Hamburg (ots) - Das Geschäftsrisiko der GEFA BANK schätzt die Agentur aufgrund

ihrer guten Marktposition als einer der führenden Objekt- und Absatzfinanzierer

in Deutschland sowie der hohen Branchen- und Objektkompetenz als moderat bis

leicht erhöht ein. Zu den maßgebenden Risikotreibern gehören aus Sicht der

Ratingagentur die erhöhte Konjunktursensivität, hohe Wettbewerbsintensität,

strukturelle Veränderungen des Marktumfeldes sowie ein hoher Anteil von

Nutzfahrzeugfinanzierungen am Kreditportfolio. Positiv bewertet die Agentur die

angesichts des Strukturwandels laufende Anpassung und Weiterentwicklung der

strategischen Ausrichtung. Die GEFA BANK verfügt nach Einschätzung der Agentur

über ein moderates Finanzrisiko . Ausschlaggebend sind hierfür insbesondere die

angemessene Kapitalstruktur, die hohe Risikotragfähigkeit, der gute Zugang zu

Fremdfinanzierungsmittel sowie die gute finanzielle Flexibilität.

Objektfinanzierungen in Deutschland. Die GEFA BANK GmbH erwirtschaftete im
