Industry BANKING
Rating Agency AGUSTO & CO. LIMITED, NIGERIA
The rating assigned to FSDH Merchant Bank Limited (‘FSDH or the Bank’) is underpinned by good capitalization, good liquidity, good profitability and an experienced management team. FSDH’s profitability was considerably strengthened because of lower funding cost, an improvement in asset quality and moderated operating expenses despite inflationary pressures. Profit before taxation increased by 34.4% to N5.2billion, the highest in the bank’s history. The rating is however constrained by the fragile state of the Nigerian economy.
