LLB now with Aa1 deposit rating from Moody's

Vaduz, 22 April 2026. Moody’s has upgraded the deposit rating of Liechtensteinische Landesbank AG (LLB) from Aa2 to Aa1, placing LLB in the elite tier of banks rated by Moody’s globally. This rating reflects exceptional financial stability, security and very low default risks.

With its deposit rating assessment, the rating agency Moody's reflects LLB’s ongoing strong financial position, which is based on a robust and broadly diversified business model, strong capitalisation (Tier 1 ratio: 19.0 %) and LLB’s solid liquidity profile, as evidenced by liquidity metrics that are well above regulatory minimum requirements.

The re-assessment by Moody's was prompted by regulatory adjustments in the EU regarding the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive (BRRD) and the Deposit Guarantee Schemes Directive (DGSD).

Commenting on the re-assessment, Group CEO Christoph Reich said: "The Aa1 deposit rating – the second-highest rating of all – fills us with great pleasure and pride. It is an important signal and a strong sign of trust. It confirms the strength of our capital structure and our focus on financial stability and security. This recognition underlines our position as one of the world's most trustworthy banks."
