Anglian Water Services Financing Plc (the «Company») announces that it has
notified S&P Global Rating Europe Limited («S&P») of its intention to
discontinue the engagement of S&P as one of its external credit rating agencies
providing ratings coverage.
The intention to discontinue the ratings coverage from S&P is, and remains,
subject to the successful redemption in full of the £200,000,000 6.625 per cent.
Guaranteed Bonds due 2029 (ISIN: XS0093312550) issued by the Company in
accordance with their terms and conditions (the «Bonds»), which include a
requirement to maintain rating coverage from S&P for so long as the Bonds are
outstanding.
At the date of this announcement, S&P provides ratings coverage in respect of
the Company’s class A secured debt at BBB (stable).
The proposed discontinuance follows an internal review of the resource demands
involved in supporting a third rating. The Company will continue to maintain its
ratings coverage from Fitch Ratings Ltd and Moody’s Investor Services Limited,
which are A- (stable) and Baa1 (stable), respectively.
Subject to the redemption in full of the Bonds, the Company will work with S&P
to manage an orderly discontinuance of its ratings coverage. The existing S&P
rating will remain in place until it is formally withdrawn by S&P.
The proposed discontinuance of ratings coverage from S&P is not expected to have
any impact on the Company’s financing arrangements, regulatory commitments or
ongoing engagement with debt investors.

Comparto con muchos la visión de que la universidad, salgo contadas excepciones va muy por detrás del mundo real, con una actitud muy reactiva.
Hace años que salà de ella, aunque continúo ligado, intentando terminar otros estudios que hace tiempo comence (soy un ferviente entusiasta de estar continuamente formándome… aunque solamente sea como intención, y el estar matriculado en alguna asignatura de una 2ª carrera me ayuda en ocasiones a autoexigirme un plus adicional).
Lo penoso es que solamente mantengo relación, muy de vez en cuando, con 2 profesores. Los únicos de los que guardo un buen recuerdo. Y casualidad esta que no son profesionales de la docencia, sino profesionales de la industria privada que están en la docencia por convicción e ilusión personal. Cuánto tiene que aprender la universidad de muchas escuelas de negocios…
