisional (P)Baa3 long-term foreign currency debt rating to the RM1.5
billion (approximately USD500 million) Islamic MTN programme of Development
Bank of Kazakhstan and Baa3 senior unsecured debt rating to its RM240
million (approximately USD80 million) first drawdown under this programme.
The outlook on foreign currency debt rating is stable.
RATINGS RATIONALE
Under this Islamic MTN programme, Development Bank of Kazakhstan will issue
sukuk certificates to investors, the proceeds of which will be used to buy
and then sell commodities in order to acquire receivables under Murabaha
contracts. It is noted that no asset risk passed on to investors and all
payment obligations will ultimately be funded directly from the Development
Bank of Kazakhstan.
The (P)Baa3 long-term foreign currency debt rating assigned to the RM1.5
billion Islamic MTN programme and Baa3 senior unsecured debt rating to its
RM240 million first drawdown under this programme are in line with
Development Bank of Kazakhstan's global foreign currency issuer rating of
Baa3. Moody's notes that Development Bank of Kazakhstan's obligations to
make payments under the senior unsecured sukuk issue will rank - at all
times - at least pari-passu with the claims of all other unsecured and
unsubordinated creditors of the bank, except for those claims that are
preferred by any relevant law. The ratings outlook is stable, reflecting
the stable rating outlook for Development Bank of Kazakhstan.
While the provisional rating indicates the rating likely to be assigned to
notes issued from the programme, the rating assigned to future notes could
differ from the provisional program rating if the final terms of the note
have other structural features that warrant a different rating or that
prevent Moody's from assigning a rating to the note. The assignment of any
such ratings is subject to Moody's satisfactory review of the terms and
conditions set forth in the final prospectuses, supplements or offering
memorandums of the notes to be issued.
Under the transaction structure, Development Bank of Kazakhstan will use the
proceeds from the issuance of each certificate to purchase and immediately
sell qualifying commodities via Bursa Suq al-Sila (Malaysia) - a commodities
trading platform with crude palm oil as its underlying asset. In exchange,
Development Bank of Kazakhstan will agree to pay investors a deferred payment
price payable at the dissolution date (i.e. maturity) of the notes. The
deferred payment price is set equal to the initial purchase amount of the
commodities, together with any fees, taxes, costs or expenses incurred by
the issuer and applicable to its purchase of the commodities, and an annual
profit amount as set forth in the final terms of each note.
Moody's ratings do not express any opinion on the programme or sukuk
structure's compliance with Shari'ah principles but notes that all transaction
parties have agreed and confirmed Shari'ah compliance at issuance and have
agreed not to raise any objections in future. Investors should seek guidance
from their own Shari'ah advisers on this matter.
The programme and all underlying legal agreements are governed by Malaysian
law. We note that according to transaction counsel, decisions of Malaysian
courts will not be enforceable in Kazakhstan due to absence of corresponding
bilateral treaty between Kazakhstan and Malaysia on the mutual enforcement of
court judgments. However, all parties upon dispute agree to submit to
arbitration, with any arbitration awards issued under Malaysian law being
generally recognised and enforceable in Kazakhstan. As such, according to
counsel, the aforementioned lack of enforceability of judgements issued by
Malaysian courts does not affect the enforceability of arbitration awards
issued under Malaysian law.
The principal methodology used in this rating was Moody's Consolidated Global
Bank Rating Methodology published in June 2012. Please see the Credit Policy
page on www.moodys.com for a copy of this methodology.
Headquartered in Astana, Kazakhstan, Development Bank of Kazakhstan
reported total assets of KZT890 billion (USD6 billion) and total equity of
KZT211 billion (USD1.4 billion) under audited IFRS as at YE2011.
