Ratings agency Moody's Investor Services said Wednesday that it has downgraded the long-term debt ratings of French banks Credit Agricole SA and Societe Generale SA. Credit Agricole's bank financial strength rating was also cut to C from C+, with Moody's saying that the new rating is "more consistent with the bank's sizeable exposures to the Greek economy." Credit Agricole's long-term debt and deposit rating was downgraded one notch to Aa2 from Aa1, while Societe Generale's long-term debt and deposit rating was cut by one notch to Aa3 from Aa2, Moody's said.
