"London, 15 September 2020 -- Moody's Investors Service has today downgraded (1) the foreign currency long-term deposit ratings of 12 banks in Turkey; (2) the long-term counterparty risk ratings (CRR) and the long-term counterparty risk assessments (CRA) of six banks; and (3) the long-term senior unsecured rating of one bank by one notch and the long-term foreign currency CRR of three banks by two notches. The standalone baseline credit assessments (BCAs) and other ratings of these banks and of the other four Turkish banks rated by Moody's are unaffected by this rating action."

[...]

"The downgrades on the 13 impacted banks are driven by Moody's downgrade, on 11 September 2020, of the Government of Turkey's bond rating to B2 with negative outlook from B1 with negative outlook. The downgrade of Turkey's sovereign rating resulted in the lowering of the ceilings for foreign currency deposits to Caa1 from B3 and for foreign currency bonds to B2 from B1. For further information on the sovereign rating action, please refer to Moody's press release published on 11 September 2020: Moody's downgrades Turkey's ratings to B2 and maintains negative outlook"
