The ratings for the senior notes are on a par with Global's Issuer Default Ratings (IDR) of Long-term IDR 'BBB' and Short-term IDR 'F3' and, if these ratings should change, then the ratings assigned to the programme as well as the ratings assigned to any notes issued under the programme may also change.
The ratings are for the general programme and it cannot be assumed that each individual issue under the programme carries the applicable programme rating.
Global's other ratings are Individual 'C', Support '5' and Support Rating Floor 'No Floor'. Global has a Stable Outlook.
Global was established in Kuwait in 1998 and listed on the Kuwaiti stock exchange in 2003. It is also listed in Bahrain and Dubai, and has offices and associates throughout the Middle East, North Africa, Pakistan, India and Hong Kong. Global's activities include corporate finance, private equity, investment funds, brokerage and research, focusing on local, regional and international clients, and investment opportunities, primarily in the Gulf and elsewhere in the Middle East.
