Fitch Ratings Indonesia has assigned a 'AA-(idn)' rating on PT BFI Finance Indonesia Tbk's (AA-(idn)/Stable) fourth tranche of bonds issued under its fifth bond programme.

The tranche consists of:

Series A: IDR590 billion of 6.10% 370-day bonds due April 2024;

Series B: IDR385 billion of 7.00% two-year bonds due April 2025; and

Series C: IDR625 billion of 7.15% three-year bonds due April 2026.

'AA' National Long-Term Ratings denote expectations of a very low level of default risk relative to other issuers or obligations in the same country or monetary union. The default risk inherent differs only slightly from that of the country's highest rated issuers or obligations.

Key Rating Drivers

The bonds are rated at the same level as BFI's National Long-Term Rating, in accordance with Fitch's criteria, as they represent BFI's direct obligations and rank pari passu with its other obligations in the same debt class.

The obligations are 50% secured against the company's receivables as is common for bonds issued by BFI, but we do not view this as providing credit enhancement, as per Fitch's criteria for entities in Indonesia.

BFI's National Long-Term Rating is driven by its standalone profile. For more details, see 'Fitch Upgrades Indonesia's BFI Finance to 'AA-(idn)'; Outlook Stable', published 2 March 2023.

Rating Sensitivities

A downgrade of BFI's National Long-Term Rating would lead to similar action on the ratings of its senior bond programme and issuance.

Factors that could, individually or collectively, lead to positive rating action/upgrade:

An upgrade of BFI's National Long-Term Rating would result in corresponding action on its senior bond programme and issuance ratings.
