S&P Anchor Rating Matrix
In December 2017, Aroundtown's ("AT") credit rating was upgraded to 'BBB+' by Standard and Poor’s Rating Services ("S&P"). The rating increase followed the 'BBB' rating assigned by S&P in June 2016, acknowledging Aroundtown’s increased scale and scope, enhanced diversification and the continuously strong like-for-like rental income growth. Further, S&P acknowledged Aroundtown's well balanced portfolio across multiple asset types and regions with no dependency on a single tenant, asset type or region, underlining the company's strong business risk profile.
