 Moodys Investors Service has assigned an Aa2 rating to the proposed senior unsecured USD notes to be issued by Korea East-West Power Co., Ltd. EWP, Aa2 stable. The Aa2 rating reflects EWPs close operational and financial links with its parent, Korea Electric Power Corporation, and the companys strategic importance to Koreas economy as a major power generator, says Mic Kang, a Moodys Vice President and Senior Credit Officer. Moodys expects that both Korea Electric Power Corporation KEPCO, Aa2 stable and the Government of Korea Aa2 stable will take strong measures, if needed, to contain any material widespread disruptions to the operations of KEPCOs six power generation companies gencos, including EWP.
