Long term external debt and preference shares
Debt ratings are assigned to specific instruments and represent the issuer's ability to meet financial commitments in accordance with the terms of that instrument. Subordinated debt has equity-like characteristics and is therefore eligible to be recognised as capital by regulators and rating agencies. The lower ratings reflect this subordination.
