Credit ratings
National Counties is the 11th largest building society in the UK with total assets of £2.3bn. Whilst relatively active in the wholesale money market, it does not presently engage in the large ticket funding transactions that would warrant a formal credit rating.
A key indicator of the Group's capital strength is its Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio. At 31 December 2021 this stood at 17.9%.
