Credit Ratings Action by Fitch Ratings

 

Shareholders and noteholders are referred to the Fitch Ratings (Fitch) press release on 3 July 2026 where Fitch announced a revision to Investec Limited's and Investec Bank Limited's National Long-Term Ratings to 'AAA(zaf)' from 'AA+(zaf)' and affirmed the National Short-Term Ratings at 'F1+(zaf)'.

 

The revision of the National Long-Term Ratings reflects the recalibration of Fitch's National Ratings Correspondence Table for South Africa. The recalibration follows the recent upgrade of South Africa's Long-Term Local-Currency Issuer Default Rating (IDR) to 'BB' from 'BB-' and the upgrade of Investec Limited's and Investec Bank Limited's Long-Term Local-Currency IDRs to 'BB-'. The Outlook remains Stable.
