Despite the support packages offered by the Italian government, the European Union and the European Central Bank, we expect a material increase in FCA Bank's cost of risk and a declining profitability. The outlook on FCA Bank's long-term deposit rating is stable as the rating is constrained by Italy's Baa3 sovereign debt rating. Therefore, FCA Bank's deposits are unlikely to be downgraded in the event of a lowering of the Adjusted BCA as they would then benefit from one notch of LGF uplift. Factors that could lead to an upgrade An upgrade of FCA Bank's ratings is unlikely, given the negative outlook on the long-term issuer rating and the constraint on the deposit ratings arising from Italy's government bond rating of Baa3. Under our Banks methodology, banks' ratings do not typically exceed the related sovereign bond rating by more than two notches, reflecting our view that the expected loss of rated bank instruments is unlikely to be significantly lower than that of the sovereign's own debt. Factors that could lead to a downgrade A downgrade of FCA Bank's issuer rating would likely be driven by a lower BCA or a lower Adjusted BCA, which could be prompted by a material decline in solvency, liquidity or lower parental support. A downgrade of the issuer rating could also be triggered by a higher loss given failure on senior unsecured liabilities. A downgrade of Italy's sovereign rating to Ba1 would also lead to a downgrade of FCA Bank's deposit and issuer ratings. This publication does not announce a credit rating action.

Sources: Moody's Investors Service and company filings Profile FCA Bank S.p.A. (FCA Bank) is a captive finance company that supports vehicle sales in selected European countries by its manufacturer shareholder FCA and also by non-FCA brands such as Ferrari, Jaguar, Land Rover, Erwin Hymer, Morgan and Aston Martin. Furthermore, in 2018, FCA Bank ventured into the motorcycle segment through agreements with Harley Davidson and in 2020 with Lotus and Groupe Pilote. The bank operates in 17 European countries and Morocco, either directly or through branches and subsidiaries, and provides services mainly through the dealership networks of the respective manufacturers. The company is a 50:50 joint venture between Credit Agricole Consumer Finance SA, a subsidiary of CASA, and FCA Italy S.p.A., a subsidiary of FCA. For more information, please see FCA Bank's Company Profile. Detailed credit considerations FCA Bank’s BCA is strained by the pandemic FCA Bank's market is constrained by the difficult environment in the global automotive industry, where we expect global light vehicle sales to contract by 19% in 2020 and recover by 9% in 2021 and 7% in 2022. A full recovery to pre-downturn levels will, however, take until the middle of the decade. Consequently, FCA Bank's metrics, in particular profitability and also asset quality, will likely be under pressure in the next 12 months. Stock of problem loans to increase because of the pandemic in FCA Bank's European markets FCA Bank’s asset risk is low, indicated by our a3 score, one notch below the Macro-Adjusted score of a2 to reflect our view that the bank's problem loan ratio will deteriorate because of the pandemic. The pandemic has had a significant impact on the European economies, affecting both corporates and individuals, with more acute consequences for the important SME sector. FCA Bank's significant exposure to SMEs makes the bank's credit profile sensitive to such adverse market conditions. To some extent, the economic consequences of the pandemic will be mitigated by the supporting measures taken by the Italian government and the European Union, alongside the support provided by the European Central Bank. The Italian government published law decrees on 17 March 2020 and 8 April 20203, which include, inter alia, a six-month bank loan moratorium for companies under specific conditions and a large state guarantee programme on new loans of up to €340 billion.

In accordance with our bank rating methodology, we do not impose any mechanistic sovereign cap, although sovereign risk is taken into account when assessing individual issuers. In FCAB’s case, we consider that the bank and the sovereign should be decorrelated due to FCAB’s geographic diversification and lack of exposure to Italian domestic sovereign risk. FCAB has a well-tested business model, with higher returns than for traditional, lower-risk banking activities.
