The Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) has been assigned a long-term foreign currency issuer rating of Aaa and a short-term foreign currency issuer rating of Prime-1, by Moody’s Investors Service. The rating outlook is stable.

The rating reflects Moody’s assessment of AIIB’s current and future creditworthiness, as it ramps up its operations over the next 5-10 years.

The Aaa rating takes into account the strength of AIIB's governance frameworks, including its policies on risk management, capital adequacy and liquidity, says Moody’s.

Moody’s expect AIIB's liquidity position to be as strong as that of other highly rated multilateral development banks.
