## What Happened
Moody’s Ratings has affirmed [Rawbank](/rawbank) S.A.’s B3 long-term deposit ratings and maintained a stable outlook, according to a rating action dated August 14, 2026.

A deposit rating is Moody’s view of a bank’s ability to repay customer deposits over time. It is a credit risk signal that can influence how investors, institutions, and corporate treasuries assess a bank.

B3 is a non-investment grade rating. In plain terms, it suggests higher risk than investment grade banks, and it can translate into higher borrowing costs when the bank raises money from wholesale markets.

Moody’s also assigns an outlook, stable in this case. An outlook is a forward-looking indicator. It signals whether the rating is more likely to go up, go down, or stay the same over the medium term.

## Why It Matters
For banks, ratings affect access to funding and the price of that funding. If a bank can raise capital at a lower cost, it may have more room to extend credit to businesses and households. If funding is costly, banks may tighten lending or price loans higher.

In markets where fintech and bank partnerships are growing, a stable rating outlook can also help with counterparties. These are the institutions that provide lines of credit, clearing services, or cross-border settlement support.

For operators and founders in the DRC, a Moody’s affirmation does not change day-to-day product features. But it can shape the environment for larger credit lines, treasury services, and longer-term financing that many companies depend on for growth.
