Stable Outlook (Revised January 2013)
January 2013: Fitch raised to BB-
from B+; outlook revised to stable
December 2012: Moody’s downgraded BPOP by two notches to B1; stable outlook
assigned
April 2012: Moody’s placing most of the PR banks under review with the possibility
of
downgrades, due to the state of the Puerto Rico economy
January 2012:  Fitch raised BPOPs outlook to positive
December 2011: S&P raised its ratings on BPPR to BB from BB-
and changed outlook to
stable given revised bank criteria to Regional banks
