AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · STRATS(SM) Trust for Procter & Gamble Securities, Series 2006-1 (GJR)

GJR: S&P withdraws rating on STRATS Procter & Gamble certificates, 2006-1 series

Negative Impact 3 of 5 legal/regulatory Written later

Standard & Poor's withdrew its rating on the Floating Rate Structured Repackaged Asset-Backed Trust Securities issued by the STRATS Trust for Procter & Gamble Securities, Series 2006-1, after updating its methodology for repackaged securities. The filing says the withdrawal may hurt the secondary market price and liquidity of the certificates, because many institutional investors must hold rated securities and may sell.

Key points

  • S&P announced the rating methodology update on October 18, 2012, effective immediately
  • S&P announced the rating withdrawal on October 25, 2012, citing possible payment shortfalls tied to redemption and swap termination
  • The withdrawal is not a termination event under the certificates or the Swap Agreement
  • S&P's ratings on the underlying securities and the Swap Counterparty are not affected
