TBC Bank Group PLC announces that on 10 December 2020, Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's") has upgraded JSC TBC Bank's ("TBC Bank") foreign-currency deposit rating to Ba2 from Ba3, with a stable outlook.

As a result of the methodology change, FC ceilings as applied to FC deposits were raised in Georgia, resulting in upgrades of FC deposit rating of JSC TBC Bank.
