Laurentian Bank of Canada (LB-T) is facing potential credit rating downgrades due to escalating operational and leadership issues, according to Gabriel Dechaine from National Bank of Canada (OTC:). Dechaine recently downgraded his rating for the bank to underperform for the second time in just over a month, following an unsuccessful strategic review that did not find a buyer for the bank. The bank’s recent challenges include an IT outage and the abrupt departure of its CEO.<\/p>\n

Credit rating agencies S&P Global Ratings and DBRS Morningstar are closely monitoring the situation at Laurentian Bank. S&P has already revised the bank’s outlook from stable to negative, while DBRS is currently reviewing Laurentian’s rating. These developments have led to rising wholesale funding costs for the bank.<\/p>\n

Despite these setbacks, a spokesperson for Laurentian Bank has assured stakeholders of the bank’s robust capital and liquidity levels. However, this did not prevent the bank’s stock from falling 3.6% on Tuesday, making it the worst performer on the S&P\/TSX Composite Index.<\/p>\n

In response to these challenges, Dechaine reduced his price target for Laurentian from C$32 to C$27, mirroring similar actions by Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce and Royal Bank of Canada after the September review.<\/p>\n
